A beautiful holiday cottage, great views and perfect for a family with young children. Large fenced garden overlooking Ravenscar and the sea, and children’s park 2mins away. Room for off road parking. Great wood burning stove, large kitchen and sun room. Downstairs shower room and toilet. Would have been useful to mention there are 11 steps down and up from the main bedroom to the bathroom quite a feat in the middle of the night.
