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.

This cottage was a dump, it was damp, smelly, dirty, wall paper was hanging from the walls the garden was overgrown and wasps nests meant we could not even sit outside.Very disappointed.

The cottage is in a great place and has parking nearby by. It does have steps to the cottage and is not accessible for people with mobility issues. The cottage has everything you need for a short stay. Beds are comfy and towels are plentiful. It does need some modernisation and is dated, but this doesnt affect the stay. There is a shower that doesnRead moret work, but you can have a bath if you space them out due to hot water availability. The TV does work if it is the only device attached to the wifi, for all other devices search for EE wifi to buy. The cottage is dog friendly which is a bonus. Hide

We loved our Xmas stay in this cottage. So cosy and warm .The location is stunning and we enjoyed visiting the local pub and eateries. Very close to Whitby and Robin hoods bay so we were able to explore .Live TV was problematic for those who may like to relax in the evening . We didnt sit in the outdoor space due to the weather , but the garden wRead moreas delightful and in the warmer weather would be ideal. Dog friendly but we took our own blankets to protect the furniture .The secure garden ensured our little dogs did not escape ! The beds were so comfortable and bed linen beautiful and we all slept well. We appreciated the welcome pack and the little bottle of milk so were able to enjoy a hot drink before unpacking Thank you so much. . Hide

Fabulous cottage. Such a peaceful location on the side of a beautiful valley. Weve stayed in a number of cottages in Sandsend over the past few years and this is by far the biggest and most roomy. The outside cabin was an amazing surprise.

This is a nice cottage in a stunning location, however it needs a lot of attention to make it the perfect holiday destination. Inside it is tired and in need of a deep clean. The television does not work and the WiFi is poor. In bad weather there are few options for entertainment.

We had a lovely stay. The cottage was clean and had everything you'd reasonably expect. We used the fab covered dining area in the garden most evenings. Our daughter loved the bunk bed, which is well-made. We had no problems with parking. It's a short walk to the lovely beach. The coffee machine is a Lavazza A Modo Mio; pods are sold at Sainsbury'sRead more (but not Lidl or Aldi). The broadband was functional, but couldn't handle multiple devices. Consider pre-downloading if you plan to stream a lot. Hide

We have stayed in this lovely cottage twice now and would definitely go back again. The cottage is in a lovely location. The cottage is comfortable and has everything you need. Even though some of the stuff could do with updating. And could do with redecorating.

The cottage is in a wonderful location, in a lovely valley only a short walk from a few places to eat and great walks along the coastline. Certain parts of the cottage do however need a refurb, especially when compared to similarly priced places.
