A charming cosy cottage in a stunning location. Great communication with clear instructions on every aspect of our stay. A parking space outside the front door made such a difference too! Staithes is a magical little seaside village and looking out over the rooftops, the beck and the sea from our front terrace with a glass of chilled rose each evening was just perfect. We hope to return sometime soon.

What a little gem! We wanted to stay in a characterful little cottage for the weekend and that's exactly what we got. Felt right at home as soon as we stepped foot inside. You really do feel like you're staying in somewhere with a lot of history. Communication with the owner was excellent, including any special requests. Location is fab, so very picturesque, with the added benefit of parking immediately outside. The only thing which would have made the stay even more cosy would have been to have a roaring fire in the open hearth, but with it being the hottest weekend of the year, we decided against it! I imagine even at winter, this would be a lovely cosy place to stay. All in all, highly recommended & i will book to stay again in the future.

Thank you Jackie and Becky for a wonderfully relaxing week in Staithes! We had such a gentle time decompressing in such a beautiful spot.

The cottage is just lovely, and the views are spectacular! Morning tea on the bench was very special and memorable.

Being able to park outside or on the quay was a real bonus too.

Can’t wait to return! 😊

The cottage is gorgeous. Small, beautiful & fitted out in keeping with its age but also with luxurious modern fixtures. The kitchen is so cute & has a great feel about it. It has everything you need to be comfortable. It’s so nice to be supplied with little extras to make life more comfy e.g tea bags, coffee, sugar, kitchen roll, washing up liquid, and a special thank you for the cake!!
The lounge has a fabulous real fire that has a brilliant draw, so lighting it is easy. The tv is a great size and has Netflix!
A choice of lovely lamps is always a bonus. Upstairs the bed is REALLY comfortable and the bed linen is good quality. Double electric sockets next to each side of the bed is always a bonus.
The bathroom is fabulous - a huge walk in shower, a great washbasin and taps and towel rail. Good quality towels. Luxury soap!Things like this make such a difference. Rebecca is a credit to you Jackie, and you have been more than kind to us also. A big thank you for all you do x

This is a unique ancient cottage at the very heart of this incredibly beautiful village. We were happily surprised that the village was not busy and we were able to interact with the very friendly locals and staff in both pubs, the museum and neighbours. We felt very welcome at all times.
The fisherman’s cottage is on a steep hill which we feel would be very difficult for someone with limited mobility. However the parking permit included in the stay enables you to park right outside.
We had a wonderful stay and Rebecca the caretaker was VERY helpful.
We really enjoyed eating in The Cod & Lobster pub twice, their sea food menu was fantastic!
We are certain we will return to this cosy cottage very soon.

exactly like the description and photo. lovely cosy, well equipped,clean and comfortable cottage. instructions re access and parking very helpful. Everything had been thought about from parking permit, wine glasses, hand-wash,baco foil and even hot water bottles. The heaters were super efficient and we really enjoyed the open fire. we pre booked meals at The George and the Cod and Lobster prior to our stay and they didn't disappoint. Highly recommend a stay at Fisherman's cottage. Becky the housekeeper is an absolute star!

An absolutely beautiful cottage in a stunning location. It's the perfect place for a little break or longer get-away. The cottage is small, very cute and authentic, we loved it! The hosts were very helpful and easy to communicate with throughout the booking process, our stay and after. We 100% reccoment this location and this cottage! and would definitetly rebook, thank you!

We had the most fabulous stay at the cottage. super comfortable bed ,So quirky and the original features . Super photos, We enjoyed reading up about the whole history. Jackie was super helpful and recommended places to go. It’s a beautiful place to visit and we would love to return in the winter, Lots of seagulls which added to the experience and fantastic views to wake up to

We stayed three nights and found it comfortable and convenient for visiting Staithes,.
We had thick sea fog on one day so driving out was interesting!
We cooked our main meals in the evenings. Shopping in the bottom end of Staithes is limited but we had brought food with us.
It is a quaint cottage and the stairs were a bit of a challenge for our old knees but we managed!
Lovely to watch the tides and the river flow, especially after torrential rain. Walked to the beach, around the two breakwaters and dropped a donation into the RNLI. A must do visit is to the Staithes Museum, full of local history especially Captain Cook who took his apprenticeship in Staithes, it is run by lovely local volunteers and just a 5 minute walk away…. Free entry but please make a donation to help with their bills.

