Elizabeth Cottage is a gorgeous terraced cottage situated in the picture-postcard village of Hinderwell, on the Yorkshire Coast. This dog-friendly cottage makes an idyllic retreat for two people in which to relax and unwind and take in all that the area has to offer. The cosy accommodation has been attractively furnished to offer guests a comfortable stay. The quirky living room has exposed brickwork and an open fire set within the original cast iron fireplace, a great space to curl up after a day exploring the coastline. There is also a Smart TV and DVD player for your entertainment. There is a staircase of two small flights of six steps separated by a small landing. It is a little steep but has a handrail. On the first floor the double bedroom has stripped wooden floors and a large window with seat. The comfortable bed, Hypnos mattress and crisp bedding ensures a good night’s sleep. The stylish bathroom with shower over bath completes this floor. Externally there is an enclosed, south-facing courtyard with a terraced patio and garden furniture. It has been described as a sun trap by many guests. A great place to enjoy a morning coffee or evening glass of wine as you watch the sun go down.
The cottage is close to two village inns and there is a direct bus route to Whitby and surrounding bays, ideal for avoiding parking at busy times. The bus runs regularly 7 days a week from morning until late evening. The beautiful beaches of Runswick Bay, Staithes and Sandsend are within easy reach. There are amenities on hand including a butchers/grocery store, church, village hall and fish and chip shop. Hinderwell is an ideal base for walking holidays too with many coastal walking routes and the Cleveland Way close by. This is the perfect location for exploring further inland as well, with the whole of the North York Moors just waiting to be explored. This charming cottage is the perfect base for exploring both coast and countryside. Beach 1 mile. Shop 350 yards.

Brilliant location. In easy walking distance to Runswick Bay and Staithes. Short car ride to Saltwick and Whitby, although the X4 bus to Whitby stops at the end of the road. Hinderwell village has a nice pub and tearoom. The cottage is perfect for 2 and has a lovely front patio which gets the sun all day. The kitchen is well equipped though doesnt have a normal oven, has a combi microwave and only 2 hob rings. We took prepared meals from home and reheated them which was fine. We would definitely return as we had a great week.

The cottage was lovely, we didn’t cook there and we wouldn’t have, I can’t reme
The cottage was lovely, we didn’t cook there and we wouldn’t have, I can’t remember if it’s in the description but there’s no oven! It does have one of those micro/grill/oven things but I’ve never used one. We had all other comforts though, bed was super comfy. Cottage was perfectly clean, a few arrival gifts, tea, coffee, milk and delicious biscuits. We didn’t find a local shop but heard on the last night that the butcher has essentials but being out every day meant we could pick up any bits we needed. Local fish and chip shop was the best ever!! Only open 3 evenings a week I think but they’re the best I think we’ve ever had, amazing batter and crinkle cut fresh chips - yummy!!! Bus service was good and we had to contact the vets in Whitby, they were brilliant with our boy. He was seen and sorted within an hour of my phone call. We were out every day but when in the cottage it was peaceful. You will enjoy your stay <3

Lovely bijou cottage accommodation for two and a dog.
Good location within easy driving access to Staithes, Whitby etc...
Unfortunately the Patio were covered with ? Plaster and we could’nt open the pan drawer, otherwise, a great little cottage with everything we needed, tastefully decorated and clean and comfy.

The cottage was booked as it was the first cottage we have come across that had a decent mattress!,
The cottage was booked as it was the first cottage we have come across that had a decent mattress!, and a good nights sleep is important to us.
The cottage was clean and provided all that we needed however I felt that the kitchen was poorly designed and did not like the combination microwave as an only means of cooking and it was not easy to use. For this reason I felt that the cottage was overpriced.
