Alcuin

About this property

Tucked away in the pretty seaside town of Hornsea, East Riding of Yorkshire, is this a spacious detached four-bedroom property, Alcuin. Enjoying a prime position along the coast and easy access to the local ameni-ties and the city of Hull, Alcuin is a wonderful dwelling for a group or family of eight looking for their next Yorkshire escape. Park-up on the spacious driveway with room for four cars, before making your way into your new home-from-home. Step into the generous kitchen, where the chef of the group can conjure up delicious feasts, ready to be enjoyed at one of two dining tables over a bottle of fizz. After a hearty meal, retire to the sitting room where you can sink back into the plush sofas and select a family favourite to watch on the TV, as the fire gently warms the space. If you’d prefer a quiet moment, why not snuggle up on the sofa in the snug and escape with a good book? Completing the ground-floor is a cloak-room for your convenience. Climb the stairs up to the first floor, where you can wash away the day with a refreshing shower or a soak in the bath, before choosing from one of four well-appointed bedrooms, two doubles and two twins. Explore your local surroundings, where you will find an excellent selection of pubs, restaurants, cafes and takeaways right on your doorstep, perfect for giving the chef of the party a night off from the kitchen! Just a short walk away you will find the picturesque Hornsea Mere, here you can take to the waters on a boat or cast your rod to seek out your catch of the day, the mere also makes for a great bird-watching spot. Wildlife enthusiasts will delight at the nearby Bugtopia Hornsea Zoo, or if that isn’t your thing, why not test out your clubs at the fantastic Hornsea Gofl Club, which is only four doors down. Other attractions within the town include the Hall Garth Park, Hornsea Museum and the golden sands of Hornsea Beach. Hornsea Freeport Shopping Outlet is popular for shopping and has newly introduced a Pottery painting unit with 100’s of different things to paint, and serving traditional afternoon teas.

For a taste of city life, head over to Hull where you can wander along the Humber Estuary to find the popular Deep aquarium featuring an underwater tunnel, the interesting Streetlife Museum and the fasci-nating Wilberforce House. Next stop is Bridlington, home to its own fabulous beach and promenade, along with The Bayle Museum, the John Bull World of Rock and the Bridlington Animal Park. Explore the stunning Flamborough Headland Heritage Coast, where you can soak up the breath-taking views and spot puffins at the RSPB Bempton Cliffs, tour the impressive Sewerby Hall and Gardens or stroll through the idyllic Danes Dyke Nature Reserve. All this and more awaits with a stay at Alcuin.
