Howdale Cottage from the Beach

Welcome to Howdale - a character cottage with sea views and very close to the beach, it would be hard not to enjoy it. Situated in the 'Old Sandsend Valley' backing onto Mulgrave woods with the old castle there are interests for all ages. Whitby is a beach walk (tides permitting) or a short bus or car journey away. With several recent refurbishments it offers three bedrooms - the main room with 5ft bed and a full en suite, twin room and bunk room with full sized 3ft beds and comfortable living areas. The lovely south facing garden has sea and valley views and is a perfect place to enjoy an evening drink after a day on the beach!

The Sitting room

The sitting room is furnished with comfortable chairs and two sofas. Antique furniture enhances the period feel of the room. This, together with the flatscreen TV, DVD player, music centre and various books, makes this room cosy and pleasant if there is a wet day! There is a coal effect fire which adds a lovely glow in the evening but the cottage has excellent central heating and instant hot water so can be enjoyed throughout the year.

Howdale has free Wi-Fi and free landline local calls.
