Get back to nature in this eye-catching timber lodge, set in wooded grounds near Whitby. A vaulted main living space and generous bedrooms make this home feel like an American log cabin. With its huge windows giving way to English countryside views though, there’s no mistaking you’re in one of North Yorkshire’s most picturesque spots. There’s plenty of space to socialise in the main living area and out on the deck for alfresco meals, but there are also quiet corners, like the loft, where you can retreat with a good book for some relaxing alone time. When you’re ready to go out and explore, Whitby with its historic harbour and sandy beach is less than a fifteen-minute drive away, while the dramatic sweep of Robin Hood Bay is reachable in twenty. Away from the coast, you have the North York Moors National Park right on your doorstep. After a day in the great outdoors, come back home for a meal around the large dining table followed by a cosy night over drinks around the living room’s wood-burning stove.

Once you've wandered about this home nestled away in the North Yorkshire countryside for the first time, it probably won't come as a surprise to learn that it was once a hotel. The vast size of the building and its grounds partially give the game away, but there's also something about how the communal areas are arranged, especially the pool table and bar that make it an especially sociable space.

You'll also get a sense of the home's heritage pretty quickly as well. Located on a farm that dates back to the 18th century, there's a strong rustic charm throughout the interior, from the wooden ceiling beams and stone archways to the open fireplace that's wonderful to retire next to after a long bout in the great outdoors. 

Speaking of which, there's a whole host of amenities on the grounds for when the forecast is being kind to you. As well as a large lawn and lots of equipment for playing games, there's plenty of seating for alfresco feasts, as well as a hot tub that's an idyllic spot for a nightcap, especially once the stars are out in the sky.

In the local area, there's a wealth of attractions to be discovered, from the Victorian spa town of Saltburn-by-the-Sea just two-and-a-half miles away to the Cleveland Way National Trail, which can be reached on foot and rewards those that follow the path with views of the dramatic coastal landscape.

This home in Egton is the perfect compromise between seclusion and a beach holiday. With only six miles separating you from the seaside town of Whitby, you can easily take a quick road trip to spend the day on the sandy shores of West Cliff beach. Whilst there, be sure to walk the promenade for a gorgeous view of the Church of Saint Mary and try your hand at the claw machine in the pier arcade. After a lunch of fresh seafood, head to the Whitby Abbey, a fourteen-minute walk from Whitby Beach, to visit the renowned ruins that inspired Bram Stoker’s gothic novel Dracula.

Back home, take in the tranquillity of the secluded escape by sitting out on the deck with a cup of coffee. Watch the breeze play through the line of trees surrounding you as you catch up on your favourite podcast. We recommend, at least once, sitting out here to watch the sun rise or set, maybe even both. Inside, get the cacao ready for movie night in front of the fire, and when you’re ready for bed, swing by the bathroom first for a soak in the tub.

If you're after proximity to the coast and a peaceful countryside setting, this home may be your perfect match. Welcome to the quaint village of Egton, about five miles west of Whitby, where you can explore the surrounding natural landscape or access the amenities of the seaside in just a short drive. While it may look like a traditional terraced cottage from the outside, it's been refurbished to high standards and furnished with style, so we guarantee you'll look forward to coming back to it after a day spent exploring the the North York Moors or at the beach. We picture ourselves cooking up a feast in the high-spec kitchen before retiring for a well-earned bubble bath in one of the two stunning clawfoot bathtubs. Featuring a secret snug filled with floor cushions and also a bunk bedroom, it would suit a large family with some younger members.

Luxury Bedding

Although this wooden lodge sits in the middle of a leafy caravan park in the North Yorkshire countryside just outside of Whitby, there's nothing temporary or makeshift about the living quarters. In fact, there's a contemporary style and enough high-quality amenities that would see it slot quite easily into the swishest of city neighbourhoods.

The double-height windows in the living room do a brilliant job of bathing the interior in natural light, as well as offering peaceful views of the surrounding trees. This architectural feature makes the communal space a lovely spot for relaxing, whether that's cuddling up next to the wood-burning fireplace or cooking up something hearty in the super-sleek kitchen. 

