Short breaks in Staithes

Self-catering holiday cottages in Staithes for short breaks

If you’re keen to get away yet short on time, browse our selection of short breaks in Staithes for the perfect holiday escape on the Yorkshire Coast. Home to one of the prettiest harbours in North Yorkshire, this ancient fishing village appears lost in time with its winding cobbled streets lined by higgledy-piggledy fishermen’s cottages with their contrasting red and grey roofs. During a stay in one of our cosy Staithes cottages for short breaks, you can look forward to ice creams on the harbour while watching the pastel-painted fishing boats gently sway in the breeze, fossil hunting on the beach, and scenic coastal walks along the Cleveland Way National Trail which meanders through the village.

Dip in and out of art galleries and independent shops, relax with a drink at one of the traditional pubs overlooking the bay, or stop for an afternoon tea at a friendly little tearoom. Once the home of famous sailor James Cook, the Captain Cook and Staithes Heritage Centre is a must-visit where you can uncover fascinating secrets that lie with the village’s history. With so much to see and do, our short break holiday cottages in Staithes are perfectly placed to allow you to experience as much as possible during your stay. Whether you’re searching for a cosy fisherman’s cottage with a toasty wood burner or a larger coastal property with views out to sea, our collection of self-catering accommodation in Staithes is sure to make the most of your Yorkshire holiday.
