Beautiful location, book last minute and Jackie was really responsive on any questions.
Everyone was really friendly when your walking around- the local bars and pubs have amazing food .
Open fire in the cottage makes it after a loverly day to settle in the evening and watch the sea views from the window.
Will book again!

Loved our stay in Old Jack’s Cottage. It was cosy, quirky, and full of character. Our dog loved lying in front of the open fire in the evenings. Great base to explore Staithes and the surrounding countryside. Beautiful to watch the sunrise in the morning and the ever changing tides. Thank you to Jackie who was very responsive for any queries we had.

Got to say there are only a few places I have been that have made me sad when I leave and this is one of them. The place and everything to do with it is stunning I love it. Jackie is amazing everything was spot on we already booking again and hopefully again after that. If you have never been you will get it once you have been it’s beautiful and thank you Jackie for great memories for me my wife Emma and our puppy Leia
Cannot wait to get back and hopefully see you soon John & Emma &Leia 🐾🐾

A scenic and most delightful place to stay in.

I must congratulate Jackie for keeping the cottage so quaint and unspoilt. My Grandma used to live there and it still had the cosy feeling that was always there. Jackie was knowledgeable and we had family and friends in common and she also checked that I was warm and comfortable. I believe I have made a friend in Jackie and am sure we will have lot's more conversations when I come back to stay in the summer. Thank you Jackie, I had a wonderful peaceful time.

We had a wonderful time in Old Jacks Cottage in a cold November stay!
Taking advantage of the open fire at night was definitely a good choice and made the stay more atmospheric to the surroundings in this old coastal town.
Staithes is small and beautiful, lovely to walk around with very steep hill climbs or a bracing walk on the Cowbar where you can look out to the North Sea and see Dogger Bank. Or on the beach on the other side of the inlet and sit and watch the moon over the water from the benches then head into the Cod & Lobster for a warming bevvy or hearty Cod and Chips!
Betsy and Bo’s sell lovely food and treats to take back to devour by the fire in the evening before or after a walk listening to the water in the beck or the roar of the sea.
Old Jacks is delightfully higgledy piggledy in nature, lots of things are on a slope and sometimes different ones so you almost can feel like being in a boat bobbing in the beck at times.
We hope to return to lovely Staithes one day.

Excellent stay, thank you so much!

Cosy, tastefully decorated little cottage with a stunning view. Check in was really easy, although parking on the steep hill was a bit exciting, the instructions were clear. The cottage was well appointed with everything we needed for a cosy autumn weekend, walking the costal paths and exploring the delightful village of Staithes. Plus the mattress on the bed was one of the comfiest I have ever slept on!

My partner and I adored our stay at Old Jack's. We were keen to visit the sea and loved the retained authenticity of the fisherman's cottage. We ended up caught in the middle of a storm, but had amazing atmospheric views of the sea just around the corner, and cafes, pubs and the independent convenience store just minutes away. The cottage remained cozy and warm despite the weather, and it was especially lovely to come home and relax by the fire. My partner commented that it was the cleanest and tidiest place she'd ever stayed! We will definitely return to this perfect little getaway spot.

Old Jack’s is the perfect place to rest, retreat and remind yourself of the simple, good things in life. This was a last minute booking for me and my border collie Monty and we both loved our time here….morning walks on the beach were a treat, as was coffee on the bench with the ever changing postcard views and the open fire in the evening. The parking spot felt like a real luxury and we slept like logs. Jackie is a great host, everything was straightforward and we loved the old time charm of both the cottage and Staithes. Highly recommend.

Great little place, superb location

Beautiful location, really enjoyed our stay in Staithes. Traditional, small but comfortable cottage, very quiet with an amazing view.

Very cosy cottage great views we loved sitting on the bench at the front of the cottage with a glass of wine taking in the sea views and Jackie was a great host answering all our questions promptly

We had a wonderful stay and we are definitely booking again. Authentic, cosy, and comfortable in a unique, beautiful setting.

