This property was a highlight of my UK trip! Robin Hoods Bay is a sneaky charmer that absolutely steals your heart in less than 24 hours. Exploring the history, the footpaths, and the coastline was full of childlike wonder. The property itself was also full of fairytale charm! From listening to the seagulls walk across the roof tiles to spotting the secret door between the neighbouring houses this place was full of pleasant surprises. It is in the middle of a seagull roost area - which means the gulls are quite loud, but that is just part of its seaside charm I think. Communicating with the host was a bit confusing as they use a different hosting site and don't seem to always get VRBO messages, but there was nothing pressing that came up so it wasnt a make-or-break situation. One thing - when following the instructions to get to the cottage be aware that when it says "further down past the art shop" it actually means about two feet further down the hill but really almost directly across the street. I got extremely lost looking for the sign further down from the art shop and only ended up at Oakfield Cottage because a very nice shopkeeper saw me pushing my luggage bag up and down the hill infront of her shop multiple times and she asked if i was okay. When she heard which cottage I was looking for she locked up her shop and personally took me to it. She saved me a lot of despair that evening and everyone in RHB was equally kind and lovely.
