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.

    We had a lovely stay.

    We were met by James and his mother who welcomed us and were on hand if we needed anything. Its location is ideal for the beautiful resorts of North Yorkshire and walking to Runswick Bay was a bonus. The Wi-Fi wasn’t the best but worked ok (streaming anything wasn’t great). Everything was presented with great attention to detail and the furniture and beds were comfortable. It’s on a main road but the windows save you from most of the noise and it didn’t bother us at all. We had a great time and will return sometime.

    The village itself was friendly and the location was ideal. Many nearby places to explore and eating out was a real pleasure.
