Across recent reviews, Charming, spacious cottage with stunning views of Staithes and the harbour is praised for its breathtaking harbour outlook, cosy character, comfortable spaces, and convenient village location, with many highlighting a well equipped kitchen for easy self catering.
Guests often praise spotless upkeep and a responsive, helpful host, with clear instructions and welcome treats. Common caveats include steep, winding stairs, low bathroom ceilings that make showers tricky for taller guests, and no vehicle access requiring a walk from the car park. Several appreciated the provided parking permit and the cosy log burner after coastal walks. Overall, expect a relaxing, view led stay in a characterful cottage.

Little semi detached property, ideally positioned to explore the village and surrounding areas. Car park is about 100 yards away, accessed via small footpath. The house is well furnished and comfortable, lovely kitchen and bedrooms. We used the fire stove at night and had to have the electric wall heaters on all the time. The bathroom was a real challenge, low ceiling meant i could not stand in the shower, the shower did not work properly and the bathroom had no heating. Great unspoilt view of the harbour and open sea. The Cod and Lobster pub a very short walk offered great food and company. We loved our stay at the property and left with a heavy heart. A word to the wise if you have any mobility condition then this will not be for you.

The photos don’t do the place justice. It’s much bigger than it looks. Huge bedroom and generous fully equipped kitchen. Arguably the best views in Staithes. The inconvenience of carrying to and from the car park is soon forgotten when relaxing in the comfy chairs in front of the fire listening to records. Perfect for when the weather closes in. Spotlessly clean and great as long as you’re not too tall or struggle with steps. Have already recommended to a friend! Thanks.

A nicely renovated and well presented cottage with a fabulous view of the harbour from the dining table. A real delight to have a lazy breakfast whilst watching the goings on. Unfortunately the local electrical company had temporarily closed the top path to the cottage so our legs were tested by the hill over the week - probably good for us though!

This is a lovely cottage set back from the main street, it is accessed via various steps and alleyways which our children loved exploring (favourite was discovering they ended up in Dog Loup!). Situated roughly halfway between Bank Top Cark Park and the Harbour Front it makes easy walking whichever way you need to go. House was spotless, lovely welcome treat left for us and comfy beds. Kitchen is a lovely size, equipped with everything you need. Views from the living room absolutely spectacular, it was nice to just sit and watch the harbour. Children loved the attic bedroom with its own spectacular views. Such a wonderful cottage, we'll definitely be back!

Burton cottage is ideally placed, 2 minutes into the village and 2 minutes up to the Cleveland Way. And fantastic views out to sea. It had everything you’d need in terms of facilities; the (Emma) bed was very comfortable; and there’s plenty of space in the living area. Not an issue for us 60 year olds, but the stairs are quite steep so one to be aware of.

As everyone says this cottage has a great view which is true and we spent a great deal of time looking at it when in the cottage. The living room and kitchen are well laid out and have great headroom, just beware of the steps to the kitchen as although well signposted took a few days of head banging to get used to the height. First floor and a mvery good size bedroom with great views, just make sure you are wearing something appropriate before opening the curtains! The bathroom is compact and only my daughter could stand up straight in the shower due to the headroom but as long as you don’t want to spend ages in there it is fine. The second floor is sparsely furnished and is really only suitable for children as the headroom on the steps is very low, another nice view from the window. The car park is a 15 to 20 minute round trip when carrying luggage etc so I would recommend travelling light, which we didn’t.

Our four night stay at Burton Cottage fulfilled all our needs for an escape from our 'real world'. Everything was clean, comfortable and our creature comforts catered for. We were blessed with sunshine, but on the one cool day we succumbed and lit the log burner, it was super. As everyone mentions the views from the cottage are spectacular, so don't forget to bring your binoculars. The provision of the parking permit is a bonus, and encouraged us to leave our car there and venture out on foot along the Cleveland Way, and to use the local bus service. 3 single to Whitby, a bargain!localservicespeviewsspectacular

We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Burton Cottage, there is nothing that the owners haven’t thought of to make this a real home from home. Stunning views from the living room, great location within the village and cosy log burner. We only wish we could have stayed longer, can’t wait to return!

We have stayed at Staithes many times and this cottage is one of the best. The view is absolutely breathtaking and the King size bed was superb. The place was spotless. Plenty of hot water and was lovely and warm. A real treat for Christmas. However, it is a long way from the car park or the High Street to transport boxes of food and Christmas treats. The stairs in the cottage are extremely steep and polished so great care is needed. We had a wonderful time.

We really enjoyed our time here. The cottage is full of character and charm and is extremely clean. Loved sitting at the dining table with a glass of wine every evening to watch the magnetic view as day turned into night. Staithes is a good base to explore the area and the hike to the cottage from the top car park is not challenging and well worth the effort.

The cottage is absolutely gorgeous and has the most fantastic view across the harbour. It was spotlessly clean with beautiful décor, and the most comfortable bed we've ever slept in. We had planned to visit various places around the area but we found Burton Cottage so relaxing that we didn't venture further than Staithes and ended up spending the weekend exploring the village, enjoying coffee and cake in the local cafes, listening to the cottage's eclectic vinyl collection and spending a lot of time reading and gazing out of the window at that view! There's a certain magic about Burton Cottage that just makes you switch off from the outside world and relax. We can't wait to return.

I totally recommend Burton Cottage. Sinead, the owner is very helpful and clear with instructions. The location is amazing with a wonderful view of the bay from the lounge window. Very well appointed, with everything you could possibly require for your stay. Very kindly, our hosts also left a welcome pack.

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.

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.

This is a lovely cottage set back from the main street, it is accessed via various steps and alleyways which our children loved exploring (favourite was discovering they ended up in Dog Loup!). Situated roughly halfway between Bank Top Cark Park and the Harbour Front it makes easy walking whichever way you need to go. House was spotless, lovely welcome treat left for us and comfy beds. Kitchen is a lovely size, equipped with everything you need. Views from the living room absolutely spectacular, it was nice to just sit and watch the harbour. Children loved the attic bedroom with its own spectacular views. Such a wonderful cottage, we'll definitely be back!

Burton cottage is ideally placed, 2 minutes into the village and 2 minutes up to the Cleveland Way. And fantastic views out to sea. It had everything you’d need in terms of facilities; the (Emma) bed was very comfortable; and there’s plenty of space in the living area. Not an issue for us 60 year olds, but the stairs are quite steep so one to be aware of.

A really perfect place to experience Staithes as in the heart of the village with wide ranging views of the harbour and the sea! And close to pubs and shops.

We really enjoyed our time here. The cottage is full of character and charm and is extremely clean. Loved sitting at the dining table with a glass of wine every evening to watch the magnetic view as day turned into night. Staithes is a good base to explore the area and the hike to the cottage from the top car park is not challenging and well worth the effort.

We loved our stay at Burton Cottage which is very cosy and comfortable with great views. We slept very well in the comfy bed. Had some great walks on the Cleveland Way to Runswick Bay and Saltburn. Enjoyed sitting round the fire every evening after a few drinks and some great food at the Cod & Lobster and The Royal George which were both just a short stroll away. We hope to return!
