Boggle Hole, located near the historic fishing village of Robin Hood's Bay in North Yorkshire, offers a picturesque retreat in a traditional Yorkshire farmhouse. This charming property is part of a small complex at South House Farm and is ideally situated just a five-minute walk from the sandy cove of Boggle Hole. With stunning south-facing gardens that provide panoramic views of the coastline towards Robin Hood's Bay and Ravenscar, the farmhouse accommodates up to eight guests across six spacious bedrooms, making it perfect for family gatherings.
The interior of the farmhouse features characterful rooms that blend modern amenities with traditional charm. A stone-flagged entrance leads to a boot room, utility, and cloakroom, while the well-equipped country kitchen boasts a large electric traditional-style range cooker and an inviting solid beech dining table. The separate dining hall, furnished with a solid oak table that seats eight, is perfect for shared meals and conversations. The elegant sitting room, with ample comfortable seating and a replica cast-iron electric stove, opens onto a private terrace, enhancing the property’s inviting atmosphere.
On the first floor, guests will find four spacious bedrooms, including a luxurious super king-size room with an en-suite shower and dressing room, while a charming single room is perfect for children. The modern family bathroom features a double basin, shower, and a stunning free-standing bath, with most bedrooms offering breathtaking views of the sea and coastline. The second floor presents an open-plan area ideal for families, with a double bedroom adjoining a twin room, complemented by an en-suite bathroom.
Outside, the tranquil garden serves as a peaceful haven surrounded by wooded valleys and streams, teeming with wildlife such as roe deer and nesting birds. The nearby beach at Boggle Hole is famous for fossil hunting and rock pooling, and historically, it served as a landing spot for smugglers. Visitors can explore the quaint cobbled streets of Robin Hood's Bay, enjoying local tea rooms, and take a short drive to Whitby, known for its narrow streets and the ruins of St. Hilda's Abbey. The property not only promises a memorable family holiday but also aligns with the commitment of South House Farm holiday cottages to sustain the environment within the North Yorkshire Moors National Park.
