Living in Nunburnholme

A long, peaceful village at the foot of the Wolds, with a historic church, farms and parkland nearby.

Nunburnholme is an East Riding village east of Pocklington, lying in a green valley at the foot of the Yorkshire Wolds.

The long village includes a historic church, traditional homes, farms and mature parkland, with wooded slopes enclosing parts of the settlement.

Nunburnholme follows a narrow valley where trees, parkland and rising ground create a sheltered atmosphere. The long settlement form allows historic buildings, farms and open spaces to appear in a varied sequence rather than around one central square.

The village sits just beyond the main A1079 corridor, so the landscape feels quieter almost immediately. Wooded slopes and mature planting give it a softer character than the exposed farmland on higher Wolds ground.
