Crab Cottage

About this property

Sitting amidst the beauty of the North York Moors National Park and benefitting from captivating coastal views, Crab Cottage makes a wondrous base for a getaway to this desirable destination of the Yorkshire Coast, the village of Sandsend. Be charmed by the stone-fronted exterior, with small a front patio to bask in the sun on the bench as you soak in the quaint setting locally known as The Valley. Step inside to discover the delightful décor, with a splash of sea blue to reflect your coastal setting, and brimming with character with its beamed ceilings and hardwood floors. Locate the open-plan living space, where you can unwind on an armchair and enjoy meals together at the stylish dining table in the heart of the room. Rustle up heart-warming dishes in the capacious kitchen area, boasting an AGA cooker and supplimentry electric induction hob, to cater to your culinary desires. Escape to the intimate setting of the snug room, gently heated by a toasty woodburning stove; here you can lounge on the sumptuous corner sofa and perch your cup of tea on the quirky coffee table. A self-catered stay has never been easier with the handy utility room hosting a washing machine to keep your holiday wardrobe fresh and a dishwasher to keep the place neat and tidy! As the sun begins to set over the sea, retire upstairs to the first floor to rest and rejuvenate in the stunning bathroom, either indulge in a leisurely soak in the tub or enjoy a refreshing rinse in the shower. When sleep calls, choose between three adorned bedrooms, white-washed with bold feature walls, including a double with en-suite shower room, a double and a lovely twin bedroom, all with matching furniture to house your belongings. In the morning, enjoy a steaming cup of coffee in the large garden to wake-up with a salty-sea breeze and admire the scenery. Sandsend is a pet-friendly holiday location with a glorious beach welcoming your canine companion, as well as plenty of amenities for your self-catering stay, including a local shop and eateries. When you're not embarking on a journey into the natural beauty of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park, take a trip to Whitby where history-lovers can visit the gothic ruins of Whitby Abbey, whilst climbing the 199 Steps provides spectacular panoramic views, or take to the family-friendly sandy beach for picnics and sandcastle building. Staithes is an unmissable seaside village resting on a hillside dropping down to the quaint narrow streets with picture-perfect coastal views; follow winding cobbled streets dotted with 18th-century cottages, trek paths along the Yorkshire cliff tops and go hunting through rock pools on the small sandy beach. For a historic, postcard-perfect fishing village, travel to Robin Hood's Bay with narrow alleyways full of character, quaint shops and tasty tearooms, alongside the Bay's museum hosting local history and heritage. Crab Cottage is the perfect base from which to explore the coast and countryside of Yorkshire with your loved ones.

With its award-winning, broad sweeping beaches, rock pools, and dramatic cliffs, Sandsend is the ideal destination for a family break on Yorkshire's beautiful Heritage Coastline. The stretch of beach is known as the Dinosaur Coast for its abundance of fossils, alongside stalls selling beach-day essentials. There are plenty of activities for children, as well as stunning coastal paths to wander or cycle the Cleveland Way Trail for breath-taking clifftop views.
