About this property

Charming, spacious cottage with stunning views of Staithes and the harbour

Fully renovated in 2018, Burton Cottage is a traditional fisherman’s cottage sitting in a unique location in Staithes and boasts magnificent views of the old village and harbour from the panoramic living room window. Within the cottage there is a fully modernised separate skylit kitchen, extremely spacious living and dining room complete with multi-fuel stove, 6ft farmhouse dining table, television and DVD player and a classical and retro vinyl collection for you to enjoy. The master bedroom is adorned with a luxurious king size bed and there are twin beds in the second bedroom. Renovated to a high standard whilst at the same time embellishing the character and style, Burton Cottage possesses all the curves and charm one would expect to find in a period property. The cottage is suitable for couples and families, we provide stair gates, children’s toys and books and a high chair and cot on request. This is a pet friendly cottage, with free unlimited WiFi and a car parking permit is provided. Please note that you can not directly park outside the property. You can park nearer for unloading purposes and then the car park is a 5 min walk away.

As a holiday destination Staithes has much to offer, whether it be a rich and thriving artistic scene, a fascinating industrial past, a stunning coast line full of fossils and cliff top walks, fantastic fresh seafood and a number of fine hostelries both on the sea front and inland.

Suffused with the magic of Staithes, Burton Cottage provides the perfect base to discover the secrets of the old village and the North York Moors or simply sit by the log burner watching the ebb and flow of the tide whilst luxuriating in the opportunity to get away from it all.

We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at Burton Cottage. There is a great seaview from the cottage and it is full of character and was very well equipped for our needs. Staithes is quaint and friendly with two good pubs that serve food. Staithes was surprisingly quiet when we were there, as we were so well sheltered from the strong southwesterly winds.

We had a wonderful stay in this cosy cottage with wonderful views of the harbour. The reading nook was a lovely touch and we all enjoyed retreating to it to read or listen to music. Sitting by the fire after a day walking along the Cleveland Way, beachcoming or mooching around the delightful cobbled streets and alleys, sipping a glass of wine was just too good to be true. A lovely touch by the hosts to provide wine and biscuits on arrival. We all hope to Return to Staithes and Burton cottage again soon.

About the host

Hosted by Sinead Sutcliffe

Host profile image
We are a couple from Leeds, West Yorkshire with a young family.

Why they chose this property

The moment you walk through the front door of Burton Cottage and see the view from the large living room window you will realise why this is such a wonderful place to stay within Staithes. I have been coming to Staithes for the past 30 years. My father made the brilliant decision to purchase Burton Cottage in the early 1980s and recently my wife and I have worked hard and succeeded in fully renovating the cottage to a standard that befits it’s unique location.

What makes this property unique

The panoramic view from the living room is arguably the best in Staithes. Very recently modernised. Period charm and character maintained. Warm and conformtable. Child friendly.
