This area is nicknamed the ‘Dinosaur Coast’ as it’s packed with history. Staithes is a magnet for art and artists alike. Throughout the village you’ll find amazing painted illusions known as the ‘Painted Illusions Trail’ created by the famous artist Paul Czainski. It is also the home to the impressionist art society, known as Staithes Group, and their work can always be seen dotted around.

Most enjoyable stay and Staithes itself is such a historic place and a great place for a base to venture to places like Whitby, Robin Hood Bay and for Heartbeat enthusiasts Goathland. Fantastic walks with Cleveland Way walk for those that enjoy walking. Highly recommended.

Amazing place and fabulous location. We stayed here once before a few years ago and it had not been cleaned when we arrived. I am so happy we gave it another chance because it was very clean and everything was perfect. The location is excellent and the house had everything we needed. The beds are comfortable and linens are all lovely. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We can’t wait to return next year!

Just returns from a 4 night stay at Sea Haven. Location was perfect, right in the harbour, we would definitely recommend eating at the Cod and Lobster, the seafood was delicious! The house was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. It would have been helpful to have the WiFi password in the information that was sent out, as we had to hunt around for it. A blind on the kitchen door window would be nice for a little extra privacy, as you are directly behind another house and can see straight into their kitchen, but this was a minor thing. Would definitely recommend staying here and I would definitely return .

Enjoyable short stay in a comfortable cottage right in the centre of the village. 30 seconds walk to two good pubs. Very quaint village with a pleasant harbour and beach. Cottage was easy to find and good communication from the host. Recommended.
