A charming cottage for up to four guests and one canine companion set in the heart of a famous coastal village, this idyllic retreat is a wonderful option for small families or couples travelling together. Brimming with character, the modern nautical-themed interiors add to its appeal as a comfortable home from home. Historic Whitby is a popular holiday destination that brims with activity throughout the year; enjoy relaxing strolls along the beach before exploring the many dog-friendly establishments which line the town’s ancient, cobbled streets.
Step inside this delightful abode from the picture-perfect surroundings of Hydings Yard and you’ll find yourselves in the beautiful lounge/dining area. Bright and airy, with lofty beamed ceilings and coastal-inspired contemporary interiors, it’s a lovely space to spend time in; let your sleeping dog lie in front of the wood burner effect electric fire while you curl up on the sofa with a good book. Five steps lead down to the kitchen area, which offers all you need to comfortably cater for your stay. A handy utility cupboard also sits off the lounge. Upstairs there are two well-appointed bedrooms, one double and a twin room, and the family bathroom completes the first floor. At the front of the property sits a charming patio area with bistro table and chairs, an ideal spot to enjoy a cuppa before embarking on a day of dog-friendly adventures.
Whitby itself, steeped in a rich maritime history, with the iconic abbey ruins dominating its skyline, is the perfect place to enjoy a coastal break with your hound at your side. Two local beaches (500 metres away) sit astride the River Esk – to the east is Tate Hill, a small sheltered bay where dogs are welcome year-round and on the other side, traditional West Cliff where there is a large stretch of sand to enjoy but with seasonal pet restrictions. After digging for treasure along the shoreline, explore the winding cobbled streets within the town itself, with local eateries touting fresh delicious seafood – a charming location that offers the warmest of welcomes whether on two feet or four paws.