If you're paying a visit during the warmer months – or you just want to emulate the hardiness of local Yorkshire folk during the colder seasons – you can make the most of the home's private terrace complete with seating. There are also plenty of walking routes and historic attractions in the surrounding North Yorks Moors National Parks, as well as the village of Egton and its pub lying within walking distance. The quirky seaside town of Whitby takes less than a quarter of an hour to reach in the car, too.

Courtyard

In the North York Moors National Park, thick greenery and lush countryside vistas are just one side of this delightful display of nature. While this home sits between rural villages like Castleton and Danby, a half-hour or so in the car will take you to the shores of Whitby. After a day of bracing sea air and a portion of fish and chips, heading back to your country abode feels a world away from this colourful seaside town.

While fish might be on the menu at the coast, this home has a history of pork. A former pigsty, this rustic building sets the tone for an elegant and modern stay – quite the renovation. From the outside, its terracotta roof and honey-coloured stonework certainly give it a barn-like feel. With original stable-style doors and a large courtyard out front, you can imagine the livestock milling around in days gone by.

But as soon as you step inside, history is forgotten. Fresh and sophisticated, the living space is an inviting mix of soft fabrics, chunky timber beams, and understated furnishings, all in the glow of a fabulous log-burner. We love the bright white walls and apex ceilings, creating a fantastic sense of space. Another large space is the garden, where a patio awaits with a cute dining set and a barbecue – pork sausages anyone? 

Four Trotters

Warm umber tones and plush textures counterpoint the ascetic beauty of the North York Moors that surround this stone-clad barn. Lovingly renovated and carefully restored, your hosts have spared nothing to make this place the perfect rural retreat for a small family or selection of friends. The living room’s vaulted ceilings with timber beams add a sense of space, while the wood-burning stove in the kitchen-diner makes suppertime cosy. The views of Glaisdale are heady and head-turning. Sit out in the garden and sup it all back with a pot of tea and a wedge of parkin. Pull on your walking shoes and criss-cross the low dales and high moors. Should the wind whip up, retreat to the pub – a leisurely forty-minute stroll from your cottage – for slap-up grub with lashings of gravy and those all-important Yorkshire puddings.

It also offers a calming and peaceful sanctuary where you can return after long and lush days exploring the Yorkshire coast and beyond.

Start each day by cooking up a delicious full English breakfast in your fully equipped kitchen, and tuck in all together around your stylish dining table while you discuss the plan for the day. Head out to Saltburn Beach and ride the cliff lift down to the sand, and spend the day eating fish and chips, rock-pooling and paddling. When you return home, stick a movie on the TV and cuddle up on the comfy sofas with a hot chocolate, or have a soak in the bathtub with a good book.

You'll be less than a five-minute walk from the glorious sands of Saltburn Beach at this home on the North Yorkshire coast, meaning it's ideally located for surf lessons, coastal walks, and hiking the Cleveland Way. It's also under twenty minutes on foot from the historic town of Saltburn-by-the-Sea, best known for its pier and charming tramway – it’s one of the oldest operating water-balance cliff lifts. When you're not trying the town's excellent bars and restaurants, make the most of the modern kitchen, perhaps taking your meal down to the garden for an alfresco dinner. The comfortable outdoor seating is also perfect for relaxing in the evening, watching the sun go down with a drink or two. Or simply take in the views over the beach, North Sea and Huntcliff from the sunroom – we think the vistas here are wonderful.

