    “Our second visit proved just as delightful as the first.”

    I defy anyone to find a superior self-catering property than Flittermouse Barn.! It really is in a class of its own not only for its quiet location in amongst beautiful farmland but for its cleanliness and high standard of craftsmanship inside. The owners are the best too.! The welcome pack and fresh flowers were very much appreciated and the cheering log burner especially as the nights were cooler on this visit. Thank you so much. Flittermouse is a credit to you!

Stargaze from the Hikki wood-fired hot tub or take in the sights and sounds of the adjacent woodland from the covered seating.

Nature lovers may get a glimpse of deer and owls whilst listening to the woodpeckers tapping drumming away in the distance.

Set in 37 acres of pasture and woodland, Flittermouse Barn is all you need for that romantic break with a loved one to recharge those batteries, whilst still being within easy reach of Hornsea, Beverley and the East Coast of Yorkshire.

An afternoon’s drive to the historical market town of Beverley is a must.
