Sunnybank Thatch is a cosy, super clean and comfortable property with everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. We loved the luxurious bed in our room with quality bedding and the superior bathroom with plenty of soft fluffy towels.

The cottage is very wel equipted and we felt very welcome by the owners. The nearby coast is really stunning. And the Yorkshire Moors are really beautifull. We made a few long walks over the moors and along the coastline. The Bempton Cliffs (RSBP area) is a must-see location.

We really enjoyed our week in this comfortable and well equipped cottage which is in a great location. We could easily walk to the coast path and Hinderwell is on a good bus route between Whitby and o Saltburn which meant we didnt always have to drive to places we wanted to visit. Highly recommended.

A well presented cottage in a central location with the additional easy access to public transport (bus service) covering most of the coast, avoiding the need to always rely on a car. Pubs/restaurants in close proximity as well.