As you brace yourself for the salty spray at the end of Saltburn-by-the-Sea’s iconic pier, wouldn’t it be lovely knowing that you’re a ten-minute walk from a comfortable and luxurious home? Wind back through the streets of town, passing quaint cafés and restaurants en route, until you end up at this fabulous apartment. Its grand living room is the perfect place to kick off your walking boots and sink into the plush sofas. With stylish, light-grey walls and original white cornicing on the ceilings, the decor allows some other features to really pop. The bright-green book cabinet beckons you to pick a classic novel. The flame-coloured chandelier invites you to spend a cosy evening under its glow. And you can even light up the elegant fireplace to beat the seaside chill with a whisky in hand. As for the morning, we recommend sitting out with an Earl Grey on your private balcony, before another adventure in the north of England. With Saltburn Station just a three-minute walk, you can explore the country whether or not you’re driving – but it’s also a joy to hike in these rolling hills and moorlands.

The Victorian spa town of Saltburn-by-the-Sea makes for an excellent seaside escape. It’s a real coastal retreat, surrounded by charming seaside towns and villages – you can use Saltburn as your base for exploring the area. 

This charming apartment is ideal for romantic getaways, and equally well suited to solo stays by the sea. We love the traditional beams and cosy, homey vibe. You’ll feel at home the instant you arrive at this stylish abode. Best of all, the apartment boasts sea views. Wake up each morning to see the sea rushing ashore. Step out onto the balcony to sip your morning coffee, and breathe in the sea air. The blue-tiled kitchen is a lovely spot for your meals, whether you’ve whipped up a cooked breakfast or are unwrapping fish and chips for your evening meal. 

It’s just a short walk down to the beach, where you can build sandcastles, skim stones, or even try out the surf. Saltburn is also home to the UK’s oldest functioning cliff lift – enjoy the ride down to the promenade. Later on, stroll along the 208-metre-long pier with an ice cream – we do love to be beside the sea.

This walker's paradise is situated on the Cleveland Way National Trail, a great route to explore the rugged North Yorkshire coastline. If a gentle wander is more your thing, roam the many paths winding through flower-filled meadows, or watch the sunset from the beach just eight minutes away.

Sea Thrift

If we told you to imagine a postcard-perfect coastal village, you'd probably picture something like Runswick Bay. Cute clusters of red-roofed cottages hug a sheltered stretch of sandy beach, where you can do all the lovely seaside things - explore rock pools, go on coastal walks at sunset and, of course, consume copious amounts of ice cream. After a hard day breathing in all that fresh sea air, this cabin is a welcome base to return to. Making memories with loved ones is easy in the open-plan living space, while two sun-kissed terraces are perfect for leisurely breakfasts and even more leisurely evening drinks. Nippy nights are no bother when you're curled up on the sofa by the fire.

Peace On The Horizon

Air Conditioning

Built in 1862, this character-filled home that was once a stable boy's accommodation is now a cosy and atmospheric 21st-century getaway. We love every irresistible inch, from the light-filled skylights and gorgeous sea views down to the glossy parquet floor. The sumptuous master bedroom is so stylish, it's hard to believe it's all upcycled from cladding and roof joists, and the master bathroom is even better. Relax with a soak in the lavish free-standing bathtub or rinse off under the rainfall shower. The living area is warm and incredibly comfortable. In the mornings, open the bi-fold doors and sip your coffee on the Juliet balcony, watching the ocean waves from the floor-to-ceiling windows. After a tasty breakfast rustled up in the blue kitchen, head up to the roof terrace to soak up the sunshine. Decked out with lush greeny and a barbecue, you'll want to spend every minute you're not at the beach sitting up here, enjoying alfresco meals and sipping cocktails as the sun sets over the water. Speaking of the sea, it's just a five-minute walk down to the beach or into town, where you can snack on fish and chips and grab a pint at one of the local pubs. Shopaholics can browse Saltburn-by-the-Sea's independent boutiques, keen hikers can walk along the Cleveland Way or for a more leisurely pace, just stroll along the Victorian pier, relishing in the salty sea air.

The Stable Boy

Fenced Garden

Just a mile from the beautiful sandy and shingle shores of Marske Beach, this newly built holiday home is perfectly positioned to explore this picturesque stretch of the North Sea coast.