Very cute cottage, full of character! My husband and I enjoyed waking up to gorgeous views and sounds. The place was clean and instructions were helpful. Food nearby is amazing, so that was a plus.
Parking is not as convenient as we thought since the cottages are on a slope and could definitely be a little challenging if there are multiple luggage pieces.

Wonderfully cosy little house in a gorgeous setting!

Our first air BnB, really impressed, great location, steep hill gives great view. Cute, quaint cottage, quirky street appears on many of the village postcards. Clean & comfy sofa and bed, everything we needed and good shower, perfect bolt hole for 1 or 2. Open fire lit every night - didn’t want to leave.

Gorgeous location, literally seconds from the centre of Staithes. Thanks again for a lovely week. Highly recommend!

A fantastic place to stay in the heart of Staithes !

Fisherman's Cottage is a tiny charming cottage on a sharply inclined street with outstanding views of an inlet and the harbor. The spotlessly clean cottage is extremely comfortable (although the upstairs double bed was a little soft for these two Americans), the kitchen fully equipped, the linens fresh, and there is plenty of hot water. It was very quiet. For us, one prime feature was its easy access to the Cleveland Way, an outstanding hiking trail that follows the breathtaking coast. The town itself is spectacular, and the cottage's location provided ideal access. Finally, the owners were extremely generous and responsive.

A perfect stay for a short break in beautiful surroundings.

Fisherman's Cottage no.4 was in a fabulous location in the pretty fishing village of Staithes. The cottage was exactly what we expected for a one double bed fisherman's cottage, very quaint but had all the amenities & was very clean, great views of the river to the sea, from the windows.
Staithes has some very good eating places & also a regular bus service to Whitby
Thank you Jackie, we had a lovely relaxing week away, with numerous, quite hilly walks.
Excellent & highly recommend

A stunning location which was perfect for our mini break following a hectic Bank Holiday weekend. The cottage has everything you need and we loved how cleverly everything was stored.

Wonderful and cosy cottage, with a great vista. Enjoyed our stay.

Great cottage in fantastic location

Quirky cottage in beautiful surroundings. Lots of great walking routes nearby. Jackie was friendly and responsive and the place was exactly as described, very clean and cosy.

Arrived home after a fantastic break at Staithes.
Parking permit was invaluable, but most of all, it just felt like stepping back in time.
Loved it and we will definitely be back.

I stayed at Fisherman’s and was not disappointed. Really lovely location and wonderful view from the bedroom window.

Everything was at hand and I really enjoyed my stay at this cosy cottage.

Brilliant cottage just the right location with easy access to town, yet private with beautiful views. This cottage is one to return to, many thanks pat

Thank-you great location.

Superb location, fabulous views, authentic cosy cottage feel with a much appreciated coal fire. Superb communication before during and after the stay, Jackie is an exceptional host, bed is the comfiest I’ve slept in in an air bnb . Please go to Dottys tearoom never have we had such a warm welcome, proper tea pot, tea cups, saucers, superb bacon sarnies and cakes! Free treats for the furry family too when you arrive. Staithes is beautiful the view from the seat outside the cottage is so beautiful we enjoyed our Morning coffee abd evening gin their truly atmospheric

Old Jack's Cottage is just as described. Quaint and Quirky, small but perfectly formed.

Great location on the hill going down to the harbour and the parking permit is a bonus.

Loved our stay, great communication from Jackie, couldn't have been better.

Loved the cottage, perfect for two.

Well what a fabulous couple of nights we had at the magical Old Jacks cottage. A stunning location and a quirky atmospheric little bolt hole in the wonderful Staithes! Just right! A very comfortable sleep in the lovely bed and views to die for! Thank you for sharing with us - very highly recommended!

Perfect location. Wonderful cottage. Very helpful host. Enjoyed every minute.

the cottage and location was fantastic. we had everything we needed in the quant cottage. the location and views were lovely. we got to meet Jackie the host she was very nice she made sure we had everything we needed. would highly recommend any off her cottages I cant wait to go back again. thanks for a wonderful stay

Lovely quaint cottage, North Yorkshire at its best. Just what we were looking for. Hope to be back next year if not before.

we loved Old Jack's Cottage... picture perfect views and cosy little place just right for two. Sun on the Cottage in the morning, so a great spot for your morning cuppa. everywhere in Staithes is a stone's throw, including the Cod and Lobster pub, if you can grab a seat outside the views are fab. we parked down the bottom (near RNLI Station) rather than outside the cottage as our car doesn't like being parked on a slope!

