Looking for a Yorkshire seaside retreat with a view? Then call off the search – this showstopper of a home perched beside the golden shores of Sandsend hits the spot. United by pristine interiors and commanding magnificent coastal vistas, it's easy to see why this cottage has scooped a few awards in its time. A home to enjoy in all seasons, summer months are all about lazy brunches and sundowners on that panoramic veranda soaking up the sea air, crashing waves, and sunshine. While wintery days call for hunkering down inside on those highly sinkable sofas or around the elegant dining table – it's your front-row seat to marvel at the ever-changing tides and big sea skies outside. When it's time to feel the soft sands between your toes and give four-legged friends and kids alike a runabout, the three miles of glorious beach stretching to Whitby are seconds from your door. If you fancy casting your net further along the coast, the private garage parking at this home makes exploring by car a cinch – starting at Whitby, just a ten-minute drive away for a hefty dose of seaside nostalgia. However, you'll need some serious skills in persuasion to... convince anyone to leave this seaside idyll.

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.
