Overview
Property code: G0138

Enjoy the beauty of both the North York Moors and the North Yorkshire and Cleveland Heritage Coast from this delightful cottage in Sandsend. Sleeping five guests, the three-bedroom hideaway overlooks a valley which leads right down to the sea. It is less than 300 metres from the beach and 3.5 miles from Whitby. It nestles right in the fringes of the North York Moors National Park.

Step inside the stone retreat after your long walks and make yourselves at home in its inviting lounge. Cosy up in here in front of a film on TV or simply gaze out over the rooftops towards the sea. Stroll on through to the kitchen/diner, where you can open the door to the garden on fine days. Prepare hearty meals for your family or friends then gather around the table by the window. At the end of each day away in Yorkshire, climb the cottage-style stairs to the first floor of the property. Here you will find two double bedrooms, plus a bunk bedroom that is ideal for the younger members of your party. The family bathroom is also at this level. Choose between the two pretty gardens at this holiday home when it comes to enjoying the sunshine. Enjoy a morning cuppa on the bench to the front as you take in the views or dine outside in the covered seating area to the rear. Light the fire pit in the evening and sit out under the stars.

Spend long summer days on the beach at Sandsend, swimming, paddling and picnicking. Head into historic Whitby to climb the famous 199 steps up to the abbey ruins, and you can potter in the shops, dine out and spend time on the beach here too. For a coastal walk, you can follow a section of the Cleveland Way from Sandsend.

Beautiful location, cottage was clean, comfortable, especially the beds!!! We had an amazing short stay, parking was fine just a steep walk up steps to property but once all luggage up to cottage it was well worth it!!! Would love to stay again sometime!!

Booked in a hurry then saw previous reviews and was concerned so contacted Holiday Cottages and they spoke to the owner. I am pleased to say that we found the cottage in a clean condition. There is much to like but have to concur with earlier reviewers in that the owners need to undertake some maintenance and upgrading work. The location of the cotRead moretage is super and some TLC would make all the difference and bring the cottage up to the standard that you would expect for the price paid. Hide

Thank you for letting us stay at your cottage, we were lucky with the weather, and did have a nice busy week. The cottage is in a great location. We were pleased with comfy clean beds, the heating and hot water worked a treat, and we were grateful for the washing machine. We would like to recommend that some extra tlc, maintenance, and attention toRead more detail would give this cottage a better rating and reviews. We left it cleaner than we found it. Hide

Lovely little cottage in a fantastic location. Could be cleaner. Quite small. There wasnt any washing up liquid or soap of any type, eg bar of soap or hand wash at the sinks. No tea towel provided. This was the first property we have stayed in in Sandsend where welcome hamper of wine, snacks, bacon, egg etc was not available upon arrival. We did reRead moreceive some bread, butter and milk on day 2, left at the door under the bin lid. Some of the furnishings need updating. The double beds were small. Hide

What a shame that this cottage cleaning management is well below what we expected. The maintenance of the cottage was also a disappointment for us..On our first impression, it seemed OK but once you started to settle in it was evident that the cleaning wasn't took seriously..Externally there were discarded cig stubs on the front decking, the lower Read moreexternal covered sitting area wasn't clean with the brush broken which stopped us doing it.???
