Blackwood is situated on the grounds of the owner’s house, Ristonville, which was formerly the residence of Hornsea Pottery designer John Clappison. It is only a short stroll from Hornsea’s town centre and five minutes from the beach. Remodelled in 2023, this contemporary detached hideaway extends a warm greeting to anyone hoping to get away and enjoy the pleasures of the Yorkshire shore.
There is definitely something for everyone in Hornsea. The largest freshwater lake in Yorkshire, Hornsea Mere, must rank highly on the list. You can rent a rowing boat here and enjoy the scenery or go fishing or birdwatching. Numerous independent shops provide excellent services, and the town offers a wide variety of dining options, including quaint tea houses, pubs, bars, and restaurants. With the added bonus of contemporary conveniences, it nevertheless has a lot of the allure of a historic coastal resort.
