Darwin Escapes gives a warm welcome to the Kilnwick Percy Resort. The KP Resort joined the Darwin Escapes family in April 2017, bringing luxurious holidays and championship gold breaks in the heart of the Yorkshire Wolds. Located in charming Pocklington, the KP Resort offers the same level of luxurious holiday breaks you’d expect from a Darwin Escapes destination.

With two storey lodge accommodation over-looking the 180 acres of woodland and manicured golf course, you can feel your stresses and strains slip away. Marvel at the views from the floor to ceiling windows and soak up the atmosphere from your private hot tub outside, while enjoying your self-catering holiday at the KP Resort. We also offer one-night and short breaks in our wonderful and unique hotel room accommodation, where you are also offered breakfast.

Our onsite Glasshouse Restaurant serves mouth-watering meals, delicious light lunches and snacks and even decadent afternoon tea for an indulgent evening out, as well as a fully stocked bar and relaxing lounge area. Take your meal or drink on the outdoor decking area overlooking the Yorkshire Wolds and relax next to our peaceful water feature. If you’re visiting for a special event and are looking for a private dining area, our beautiful Vale of York venue could be just what you need, offering an opulent private dining experience, with floor to ceiling windows giving unrivalled views of the stunning Yorkshire Wolds around.
