Sofa even reclines! (Although it splits in two so be prepared to get cosy with whoever you are sharing your half with! ) Really close to Whitby and cinder track (for the track turn left out of building (coming out of the opposite door to where you park) head passed the small play area, turn right and head down the steps. Lovely walk into Ruswarp for pub lunch and kayaking too.
