Escape to Sanders House, a beautifully restored three-storey cottage tucked away in the heart of Whitby—one of North Yorkshire’s most beloved coastal towns. Just steps from the golden sands of Whitby Beach and moments from vibrant cafés, shops, and historic landmarks, this charming retreat offers the perfect setting for unforgettable holidays with family, friends, or a romantic getaway for two.
Arrive via the characterful outdoor staircase and step inside to discover an inviting blend of comfort, heritage, and style. Rustic beams and original features pair seamlessly with thoughtfully designed, modern interiors. On the first floor, a sleek fully-equipped kitchen/diner with a wall-mounted Smart TV invites slow breakfasts, cosy evening meals, and laughter-filled gatherings. Next door, the welcoming sitting room offers plenty of space to unwind—sink into the plush corner sofa and settle in for movie nights after days spent exploring the coast.
Across the upper floors, four beautifully presented bedrooms await—two doubles and two twins—each designed to help you drift into a restful night’s sleep. Two bedrooms boast their own private en-suite bath or shower rooms, adding a touch of luxury to your stay.
Each morning, savour a refreshing shower and a warm cup of coffee before setting off to explore Whitby’s captivating charm. Wander through winding streets to Whitby Abbey, St Mary’s Church, the Whalebone Arch, and the famous 199 Steps, or simply enjoy the bustle of the harbour and the sweep of the shoreline.
Venture further afield along the dramatic coastline: discover the postcard-perfect village of Robin Hood’s Bay, enjoy the lively seaside attractions of Scarborough, or take a nostalgic journey on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway from nearby Pickering. For those seeking tranquillity, the enchanting Guisborough Woods and historic Guisborough Priory offer peaceful woodland walks and heritage charm.
And of course, no visit is complete without exploring the breathtaking North York Moors National Park, with its rolling heather, big skies, and some of the most inspiring landscapes in England.
With its unbeatable location, characterful interiors, and endless adventures on your doorstep, Sanders House promises a holiday you’ll treasure long after you leave.

Location could not be better. Set back off the main street enough by the close that it's quiet but it's in the dead middle of everything. Excellent coffee and other restaurants within steps out the close. Beach, boat tours super convenient. Walkable bliss in the heart of all that's best about Whitby. Also, absolutely cozy feeling inside. We loved it.
