What guests think
Across the reviews, guests praise Charming, spacious cottage with stunning views of Staithes and the harbour for its characterful, well-equipped interiors and standout harbour views, plus a central location handy for the beach, pubs, and Cleveland Way walking.
Many find it comfortable and more spacious than expected, with a large main bedroom and thoughtful touches like a log burner, records, and welcome treats. Hosts are described as helpful and responsive, with clear instructions and a useful parking permit. Common trade-offs include steep village access, no vehicle access to the door, carrying luggage from uphill parking, steep internal stairs, and for taller guests a low-ceilinged bathroom and some older, draughty windows. Overall, expect a relaxing stay best suited to guests comfortable with hills and stairs.

Facilities
Well-equipped kitchen, log burner, and thoughtful welcome touches are appreciated. Parking permit helps, but there is no vehicle access to the door and the car park is uphill, so luggage and access can be challenging.

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.

Lovely house in great location - had everything you needed in the kitchen and property even including a colection of crabbing buckets and nets that the children loved. Staithes itself is beautiful and a real hidden gem - the house could not be in a more central location.

An idyllic village setting, the kids couldn’t have been happier with the distance to the harbour where they spent most of their time rock pooling and messing about in the sea. The dogs were also big fans of the fact that the property was only a stones throw away from the beach. It was a bit of a hike up the hill to park the car every day but we were made aware of that before we booked so knew what we were letting ourselves in for! A few issues with cleanliness when we first arrived (had to wash a few things up out of the cupboard, floors were not the cleanest and the top floor shower was blocked!) but overall an excellent place to holiday and would not think twice about staying here again!

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 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.

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.

a nice quiet place (except for the seagulls), everything in this small village is well in reach. The flat is tastefully furnished and was spotless clean. Tableware, glasses, cutlery though seemed to be a bit random and had to be found anywhere in the kitchen. With 250 € per night the flat is overpriced in my view.

Special property Great position in the village great views. Easy to book. Record player and fire a great combo. Stayed in December and it was Decorated for Christmas which was lovely. 10/10 for everything The only thing needed is an analogue map of the village so know where proud is. No mobile phone reception in the village and until you check in you don’t have access to wifi

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
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 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.

Central in Staithes near the harbour, beach, pubs, and Cleveland Way, with lovely sea and harbour views. Drawbacks include a steep hill, no vehicle access to the cottage door, and carrying luggage from uphill parking.

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.

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.

Lovely house in great location - had everything you needed in the kitchen and property even including a colection of crabbing buckets and nets that the children loved. Staithes itself is beautiful and a real hidden gem - the house could not be in a more central location.

An idyllic village setting, the kids couldn’t have been happier with the distance to the harbour where they spent most of their time rock pooling and messing about in the sea. The dogs were also big fans of the fact that the property was only a stones throw away from the beach. It was a bit of a hike up the hill to park the car every day but we were made aware of that before we booked so knew what we were letting ourselves in for! A few issues with cleanliness when we first arrived (had to wash a few things up out of the cupboard, floors were not the cleanest and the top floor shower was blocked!) but overall an excellent place to holiday and would not think twice about staying here again!

We enjoyed our stay at this adorable cottage in charming Straithes. Good food within walking distance. We would definitely recommend it to others. Note: There is a steep hill into town and parking only to load and unload your car. Also the cottage is three levels with narrow staircases. Not for the mobility challenged.

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.
