Millbrook

  The Detail...

This Grade II listed sandstone cottage is perfectly positioned in the pretty fishing village of Robin Hood’s Bay. Situated in Old Bay means you are in the best part of the village with everything you need - from the beach to cosy pubs and restaurants - all just a short amble away. Sleeping four people in two double bedrooms, Millbrook is a wonderfully welcoming cottage for friends or families. And with its own parking space and pretty outdoor seating area (a real rarity in these parts), it promises to be the most memorable of stays.

Head inside to the cosy sitting room with elegant sash windows, a cosy sofa and open fireplace, it’s a beautifully welcoming space. Spend your evenings watching television or explore the shelves that are well-stocked with a great selection of books and board games. There’s also a small dining table - the perfect spot for an intimate supper or impromptu jigsaw challenge.

The small kitchen has been well put together with bespoke units and solid oak worktops. It’s also very well equipped with a full oven, induction hob, dishwasher, fridge, microwave, separate freezer (in the under stairs space) and plenty of pots and pans.

Head up the staircase to the first floor where you'll find the first double bedroom and family bathroom. The bedroom is light and airy with the most fantastic views out over the rooftops. The iron bedstead is perfectly dressed in crisp white linen and a cosy blanket. Whilst the ornamental fireplace, painted beams and wood-clad walls means the room is filled with character. The bathroom is well appointed with delightful handmade tiles, bath and overhead shower.

The second double bedroom and ensuite WC are on the third floor. Being in the eaves, the room is simply charming. Take a peek out of the window to take in the most spectacular views out over the village, beach and moors beyond.

Situated ten metres from the cottage, Millbrook has its own wonderful secret terrace. To get outside space in Old Bay is rare and this beautiful private patio means you get your own exclusive area to drink in the views out over the village. It’s the perfect spot for your late-morning cup of tea or evening drinks. There’s also a well-stocked coal and log store for the open fire in the lounge.

With its beautiful central location, Millbrook is gorgeously placed to enjoy the wonderful delights of this pretty fishing town. With plenty of tearooms, artist studios, independent shops and pubs, there’s plenty to keep you busy. Head to the beach at low tide - with its myriad of rock pools, it’s a great spot for fossil hunting. And with stunning coastal walks and the Cleveland Way footpath both within easy reach, there’s plenty of ways for you to get out and explore this fabulous part of Yorkshire.
