You can also book private parking at Glenvale situated at the top of Staithes Bank or the privately run section of Staithes Bank Top car park.

Parking is a very rare commodity in the old village! With the exception of Chapel Garth, which has its own driveway, there is parking for unloading only close to each cottage. We provide a parking permit to cover the cost of parking charges in the Staithes Bank Top car park which is 5-10 minute walk from the cottages.
Travel to Staithes via car is recommended but not essential. The village is on the X4 Arriva bus route service between Middlesbrough and Whitby and it is a 10 minute walk from the bus stop on Whitby Road to the old village. It is also 20 mins by taxi from either Saltburn or Whitby stations.
Staithes is an old village with limited parking, cobbled streets and narrow alleyways. The car park is located in the new part of the village and you will need to walk up Staithes Bank to get there. All our cottages are set over a number of floors and the staircases are often narrow and steep, which is a characteristic of the majority of properties in the old village. Please refer to the cottage pages of the website for more detailed information.
All of our cottages have free Wi-Fi access.
Bedding and kitchen linen/oven gloves are provided as part of your rental cost.
No – you will need to bring your own towels.
For reasons of food hygiene we do not leave any food in the cottages. You will need to bring any items with you may need to use during your stay.
There is a small but well stocked Co-op supermarket on Whitby Road. There are also a number of small independent shops selling a range of fresh meat/poultry, wine/beer and food items.
The independent shops and the Co-op all stock logs, kindling and firelighters.
There are three pubs (all serving food inc take out), a good artisan takeaway pizza service and a number of cafes. The pubs can get very busy during peak so it is advisable to book in advance. Whitby and Saltburn are 20 minutes travel and the whole area has many great local places to eat and drink. Trip Advisor and Facebook are a good source of information to help you plan ahead.
