Fernleigh is an elegant Victorian villa in Robin Hood’s Bay, thoughtfully designed for families, friends, and special gatherings. Sleeping up to twelve guests (a maximum of ten adults plus two children), the house offers six beautifully appointed bedrooms: three en-suite doubles, one en-suite twin, and a generous family suite with a double bedroom, children’s bunk room, and private shower room. One of the area’s few large holiday homes, Fernleigh provides exceptional space both indoors and out, along with off-street parking for one car, space for a small second car, and additional on-street parking when available.
Set on Mount Pleasant South in the Upper Bay, three south-facing bedrooms enjoy sweeping sea and bay views. At garden level, double doors open onto a private, enclosed outdoor space with seating, dining table, and BBQ, perfect for relaxed summer evenings. Inside, the house blends period elegance with modern comfort, featuring a grand living room with open fireplace and Smart TV (plus Nintendo Switch 2), a spacious dining room with log burner, a fully equipped kitchen with modern Miele appliances centred around a contemporary range cooker, and a snug with iMac workstation. Throughout the house, furnishings are sourced from local Yorkshire craftspeople and finished in carefully chosen Farrow & Ball colours.
Each bedroom is dressed with White Company duvets and pillows, complemented by Yorkshire-made soft furnishings from the Yorkshire Blanket Company. High-speed Wi-Fi, full gas central heating, an EV charger, and thoughtful family-friendly touches including baby equipment and a dog-friendly layout ensure a comfortable stay for every guest.
On arrival, guests are welcomed with a locally inspired hamper including coffee and cake, setting the tone for a warm Yorkshire stay.
