Local Area

Nestled at the foot of the stunning Yorkshire Wolds, the bustling market town of Pocklington offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, rich history, and modern convenience. Surrounded by green spaces ideal for hiking, cycling, picnics, and wildlife spotting, Pocklington is a haven for those who enjoy the outdoors. Once the second largest settlement in Yorkshire after York, the town proudly features in the Domesday Book and continues to celebrate its heritage today.

The town’s skyline is dominated by the towers of the 15th-century Church of All Saints, a must-see for history enthusiasts, with its peaceful gardens and striking architecture. Nearby, Burnby Hall Gardens and Museum is home to the National Collection of Hardy Water Lilies, while Millington Wood and the Pocklington Canal provide further opportunities for tranquil walks and nature watching-the canal itself is listed among Britain’s top ten locations for spotting aquatic life.

Pocklington also boasts a lively cultural scene, with the Pocklington Arts Centre offering an eclectic programme of film, music, theatre, dance, exhibitions, and workshops. The town hosts a varied calendar of events throughout the year, including the ever-popular Pocktoberfest beer festival and the quirky Flying Man Festival, commemorating Thomas Pelling’s daring (though unsuccessful) 18th-century attempt to take flight from the church tower using homemade wings.

With a central location, this McCarthy & Stone development enjoys a wealth of amenities right on its doorstep, including both Sainsbury’s and Aldi supermarkets, alongside a wide choice of cafés, pubs, restaurants, and local shops, making everyday living both convenient and enjoyable.
