The small village of Lythe is quaint and relaxed. It is perfectly located on the North Yorkshire coast - just a short 20-minute walk to Sandsend and less than 10-minutes into Whitby by car. Lythe sits on the Cleveland Way so you can uncover a haven of woodland and moorland during your stay. Sandsend sits at the end of almost 3 miles of sandy beach, west along the bay from Whitby. Watch the surfers bob in the distance as you stretch your legs along the shores. Soak up the sea air as you feel the sand beneath your toes. Head into Whitby and explore everything the seaside town has to offer. Visit the infamous Whitby Abbey which went on to inspire Bram Stoker’s gothic novel ‘Dracula’. Try the local catch of the day in one of the many fish restaurants, enjoy a drink in a cosy pub and feel nostalgia in the arcades which line Pier Road. You can’t miss the beautiful Blue Flag West Cliff beach which is complete with colourful huts on the promenade.
You can explore Lythe on foot and the coastal village of Sandsend is just a short 20-minute walk away. Hop on the X4 bus from Goldsborough Lane and you can visit beautiful villages like Runswick Bay and Staithes easily with the final stop at Whitby. Whitby train station is around 15-minutes away via car so villages and towns along the North Yorkshire coast can easily be reached via rail. There’s also a taxi rank in close proximity to the train station.

Lovely Cottage Large bedrooms Very nicely decorated Garden needed a mow and only had a picnic table, area was so peaceful and weather was fab, we would have liked more comfy outdoor seating ( 7 of us squished around a picnic table)
Property just off the main road through Lythe, easy to miss on first attempt, .first impressions the gardens weren’t maintained when we arrived, if elderly in party walkway through back door and gate garden tricky with gravelled walkway. As described inside property bedrooms spacious, living room and kitchen. Location ideal to Sands End, Whitby saltburn, runswick bay…wouldn’t class the walk down to Sands End as moderate hill as quite steep and not recommended for elderly , also after a pleasant afternoon, evening,you wouldn’t relish the walk back up. Gardener did turn up on 3rd day of our 4 night break and cut the front and side garden then left the back garden.? Great village shop 2 minutes away with home made cakes pastries. Overall enjoyed the stay and the above comments just info for other holiday makers to consider