Beautiful, cozy cottage in such a gorgeous, quaint , higgledy piggledy village. Great walks with a amazing views. Never realised this part of the world was so lovely.

Quaint cottage in a lovely location, the view was stunning.

We loved our four days in this beautiful little town on the coast! Jackie's place is just over the footbridge from the heart of Staithes, steps from the sea, and in a great location for happy days exploring the moors. The home is well equipped and comfortable. Would definitely recommend!

Old Jack’s Cottage was the perfect little cottage. I was delighted at how well stocked the tiny kitchen was - we prepared meals in as well as ate out.

My daughters were beside themselves with excitement at staying there and it was the perfect location for exploring lovely Staithes. We went out for pre-breakfast walks, everyone was so friendly and it was just a lovely couple of days.

And we well and truly put the automatic handbrake to the test - glad for the option to park down on the Staithe!

Full of character, quirky, lived in. Small one bedroom old fisherman's cottage, in a fantastic position, beautiful views from the bench outside, which is a perfect place to have a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine..Great hot shower and comfy bed.. Tiny kitchen area, but quite ok for making breakfast/drinks/snacks..We ate out anyway, so it was absolutely fine for us. The place was also very clean, and with the added bonus of a parking permit, it really is in an ideal spot..We absolutely loved our time there, and really hope we can stay again as soon as the opportunity presents itself..Thank you, Jackie.

What a location! I spent a happy sunny weekend walking the Cleveland Way, eating in the Cod and Lobster and just sitting on the bench outside this lovely cottage with a coffee and a book enjoying the most beautiful sea view.

What a gorgeous place! We so loved sitting on the bench outside with our cups of tea, gazing at the sea view and people watching.

What a gorgeous house and the view from the window each morning was just so lovely. I had a wee solo-holiday here to do some writing, reading, and re-setting and it was perfect for just that. I made good use of the Cod & Lobster restaurant which is about a 4 minute walk and also Cobbles for takeaway coffees, and I enjoyed wandering around all the winding streets and walking up to sit on the benches at the top of the hill that look out over the water and down on the village. Just lovely. Parking is quite tricky on the hill, be warned, so I’m very glad the permit allowed for parking at the pier as well - my clutch control isn’t what it could be, haha.

Very enjoyable stay in great location. Lovely hosts.

The perfect place for a getaway in Staithes! The location is incredible, the cottage was beautifully authentic and Jackie was a really accommodating host. Highly recommended!

If your after a relaxing break in a beautiful location, this is the place to go

Worth a visit for those who like walking,
pubs are good for food . Breakfast, lunch and evening meals.
Get in car and drive along the coastline and visit the little bays.

very quirky cosy cottage
absolutely wonderful view
real fire available
great for couples wanting to get away from it all

A cosy coastal get away and retreat with lovely sea views and sea sounds…plenty to see and do and just so calming to sit on the sunny bench out front, dog alongside, and watch the boats and tide come and go.

TRULY SPECIAL!! Well what can I say….this place is a hidden gem! To be honest, we had only seen the pictures of the sister cottage No. 5, and we were staying in No.4, which is smaller, but no way does it lack in charm or anything else (don’t expect a big kitchen…but we didn’t want to cook anyway..far too many places to eat and enjoy in the area) We have come home from 5 nights, and it has been a delight from start to finish. The cottage is quirky, authentic, and oozes history…and we wouldn’t want it to ever (Website hidden by Airbnb) partner said it’s his favourite staycation accommodation ever! It is in the BEST location, the pictures don’t even so it justice! I never wanted to leave the bench outside, morning tea with a view to die for! Everyone, including the delightful couple who have lived 2 doors down for 40+ years are super friendly and welcoming, and we used all the local shops, including the wonderful Chapel Yard Stores, Art Centre, and even a local house selling firewood! A stroll to both the George and Cod and Lobster pubs are a must! Mandy who is the housekeeper for the owner was so helpful, and communication brilliant! Great spot to explore Sandsend, Whitby, Runswick Bay and more….if you can tear yourself away from Staithes itself! We want to come back as soon as we can….and there will be only one place we will be booking!!! Just wonderful:) Thank you Jackie…for sharing this with us!

