Take in the salty sea breeze and stretch your legs on North Yorkshire's own Jurassic Coast with a stay at this traditionally styled cottage. The centrepiece of the home's open-plan living space is a wood-burning stove – the perfect tonic after a windswept day on the local beaches. With deep leather sofas and club chairs, getting comfortable and cosy in the living area is all but guaranteed. The well-equipped kitchen makes meals at home a breeze, where you can enjoy the feast clustered around the charming wooden dining table. When you’re ready to explore, take a ten-minute drive to neighbouring Saltburn-by-the-Sea and hop on the Cliff Lift, one of the oldest water-powered funicular railways in the world. Or, visit the historic town of Whitby, just half an hour away by car. Even nearer, you’ll find Cattersty Sands beach is a five-minute walk away, while your location on the halfway mark on the historic Cleveland Trail makes this home a cosy pitstop for any weary hiker.

About North Yorkshire
England’s largest ceremonial county, almost half of North Yorkshire is covered in National Parkland. The wild hinterland of the North Yorkshire Moors can be discovered on foot over meandering paths, or from the comfort of a Victorian carriage on a vintage steam train.
