A lovely little cottage in a great position in Sandsend. The stairs to the bedrooms are very steep so not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. We were there with 2 children so no problem for us!

Lovely property but just be aware of the steep steps to the bedrooms. There is a handrail but you need to be careful when going up & down.

Lovely being so near the sea. A beautiful cottage, well equipped and beautifully decorated. The only bugbear being the lack of direct parking. We naively thought the complimentary parking cards were for the car park 100 m away and incurred a 50 fine!!! This, however, has not put us off staying again, perhaps in October when parking is free as we loRead moreved Sandsend and had a lovely short break and want to come again. Hide

Another fabulous visit to our favourite little, cosy cottage. Perfectly located to enjoy the beautiful Sandsend beach, which is located on the doorstep. Although small, its perfectly formed and had everything we needed for our family of four. Looking forward to returning in the future.

Great location right next to the beach and not too many steps to get to the property, we were also able to get parked quite close by which can be very difficult in other seaside locations nearby.

Really loved this place and free parking all through the stay. Only thing I found difficult was the steepness of the stairs but that is down to my own health conditions.

A lovely cottage, clean, well equiped and maintained, dog friendly Just a stone's throw from the beach and car park. Great for walks along the beach to Whitby, the costal path and the Mulgrave estate. Pubs and cafes are only a short walk away. Good base to explore NY coast and Moors.