Francesca, John and Gilbert the dog:)))

Jack's Cottage is everything cottage should be ! You will love it ! Staithes is gorgeous as are the people. The food and atmosphere is fab in the Cod & Lobster ! Great Lobsterand Oysters !

Just returned from a lovely weekend here, exploring Staithes and walking nearby. The cosy cottage is in the perfect location with gorgeous views (very Insta worthy), friendly neighbours, comfy bed and with everything on your doorstep, including great pub grub. We would highly recommend and look forward to hopefully returning.
Thank you for having us 🙂

Highly recommended very authentic cozy fisherman’s cottage with a fantastic view

We really enjoyed our stay in Old Jack's cottage.
It's a lovely cosy, calm place, and the location is top drawer. We parked the car up on arrival, and just walked everywhere we wanted to go.
I really hope we can do this again.

A perfect location, a beautiful, picture postcard view from this quirky, little fisherman’s cottage. We loved it.

Wonderful cottage with a great view of Staithes and you have everything you need

The cottage is comfortable and homely. The view is something else. We have a big car so parked down on the staithe without a problem. The hill is very steep, narrow and bendy! Try to arrive in day light! My mornings aren’t going to be the same without sitting looking out at the view while drinking my tea.

A very quaint cottage that has everything you could need and is in a fabulous location with an amazing view. Everything about our stay was wonderful and we had great communication from the host.

I'd had my eye on Old Jack's Cottage for quite some time...and when I spotted a last minute cancellation ...I booked it for a two night break immediately
If you enjoy staying somewhere totally (Website hidden by Airbnb) open fire of an evening... stunning views...coastal paths..great seafood and friendly locals you can't go wrong staying here!
It was just like stepping back in time... forget the car..take lots of amazing photos and make friends and family back home jealous.
Jackie the owner was staying
nearby...her enthusiasm to make our weekend break as enjoyable as possible was gratefully received. xx

Jackie's cottage was an absolute delight; check-in was very straightforward and we found everything we needed. The kitchen is fairly small but very well equipped, and with an extra butchers block table to prepare food on we had no trouble making meals in the cottage.

The location overlooking the little river into the harbour is perfect, especially as you can park your car right outside (unlike most of the properties across the bridge) and Staithes itself is such a friendly and beautiful village.

Can't wait to revisit Staithes in the future and wouldn't hesitate to stay in Jackie's cottage again!

Lovely little cottage in a fantastic location. We enjoyed rock pooling down so the beach, cheese boards in front of the fire and beautiful walks with too many steep hills!

Gorgeous stay, would highly recommend Old Jacks cottage and would love to come back at some point 🌊🌊

A lovely little cottage, small but well kitted out with everything needed for a short stay. We did not attempt to cook in the tiny kitchen, but it was fine for breakfast and lunch with pub food in the village. The location is idyllic but you need to drive down a very steep and narrow road to get to it.

Had a great stay in Staithes. Location was brilliant

Just spent four nights with my wife and my fluffy Cavalier King Charles Bennie in this cozy old style cottage. We were really delighted. It's a small house so it is perfect for couples only. Easy check in, cleanliness excellent! Perfect location to enjoy the villa view with the dancing sea tide levels. Walking distance to the the main street and to the harbor. I recommend climbing the Cleveland way to the top for the magnificent view of the harbor and of the coast.

A quaint cottage with wonderful views. Wonderful for a relaxing short break. A gorgeous village with all amenities, lovely food at the Cod and Lobster. Highly recommended.

Happiness is sitting on the little bench outside Old Jack’s cottage with a glass of wine and views to die for. It’s the perfect little home in the perfect location… and it’s got a parking spot! We can’t wait to go back.

