  • Light and bright, this is the perfect family property for a seaside retreat
  • Take in sights and sounds of the sea from your own enclosed rear garden
  • Visit the area with your four-pawed pals, the property welcomes two dogs and the nearby beach is pup-friendly

Property code: OC-WA330

With sea views from your own enclosed garden, this is a great place to head to for a quintessential British seaside holiday with family or friends, and a dog or two. Part of the beach nearby is dog friendly year-round, so your furry guests will be well catered for here, with so much entertainment available on the seafront.

Inside, the naturally decorated interiors with blue accent touches, have everything a family or group or friends need for a relaxing break. The kitchen downstairs is spacious and has a dining area for sociable mealtimes. It has French doors leading out to the garden where dogs and children can play freely. There''s lots of outdoor furniture for al fresco dining when the weather allows. Back inside, the utility room next to the kitchen is a great place to hide coats as well as keeping all laundry out of sight. The lounge is one of two spaces to relax. It has a big bay window, which floods the room with light, while seating is positioned around the gas fire. The second reception room is a games room with table football, a TV and a games console. Upstairs are four bedrooms. One has a super-king-size bed, another has a king-size. The two final bedrooms are ideal for children - one is a twin and one is a single. There’s a generously proportioned family bathroom for all to share.

The property’s close proximity to Sandsend Beach is one of its biggest selling points, with part of the beach dog-friendly all year round. The busy town of Whitby is just a 3-mile walk along the coast. Whitby has many pubs and cafes, if you want a change from the dog-friendly options available in Sandsend.

A lovely, very well-equipped, spacious holiday home in a lovely quiet location just 100 metres from the sea. A perfect home in a perfect spot, and wed definitely come again. We have fed back to the owners that it wasnt quite as clean as we would expect when we arrived (we needed to hoover again, and dust on some surfaces), but hopefully that Read morewill be addressed for future guests. Wed definitely book again. Hide

5 Star review - Very nice property, plenty of room, very comfortable beds, warm and cosy. Lots of kitchen equpiment which was a plus. Utility room was warm to dry our outdoor boots and clothes. Very nicely decorated and well appointed in each bedroom. Bathrooms were very modern. The games room was a great advantage. We were 4 adults, 2 teenagers anRead mored 1 child. We arrived on 27th December and noticed immediately that there were a lot of dog hair on all of the couches in the lounge and the sofa bed in the games room. The T&C's of the property are to NOT allow pets on furniture or upstairs but clearly the previous occupier had allowed this to happen. This put the lounge and games room seating out of action due to dog hair all over our clothes. NOT great. We had to wait until the company opened to ring and inform them. 1) I called and someone answered but could not hear me so dropped the call. 2) I called again and got through. The person at the company was very apologetic and informed me that they would deal with this straight away. She confirmed the T&Cs for pets and was quite upset about the dogs being allowed on the couches. She was very polite and respectful - she promised a deep clean of the areas in question - 5 stars. 3) I then received a call from the first person who could not hear me - again 5 stars as she actually called back! 4) I then received a call from the local person who again apologised and informed me that the housekeeper would be around at lunchtime to deep clean. Again 5 star service We left the keys in the safe and went out. 5) We came back to the house and we could tell immediately that the housekeeper had done an excellent job on the deep clean. 5 stars. So whilst the dog hair was not pleasant the service from holiday cottages was first class. We cannot thank them enough for their prompt, polite and respectful service. I would highly recommend the company to anyone. Thanks from all of us! Happy New Year. Hide

Haggs cottage is lovely and homely and in a fantastic location just a little way up from the seafront. Sandsend is absolutely gorgeous and I love the proximity to Whitby. Dogs are not allowed on this part of the beach now from May to September. The beds at the cottage are very comfortable.

What a wonderful house in a wonderful place. It is perfectly situated in Sandsend, auspiciously for the area, adorned with a great drive for private parking, and a lovely homely feel. It has recently been renovated with new bathrooms and a new kitchen and perfect for a family and for us, most crucially, for dogs. A great patio out to the rear encloRead moresed garden is perfect for pooches. Ours loved it so much and it was a joy to see them have such a great holiday after one of them had a serious operation that means anywhere we go we need easy access out to the garden, and the owners have had a wonderful floor put down that is super practical, easy to clean and not slippy (brill for older dogs, older visitors and little ones!) Its been a long year for us and we really needed a break and this was just perfect. Thank you for letting us share your lovely house. Hide
