When it comes to idyllic homes, Woodbine Cottage has to be up there with the best if your best things in life are sea air, coastal walks and good food on the doorstep.
This dreamy cottage is in the heart of stylish Sandsend in a position that lets you take in the comings and goings of this bustling coastal village yet still means you’re just a few steps away from woodland tranquility.
The picture-postcard cottage is par of a terrace of former fishermen’s cottages that are a shell's throw from a beach that is great for swimmers, surfers and rockpoolers. They also nestle close to the pretty valley that leads into Mulgrave Woods.
Gourmets will love the fact that Woodbine’s near neighbours include a great pub, fine dining restaurant, a seafood shack and great cafes.
The 19th century cottage sleeps four and enjoys private front and terrace gardens to take in the sea breeze and coastal views.
Definitely a year-round destination, it will be a lively place to be in summer but winters away at Woodbine Cottage are just as appealing thanks to its rustic furnishings and traditional woodburning stove, making it cosy and welcoming throughout the colder months.
The property is kitted out with everything you'll need to have the perfect stay. Its fully equipped kitchen boasts an enormous oven and hob, coffee maker, fridge and freezer and expansive farmhouse-style dining table. Fresh coffee is also provided, which is a lovely touch for guests who need that morning brew to start the day.
Open plan living space means the kitchen flows seamlessly into Woodbine Cottage's living area with comfy, homely sofas and TV. On sunny days it’s time to open up the bi-fold doors to make the most of a sweet garden terrace for those sundowner cocktails.
Additionally, the property features two bedrooms, with one twin room and one double bedroom, both with ensuite toilets.
