Steak & Egton

If you're after proximity to the coast and a peaceful countryside setting, this home may be your perfect match. Welcome to the quaint village of Egton, about five miles west of Whitby, where you can explore the surrounding natural landscape or access the amenities of the seaside in just a short drive. While it may look like a traditional terraced cottage from the outside, it's been refurbished to high standards and furnished with style, so we guarantee you'll look forward to coming back to it after a day spent exploring the the North York Moors or at the beach. We picture ourselves cooking up a feast in the high-spec kitchen before retiring for a well-earned bubble bath in one of the two stunning clawfoot bathtubs. Featuring a secret snug filled with floor cushions and also a bunk bedroom, it would suit a large family with some younger members.

Home truths:
* A well-behaved dog is welcome in this home, but let your host know in advance
*The kitchen could do with some more basics like tea towels and cutlery