The majority of the individually decorated rooms include an eye-catching feature wall, adding a splash of colour and a playful atmosphere to the home, while the enclosed garden is perfect for outdoor dinners and playtime with four-legged friends and energetic children. 

You'll hear the occasional cheer from the terraces of the nearby football club. Still, its family-friendly atmosphere on match days makes it an ideal candidate for a first football match, with little worry about the outlay when your children inevitably grow bored around fifteen minutes in. 

After catching a snippet of the game, enjoy an afternoon stroll southwards along the dramatic coast towards the historic seaside spa town of Saltburn-by-the-Sea with its iconic cast iron pier stretching 208 metres out to sea and its Grade II-listed cliff lift.

Beneath the Marske

Located in the quaint Victorian Spa town of Saltburn, this home is a pretty wonderful example of the phrase ‘dynamite comes in small packages’. Sure, it’s a studio, but far roomier than you might expect, and actually rather perfect for a romantic getaway. Draw the curtains to let the light stream in and spend a lazy morning in bed with coffee and a crossword puzzle before finally dragging yourselves out of bed and into the kitchen for breakfast. Head out from there on a romantic walk through town and toward the promenade. 

There are also plenty of hiking options or walks through the maze of The Valley Gardens. If you’re not walking – arm in arm is best – then you can always hop in the car for a road trip with an epic playlist. After a meal at a romantic restaurant, snuggle on the coach with the fire crackling in the wood-burning stove, and just appreciate the space, the moment, and each other. 

Sanddollar

This is a home steeped in history. Built in the early 1800s, it was a bank for over 100 years, before becoming an art gallery in the 2010s. The apartment has been beautifully converted to retain its original features which give it so much character. Enjoy your morning coffee while admiring the far-reaching views through the tall, arched windows or curl up with a book on the cosy velvet sofa. It’s also a great home to entertain in, with the large marble dining table taking prime position in the open-plan living space. And of course, the location is fantastic too – within easy reach of Saltburn's shops, great fish restaurants, and beaches of the North Yorkshire coast.

Wood Owl

Perched above the tiny village of Rosedale Abbey, this former vicarage has beautiful views of the rolling Yorkshire countryside. There’s a local shop, tea room, pub and café within walking distance, but it’s all about rambles into the countryside here. Despite the historic building, the interior is stylish and modern with three separate lounges to spread out across – a sunny orangery extension, and two formal living rooms with working fireplaces. Bedrooms are cosy spots for sound sleep, but it’s the barbecue deck outside that takes the cake with a panoramic view of the valley and hills. 

Willow in Bloom

Sun Umbrellas

If you’d like a peaceful stay in the Yorkshire countryside, while still being within easy reach of the fun-filled Yorkshire coast, this home offers the perfect sanctuary. Located in the little village of Brotton, just a short drive from Saltburn-by-the-Sea, this characterful cottage has loads of traditional features that make it feel homely and quaint, such as the exposed beam ceilings, ornate wooden furniture and chintzy soft furnishings. It also sits in a private garden where you can listen to birdsong on crisp dewy mornings, and find a bit of peace and quiet amongst the trees.

Start each day with a good book in one of the two sunrooms, and let the light flood in through the glass walls. Head into the large, country-style kitchen, and cook up a full English breakfast. Tuck in alfresco on your patio dining set, while you discuss the day’s itinerary. Head to Saltburn Beach for a paddle in the waves, or head into Brotton for a pint in a classic village pub. When you return, light up the wood burner fireplace and cuddle up on the sofa with a glass of wine, before falling into your big cosy bed, ready to do it all again the next day.

