We love staying here and have returned four times. The cottage has everything we could need for a few days away in beautiful Robin Hoods Bay. There is a lovely garden which gets lots of lunchtime and late afternoon sunshine.

The cottage is in a great location in a wonderful setting, short walk to pubs restaurant and beach. Easy access to the coastal path walks. The cottage is clean and tidy with a nice back garden. The dedicated parking is great, however the drive down the very steep hill with a 90 degree right hand turn at the bottom is not for the faint hearted, be pRead morerepared to reverse back up the hill when you route us blocked by vehicles coming up the hill. Not for anyone with mobility issues due to the steepness of the hill that Robin Hoods bay has. Hide
