Oil central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Travel cot and highchair. Enclosed lawned garden with summerhouse and garden furniture. Bike store. Private parking for 3 cars. No smoking.. Evergreen House is a well-presented, spacious property with private parking. Ideal for families and friends, you have a welcoming home from home to return to after exploring the beautiful surroundings of the heritage coastline as well as the North York Moors National Park. The large enclosed garden is surrounded by wild birdsong and boasts a summerhouse, where you can play a selection of board games. The summerhouse has electricity with lighting and heaters so you can use it in the evenings. Stepping inside from the garden, glass doors open into the open plan kitchen/dining room. This is a grand size where everyone can gather to enjoy meals together. The living room has sumptuous sofas in Harris Tweed and leather, sited around the wood burner, giving a welcoming atmosphere. On the first floor, the master bedroom has a kingsize bed with en-suite facilities, a second kingsize bedroom and a single bedroom. The family bathroom has a shower attachment plus a shower cubicle. On the second floor is a twin bedroom and a single bedroom.
At the top of the village a minute’s walk away away is a popular pub and hotel serving evening meals. Runswick Bay has arguably the most beautiful beach along this coastline. From the top of the village it takes just over 10 minutes to walk down the hill to the bay with a cluster of historic houses teetering above the sea. Down beside the bay is a small café, a traditional pub, a sailing club, paddleboarding and kayaking through the warmer months. It is a sheltered bay, so the water is often calm, whereas surfers have neighbouring Saltburn and Sandsend where the waves are often much bigger. The beach is beautiful, as well as being both dog and child friendly. From the clifftops you can join the Cleveland Way which links scenic coastal villages and bays from Filey in the south and up to Saltburn in the north, then continuing into the North York Moors National Park.
For days out you will be spoilt for choice. Further north along the coast is Staithes and Saltburn, the latter a surfers’ paradise with a Victorian pier and funicular railway, with an enormous beach stretching to Marske and Redcar. To the south is Sandsend, where the waves dramatically crash over the sea wall at high tide. Whitby is bursting with history and draws guests from around the world. The tangle of cobbled streets in the village of Robin Hood’s Bay cling to the cliff top, with houses spilling right down to the water’s edge. For a day out to remember, take the heritage steam train from Whitby across the Esk valley with some quaint villages to visit along the way. Cyclists will love the Cinder Track which is fairly level and connects Whitby to Scarborough.

Lovely comfortable home. Very well equiped kitchen with quality appliances. Modern furniture, comfortable beds and bedding. We visited in January and the heating was well timed and efficient - the house was always warm. There is a large garden and summer house which we would have used if the weather had been better. A big plus was the superb bus service, south to Whitby and north to Staithes and beyond which run every half hour, and the bus stop just a few steps from the house.
