Enjoy the Yorkshire Coast and Wolds with Heritage Escapes
Our luxury self-catering holiday cottages at High Barn and Field House are located on the northern edge of Bridlington on the East Yorkshire coast, within easy reach of Scarborough and York.
No matter which of our twelve award-winning holiday cottages you choose, each makes an ideal choice for a perfect self-catering cottage holiday in Yorkshire. We're blessed by being in a lovely rural location, very close to the sea, and only a stone's throw from the spectacular scenery of Flamborough Head’s cliffs and caves, plus Bridlington's safe, sandy beaches. North Bay is a popular family choice near to all the amenities, whilst South Bay offers miles of golden sands. The Bridlington Spa Complex and Bridlington Harbour are neatly sandwiched between the two.
Our farm location gives you the freedom to take country walks from your door, opening up super sea views over Bridlington Bay and great wildlife and bird-watching opportunities. Wander along the road to Bempton RSPB Bird Reserve, famous for puffins and gannets - it will amaze you and it’s on our doorstep!
We’re situated close to The East Yorkshire Wolds, The North Yorkshire Moors, Scarborough, Whitby, York, The Wolds Way and, of course, our own part of the Yorkshire coast around Bridlington, Bempton Cliffs and Flamborough Head. Take a journey on the North Yorkshire Moors Steam Railway, explore the Wolds Way, or potter around the brilliant Museum Quarter and The Deep in Hull.
Holiday with us and appreciate nature close at hand. There is an abundance of wildlife in our fields - a rich habitat for hare, deer, skylarks, owls, partridge and wildflowers. Our two wildlife ponds are populated with frogs, newts, dragonflies, fish and water-lilies. We have several farm walks for you to follow. It's possible to cover about five miles without leaving the farm or retracing your steps!
In winter, if you are lucky, you will see seals close to the shores. It is now possible to watch a seal colony living at the foot of the nearby
cliffs at Flamborough Lighthouse. An inlet, which was formerly accessible from
the clifftop, is now unreachable and so the seals have found a perfect home Dolphins
have become regular visitors to Bridlington North Bay in the summer months.
Whales are regularly spotted a little further north near Whitby in the late
summer. The North Sea around the headland is a constant source of interest and
is teeming with wildlife.