Our stay in Staithes exceeded our expectations! We had wonderful weather and sitting on the bench at the front of the cottage enjoying the harbour view was so relaxing and restoring.
The little cottage was perfect for our 4 night break and we wished we were staying longer. The parking space meant we could leave our bikes in the car.
The village has lovely pubs, cafes a butcher and a deli while still being small and not too busy (out of the school holidays anyway)
We had a lovely walk on the cliff path to Runswick Bay for a swim and there’s fabulous cycling on the Moors nearby

Lovely short stay in Staithes. Gorgeous cottage in great location. Clean, easy to find and good communication with Jackie. Hope to be back soon.

A cosy little cottage which was immaculately clean and had all we needed for a comfortable stay, with a view from the bedroom window and just a short stroll across the bridge to the shops and cafes. It was a mini break to remember and we hope to make it an annual tradition.

Location unbeatable, cottage historic and comfortable, we loved it.

Cosy and quirky stay. Staithes is lovely!

A fabulous cottage & location, friendly people
We will return again when the restrictions are over

The cottage is perfectly located in a wonderful village. Loved the fire and watching the view from the window. Also had some fabulous walks and enjoyed take-aways from local businesses. Would definitely visit again.

Cosy cottage - very snug and clean - with stunning views in a lovely village setting. We loved the open fire and the walks along the beaches as well as great food at local pubs and cafes. All communications very quick and helpful.

Amazing location and views

Very thoughtful hosts lit a fire for us for our late arrival, and were very accommodating with our late check out. Also had great local recommendations. Cottage was beautiful and cosy

We had a lovely lovely stay in a beautiful cottage . With some of the best views in Staithes. The wonderful bonus was that it was also private and while right in the harbour. Plus car parking right by house . Not common In Staithes.

We have just returned from a wonderful weekend away staying at Old Jacks Cottage in Staithes. The cottage is in an ideal location with the most beautiful view to wake up to in the morning, and only a few minutes walk from the beach and pubs. Staithes is a magical place and a brilliant spot for exploring the area, although you could be just as happy relaxing in the village for a few stays. We had a really lovely time and would not hesitate to return in the future.

A very traditional fisherman’s cottage. A great location, perfect for a quick getaway. We loved it.

Fantastic cottage in a great location overlooking the river with views of the sea . The sun shone in during the morning and there was a perfectly positioned bench to sit and admire the view outside the front door . Lovely and warm and well equipped .

Staithes was charming with a couple of cafes and two pubs that do food. Bring some milk as we couldn’t find anywhere to buy milk down in the village. Also note no tea and coffee provided at the cottage. You can catch a bus from the top road towards Whitby and walk the coastal path 7 miles from Sandsend back to Staithes .
Communication went fine with hosts . Highly recommend .

A gorgeous & intimate cottage in the absolute prime location. Wonderful guest/host exchanges & look forward to staying again next time I’m lucky enough to come back to the lovely North Yorkshire coast

Perfect place for a peaceful time

I’ve never been to Staithes and was so looking forward to visiting. We were so blessed with great weather and the location of Jack Cottage was perfect. Being able to park outside was an added bonus. We walked our socks off and our little dog could not have been happier. Two glorious meals in the COD & LOBSTER was better than any posh restaurant. We will be back.

A wonderful week in a lovely cosy cottage. Great to have an open fire. We would love to return.

We had a great stay in the cottage. Cosy, traditional and a home from home. We will be back - Staithes is a gem.

Old Jacks Cottage is beautiful, like stepping back in time, yes it is small, but it is very well equipped, everything you need to cook the lovely fresh fish that you can buy locally, the local pub, just a 2 minute walk over the bridge is very good, serving amazing food.

we had a great stay in Staithes, the cottage is beautiful and ideally situated. Jackie was great accommodating us at short notice.

Excellent time had by all. Thanks

Great cosy cottage in a lovely fishing village. Me and my partner had a lovely time.

A lovely stay in a comfortable cosy cottage. The bed was dreamily comfortable and all other facilities were good too. The location was peaceful on that side of town, yet a minutes walk into the centre. Parking was great to have outside but due to the gradient, not advised if your clutch or brakes are on the way out! But we were grateful for it. All in all a lovely stay!

