About this property
Post Box Cottage offers family-friendly accommodation with three bedrooms, one double and two single rooms. Downstairs, the cosy open plan living area is traditionally furnished, with comfortable leather sofas, a well-equipped kitchen and a dining table to one end. It has the added benefit of a downstairs cloakroom, always useful for families. Outside, there is off road parking for two cars and a private front patio, enabling guests to sit and enjoy a morning coffee in the sunshine, before heading off for the day. With Staithes just a 10 minute walk away, and the surrounding countryside at your fingertips, this delightful cottage provides a lovely, quiet place to stay. Note: This property adjoins Ref. 919000, together they sleep 10.
The charming and sleepy seaside village of Staithes, with its cobbled streets and back alleys, is something of an artists 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.

The cottage was spotless, warm and cosy with everything needed for a very enjoyable stay, nice big bedroom with comfy bed. With coastal walks from the doorstep and fishing villages to explore the cottage is an absolute gem. Recommend the Fox & Hounds just 2mins away and The Fishermans Wife in Whitby. Thanks to Elaine, Gerard & Family for the welcome pack and for the opportunity to fully enjoy Post Box Cottage. Hopefully we will return. Best wishes Erna & David ,

The cottage was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The owners had provided everything you need for a self catering stay, plenty of pots and pans, crockery, utensils etc and more. The cottage was very cosy, comfortable beds,good shower and central heating. The cottage is situated in a good location, in the small village of Dalehouse, and you can easily walk into Staithes from the cottage. We didn't get to meet the owners tho they did say if we needed anything just to knock at their door which is next but one to the cottage, but as everything in the cottage was provided we didn't have any issues . I would highly recommend staying here and hope to be back in the future.

Elaine and Gerard were so friendly and welcoming on our arrival. The cottage was warm and comfortable, equiped with everthing you could need. This cottage is in a lovely setting close to a local pub, with a welcoming roaring fire, serving tasty meals. A most enjoyable stay in a great place.
