Located at the foot of Lythe bank Sandsend is a picturesque village with cottages set against a backdrop of cliffs and two meandering streams which lead to the sandy beach.
The beach featured as one of Britain's 20 best beaches by Telegraph Travel in July 2011, Sandsend beach is ""Set against a backdrop of grassy cliffs, where the wide sweep of beach from Whitby ends, this stretch is quieter and prettier than its famous neighbour. Children play in the little becks that flow across the sand and ducks waddle across the green in charming Sandsend village. This is a great place for fossil hunting at low tide.""
The village is served by a local shop, Sandsend Stores, and Tides Beach Shop (with surf school) (email: sandsendsurfschool@hotmail.co.uk; ). There are also excellent restaurants (such as Estbek House with its award winning restaurant and extensive fine wine selection, www.estbekhouse.co.uk), The Hart Inn which is a traditional pub with good food, teashops and an art gallery.
About 2 miles to the south is the historic fishing town of Whitby: dominated by the cliff top ruins of its 13th century Abbey and famous for its connections with Captain Cook and Dracula. There are many good restaurants there and numerous very good fish and chips shops including the celebrated Magpie Cafe. There is a good golf course on the cliffs between Sandsend and Whitby. Further to the south is Robin Hoods Bay and the lovely Victorian seaside town of Scarborough (home to the Stephen Joseph Theatre where Alan Ayckbourn premieres all his plays).
A visit to the area would not be complete without a trip to the North Yorkshire Moors (the spectacular scenery was featured on Richard Wilson's 'Great British Drives' programme). The NYMR steam railway operates between Whitby and Pickering taking in some tremendous scenery which featured in the popular television series ""Heartbeat"" and the James Herriot books.

A great place to stay
By Meg on 19-Jul-2025We had a great stay at the Pavillion with our multi generational family. There were 6 adults and 4 children. The Pavillion was clean and spacious, with each bedroom having a bathroom. The garden out front is large and the grassed area was perfect for summer games. The large patio area and table and seats area made a great area for outside eating and barbecues. We spent lots of time on the beach which was close by. It's down a small slope, close by if you forget anything. There a several cafes nearby all have a great selection coffees and cakes. A great place to stay
Perfect home for a holiday next to the sea
By Sarah on 21-Jun-2025We loved our stay at this home. Plenty of space for all the family with lots of space for everyone. Less than a 5 minute walk to the beautiful beach which also has dog friendly areas all through the summer. Some of the rooms are en suite as well as other bathrooms in the home. Beautiful views across the sea and a large garden. The village has various cafes and shops in easy walking distance. We loved it here and would absolutely recommend for a family holiday.
