Staithes is nestled amongst ancient cliffs at the coastal edge of the North York Moors National Park. The picturesque fishing village with winding alleys and cobble streets is popular with artists, photographers, walkers as well as those who enjoy the beach, café’s and pubs.
Seaton End Cottage is at the very heart of the village, right on the seafront, overlooking the beach.
Seaton End was traditionally a fishermans cottage, built over 300 years ago, and has been in our family for almost half a century. It is full of cosy charm with its original beams and open coal fire. With the beach, café, pub and beautiful walks on your doorstep it is the perfect place to enjoy a well-earned short break or holiday.
The cottage has 2 bedrooms, bathroom, living room, kitchen and small entrance area.
A small-medium sized well-behaved dog is very welcome.
Staithes has so much to offer. It’s a gorgeous fishing village with a cosy harbour; a destination for geologist and fossil hunters; and, perhaps most famously, the home of a community of well-known artists. The Staithes Group were active in the village in the late 19th centuries, often painting local scenes including fishermen’s wives in their distinctive draped cotton bonnets (which can still be seen being worn occasionally to this day). The group comprised up to 30 artists at any one time, including Dame Laura Knight, her husband Harold, Ernest Dade and Joseph R Bagshawe. And their legacy lives on. For the past few years, Staithes has staged an Arts Festival over an autumn weekend during which many homes and shops are converted into art galleries and pop-up cafes and street food stalls cater for the thousands of visitors who descend on the village.
