Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking. Please note: There are 2 steps in the garden.. Located just outside Royston, this charming retreat is tucked away within the secluded garden of the Old Station House. The property comfortably sleeps five guests across three rooms, two doubles and one cosy single. The master suite features its own private ensuite toilet, while a main bathroom with a walk-in cubicle shower serves the rest of the household. Designed for ultimate relaxation, the living space flows outward to a private patio where a luxury hot tub awaits. Positioned beside a gentle natural pond and a trickling stream, it offers the perfect vantage point to soak in the garden view and lose yourself in the peaceful sounds of the surrounding wildlife.

    Stepping beyond the garden, you are perfectly placed to explore some of Yorkshire’s finest natural landscapes. Literally right next door is Rabbit Ings Country Park; once a colliery, it has been transformed into a sprawling haven of wetlands and woodlands, featuring a network of cycle tracks and footpaths perfect for an afternoon trek. If you’re looking to vary your scenery, a short drive connects you to a "park crawl" of local gems. Walton Country Park offers stunning wildflower meadows and quiet lakes, while Anglers Country Park provides a peaceful circular walk around a central lake, and Pugneys Country Park is ideal for those who enjoy lakeside paths and birdwatching from the hides.

    For those drawn to heritage and architecture, the area is steeped in history. The magnificent Nostell Priory, a National Trust treasure, is nearby, offering opulent interiors and world-renowned Chippendale furniture set within sprawling parklands. Similarly, the elegant Brodsworth Hall and Gardens provides a fascinating glimpse into Victorian life, with beautifully preserved "pleasure grounds" to wander through. Whether you are seeking a vigorous hike through the woods or a slow afternoon exploring stately homes, this location serves as a tranquil gateway to both.
