Excellent accommodation, spacious, very comfortable and well equipped Views of sea from lounge and kitchen windows and of Abbey ruins in distance from bedroom window made it more enjoyable. Good pizza restaurant within stones throw across car park and easy walk along path above the sea and down into the town, although a little bit of a climb coming back up! Very good location to explore the northern part of the North York Moors. Would very much recommend this to anyone wishing to stay in the North East.
