Perched above Robin Hood's Bay in the North York Moors National Park, this cottage is nestled in Fylingthorpe, a village with a traditional pub serving meals, and a convenience store. It’s less than a mile from Robin Hood’s Bay, a picturesque old fishing village on the Heritage Coast of the North York Moors. Meander the cobbled streets of the vibrant village, with a wide range of cafes, pubs, restaurants, and small shops – don’t forget to visit the dog-friendly sandy beach and explore the quirky passages, and enjoy the many stunning coastal and country walks, cycle paths and bridleways right on the doorstep. Pick a section of the Cinder Track, an off-route trail for cycling, and travel north to Whitby (6 miles) or south to Scarborough (15 miles).

There are clean lines, stylish decor and great attention to detail throughout this property and it’s a beautiful place in which to experience a memorable holiday. Step up in to the private patio and take the steps into an entrance porch – a handy area to leave boots and sandy shoes. Step inside the kitchen/diner, which is generously equipped, where you can prepare meals for two, before gathering around the dining table or venturing outdoors for an al fresco affair. Return to the warm and inviting lounge, get comfy on the sofa in front of the wood burner and watch some evening entertainment on the Smart TV. When it's time to sleep, rest your eyes in the double bedroom featuring a walk-in wardrobe and views into the garden. Start your day off with a warm shower or relax in the bath at the end of the day. There is also a washing machine in the bathroom.

Outside, there is a private patio offering distant sea views where you can enjoy your morning coffee or evening dinner.

An excellent cottage, felt very homely and cosy. Every detail thought of from kitchen equipment, cosy blankets, dog bowl and towels. Highly recommend. Also a convenient walking distance to Robin Hoods Bay by road or across countryside paths. Welcome basket was so generous too.

Lovely quiet cottage - ideal place to get away from it all. Very cosy - log burner is a must on an autumnal evening for a romantic night in with the welcome pack we received. Absolutely wonderful place to stay and explore the East Coast

You cannot go wrong in booking this superb, comfortable, well equipped, cottage. Never have I stayed in a rented cottage with so much in the kitchen, every thing you need plus more.