Adorable little cottage with quirky touches and fabulous views. We didn’t realise that it had been on the telly but little children walking past exclaimed ‘there’s Old Jack’s Cottage!’ so we looked it up on the web. Comfy bed, I slept like a log, great location and a visiting cat, what more could you ask for?

This cottage is facing south-east so has the sun for most of the day, and has a beautiful view across to the town. The outside seating allows a beautiful view especially over the harbour which is great for crab fishing. The local cat is very friendly. It is a real advantage to have access to parking outside the house. Mandy who greeted us was very friendly with lots of local information.

We had a lovely time
Great views and comfy bed
Thanks

The cottage had a stunning harbour view so couldn’t have wished for a better location. The cottage was so atmospheric and private but you also were able to say hello to neighbours who were very friendly. We were able to check in early and any questions were answered very quickly by the hosts. What a lovely few days and would recommend a stay here- we will definitely be back!

This cottage is in a perfect position facing south-east so has the sun for most of the day, and has a beautiful view towards the sea and across to the town. It is a real advantage to have access to parking outside the house. There are lots of informative books - and a particularly comfortable bed!

Great view, great place! Had a fantastic time! Would highly recommend!

Lovely little period cottage, ideal base for exploring the surrounding area.

A lovely little cottage in the heart of the village. We had a great short stay here.
You will get the extra benefit from being able to park outside this house!

Lovely cosy cottage in fantastic location. It had everything we wanted and felt like home from home. Staithes is beautiful...and wonderful walks right on your door step. We loved it and will be back!

A lovely cosy place to stay in a beautiful part of the world !

A small but quaint cottage a stones throw from the sea, pubs and cobbled streets of staithes. Dont expect a luxury hotel type stay if your looking for that go elsewhwere but if you want to step back in time a little, this is the place for you.

Lovely little place. Perfect for a little getaway

Old Jack's Cottage is a gorgeous cosy place to stay in a unique and beautiful location, we had a lovely stay to celebrate our first wedding anniversary and as a break before our first baby is born. It is so comfortable and the surrounding village and places to visit in North Yorkshire are fantastic. Such great value for money, I would recommend this to anyone.

A beautiful little cottage with a fantastic view over the harbour. All you could need and good amenities in the village. I went for a great run along the coast and watched the sun rise over the sea. Recommend it for a relaxing break.

Wow what a great place. We loved it. Every kitchen pot, pan and utensil you could possible need.
Such a cute cottage with lots of character.
We will definitely return.

Sweet cottage with a lovely view.... would recommend to a couple looking for something cosy and quiet

An absolute gem of a place. Gorgeous views in a stunning village. I couldn't of asked for more. Once more Thank you

Fantastic location, lovely cosy cottage even when there's a storm blowing outside. Very quick response when we had any questions. Would definitely return

A beautiful, cute and quirky bijoux place to stay. Set in such a tranquil and friendly location. Very authentic and a great escape from the usual rush of life. Love it!

Fantastic location. Very friendly, helpful and welcoming hosts. Must book!

Stunning location, parking slightly tricky as road is narrow but a beautiful little cottage full of character. We loved sitting outside in the small garden/patio just watching the world go by.

Great little cottage with fantastic views. Great base for exploring the area of relaxing in Staithes. Ideal for doggie holidays.

Previous recommendations are entirely justified. The charming cottage overlooks the harbour and comes with a much sought after parking space. We appreciated the easy access and cleanliness of the accommodation. Just wished I owned it!. Jackie - we will be returning on a regular basis.

This is a cosy space, ideal for two people. The kitchen is very small but cooking is still possible. Location is great, with a view over the beck and parking outside (again, a small space but workable).

The cottage is perfect for a relaxing stay - it has everything you need - the car park space is an added bonus.
The view is stunning!

Loved our stay at this authentic little cottage. The location could not be better - would recommend.

Old Jacks Cottage is in a beautiful location with amazing views. The cottage has great facilities and everything that is needed for a break away. I would highly recommend staying here.

Lovely place, everything you need and in a perfect location.
