Sanders Yard - A quintessential Yorkshire yard house with award-winning dining and scenic views

Located off the cobbled streets of Church Street, Sanders Yard offers four guest rooms and three holiday cottages, each with ensuite or private bathrooms. Rooms feature Botham's of Whitby biscuits, Yorkshire tea, and views over the Old Market Place or West Cliff. The quirky double bedroom in The Old Dispensary sits under beamed ceilings with a large circular window framing a wrought iron bed. A continental breakfast is available each morning at Sanders Yard Bistro, which serves home-cooked meals with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. The property includes a garden and outdoor eating area, and Whitby Abbey, the 199 steps, and sandy beaches are within walking distance. Free Wi-Fi is accessible throughout, and well-behaved dogs are welcome in designated cottages for an additional fee.

Pros

Sanders Yard resides in a nearly 400-year-old building with beamed ceilings and sash windows.

The property includes a courtyard dining area with covered tables and an outdoor heater.

Each accommodation option features locally sourced amenities, including Botham's biscuits and Yorkshire tea.

Well-behaved dogs are permitted in select cottages for a £10 nightly fee.