Sweet Beams

There's something to satisfy everyone's wanderlust at this Yorkshire barn conversion property, nestled on the outskirts of the old-fashioned fishing village of Staithes and just a twenty-minute drive from Whitby. Wrapped in the North Yorkshire hills, there are scenic walks across the dramatic rolling moors whichever way you turn, or head for the sandy shores and bustling harbour of Staithes, just a twenty-minute walk away (or three-minute drive). Within its winding cobbled streets, you'll find bustling pubs, shops, art galleries, and of course, all the fish and chips you could muster. Spend the day at the sheltered sandy beach shell combing and rock pooling, take to the waters from the village for a boat jaunt to Whitby, or try out a fishing tour. Just be sure to make it home with plenty of time to switch on the hot tub and relax in the bubbles under the stars – there's no better way to finish a day. Inside the home, the barn's original exposed gable ceilings have been expertly restored to create an open, lofty feel to each pristine room. We're particularly fond of the barn doors, painted a dashing shade of red and reimagined into picture windows, opening out to reveal glimpses of green landscapes from nearly every room.

Plaid Sailing

Nestled in the heart of the North York Moors National Park, the location and interiors of this cosy cottage make it perfect for a romantic retreat or a small family getaway.

You’re situated just on the edge of Glaisdale, a charming village boasting a traditional pub, a village shop and an award-winning butcher. The location is ideal for walks around the rugged moorland, and you’re less than a thirty-minute drive from the stunning beaches of Whitby and the Cleveland coast. Once you get back from a day of exploring, take a seat in your walled garden and breathe in the fresh country air. If hiking’s your thing, the free-standing tub in the bedroom is the perfect tonic for weary legs.

Marrying traditional charm with modern upgrades, this 16th century, Grade II listed cottage offers the best of both worlds. With exposed stone walls, wooden beams and travertine tiled floors, it's easy to fall in love with the vintage character, but updates like underfloor heating, DVD player, Nintendo Wii and Bose sound system add some 21st-century touches. Start your morning with tea on the small patio before heading out for the day. When you've had your fill of fun in the sun, unwind with a glass of wine in front of the fire, then prepare a delicious dinner in the sleek kitchen. End the evening with a relaxing soak in the slipper bathtub before nodding off in the cosy bedrooms. This cottage feels like a true home-from-home and it's perfectly placed for exploring. Set within the North York Moors National Park, this area is ripe with trails to roam and paths to cycle, and the village has an excellent pub if you're in the mood for a pint.

When you're not trying the town's fantastic eateries, make use of the sleek, grey kitchen at this stylish, professionally interior designed apartment. Take a seat on the blue velvet chaise sofa and put your feet up after all that exploring. We adore the sea views from the large bay window here. This place is just the ticket for a couple or solo traveller looking for the ideal north coast bolthole.


Wading In The Velvet Sea

From the whitewashed cottages to the sheltered harbour, Staithes has been an important fishing village for centuries, and this cottage embraces the idyllic vibe of the village. Evidence of its fishing life is still all around – from seafood at the ocean-battered pub, The Cod and Lobster, to the restored wooden steps and rope bannister of this home. The old cottage has been upgraded with modern luxuries; there's a deep roll-top bath for soaking, a wood-burner in the top-floor lounge, and a pizza oven in the kitchen. The real highlight is the terrace facing directly over the North Sea, with the adjacent wild-flower hillside adding a wash of colour in summer. The cliff-surrounded beach of Staithes is a short stroll, and fossils can be found on walks along the sand. For swimming and bathing, we love Sandsend beach, a 20-minute drive away. Whitby is also less than 20 minutes away by car and is full of eccentricities.

In the Victorian beach town of Saltburn-by-the-Sea, this swish apartment makes for a perfect family or friend-group escape to the seaside. It’s right in the heart of town, and you’ll find micropubs, restaurants, fish and chip shops and boutiques in the streets around the apartment. Spend a day at the beach, a five-minute walk away or perhaps stroll along the pier and take the country’s oldest cliffside tram for a view over the town.

The living room is a delightful mix of mid-century style furniture and modernity. Think velvet scalloped chairs sitting alongside an L-shaped sofa big enough for the whole family. The wooden dining table can comfortably seat six people, and there’s additional room at the breakfast bar if you need it. Bedrooms are soothing spaces in neutral tones, inviting you for a quiet night’s sleep.

