About this property

This large, five bedroom family home has a superb location on the seafront, with glorious sea and beach views – a few paces and you are on Sandsend’s golden sands!

The property comprises a glass entrance porch which leads to the kitchen, which has a gas range cooker, dishwasher, tall fridge-freezer and microwave; there is also a utility room that provides more storage plus a washing machine and tumble dryer.

From the hallway is a dining room with seating for up to ten people – plus a good size beach-facing sitting room with a wood burning stove, smart TV and a bay window with window seat. This ground floor also has a cloakroom/WC.

On the first floor are three bedrooms, the front beach-facing bedroom is a double bedroom with hand wash basin and fabulous views out to sea. There is also a twin bedroom with two 3′ single beds and a hand wash basin plus a second double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom with bath, shower over, WC and hand wash basin. This floor also has a house shower room with shower, WC and hand wash basin plus an additional separate WC with hand wash basin.

On the second floor are two twin bedrooms, each with a hand wash basin, with sea views from the Velux windows.

The ancient fishing port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk and is ideally situated for exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire, with its superb coastline and close proximity to the spectacular North York Moors. Whitby is a charming and atmospheric town of winding streets and hidden alleys, with a picturesque harbour, safe sandy beaches and of course the Abbey, reached by the famous 199 steps.

    Not enough cleaning product around and the pantry needs cleaning out of all junk in there. For 10 people the fridge freezer wS quite small, particularly the fridge. Not having an outdoor space was a downfall as we had a couple of decent days where it would have been lovely to sit outside with a drink. Despite all this the house is lovely and comfy and an absolutely beautiful location. The beds were a bit soft and the pillows were too soft aswell, so some upgrades would improve the overall experience, perhaps a nest of tables to put drinks on in the lounge aswell. For the location and standard of accommodation the price was very reasonable for the time of year. If I had to pay more I'd be disappointed due to the things mentioned. I woukd stay in this house again at similar price without hesitation.

    Yorkshire Cottages were amazing - so helpful when I needed to phone to ask where the high chair was - in the porch!! Would definitely return to the house and use Yorkshire Cottages again. Thank you

    Warm, clean & comfortable. The grandchildren loved playing by & in the river - built stone towers, made rafts & generally had fun, even in Feb! Great area to find fossils. A couple of ‘minor’ points (not to be negative but advice for future guests) - we had 3 cars between us so parking near the property wasn’t that easy.. luckily one of the main car parks was free until the end of March so we used that. Might be more of a problem in peak periods. Property was on a main costal road from Whitby to Saltburn so had to be extra careful with the children & dogs, especially with no garden ( but we were aware of that beforehand) But had a brilliant time !! Additional Note to owners/management: - fridge & general food storage space was limited (especially for 8+ guests. - cooker/oven probably needs updated & more energy efficient. - have you looked into acquiring the spare land behind the gift shop to turn into a small courtyard for guests to use?
