Property code: OC-G0040

A very attractive three-storey traditional sandstone cottage set in rolling green countryside set just a few miles outside Whitby. With four gorgeous bedrooms sleeping up to eight guests comfortably, it's the perfect option for families or groups of friends looking for an elegant and stylish retreat on the Yorkshire Coast.

 

The charming period exterior of the holiday home gives way to a gorgeous contemporary interior with bags of space for the whole family. Step inside to discover a generous open plan kitchen and dining area, dominated by a wow-factor double sided wood burner which also heats the living room next door. Downstairs boasts solid oak flooring throughout which feels warm and welcoming underfoot as well as original Yorkshire Stone. The immaculate modern kitchen has solid wooden worktops, a range-style cooker and sleek brick-style tiles giving it a clean and fresh look. There's a dishwasher and microwave for your convenience and a washing machine and tumble dryer is provided in the utility just outside. The fabulous dining table seats all guests very comfortably and set beside a large window it's a lovely spot for those noisy family breakfasts. And when the kids have gone to bed, fire up the wood burner and settle down to a grown-up dinner by the fire.

 

Next door you'll find the spacious living room, again with that stunning wood burner at its heart. Another large window here lets in lots of light and comfy leather sofas provide the ideal backdrop to a chilled family room. There's a TV in here with subscription channels, a DVD player and Wi-Fi is also provided. Games and books are provided for some offline entertainment too. Enjoy looking out at a sea of Rhododendrons outside at certain times of the year. All of the bedrooms are set up stairs. On the first floor you'll find the handsome master bedroom which enjoys lovely private outlook to the surrounding lush green countryside. This generous room has a king-size cast iron bed dressed in crisp white cotton bed linen and a large en-suite shower room too. This floor is home to the second bedroom, another spacious and elegant room with a double bed and soft neutral colours.

 

The remaining two bedrooms are on the second floor. A very sweet twin just perfect for little ones. The last bedroom is a bright and fun room which kids will adore - they even have their own table football to play! There are two single beds in this room. There is also a large LCD TV & DVD player with a selection of DVD's to choose from- so it's the perfect escape for kids and adults alike.

 

Outside you have an elevated garden which is ideal for sitting outside in the warmer months. There's a gorgeous large patio complete with BBQ and rattan furniture for those balmy evenings. Take in the sights and sounds of the countryside all around you, without any noise pollution from cars – heavenly. The garden is set on different levels with a further patio area and garden furniture at the top accessed by stone steps. The garden is enclosed by a border hedge (with some gaps). There is ample off-road parking for two cars next to the cottage for your convenience too.

Disappointing outdoor space - in need of some TLC and tidying up with steep steps and not really secure for children and dogs. House was warm, clean and comfortable.

An excellent place! It suited us perfectly. The cottage is a way from the main road up quite a steep access, but is a great compromise between being in the centre and being away from hustle bustle. The Bridge pub is a great place to Visit. An excellent place to get away from life with all the comforts and ample Basics to kickstart your relaxation.

We found the cottage well equipped and clean and we had an enjoyable stay. The cottage is unique and remote but ideally situated for enjoying all the delights of the coast and moors.

On arrival we found dog muck in the garden, the kitchen sink overflow pipe leaking, the tap constantly dripping and the bathroom tap not attached properly and spinning when used. The foods which were left presumably as a welcome were all out of date, the coffee by 5 years. The garden is NOT enclosed as stated and the patio slabs are loose and dangeRead morerous. Weekdays builders are constantly walking past the windows, there is a skip on the drive, scaffolding in the garden and noisy work begins at 7am.
