    “When I rang the owner for access information I had to leave two voicemails before they rang me back to tell me there would be there to let me in.”

    Strange set up but it made sense when I arrived as there is a reception and bell for the camp site. I didn’t realise from the photos this was a site for camping too. The owners, Alex and Kay are very friendly and live literally next door. The area outside the cottage is not private at all and they have to walk through the area to access their property which set my dog off barking and then their dogs. The cottage is next to a dairy farm with a friendly farmer who gave me lots of great tips ...

    Strange set up but it made sense when I arrived as there is a reception and bell for the camp site. I didn’t realise from the photos this was a site for camping too. The owners, Alex and Kay are very friendly and live literally next door. The area outside the cottage is not private at all and they have to walk through the area to access their property which set my dog off barking and then their dogs. The cottage is next to a dairy farm with a friendly farmer who gave me lots of great tips for dog walks locally (the owners of the cottage went away for 4 days and he assumed I was looking after their establishment!) The cottage is ideally located for all the popular places on the Yorkshire coast and the pub is about 1.5 miles away. The views are great from the local fields. The enclosed dog field is very useful indeed. The cottage is basic with everything one needs however it’s a little tired. The duvet cover poppers were broken, the kitchen equipment minimal and no sieve so when I made pasta I had nothing to drain it through. There is no extractor fan as the cooker is old fashioned. This means opening the windows and lots of flies coming in. The kitchen drawers need attention as does the front door as they stick. The door between the living area doesn’t close properly so I had to wedge it with a chair to stop my dog coming in at 0400 when it gets light to wake me up. The cottage would benefit from a small bin in the bathroom for stuff you can’t put down the toilet

About the location

ROBIN HOOD’S BAY

Whitby 6 miles; Scarborough 17 miles.

Robin Hood's Bay, with its narrow cobbled streets and quaint cottages, is one of the most picturesque villages on the English coastline. Situated between Scarborough and Whitby, this charming old fishing village is to be found nestling at the edge of a wide sweeping bay backed by spectacular cliffs and dramatic moorland scenery, and was once home to author Leo Walmsley. All holidaymakers will love the beach and its cliff-top walks, whilst more serious walkers will enjoy the many long distance trails that pass through the Cleveland Way, the Lyke Wake Walk and the Coast to Coast walks which all take in Robin Hood’s Bay. The village amenities are superb, with charming alleyways to explore and plenty of places to rest, relax and take refreshment. A perfect base for enjoying the Yorkshire Coast.



Please note: From 10/10/12 this property no longer accepts children or babes in arms.
