'Awd Tuts'
Cottages consist of two beautiful properties in the North Yorkshire
seaside town of Whitby.
Riverside Cottage is a modern styled property ideally located
overlooking the River Esk from its vantage point beneath the old
coastal railway viaduct. It is a picturesque location providing
opportunities to spot many wild birds and river animals (including
seals) from the riverbank or from the first floor balcony of the
cottage while sipping a glass of wine! Riverside Cottage sleeps
up to 6 persons comfortably and offers superb centrally-heated
accomodation with all required amenities.
Awd
Tuts Cottage is our second cottage, situated in the very heart
of Whitby's 'old town' with its cobbled streets and quaint shops,
just metres away from beautiful Whitby harbour. Awd Tuts is a
17th century cottage and was originally built in the year 1640.
Awd Tuts Cottage sleeps up to 5 persons and offers comfortable
'old world' charm but with all modern amenities.
Both of our
cottages in Whitby offer exceptional accommodation, style, cleanliness,
and value for money. Whitby is contained within the North Yorkshire
Moors National Park close to the nearby resorts of Sandsend, Staithes,
Robin Hoods Bay and Scarborough. Our self-catering cottages are
well maintained by the owners, Mike & Louise, for that extra
personal touch. Our cottages in Yorkshire offer you that perfect
home from home whether it be for a family gathering or a romantic
getaway for couples wanting to be alone. Whitby
harbourside at night is a great place to enjoy a fantastic
atmosphere with many exceptional reataurants, pubs and tavernas.

The historic fishing village of Whitby, with its magnificent
beach, safe bathing and varied holiday pastimes, is situated
in a prime position on the North Yorkshire Coast. Just inland
is the beautiful North Yorks Moors National Park, the perimeter
of which is easily accessible from a network of major roads.
However, once within the park's 550 square miles of forests
and wild moorland which rises to a plateau height of 1000ft
there is a magical air of peace, quietness and solitude.
In
cultivated valleys, small streams meander to meet the River
Esk through tiny hamlets. To the nature lover, the moor and
coast offer a spectacle of scenic views, secluded picnic spots
and a variety of nature trails for observation of plant life,
birds and animals. The rugged coastline provides a fascinating
panorama of small sandy coves, interspersed with the sea cliffs
which rise some 600ft. to meet the moorland. Huddled at the
base of some of these cliffs, or precariously perched on the
sides, unique fishing villages and old smuggling centres such
as Staithes, Runswick Bay or Robin Hood's Bay, offer striking
comparison to the moorland villages such as Goathland (famous
as Aidensfield Village in Heartbeat), Danby or Castleton, where
sheep and curlew are sometimes one's only company.
There
is a galaxy of historic abbeys, monasteries, priories and castles
within the area while sections of the original Roman Road still
remain on the moor, as well as many moorland crosses, which
acted as traveller's signposts, passing points or centres of
religious ceremony in days gone by.
Fishing can be enjoyed at sea, from the River Esk and reservoirs.
Many local fishermen offer pleasure boat trips or fishing parties
departing from Whitby harbour daily. There are a number of horse-riding
establishments and golf courses in the vicinity. Steam locomotives
of the North Yorkshire Moors Railway can carry you through the
unique ice-age valleys of the National Park whilst inland and
in Whitby itself, local craftsmen still produce take-home souvenirs
such as wood carving, pottery, jet jewellery, paintings and
craft items.
