With three bedrooms sleeping up to six people, the Cart Shed offers the perfect space for families or groups of friends to gather together.
Two of the bedrooms can be made up as either super king sized beds or two singles.
Situated all on one level, it is fully wheelchair accessible.
The Cart Shed looks out onto our woodland and across open fields. Watch the sun set, listen to birds singing and enjoy a glass of wine on the private patio.

THE PROPERTY WS OF A VERY HAGH STANDARD, our welcome was beyond expectation ....eg the welcome pack We were very isolated and further away from Beverley than we thought ...my fault as I thought we were to stay in the village not far from the racecourse !!!! We were taken by the friendliness of our hosts .... Should we make the journey again we would certainly be visiting you again

Such a beautiful place! There's clearly careful attention to every detail to make the stay perfect - everything from the cleanliness, the design, the facilities and extra touches, all the way through to the outside surroundings and the friendly helpfulness of the owners. I'd also highly recommend this accommodation and location for anyone with mobility issues or those in wheelchairs.

Peaceful and perfect for our needs
My elderly mum and i had a lovely stay in the Cart Shed. Beautifully restored, light and airy space, well thought out with a very well equipped kitchen, comfy furniture and everything we needed. The walk in shower, toilet rails and smooth floors/no steps were perfect for my mum who walks with a wheeler. We enjoyed the private yard and outdoor table & seating in a quiet rural setting. John and Katy were very welcoming and the organic prosecco & hamper was a lovely touch!

Amazing visit!
What a fantastic property and lovely location, we booked The Cart Shed as a base for visiting York, the amazing Aquarium in Hull and the nearby town of Beverley which is such a lovely town with all the shops and eateries you would want. Staying here would also be a relaxing and peaceful place for a break. The Cart Shed has everything you need, just pack your clothes and enjoy the experience. Will definitely be returning!

Lovely celebration break
You could not wish for a more relaxing location. The property is situated in a rural location with fantastic wildlife around. It is well furnished and everything has been thought of. The welcome basket and home made scones was also much appreciated.. We were a group of 6 celebrating a 65th wedding anniversary so being on one level and having two en suite shower rooms and a family bathroom was ideal for the age group. The local village pub served good food and was very COVID secure. The same can be said for the local fish and chip shop. All in all a nice relaxing break.

Highly recommended
We had a wonderful stay here. The Cart Shed is beautifully furnished with special extra touches for example a welcome pack, a Christmas tree and dog treats. It was comfortable, warm and cosy and a perfect spot for a pre Christmas get together. The area was close to the beaches for some great dog walking and there were brilliant places to eat (or takeaway) close by. We highly recommend it!

Beautiful converted cart shed and the friendliest of welcomes!
Wonderful accommodation, a perfect base for the weekend and our trip to Beverley Races! Lots of thoughtful touches (homemade cake on arrival, well stocked hamper of local organic goodies, and being met and shown round by the owners in person). Beautiful fixtures and fittings inside and superb views and starry skies outside. Lovely!

Our stay at swallows nest
We rented this property as a family celebration trip for my mum and dad who are both turning 60 this year. It has honestly been the most magical few days. The location of the property is perfect, it’s set in the countryside and it’s so quiet and peaceful all of us have felt so chilled out. We have also visited some of the local hotspots such as bridlington and Beverley as well as berts pizzeria which is a must and the black swan pub quiz. We have had the best time and would encourage anyone to visit and stay at the swallows nest. We stayed as five adults and we all had space and didn’t feel like we were on top of each other, it was exactly what we where looking for.

Beautiful property and area
We had only booked a couple of days away and it was quite last minute, but this did not disappoint. The house was stunning and immaculate. John and Katy had provided a gorgeous hamper full of lots of yummy things which went down particularly well with the kids. We had not stayed in Yorkshire before and found it to be lovely. Bempton Cliffs was fantastic. We could have easily spent all our time at the house though, watching the wildlife in the garden! We saw a multitude of different birds, there were pheasants and rabbits outside our window in the morning, and a hedgehog next to the woodshed in the evening. Just a lovely little break, and a shame we couldn’t stay longer. Thank you for letting us stay here. Sharan

Needs more that 5 stars!
Thank you so much John and Katy for your wonderful hospitality and helping to organise our surprise birthday weekend. The “Cart Shed” is amazing; from the fresh eggs to the homemade Victoria sponge and the wonderful warm welcome. It’s so rare to stay anywhere that truly thinks of all the “Little Things” like washing-up liquid, and Milk in the fridge! So much better than any five-star hotel. We have loved every second of our stay here, watching the wild life and sitting by the real fire each night playing card games and late-night stargazing. Everything here was immaculate, and we have absolutely made ourselves at home this weekend. It has been so peaceful and we felt like the only people for miles, though John and Katy were only a text message away if we needed them. We tried Harpers Fish and Chip shop on their recommendation which was lovely! Though, top tip, a small is definitely more than enough. We also had Afternoon Tea at Tickton Grange Hotel which we would highly recommend. We will absolutely be telling all our friends and family about Swallows Nest and we hope to be back in years to come! Thank you again

A perfect spot
We were greeted with a welcome hamper of, home made scones, locally produced jam, butter and a bottle of organic Prossecco. The owners own hens provided fresh eggs for our stay. The cart house was lovely with a large open plan living, dining area. Everything we could possibly need was provided with a fully fitted kitchen including dishwasher and a washer/dryer. To the front is a large shared gravelled area and to the rear is a lovely sunny private patio. Bird feeders attract all sorts of birds and we were lucky there were books on hand to help us identify them while drinking our early morning coffee in glorious sunshine. Outside the fence there is an old log with a sign saying "Bird Cafe" and if that wasnt enough we spotted rabbits, deer and baby partridge. The bedrooms are comfortable and very well decorated. Two rooms have en suite bathrooms with one suitable for less able bodied having a large wet room. The bedrooms are set on a long corridor which has the main bathroom at the end. The lovely thick towels provided were yet another luxurious touch. There are little hints to what the cart house used to look like before it was renovated and everything has been very well done. Nothing was too much trouble for the owners John and Katy. They take recycling seriously which is important these days. They even offered to take care of our dogs while we attended a wedding in the area. We would love to return in the winter if only to use the beautiful wood stove as it would be so cosy. We had beautiful weather during our stay so the underfloor heating was never tested. John and Katy are a credit to the holiday industry and couldnt have made our stay any better. Thank you
