Beck Hole

Travel Guide

Beckhole station site/remains. View SW, to the end of the line, which had until 1865 been the upper end of a rope-worked incline section of the Grosmont - Pickering section of the 1836 Whitby & Pickering Railway - horse-worked. In 1865 the NER built a deviation from Grosmont to replace the incline, but the stub to Beckhole was retained, for goods working, also a passenger service in summer 1908-1914.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (136 reviews)
Exceptionally well decorated and beautiful home to explore the local area. Very welcoming on reception and everything you could need. Only minor gripe was the upstairs shower that was either boiling hot or freezing cold with no in between but sort that and this place is perfect.

We enjoyed our stay at Glendevon! Such a great location very close to the sea front, the cottage had everything we needed and was larger than it looked in the photos, especially the kitchen. We'd highly recommend!
