Unusual cottage in a lovely fishing village

This is an unusual and cozy cottage in a beautiful location. We enjoyed our stay very much and Jane was very helpful. We were warned about the seagulls but once inside their noise didn't bother us at at all

Perfect cottage in staithes

We loved this cottage. It was in a really peaceful location but above all was so fantastically equipped. The lounge area was very comfortable and the kitchen had everything that was needed (and more). If we were staying in Staithes again we’d stay here. The host was very communicative thrombosis the booking process all the way through until we arrived which made things very easy.

Comfy cottage

This cottage is one of the best equipped I have ever stayed in - from practical things to little treats like the bottle of wine and hotel style toiletries in the bathroom. In a great location in the heart of Staithes, we were able to head off for walks along the Cleveland Way as well as enjoy food at the Cod and Lobster.

A cosy,relaxing haven that left the stresses of life behind.

Immediately you felt at home but the sound of the gulls and lapping water were constant happy reminders that you were away.We were looking for a destressing experience after a busy Christmas and before the festivities of the New Year and that is what we found.The property is instantly user friendly ,everything is high quality, with everything we needed.Location is superb .We parked the car on a Friday lunchtime and didn't use it until Monday morning.We found plenty to do by just walking out of the cottage.Garden a bonus as we had good enough weather to be able to sit out.Overall we highly rated our stay and would definitely return.The owners contact and good information simplified our stay in every way.

Lovely cottage in a lovely location

Everything about the cottage was perfect - very well equipped and comfortable. Jane was very responsive to queries. Beautiful sun trap garden to have a cup of tea in after long walks along the coast. If you are not familiar with Staithes - it is hilly - but beautiful. Cannot park at the cottage (not unusual for Staithes) but in reality, easy to load/unload and to find alternative parking.

Beautiful quaint cottage!

The cottage is wonderfully maintained, clean and welcoming. My partner and I booked it for a little weekend visit to Staithes. It was well stocked for everything that you could need and the perfect place for a weekend away. It was a little tricky to find at first but super helpful people pointed us in the right direction. One thing I would remind people of is make sure you have written down the code to get in... although prewarned by Jane about phones not working... I didn't think about not having access to my emails and therefore the information required. Staithes itself is very picturesque with a couple of lovely pubs, we would certainly recommend the quiz at the Royal George on the Friday and the food at both the Cod and Lobster and the Royal George.

Beautiful little cottage with all mod cons. We were rather daunted by the list of Do's and Don'ts!

The cottage is perfect (great beds, excellent bathrooms, WiFi) and in a very good location. However, rather off-putting are the lists and signs of Do's and Don'ts - some of them written in red capital letters with exclamation marks! or underlinings e.g. "UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES DO ... ," DO NOT .. YOU will be liable for the repair bill!' Surely there are friendlier and more welcoming ways of keeping even anti-social guests in check.

summer in historical yorkshire coastal village

Classic English cottage in middle of historical fishermans village at the brim of North Yorkshire National Park. Cottage is well equiped according to former British standards, so continental travelers should carry their own foreign accessories themselves. Location is unique and pittoresque. The cliffs and nearby moors are magnificent. And after a while you'll get used to the lively backround noises of numerous seabirds.

Why they chose this property

Fell in love with this house at first sight, but spent 3 months with the builders doing serious renovation to bring it up to date and to make it a safe place to stay.

What makes this property unique

Totally unique house, one of the oldest in the village and previously would have been home to fisherfolk.
Now it has 2 lovely ensuite bedrooms, a modern kitchen and comfortable seating area.
