Cawthorne House

About

Cawthorne House is a family‑run Bed & Breakfast nestled in the picturesque market town of Pickering, offering a cosy ‘artisan’ atmosphere and a warm welcome from father‑and‑son hosts Pascal and Sarah. Their two adorable boys add charm to the home‑like setting, and the property boasts comfortable rooms ranging from double ensuite suites to super‑king/Twin ensuite rooms. Guests can enjoy a relaxed check‑in between 4:00 pm and 6:00 pm, a complimentary breakfast served between 7:30 am and 9:30 am, and the opportunity to explore the surrounding North Yorkshire countryside. Beyond accommodation, a highlight of the stay is the celebrated sourdough workshops hosted at the house. Travellers can choose between individual or couple‑sized sessions, each costing £140 plus the cost of accommodation. The course is hands‑on, giving participants a starter starter and certificates of completion, and is suitable for beginners to seasoned bakers alike. Additionally, the house offers a thoughtfully curated vegan menu, featuring locally foraged ingredients and seasonal dishes such as wild‑mushroom fricassee on sourdough, oat‑milk or soya drinks, and vegan pastry treats. For those planning a visit, phone enquiries can be made at 01751 269339, or email enquiries@cawthornehouse.co.uk to arrange a stay or a baking class. The property welcomes guests year‑round, with rooms available for as little as one night on request and the lowest nightly rate of £90 for single stays. The combination of authentic hospitality, culinary workshops, and proximity to attractions such as Pickering Castle, the White Swan Inn, and the North Yorkshire Moors Railway makes Cawthorne House a must‑visit destination for travellers seeking a relaxed base in the Yorkshire moorlands.
