Fantastic property, so lucky to have found such a hidden gem for Easter. Lovely location, next to the beck and the beach and only minutes from all Staithes has to offer. Lovely comfortable bedrooms, very clean on arrival, well stocked kitchen and fantastic bathrooms, a real fusion of tradition and modern and enjoyed by our family and dogs. Great WiFi, lovely fire and selection of games or smart TV options. Comfy bedding, warm and inviting and we absolutely loved it. Top tip is to use the coastal path to get to and from the carpark, much more scenic and manageable than the steep road and you get to see some of the illusion trail and the boat house, steps are up by the museum. Loved talking the dogs to the beach in the morning, found some wonderful fossils and unusual shells. Perhaps we've been spoiled in the past but I think welcome baskets are customary now in holiday let's and the logs provided were minimal. The shop had shut by the time we got to check in so either an option of paying for logs and kindling etc would be helpful. Parking was around £40 for four nights which have unlimited use of the carpark at the top of the road. We managed to drop off and pick up during a very busy bank holiday weekend and it is part of the staithes experience!