Jackie’s place is one of the favorite places I’ve ever stayed, and I’ve traveled a lot all over the world. I can’t say enough about the location, and the little town. It truly feels like you’re stepping back in time. I’m an artist and film maker, and have been working on a film and needed a space to be quiet and write, and this cottage could not have been more perfect. It is so, so quiet, I slept so well while I was there. Just so charming. Jackie and Max and her team were ever so helpful, not only while I was there, but for quite a while beforehand helping me to figure out trains and things how to get there from London. I loved it so much here that I hope to go back once a year for a retreat. It was chilly, and each night I lit a fire in the fireplace and curled up with books and my writing, and felt like I was in Heaven. Thanks so much Jackie for everything.

A truly wonderful place to stay. Perfect! The location is incredible and cottage magical. Thoroughly recommend lighting the fire for a cosy evening. Hosts are really responsive, check in easy and pre-arrival communications spot on to help you find the cottage. If you get the sunshine whilst you’re there, sit outside on the bench and drink in the most stunning views. I didn’t want to leave.

This is the most charming fishing cottage, it is just gorgeous and you feel instantly at home. The views are stunning and it is perfectly located for the village. It is just a couple of minutes walk across the bridge to the village centre. We loved an open fire ever evening when we got home from the pub . The sofa is very comfortable, the cottage although small, is the perfect for two and a real get away, away from the stresses of city life. We parked outside the house which is ideal. The cottage gets the sun in the morning which is lovely. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will return.

Lovely, captures days of years gone by…. But with all the amenities of a modern functional bathroom and kitchen ,without spoiling the old fashioned element of the cottage . Nice to make and sit infront of a real fire , which adds to the cosy atmosphere….. we like sitting on the bench outside to have a cuppa and breakfast listening to the seagulls and drinking in the wonderful veiws

Tina

A special place with a sense of history and great views
. Friendly communications ensured that we knew support would be there if required.
A wonderful place for us to rest and recharge our batteries with plenty of opportunities for walking or eating out ( although a well-equipped kitchen gave us a choice)
Would highly recommend.

I booked this stay as a Christmas present for my parents and they had a lovely time at the cottage. Jackie made the booking really easy and gave me all the information they’d need. The cottage is lovely with beautiful views and really close to everything you’d need in the village. They’ll be booking again soon!

Jackie’s place is absolutely delightful. We felt at home the minute we walked through the door. The view from each of the windows is breathtaking. The cottage was beautifully clean and well equipped. The ambience was really unique - it felt las if we had time travelled to another era, but had kept all mod cons to make our stay comfortable. We are already planning our return trip as we have fallen in love with Staithes and Jackie’s place too!

Tiny cottage, full of character. Great location with wonderful views of the harbour. Peaceful and serene the perfect spot to sketch or just sit and watch the tide come in and go out. The cottage was well equipped and an open fire was a bonus. We certainly enjoyed curling up by the fire with a book and a glass of wine. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return one day.

Having stayed at the Fisherman's cottages on previous occasions, we were familiar with what to expect. Always to a very high standard and excellent for that short break. We both absolutely love Staithes and find its tranquillity captivating.
The price hike seemed a little excessive hence the lower rating but we both needed a reset and paid the piper. Also, we were disappointed with the recent negative Yorkshire Life article about the village but that has no detraction on what Jackie and the team offer.

Another excellent stay and we look forwards to our next one in the future. We would always highly recommend Jackie's Fisherman's Cottages. Cheers

What a fantastic cottage, small and perfectly formed, and bursting with character.

The location was perfect, just a short hop over the footbridge to the village, and the bench in the front garden is the perfect spot to watch the world go by.

Excellent communication from Jackie from the start helped make it a perfect place to stay.

I have an inkling we'll be returning.

Thank you.

