Baywatch

Set beside the sands of Ravens Porth, Baywatch is a generous beach-house cottage with sea views across to St Martin’s, a large private garden and the shoreline quite literally at the bottom of the lawn.

At A Glance

The Cottage

This is a cottage made for gathering by the sea. Days can begin with a swim before breakfast, children can drift between garden and beach, and long lunches at The Ruin Beach Café are close enough to make cooking feel entirely optional. With Hut 62 boat hire, tennis courts and an indoor pool all nearby, Baywatch places the best of Old Grimsby wonderfully close at hand.

Inside, the cottage feels bright, relaxed and quietly stylish, with crisp whites, maritime touches and a calm coastal palette running through the living spaces and bedrooms. The lounge is warm and welcoming, with a log burner for cooler evenings and a playful boat-shaped bookcase that gives the room its own character.

Baywatch sleeps up to ten across five bedrooms, making it a natural choice for larger families or friends holidaying together. Flexible zip-linked beds can be arranged as superking or twin by prior request, while two bathrooms and a separate shower room help keep beach days running smoothly.

Outside is where Baywatch truly comes into its own. The garden wraps around the cottage before meeting the white sands of Ravens Porth below - a rare and wonderful setting for sandy feet, sea-air suppers, unhurried afternoons and the easy rhythm of life by the water.

Spacious, sociable and beautifully placed, Baywatch is a relaxed beachfront retreat for those who want the beach on the doorstep and Old Grimsby’s island life all around them.

Our Favourite Thing

We love the boat-shaped bookcase in the lounge almost as much as we love the unbeatable proximity to the beach.

The Location

The Ruin Beach Cafe is so close you might overhear the subtle clink of glasses from the garden if you listen closely. Opt out of cooking and tuck into a sharing platter on the terrace instead.
