Tucked away in a labyrinth of pathways and streets tumbling down towards the sea, this property is a gorgeous three-storey seaside cottage in Robin Hood's Bay. Dating back to the 17th century, the cottage has been brought back to life with a contemporary but classic make-over.
This stylish cheerful cottage is a delight at any time of year. Think crisp white and blue accents, white painted floorboards, exposed beams, tongue and groove panelling and latched doors. This New England clapboard theme lends a real sense of light and space, with lots of seaside trinkets, paintings and French antique furniture dotted around to help you feel at home.
Downstairs you'll find an open-plan sitting room, kitchen and dining area, all set to the seaside theme. It's a comfortable space in which to retreat after a day on the beach or exploring the rock pools down in the bay. There is a living flame fire to give a cosy feel to the room and a Smart TV & DVD player available too. Wi-Fi and a BOSE docking station provide further entertainment.
The handsome open kitchen includes a dishwasher, fridge with ice box and microwave as well as the usual small appliances. Settle down to dine at the pretty table under the stairs - just the place for a cosy candlelit meal.
Please note that due to the age and character of the property there isn't a washing machine, however we can advise of a local launderette if required.
There are three generous bedrooms in the cottage, the first of which is the master bedroom set on the first floor. This beautiful room boasts an original cast iron fireplace, king-size bed and views out over the village. It also enjoys an en-suite shower room.
Bedrooms two and three are on the second floor, another generous king-size room and a charming twin. Set in the eaves of the house, you can enjoy waking up each morning to the sound of the sea and the seagulls calling high overhead. The second and third bedrooms share the large family bathroom on the first floor, which comes complete with roll top bath and original stone fireplace.
Please note this is an old fisherman's cottage with steep stairs, as such it may be unsuitable for some guests. Small children should be supervised.
As is the case with most cottages in Robin Hood's Bay, there isn't a garden. However, a bistro table and chairs are provided so you can sit out on Chapel Street and enjoy the sun over your morning coffee. And the beach is under half a mile away!
