About this property

This delightful, detached stone cottage, sits in the small village of Hinderwell, nine miles north up the coast from Whitby. Situated in the North York Moors National Park, it is well-placed for walking, cycling and traditional seaside holidays. Accessed by a garden gate to French doors at the side of the property, you step into the spacious open plan living area that has been thoughtfully presented to a high standard. There is a modern oak kitchen with a dining table to the side and a comfortable sitting area with a leather corner sofa and with a bathroom and a ground floor shower room, there will be no queues in the morning! With beams, tongue and groove doors and traditional furnishings, it provides a characterful and welcoming cottage to come back to at the end of a rewarding day. Outside, a rectangular small courtyard is a lovely sun trap in the afternoon. There are excellent local amenities within a stone’s throw from this charming cottage, including a good butcher's, a local pub, a tea room and a village shop. Port Mulgrave beach is just a few minutes’ walk, with its fossils and rock pooling, whilst the picturesque fishing village of Runswick Bay is one mile away and offers a sandy cove, just perfect for building sand castles and paddling in the sea. Take a bracing cliff-top walk on the Cleveland Way with superb coastal views, or explore the nearby seaside town of Whitby, steeped in history with its narrow, cobbled streets, interesting shops and famous abbey. On the edge of the North York Moors, this inviting and homely cottage makes an ideal base for a memorable family holiday.

Hinderwell is a small but bustling rural village with shops and pubs close to the picturesque fishing villages of Staithes and Runswick Bay, whilst being just 9 miles from the charming harbour town of Whitby. Hinderwell is ideally located for exploring the beautiful surrounding countryside, ranging from the dramatic cliffs and smugglers’ coves of the coastline, to the deep secluded dales of the North York Moors National Park. Walking, cycling, gliding, riding and fishing are all well catered for in the area, making this the perfect location for a relaxing break.

    The coastal bus service is very convenient with a local stop very near the property. Don't bother queuing for ages at The Magpie in Whitby, the Excelsior Chippy at the top of Staithes is excellent for fish and chips. The directions provided by Sykes to find the property are very confusing with reference to turning down West End Close, well do not !!! If coming from Whitby the property is on the left just after passing West End Close and if you drive past the Bistro as mentioned...well you've missed it all together... coming from the North the property is on the right just before West End Close and you will pass the Bistro coming this way.

    The only downfall was the large, uncomfortable black plastic sofa which dominated the already small and dark sitting room. The bed had rather uncomfortable pillows . A very useful garage. Overall clean and adequate but not quite to the standard of our previous stays with Sykes.

    Owners warm and welcoming people, thank you for the welcome supplies. Special thanks to Marianne for your kind thoughtfulness and understanding,. Highly recommend the cottage and look forward to staying again at some time in the future.