Seaview Escape

Pet Bowls

With its stunning red-roofed cottages and sweeping sandy beach, it's easy to see why the beautiful former fishing village of Runswick Bay regularly features towards the top of lists ranking the UK's best beaches.

One of several self-catering accommodations situated within a ten-minute walk of this stunning sweep of sand, this newly constructed three-bedroom lodge is equipped with everything you could need for a coastal escape with friends and family (including four-legged members).

Whether you're stretched out on the sofa, playing board games at the dining table, or preparing dinner in the kitchen, the open interior layout is perfect for spending valuable time together without feeling as though you're all on top of one another. On sunny summer days, throw open the French doors to instantly expand the living area onto the terrace, equipped with an outdoor dining table and parasol. Elsewhere, three individually decorated bedrooms take inspiration from your surroundings, with both nautical and countryside motifs featuring throughout.

To maintain the peace and tranquillity of your surroundings, you won't find a long list of on-site facilities offered here. However, the nearby village of Hinderwell has a pub and a fish and chip shop, while the nearest supermarket can be found in Staithes, a couple of miles down the road. Head in the opposite direction, and you'll be rewarded with the ruins of Whitby Abbey hovering into view as you approach the town. Meanwhile, the rugged beauty of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park offers countless miles of picturesque hiking and biking trails.

Runswick Bay Beacon

This stylish apartment is the ideal seaside getaway – it's right in the heart of glorious Saltburn-by-the-Sea. You'll be a two-minute walk across the road from the golden sands of Saltburn Beach – perfect for picnics or doing some watersports. This walker's paradise is situated on the Cleveland Way National Trail, a great route to explore the rugged North Yorkshire coastline. Or, for fabulous views of the North Sea, take a ride on the Cliff Tramway.

As soon as you walk into this interior designed apartment, housed in a charming Victorian building, you'll notice how light and bright it is, thanks to a large bay window, crisp white walls and high ceilings. The velvet sofas give a spot of luxury, while colourful artwork adds vibrancy. Whip up some fresh, local seafood in the modern kitchen and enjoy with a glass of wine. This home is perfect for a family or friends looking to unwind.





Circle In The Sand

Garden Green

If you’ve been looking for a sign to explore the North Yorkshire coast, then, hello, here it is. This home, set only a stone’s throw from Whitby, has the advantage of an ideal location on its side. Close enough to drive to Robin Hoods Bay, Saltburn-by-the-Sea, and the North Yorkshire National Park and Moors, it's still far enough away from any sort of bustle that it feels secluded. So grab a coffee pre-dawn and sit out on the terrace as the sun breaks over the horizon. 

Even with the doors open, it's still peaceful enough here to kick back with a good romance novel and glass of wine. Although, you might want to carpe diem and wander out to the beach whenever you spot a ray of sunshine, because Runswick Bay has been recognised by The Times as one of Britain's top fifty beaches. Paddle board, surf, and splash to your heart’s content before finding a spot that serves fresh seafood. You have our permission to think about the bubble bath you’ll run when you’re driving home from a day adventuring, and after, gather together for a game or two of Scrabble.

Denim & Wood

This home is set against a dramatic landscape peppered with Jurassic-era fossils and a rich mining history. Newly renovated, the cottage pays homage to its heritage by blending original fixtures with natural materials to stunning effect. Here, you're welcome to curl up by the wood-burning stove, share an intimate meal around the rustic dining table and stretch out in the sunshine on the decking in the enclosed backyard. Take a ten-minute morning stroll along the rugged clifftops to Port Mulgrave Harbour to admire the fishermen's huts – made from reclaimed flotsam and found materials – or seek out sea creatures in the coast's abundant rock pools. Restaurant Number 20, five minutes around the corner, comes with a Michelin Guide recommendation, and there are also a handful of popular pubs well within walking distance. Historic Whitby is a twenty-minute drive south, while the forests and dales of the North York Moors National Park are right on your doorstep. With well-behaved canine companions welcome, we see no reason not to move in permanently.
