Description

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

The accommodation was very comfortable.

The kitchen and dining was well appointed with everything we needed. The beds were comfortable although the bedrooms on the small side. The top floor lounge is exceptional, very comfortable and a lovely terrace as a little private suntrap. Our only comment was that on arrival the turning space at the top of the road was full so very difficult to off load. Better to off load at the bottom by the Cod and Lobster and walk cases up the road. Also the Bank car park is £10 a day. We found a residents permit by the front door and wasn't sure if that should have been used rather than paying for parking. Maybe the instructions could have been clear on this point. All in All Staithes is a special place and we will return.

What can we say.

The house is lovely and has everything you need. The living area is so cosy and so quite and great looking over to the sea is a great benefit. Can not wait to return again.

Hillsover is a beautiful place to stay.

It's comfortable, clean and very well set out. The roof terrace with a sea view is a perfect place to relax after climbing the hilly streets of Staithes. The bedrooms are quiet and comfy, the kitchen is cool and a great place to sit for breakfast with the stable style door open and letting in the sea air. We needed a relaxing break. We got exactly that. Loved it.
