Historic elegance and modern styling meet in the decor of this quaint cottage sitting at the bottom of Robin Hood’s Bay. Get the whole gang together for a break just 0.1 miles from the beach. Enjoy strolls along the sand, go fossil hunting, or enjoy a pint or two in one of the village’s atmospheric pubs. Head into Whitby (5.5 miles) to explore the ruins of Whitby Abbey (0.5 miles) – which are said to have inspired Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Further afield, head to Scarborough (16.5 miles) to take a surfing lesson, go on a dolphin-spotting boat trip, or take a stroll around the town’s Medieval castle.

Step inside this gorgeous cottage and you’ll find a wonderful open-plan kitchen/dining room. Get busy cooking up a feast for your loved ones in the chic kitchen area, or crack open a bottle of something cool and crisp and catch up on the gossip at the dining table. After dinner, head up to the spacious, light and bright lounge on the first floor, where you can slip onto a sofa to relax in front of the wood burner. You’ll also find an elegant family bathroom on the first floor, as well as access from the landing out to the cute patio. When it’s time for bed, there’s one twin bedroom on this floor, as well as two more bedrooms up on the second floor – a king-size and a twin. The king-size boasts a beautiful feature fireplace.

We have stayed in many cottages in Robin Hoods Bay. This is one of the better ones and the quality of the kitchen equipment is excellent. Thank you

This is a lovely cottage, great location in the bay. The shower is a bit of a let down as it is just lukewarm water.

Just spent a fabulous week in RHB, staying in beautiful Fenay Cottage. Perfect location in the middle of the Lower Bay, so ideal for Fisherhead Car Park and loading / unloading car ( permit is wonderful) All cafes, pubs and stores are nearby whether walking up or down the steep hills. We recommend The Cove, The Brambles and The Fish Box plus The GRead morerosvenor (Loxleys) Hide

Nice property but be aware there is only 1 bathroom catering for up to 6 people and no washing machine which could be a challenge if you intend to stay for longer than a week. Location was excellent, right in the middle of the village. I have ticked yes with regards to recommending the property based on the location, but suspect there will be similRead morear properties at more favourable rates throughout the village. Hide

We spent a very happy week in Fenay Cottage. We loved the location in the heart of the village, and having a nearby parking place was a big plus. The house is very well equipped including the kitchen, which for someone like me, who likes to cook when on holiday, was great. Our granddaughter loved the shower!

Overall the cottage was excellent as was the communication from the agent. We wont visit again though as we have a dog and the narrow and steep stair cases woukd have been ok if our dog could walk up stairs, but she cant due to back surgery. So although we had a lovely time and would be suitable for an adult only, no kids, no dogs holiday. It was aRead mores expected, so not the fault of the property description, more about our individual needs. Only other feedback and not something you can change, the Bay is beautiful, but the seagulls are very loud, woke us every morning at 5.30am. Was ok at first, but by day 7, was glad to leave them behind. Hide
