Set in the heart of coastal town Redcar, you have sand, sea, and moors all on your doorstep. And what a doorstep. The beautiful cottage is Grade II listed, owing to its 17th-Century heritage, with stunning period features and a warm, farmhouse feel. This location is ideal for history and nature fans and people who want to escape the city and relax on the beach. Redcar has 8 miles of sand running from South Gare to Saltburn-by-the-Sea, and the dunes are just a five-minute stroll away from the cottage. The coastline here is also a hotspot for fossil hunters and beach-combers. Walk for ten minutes, and you'll reach the town centre, lined with traditional shops and eateries. The North York Moors National Park is a twenty-minute drive away and can be explored by mountain bikers, hikers, and ramblers. Discover unique wildlife and a landscape of purple heather, forests, and dales. When you arrive home after a long day of exploration, enjoy the quaint original features of the brick fireplace and wooden beams. In the milder months, fire up the pit on the patio and cook local produce as the sun goes down.

About Redcar
Set on the Yorkshire Coast, Redcar still has that Victorian holiday vibe. It’s easy to imagine moustachioed bathers in their stripy long-john swimwear paddling about on the long, sandy beach. Climb to the top of Redcar Beacon to survey the town, looking out over the Victorian pier. Follow the sand in one direction, and you’ll reach bustling Saltburn-on-the-Sea, just along the coast, where a vintage tram trundles up the cliffside...
