Oakridge, Staithes

Oakridge5 bedrooms, Sleeps 10 + 1 Baby.

Big family weekends and friend get-togethers fit Oakridge particularly well: it sleeps 10 in 5 bedrooms with 4 bathrooms, and the bedroom setup is flexible thanks to zip-link beds in every room. There is one ground-floor bedroom beside a shower room, while upstairs the principal rooms are more indulgent, including one en-suite with both a spa bath and walk-in shower, and another with a roll-top bath. An electric fire warms the sitting room, and a conservatory gives you another place to spread out.

Meals and lazy evenings are clearly part of the appeal here. The open kitchen and dining space centres on an Aga, with a breakfast area, American-style fridge/freezer and patio doors straight to the garden, so it is easy to move between cooking, eating and outdoor time. The enclosed lawn and patio include a stone-built barbecue and a private hot tub for six, with an extra quiet corner at the far end when the group wants a breather. Dog owners are well catered for too, with up to 3 pets welcome.

Hinderwell is a village with excellent local amenities including a good butchers, convenience store, a local pub and a tea room all just a short walk from your doorstep.

This quaint village is just a mile from the picturesque fishing village of Runswick Bay, which boasts a sandy cove with opportunities for fossil hunting and rock pooling, yet right in the North York Moors National Park. Head north or south on the Cleveland Way and visit some of the amazing coastal gems such as Staithes, Robin Hood’s Bay, Sandsend or Saltburn.
The bustling town of Whitby is a short drive or bus ride away where you will find so much to see and do. There is a 3 mile stretch of golden sandy beach, traditional amusement arcades and regular boat trips out to sea in search of minke whales and dolphins. There are many bistros and restaurants ranging from award-winning fish and chips to fine dining as well as tea rooms, coffee shops and pubs with live music.

If you’re feeling energetic why not attempt the 199 steps up to the abbey that towers over Whitby.
You can drive inland to enjoy the natural beauty and some amazing heritage sites such as abbeys and monasteries within the National Park or catch a steam train as it snakes through the lush countryside to destinations such as Goathland and Pickering. There is a huge diversity of things to do in the area from surfing to golfing, and there is an abundance of walking and cycling tracks. The more traditional seaside town of Scarborough is just along the coast with its two huge bays, and the walled city of York is well worth a visit. Beach ¾ mile.
