I've stayed in several cottages in Robin Hoods Bay. This cottage has everything, the views are amazing, the car parking space makes life a lot easier. The kitchen is very well equipped and had everything I needed. I was really impressed with the shower room it was clean and the shower had good pressure (theres a good view from the loo as well). I wish it had been cool enough to light the fire. A fantastic cottage and I booked for next year as I was staying there.

A lovely cottage with great views and location with plenty of choice for eating and drinking out and a nearby store. A great base for walking from or visiting further afield.
