The property
Robin Hood's Bay 3 miles.
This fabulous and traditional Yorkshire farmhouse is nestled in an idyllic and tranquil location at Boggle Hole, just along the beach from the historic fishing village of Robin Hood's Bay.
Situated on a small complex at South House Farm, the property is set in private, south-facing gardens with panoramic views towards Robin Hood’s Bay and Ravenscar, with just a five minute walk down the hill to the delightful sandy cove of Boggle Hole.
With characterful, spacious rooms, there is a stone-flagged entrance, with a handy boot room, utility and cloakroom leading off.
The well-equipped country kitchen has a large electric traditional style range cooker with induction hob ideal for cooking for large family groups and a central solid beech dining table, where you can sit and chat whilst preparing meals.
There is a large separate hall with solid oak dining table which seats 10 people in high-backed stylish fabric chairs.
The elegant and bright sitting room with its beautiful views leads from the dining hall.
Here the ample comfortable seating surrounds a replica cast-iron real effect electric stove.
A French door leads from the sitting room onto the private terrace and gardens.
On the first floor there are four spacious bedrooms, with a charming super king-size room benefiting from an en-suite shower room and dressing room, while the single room is a child's delight.
The modern family bathroom offers a double basin, shower and a gorgeous free-standing bath.
Most of the bedrooms have superb views over the sea and stretching along the coastline.
The second floor has a beamed open plan area, which is ideal for a family group, with the double bedroom adjoining a twin room, with an en-suite bathroom leading from the double room.
Outside, the beautiful garden provides a peaceful haven, plus wooded valleys and streams lie in the surrounding farmland with an abundance of wildlife to enjoy, including roe deer and nesting birds.
The beach at Boggle Hole is renowned for fossil hunting and rock pooling and historically this cove was where smugglers landed their contraband.
The beach stretches from the ancient fishing village of Robin Hood's Bay to the spectacular cliffs of Ravenscar.
Explore the pretty cobbled alleyways and enjoy a coffee or cream tea in one of the traditional tea rooms in Robin Hood's Bay.
A few minutes’ drive brings you to Whitby, with a tangle of narrow streets, a cobbled market place and the ruins of St. Hilda's Abbey.
A superb property for a wonderful and memorable family holiday.
