About this property

This cosy lower ground floor apartment was formed from the net store of what was once a fisherman’s cottage, quietly tucked away within the charming village of Staithes. Set over the lower ground floor level, this holiday home is situated below a two-storey cottage and is an ideal retreat for couples wanting to get away from it all. The open plan living area with exposed stone walls, beamed ceilings and a warming woodburning stove creates the perfect space to snuggle around on cooler evenings! With a pretty double bedroom and spacious shower room, Grimes Nook provides traditional, comfortable accommodation. Outside is a small front patio with bench where you can sit with a morning cup of coffee, whilst soaking up the atmosphere in this quaint, historic village. A two minute walk brings you to local inns, tea rooms and village shops, whilst the harbour and beach are just a stone's throw away. Wander around the narrow, cobbled streets and alleyways, or enjoy an invigorating walk along the cliffs to nearby Runswick Bay. A little further up the coast you will find the old spa town of Saltburn, with its elegant architecture and lovely sandy beach, whilst the vibrant port of Whitby offers excellent restaurants, independent shops and ancient abbey. With both the stunning North York Moors and the coast to discover, Grimes Nook can be enjoyed at any time of the year. Note: This property is situated below Ref. 933838, together they sleep 6 people.

The seaside village of Staithes offers cobbled streets and back alleys, pretty houses, harbour, sandy beach, pubs, shops and tea rooms. The Cleveland Way is well worth exploring, whilst the larger resports of Whitby and Scarborough are nearby.

    There is a few things that would be ideal for future visitors - Somewhere to keep bathroom toilettes - lamp bulbs / one was out , no WiFi to contact you but we were ok with one lamp , just so you are aware it needs replacing . - broken glasses in cupboards on arrival - more trays / roasting tin for oven maybe - bigger toaster - had to squash bread to fit in very small toaster . - better pillows and the bedding was very bitty and tired . On arrival the cottage looked nice and was warm, so thankyou for pre warming on such a cold day . To my horror both sofas have a lot of mould behind the big cushions, this I know to be a health hazard and I’m very upset about it .. I suffer from asthma so this worried me a great deal . Peace and tranquility!! None of this I’m afraid .. The noise from the tenants above in grimes cottage was horrendous.. on our last night they decided after making so much racket for 3 days and nights to switch the washing machine on which probably ended around 1am . As for there being no Wi-Fi ,and leaving our I pads etc at home to read a good book whilst away , we did not get that holiday , relaxing feel you described in the description details and have returned home tired and a little stressed having very little sleep . My husbands 60th birthday treat was a flop

    Best bits are it is cosy with lovely log burner which is a one match starter. The heating and shower are good. The layout and furnishings are fine. We had a greyhound and lurcher with is and they were happy. The cottage us very quiet aoart from if the upstairs neighbours are doing Irish Dancing (joke) just a little noisy when they were moving around. As long as the guests are aware there is a sharp climb to the accommodation and nowhere to park and unload - we used the 40min parking and the space near the Cod and Lobster. It is a long way to get supplies if local shop is closed - we were out of season so had to go to Coop, on the bright side The Royal George does amazing food with proper chips. Lovey stay.

    We knew there was no WiFi but there was no mobile signal either. Installing broadband and WiFi would have made this a better stay.