Amazing! lovely cottage with everything that we needed in a perfect location. We had a great time. Jackie was quick to respond to all our questions.
Lots of things to do in the area, for all ages. it seemed like a safe place for children to wander within close eye of their parents.
if (when) I visit again, I will remember my binoculars (were they dolphins swimming out at sea?) my fishing rod (mackerel being caught off the harbour wall) and will buy a fossil hammer. so many great things to do and a beautiful area for walking 🩵

What a wonderful little cottage, stunning views and easy access to the village of Staithes.
Perfect place for a relaxing time away. The cottage was clean and everything that you would need is at the he property.
Perhaps some milk in the fridge and tea and coffee would be nice if you are arriving after the shops in the village have closed.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back.

We had a truly fabulous stay. The cottage was picturesque and in a truly wonderful location. it was simply stunning. It was super comfy and so cosy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with everything needed for a perfect break in a beautiful part of the country. I would highly recommend Jackie's place for a comfortable stay being well equipped, so cosy and in a perfect setting. Jackie's instructions were easy to follow and we were made most welcome by everyone.

We had a lovely stay at Fishermans Cottage just after Easter. The cottage is well maintained, small but perfect for 2. Kitchen and bathroom were clean and we had good water pressure/ plenty of hot water. Wifi was great too. Heaters in bedroom and the living room are great as it was a chilly few days.
Location! Oh my goodness. Fabulous! Steps from the village, steps from the sea, overlooking beck, on the path of Cleveland Way . Very steep / narrow but we parked outside using the permit.
Staithes is amazing, everything you could want for a holiday - great beach, harbour, glorious views, coffee shops , cafes and pubs ( we drank in King George and ate at Cod and Lobster ( book if you can)

Communication was great with owners and , once there, the lady who manages the property too.

We have just had 2 nights in the Fisherman’s cottage for my birthday in Staithes and we didn’t want to leave!
It is the most gorgeous little house with so much history. And the location is perfect.
We ate at the cod and lobster one night and also had a drive along to Sandsend to go to the fish cottage which was gorgeous.
Thank you for the best stay

Fisherman's Cottage was a fabulous wee place. Although we're from the North East and mid-50's, we've never been to Staithes before. What a lovely little gem it is and Jackie's place was absolutely champion for the wife, our dog and me. Great location on the quiet side of the village looking onto the beck, a very short stroll to all the village has to offer. Open fire was very much liked and we lit it every night - back to childhood We have a large car and parked on the jetty at the bottom of the hill instead of outside the door, no problems there whatsoever. Couple of good pubs, nice wee selection of shops and other eateries. Stayed 3 nights and travelled around both full days we had there, lovely walks around and about the village with the dog. Met Jackie on arriving and she was very helpful, attentive and knowledgeable. All in all, a fabulous break and we will return. Alison, John and Misti from Northumberland

We enjoyed a brief break post New Year. It was very peaceful and relaxing and the dog loved it. Amazing location for walking parts of the Cleveland Way. If walking’s not possible bus services are currently only £2 single until 31/3/23 into Whitby and all along the NY coast. A fabulous break in an incredible location. And awaaaaaay....

Diane

04 Jan 2023

We enjoyed a lovely stay in Jackie's charming cottage. The views across the harbour were spectacular, such a treat to wake up to, and the bed is very comfy. Staithes is such a pretty village and is the perfect base for exploring the surrounding coast and countryside. We really enjoyed the short walk to Cobbles Cafe for our morning coffee and cake; the local deli is great too. We hope to return!

06 Aug 2022

A gorgeous little cottage with so much character and charm. We so enjoyed sitting on the outside bench taking in the splendid view!
Great communication with the host Jackie and it was a nice touch that Jackie popped by to say hello. The housekeepers were very helpful too.
You couldn't ask for a better location in such a beautiful village. Highly recommended.

Debbie

02 Jul 2022

I had a wonderful week at this charming cottage in a fantastic location. The cottage had everything I needed for a comfortable and relaxing break. Sitting on the bench outside with a cuppa and a book, watching the world go by, was great, as was following the Cleveland way down the coast to Runswick Bay and back, and up the coast to Skinningrove and back. Altogether a lovely time. I can highly recommend this as a place to stay, especially to lone travellers or couples.

