FAQs
Can I charge my electric vehicle at the cottage?
We are in the process of investigating the installation of electric vehicle charging points at Church Houses. In the meantime, we request that you do not use “granny chargers” as our insurance does not cover any damage caused or fire risk.
There are charging points nearby at Helmsley, Kirkbymoorside and Pickering.
Our newer cottages at Mill Farm do have EV charging points.
