If we told you to imagine a postcard-perfect coastal village, you'd probably picture something like Runswick Bay. Cute clusters of red-roofed cottages hug a sheltered stretch of sandy beach, where you can do all the lovely seaside things - explore rock pools, go on coastal walks at sunset and, of course, consume copious amounts of ice cream. After a hard day breathing in all that fresh sea air, this cabin is a welcome base to return to. Making memories with loved ones is easy in the open-plan living space, while two sun-kissed terraces are perfect for leisurely breakfasts and even more leisurely evening drinks. Nippy nights are no bother when you're curled up on the sofa by the fire. And if you've fallen for this area's seaside charms, you are well positioned to explore the nearby coastal gems of North Yorkshire, including Whitby, Staithes, Sandsend and Saltburn-by-the-Sea.