Penny

18 Jun 2022

The cottage is small and cosy and in a lovely location. We loved sitting on the bench outside in the morning with a cup of tea or in the evening with a glass of wine as the view across Staithes towards the sea is superb. The facilities were good although we didn't spend a lot of time indoors as we were walking up and down the coast every day. You can walk up or down the coast from Staithes along the Cleveland Way. There is a good bus service along the coast so you don't need to do circular walks. The X4 runs between Whitby and Middlesborough, stopping in Staithes, and gives you good options to walk from A to B along the coast and get the bus back to the car.

We didn't cook as we used take-away options. There is a really good fish and chip shop (Excelsior) at the top of the village just off the main road, Cobbles cafe does a pizza take-away on Thursday and we had a good pie and chips meal at the Royal George pub. Incidentally, grab a table outside the Royal George for a drink on a sunny afternoon/early evening as it's a sun trap. We had another very good meal at the Cod and Lobster pub (which also does a take-away menu) and for something to keep you going if you are hiking, the butcher does excellent home-made pork pies and sausage rolls!

Having a parking space outside is really useful and I can recommend the Kangaroo hand car wash in Easington who must get a lot of business thanks to the seagulls! If you are a light sleeper, you may prefer to bring a fan and keep the bedroom window closed in summer as seagulls start the dawn chorus at about 4am but that is part and parcel of staying on the coast.

Communication was excellent and there is someone in the village to contact in case of problems although we were fine. We loved our stay!

Chris

Perfect location for a break in Staithes. The cottage is located on a steep incline but the positioning means the views are amazing! Also you are located on the Cleveland Way, great for walkers / runners.
The cottage sits really well and is ideal for a couple or single person and after talking to our neighbours it is in demand. We chose this cottage mainly as it was featured in BBCs Gone Fishing. I read previous comments about parking outside the cottage but can confirm we parked a VW Golf and our neighbours had a Range Rover Evoque with no problems even when the bin lorry came past. The parking space and permit is a huge bonus.
The cottage is pleasantly laid out and the kitchen is ideal and the washing machine and dryer are an added bonus as I was able to rinse out my running clothes after an early morning run. The seating area at the front of the cottage is a great place to unwind and watch the world go by and it has the sun most of the day. The only downside was the size of the sink in the bathroom as it was very small and the hot water came from a separate unit attached to the wall which I found sprayed out and made a simple face wash a task.
You are a stones throw from the main area of Staithes and a couple of nice cafes - Cobbles of Staithes and Dotty’s. Both offer eat in or take away. Overall we had a fantastic stay and would recommend staying at the cottage especially if you like originality and want to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Rhea

This cottage is in an excellent location close to the centre of Staithes. It is a very old building so it does come with its quirks as described. I know it wouldn't suit a large build or tall person. Communication with Jackie was excellent and quick response time. Also, even though it does have a parking spot right outside it is on a steep narrow road but you can park about 150m further down the road on level ground which suited us. It is located very close to the Cleveland Way path so ideal for walkers, overall we had a very pleasant break.

Derek

06 May 2022

A wonderful stay at Fisherman's cottages! Cottage is clean and well-decorated in keeping with the setting. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and didn't want to return home! Highly recommend getting the fire going for a cosy, relaxing evening. Cobbles over the bridge do home-made takeaway pizzas until 8:30pm which is ideal. Highly recommend.

Sophie

09 Apr 2022

Lovely tiny characterful fisherman's cottage within easy walking distance of sea, shops and pubs. Good parking at the harbour. Only park outside cottage if you have a tiny car. Wonderful walks directly from the cottage via the Cleveland way. Book well in advance if you want to eat at either of the pubs - good food at both.

Sue

21 Mar 2022

A fabulous little cottage with beautiful view. The sun shone most of the day in the front. Perfect for 2 people and a little dog. Parking right outside is a real bonus as most visitors to Staithes have to park at the top and walk down. Very well appointed with everything you need for a comfortable stay including Smart TV.
TIP if you are intending to eat at The Cod and Lobster book weeks in advance of your visit as we did to avoid disappointment.
Also as we went out of season Staithes was very quiet, as we like it, but you might need to bring some food supplies as the only food shop (apart from the butchers) open when we visited was the Co op a short drive away.
All in all , a fabulous location , friendly locals, great walks and a cosy spot to come back to.

