The property

Hillsover is an attractive and characterful terraced cottage set within the scenic harbourside village of Staithes, North Yorkshire, making it a great choice for couples, friends or small families looking to explore the coastline.

Arranged over three floors, the property opens with a well-presented kitchen/diner and a convenient cloakroom, offering everything needed to prepare and enjoy meals together while planning the days ahead.

Like all traditional cottages in Staithes, the staircases are steep, so a certain level of mobility will be required.

On the first floor, you will find two double bedrooms, both offering bright and inviting spaces to rest, served by a bathroom finished with colourful tiling.

The sitting room occupies the second floor and provides a welcoming place to unwind, with a bright atmosphere, stylish seating, and a woodburning stove adding warmth and character.

During the warmer months, open the bi-fold doors to access the terrace, where sea and harbour views create a lovely backdrop for relaxing as the sun sets.

Staithes is a charming coastal village, home to traditional cottages, independent shops, and eateries gathered around the harbour and Staithes Beck.

Enjoy dining out locally, explore the village’s unique streets, or wander along the harbour and beach, part of the fossil-rich coastline.

The village also offers a museum and scenic viewpoints, while the North York Moors National Park is close by, with its network of walking routes and wildlife.

Further afield, discover Whitby with its abbey and beach, or Scarborough with its castle, coastline, and range of attractions.

Hillsover is perfectly placed for discovering North Yorkshire’s coast and countryside, with the added benefit of direct access to the Cleveland Way

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

About the location

STAITHES

Whitby 10 miles.

The charming and sleepy seaside village of Staithes, with its cobbled streets and back alleys, is something of an artist’s dream. Its pretty houses and cottages are clustered around the old harbour and surrounded by high craggy cliffs on three sides, with a sheltered sandy beach set amongst the rocky coastline. The village can claim connections with Captain Cook who was apprenticed to a draper near the harbour. Nowadays, Staithes is a must for anyone visiting the Yorkshire Coast and has a good selection of pubs, shops and tea rooms. Staithes is still home to an RNLI lifeboat station and a small fleet of cobles (fishing boats) landing fish, crab and lobster, with boat trips for birdwatching, fishing and even whale watching available. It’s also the location of the popular BBC children’s TV series, Old Jack’s Boat. Staithes has a strong attraction for artists, with an annual Art and Heritage Festival, galleries and artists studios with art courses and workshops regularly on offer. There’s a free Illusion Trail, which guides visitors around the network of ginnels (alleyways), with trail guides available locally. The best views of the town can be enjoyed from the Cleveland Way which runs down the cliff to the sea’s edge. Altogether a superb base for exploring the Yorkshire Coast, visiting the larger resorts of Whitby or Scarborough and enjoying the moorland villages of the North York Moors National Park.
