About this property
St Edmunds Church is a sympathetically restored church, now accommodating four guests for a self-catered stay, positioned in Fraisthorpe near Bridlington, a coastal harbour town. Enjoying a stylish interior, whilst preserving many original features, including the original 13th-century font, alter stone and amazing East window, the home offers the ideal base for a seaside escape for couples sharing or a group celebration. Benefit from off-road parking and an EV charging point. Be prepared to be wowed by the open-plan living space, adorning lofty ceilings, stained-glass windows, marble worktops, plush velvet sofas, and a well-equipped kitchen; use this space, dotted with luxury touches, to dine, relax, socialise, and plan your itinerary. Catch some rest in one of two double bedrooms, both enjoying elevated views over either end of the building, both well-appointed with beamed ceilings and serviced by a sleek shower room (the bedrooms do have sloping ceilings as built in the Church rafters). Awaken to an itinerary brimming with exploration, with the chance to visit the Bridlington North Beach & Promenade, Danes Dyke Beach, and the stunning Flamborough Headland Heritage Coast for coastal walks and the best vantage point. Stop off for a bite to eat in the local area, at The Cow Shed Café down on the local beach, Salt on the Harbour, or grab some delicious fish and chips and stroll along the beach, before travelling towards Filey, its beach, golf club and museum, offering something for everyone. Scarborough, Whitby and Robin Hoods Bay are keen areas of interest to explore, brimming with history and attractions, including Scarborough Castle, Cleveland Way, the ideal hiking area, and the manicured grounds of Peasholm Park, before heading for Dalby Forest, a gateway into the North York Moors National Park, or head inland towards the historic town of Beverley and city of York. Enjoy a unique base by booking St Edmunds Church.
Fraisthorpe is a small village, resting on the east coast, approximately 5 miles from the bustling coastal town of Bridlington. The village is well-positioned near the beach and the North Sea, approximately a mile away, where you’ll also find The Cow Shed Restaurant, a fabulous place to take in the coastal views and enjoy a bite to eat. When the tide allows, travel North to reach Bridlington across the coastal path, or south to Barmston, Skipsea and Hornsea. Nearby attractions include Burton Agnes Hall, a magnificent manor house home to a pretty walled garden, Bridlington Animal Park, Sewerby Park, Bridlington Sea Front and Promenade, and Bridlington Links Golf Course. Popular resorts including Filey and Scarborough can be reached by car, the ideal towns for families to explore, whilst the North Riding Forest Park and North York Moors National Park are within proximity and are recommended areas of interest for outdoor enthusiasts.

Mr Jason Gillingham
Location wise It has great walks for your best friend (dog), a walk to the beach only took around 25 mins or 4 mins by car the choice is yours but if walking take care as itâs the only road to the beach and most cars/vans do slow down for you

Beautifully renovated with a warm and cosy interior and all the amenities you could need for a relaxing break. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for that something different.

Very well equipped and comfortable for two. Lovely location but be warned that the walk to the beach down the track is a lot further than it looks on the map.