This is an absolute gem of a place in a magnificent little village on the North Yorkshire Coast. Comfortable, clean, unique, perfect for a couple wanting a break or for someone wanting time to themselves. Staithes and the Fisherman’s cottage is one of Yorkshire’s best kept secrets. Jackie was a great host, leaving in depth information and was always quick to communicate when we needed to speak to her.

07 Feb 2022

We had a lovely stay at the cottage. Its was authentic, quaint and cosy. We enjoyed walking around the village the views and pubs. There are lots of lovely beaches close by, we visited Runswick Bay and Sandsend. We had some lovely walks and and most places are dog friendly. The 2 pubs in Staithes were both dog friendly. We would definatley go back.

24 Jan 2022

Staying here was everything we hoped for and more. Sitting on a quiet street at the side of Staithes with its traditional decor and timeless character, the fisherman’s cottage transports you away from everyday life and urges you to take on a slower, more relaxing pace for a few days. We absolutely adored staying here; chatting to people as they wandered past as we drank coffee on the bench outside, and spending cosy evenings with a glass of wine chatting by the fire were highlights for us, as was meeting some of the locals by the harbour and eating lots of glorious (Email hidden by Airbnb) munication from start to finish was amazing; friendly, attentive and responsive, the house was spotless and check in and out seamless. We even got to meet Jackie by chance, who was as lovely in person as she is over message. All in all, we had the most wonderful time and were so sad to have to leave. We miss this quiet corner of the world and the beautiful fisherman’s cottage and hope to get the chance to return soon.

Great location. Great cottage. Lovely village. Not much more to say!
If you’re looking to get away and to relax it’s the perfect retreat. Close to lovely pubs and cafes and on the Cleveland Way for walking, Staithes is the place to unwind and the cottage has everything you need to do this. Clean with all you need to enjoy your stay, it was just what was needed. Thanks!

Spencer

11 Dec 2021

Very cosy little cottage in an ideal location. The bench outside is perfect for breakfast in the morning sun, and passersby are happy to exchange a few words. We were there in September and the bench kept the sun until nearly 4pm which was very welcome. It is a delight to watch the ebb and flow of the tide. If you are a bit older, like us, you may find the bed a little small and the mattress quite firm. Being an old fisherman's cottage, everything is on the small side, but perfectly adequate for 2 people as long as you are not too tall! Jackie is an excellent host and the housekeepers are very helpful.

Peter

22 Sep 2021

This is a gem. If you want flash modernistic sleekness, don’t come here. Leave it for those of us who love the quirky idiosyncrasies of an old fisherman’s cottage with all its history and the most magnificent views you can imagine. Throw in a pub with a heart and great food - Cod and Lobster - and you’re in heaven. A blissful few days in a place with no pretensions, comfortable and cosy, with a real feel for people.

Ted

09 Sep 2021

This small beautiful, full of character cottage has not only a spectacular view but is also extremely well equipped. It's 1 minute from the town centre with 2 great pubs for eating and drinking, a spectacular Italian deli (a bit expensive) and some great local walks along the coast. We'll be booking up again for our next visit.

Mick

27 Aug 2021

Characterful & quirky little cottage in a lovely location including an all important parking permit needed while staying in the village.

Great to use as a ‘home base’ for days out walking and exploring the coastline.

The modern and clean kitchen is fantastically equipped to cater at home.

A little TLC in the rest of the house would perhaps not go amiss to up the comfort level for days/evenings in.

Smart TV and Smart Heating - with limitations & not so easy to navigate and use.

Ours was a Summer visit but imagine in the Winter months with the fire going it is quite a glowing & cosy snug.

Mandy & Keith are very friendly and excellent response time (literally minutes) to queries.

We look forward to a return in the Winter/Spring.

Sarah

17 Jul 2021

A lovely cosy cottage in a fantastic location across the footbridge from Staithes village. Everything is within walking distance, and the cottage makes a great place from which to head out in the village (worth booking the pubs in advance if you can during covid), and around North Yorkshire/Cleveland. Excelsior chippy is a must!

Great hosts too!

