Your unique front-row view of North Yorkshire Moors steam trains. Coast 20 Mins

Located in Newbridge, Pickering. This former railway workers cottage will appeal to steam railway enthusiasts, walkers and families alike. Located in a quiet hamlet, surrounded by fields & footpaths at the gateway to the North Yorkshire Moors National Park, but within easy walking distance of Pickering, with its supermarkets, traditional pubs and wide choice of restaurants. The cottage gives an exclusive front-row seat of the majestic steam locomotives of the NYMR heritage railway, which proceed at "snail's pace" past the cottage and provide great entertainment for children, young & old! Please note, this is a private line, the patio is fully fenced & gated, and steam trains run extremely slowly from approx. 9am to 5pm, during tourist season. The cottage is double-glazed, gas central heating & constant hot water, fully equipped kitchen & lounge/diner with satellite TV, open fire & additional sofa-bed. 2 bedrooms (1 double/twin & 1 with adult bunks). Parking for 2 vehicles & private patio with BBQ. No pets.

Very relaxing
A lovely little cottage that has everything you need including safe off road parking. Great position for watching the trains and, of course, waving at everyone. Well placed for visiting the coast and moors. The most comfortable bed i have ever slept in at a holiday let! Nice welcome pack of goodies on arrival, thank you. Would hope to visit again.

Trainspotting in Pickering
Excellent location for watching the trains. Cottage well kitted out everything you would need. Just one criticism, not sure why dogs are not allowed. Everywhere in Pickering is dog friendly, even the cottage next door. Graeme & Helen

Beautiful location, can’t wait to back in the summer time,
Railway cottage, we were unfortunate not to have the trains, but all the surroundings were full of being right on the railway line, close to the town of Pickering, with lovely restaurants, and all the east coast easily accessible, we all had a lovely holiday in North Yorkshire,. The cottage had all we needed, with a log fire and a cosy feeling. Would recommend it

Spiritual renewal for steam fans
Great everything, thoroughly enjoyed our stay, social distancing or no social distancing. NYMR ran four services a day (eight including the return) which all ran so close you could almost hold a conversation with the driver & fireman. Lovely location, aspect and accommodation, will definitely return.
