Thank goodness for the kitchen, because the dining area was about as cozy as dining with a herd of hippogriffs.

I had a fantastic stay at this cottage! The location is perfect, right across from the train station, making it ideal for train enthusiasts like myself.

Additionally, there are plenty of national trust and English heritage places nearby to visit, as well as the national bird of prey centre, which had brilliant fly past demos. Another great attraction in the area is the Eden camp military centre, which is a good day out for all ages.

Everything is what I need and want.

We had a fabulous stay at Hogwarts Cottage, which is conveniently located near the charming steam trains of Pickering.

The location of the cottage was excellent, with Pickering Railway Station just across the road. This made it convenient for exploring nearby attractions such as the national bird of prey center and Eden Camp military center. the comfortable beds and clean fresh towels provided a pleasant stay.

The cleanliness of the cottage left much to be desired, with dirty crockery, cutlery, and glassware in the kitchen.

Hogwarts Cottage is a fantastic place for a family getaway, especially if you love fishing! The beautiful nearby river offers plenty of opportunities for casting a line and enjoying some quality time together. The kids had a blast trying their luck and we even managed to catch a few fish to cook up for dinner. It was a memorable experience that brought us closer as a family.

In my wife's opinion, it would have been great if there were more outdoor activities for the children. While the fishing was great, my children wanted to explore more and engage in different outdoor adventures.

Excellent location near shops, pubs, and steam trains. Comfy beds and spacious rooms. Good central heating and hot water. Convenient for guests with disabilities.

Felt like home, nothing too much trouble.