5 stars is not enough for the location , 10 stars would be better ! Even if you never got out of Staithes the view sitting outside the cottage would sustain you. The cottage is really snug and cosy and the dog loved the open fire in the cold evenings. Both the cottage and village still have that old world charm and relaxed feel that Robin Hoods Bay has sadly lost. I believe most of Jackie's customers are returning customers and I will be joining them, that's for sure.

The cottage was immaculate and welcoming. Communication with Jackie and the local housekeepers prior to our visit was very prompt, friendly and helpful. The location of the cottage and the view of the harbour is stunning. Very peaceful but with easy access to the village shops where we bought all our food and also fuel for the fire. We visited with our 7 month old daughter, due to the pandemic this was our first opportunity to get away as a family and was perfect for us. Plenty of nearby walks to take in the sea air and idyllic scenery. My only regret is that we didn't book to stay for a whole week.

Fantastic cottage in a gorgeous location. The owners were quick to respond to any questions and were really helpful. The cottage is great, really clean, comfortable and has everything you need. It's really close to the beach and has a lovely view of the harbour. We had a brilliant time in Staithes and we would highly recommend staying at the Fishermans!

Perched on the sunny side of a hill, this fisherman’s cottage provided the perfect cosy retreat for our Winter stay - open log fire, comfy bed, thoughtfully decorated and with a beautiful view of Staithes and the sea.

We missed the advice on the listing to not book if you are over 6ft. However, my boyfriend is 6ft 2 and had no issues or bangs on the head. In fact, he absolutely loved the place!

Looking forward to returning in another season...

We had a wonderful few days staying in no 5 Fisherman's Cottages. It is a perfect base to discover the beautiful seaside fishing village of Staithes and to explore further afield on the North Yorkshire moors.

It is a very cosy cottage but perfect for two people to share a romantic few days away - the views down over the harbour from the front room and bedroom window are beautiful. On a couple of rainy days, it was lovely to shut ourselves away, light the fire, snuggle up and read our books in the living room. The kitchen had everything we needed for a few days and we self-catered on a couple of evenings, picking up food from the coop at the top of the village (about 15 mins and a bit of a hill away). We enjoyed hearty meals in the Cod and Lobster and The Royal George (the steak and ale pie was amazing) on the other evenings. The smart heating system meant the house was always cosy and warm. The bathroom is small but very clean and functional. The bed was very comfy.

It was great to be able to park directly outside the cottage so that we could easily drive out of town on the days we decided to explore the moors. However, if you wanted to just stay in Staithes for a few days, we could easily have entertained ourselves in the shops, having tea and scones in lovely Dotty's and exploring the walking routes along the coast towards Whitby.

All communication we had with the owner was extremely prompt and helpful and all useful information was provided in advance of our arrival or was available in the house booklet on arrival. It was clear that Amanda was available in the village if we had any problems or queries at any time - luckily we didn't have any issues but she was extremely friendly and polite on the couple of times we emailed her.

I really do have to talk about the location first. In the picturesque fishing village of Staithes with windows, and bench on the small from patio, overlooking the village. Couldn’t be better. Parking permit included, which is a real bonus for this small village which restricts all parking. The cottage itself is a characterful small fisherman’s cottage. Cosy but comfortable for a couple. Tight kitchen, but this is simply a constraint for any original small cottage. Communication from the host was always quick. The local housekeepers (live in the village) were available for anything and very responsive. Thoroughly lovely three days.

Fishermans Cottage was simply lovely. It was like stepping back in time and being in the middle of one of Charles Dickens Stories. The cottage itself was so quaint, full of character and charm. I personally think it has the best position in the village with beautiful views of the harbour and out to sea. We had a resident seagull come to visit us daily who we called "Cheeky Boy" . The village itself is so charming everyone we met was so friendly we felt like we were among family. The walk to Runswick Bay was quite breath taking and well worth a visit. We also went to Whitby about 11 miles away and while we had a super day we were glad to get back to the peace and quiet of Staithes. The parking was fine everyone being so courteous and helpful. The coop is up the hill and a bit of a walk so my advice is to definitely take the basics with you. We really did have a wonderful time at the cottage and it was everything I imagined it would be and more. My daughter and I feel we have left a little piece of our hearts behind in the cottage so we will definitely have to return one day. Very sad to leave as this cottage worked its magic on both of us.
