Cottage Features

It's been a long time since horses rested in this characterful cottage but we've been careful to preserve it's original features, including the original stalls and exposed stonework.

The cottage has a double bedroom and a twin with sea views across the fields. The twin beds can be made into a king-size bed on request, and a single chair bed is also available (at an additional charge). The double room has a seating area in front of the window looking out across the fields to the sea - the perfect spot to watch the sunset or take a few quiet moments with a book. The family bathroom includes a shower over the bath and there's a second WC, downstairs. The well equipped kitchen/diner is perfect if you want to russle up a meal or enjoy a local takeaway. You can enjoy the Smart TV, a DVD player and WiFi in the cosy lounge from which you have direct access to the shared enclosed garden, where dogs can potter around and you can enjoy a barbecue or enjoy some glorious sunsets. With underfloor heating downstairs and a full central heating system you will always be warm and toasty.

Short breaks are up to 4 nights subject to availability. These can be booked at any time for low/mid season subject to availability and occasionally in high season. Please message me!

4How many pets do you allow?

Having dogs myself I try and be as flexible as possible but do put some restrictions on the smaller properties. If you have more than 2 dogs please contact me direct via phone or email to check which property will best meet your needs for the number and size of your dogs. There is a small charge of £25 per pet per stay. I am also very accommodating of other pets and have had cats, rabbits, budgies and parrots staying – again, please contact me direct to discuss further.

5Where is the nearest supermarket?

Sainsbury's, Asda and Tesco all deliver to this area. We have a Co –Op in Staithes which is well stocked and do fresh baked bread. In Hinderwell there is a Butchers that is also a general store. At Lythe there is a Community general store shop, café and Post Office. They also make and sell amazing home made cakes, scones and quiches. Fresh baked Pies daily. In Whitby there is a Lidl and a Sainsbury’s (with fuel station) Head towards Saltburn and at Skelton there is an Asda with fuel station.

6How far is it to a café or pub?

The Badger Hounds is about a 10 minute walk – they consistently get good reviews from our guests. They are dog friendly but I would advise booking as they do get busy. Just up the road from there is The Ellerby Hotel, which does pub food and has a lovely garden. (dogs welcome in the bar area and garden. ) The Black Bull at Ugthorpe is well worth a visit as is Sneaton Castle. The Jolly Sailors on the A171 is also fantastic. At Sandsend, there are 2 Cafés with beautiful seafront positions and dogs are welcome. To be honest the whole area is covered with pubs and cafes that are welcoming of children and dogs so you are totally spoilt for choice whichever way you turn.

Saturday
