This home is set against a dramatic landscape peppered with Jurassic-era fossils and a rich mining history. Newly renovated, the cottage pays homage to its heritage by blending original fixtures with natural materials to stunning effect. Here, you're welcome to curl up by the wood-burning stove, share an intimate meal around the rustic dining table and stretch out in the sunshine on the decking in the enclosed backyard. Take a ten-minute morning stroll along the rugged clifftops to Port Mulgrave Harbour to admire the fishermen's huts – made from reclaimed flotsam and found materials – or seek out sea creatures in the coast's abundant rock pools. Restaurant Number 20, five minutes around the corner, comes with a Michelin Guide recommendation, and there are also a handful of popular pubs well within walking distance. Historic Whitby is a twenty-minute drive south, while the forests and dales of the North York Moors National Park are right on your doorstep. With well-behaved canine companions welcome, we see no reason not to move in permanently.

About Whitby

Famously the setting of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, there’s something hauntingly beautiful about Whitby. The ruins of Whitby Abbey, set atop a windy hill overlooking the town, are just like a scene from a gothic novel. When the sun sets, ghost tours amble through the cobbled streets, revealing the town’s dramatic history. By day it’s all idyllic fishing village vibes, with a hint of Victorian holidays.
