Set on one of Robin Hood Bay’s narrow, cobbled streets, this historic cottage has been modernised inside to create a stylish and welcoming getaway for friends and families at any time of the year. A wood burner provides cosiness in the winter, while in the summer you can relax on the enclosed patio and enjoy the fresh sea air.
Traditional features such as beamed ceilings and original sash windows mix with contemporary yet comfortable furnishings in this appealing three-storey holiday home. Enter straight into the kitchen/diner, a generously sized room equipped with top-of-the-range fittings - a wonderful space in which to gather, eat and discuss your outings. You can sit back and relax in the first-floor lounge, perhaps light the wood burner on a cold evening and enjoy the Smart TV, a DVD, some music or a book from the shelves. There’s also a twin bedroom (with 2’6” beds) on this floor, and an elegant wet room. The two remaining bedrooms - another twin with 2’6” beds and a king-size - are on the top floor, tucked under the eaves and with pretty panelled walls. From the first-floor landing, a door takes you out to the enclosed patio, where you can sit with a drink on a summer’s evening or enjoy breakfast al fresco.
Robin Hood's Bay is located on a dramatic stretch of coastline on the edge of the North York Moors and is surrounded by gorgeous scenery and diverse wildlife. Stay in the village and explore its charming shops, pubs, cafes and restaurants, and spend time on the dog-friendly beach rock pooling and searching for fossils. If you want to head out, there are many wonderful walks, both along the coastal path and inland - try the 6-mile stroll along the Cinder Track to Whitby, for example.
