Host & Stay | The Cottage, Marske
Summary: If you’re looking for a retreat by the sea, look no further than The Cottage. Nestled right on the coast in Marske, you’ll be just a few steps from the beach. Sleeping up to 4 guests, this beautiful property is perfect for family holidays and staycations with friends.
The Space: The Cottage, Marske is a charming holiday home which has been finished to the highest standard.
On the ground floor, you’ll find a cosy and welcoming living room. Boasting a brick fireplace with an electric log burner style fire as well as a flat screen TV, this room will certainly feel like home. There is ample space for your whole party to relax together as there is a comfy three seater sofa and two matching armchairs. Whether you’re keeping up with your favourite shows or playing games, you can retreat here after a day at the beach to spend quality times with your loved ones.
Also on this floor is the open plan kitchen and dining area. With high shine kitchen cabinets in cream and dark wood style worktops, the kitchen has a traditional feel with a contemporary look. Fully equipped for all self-catering staycations, it boasts an oven, hob, microwave, toaster, kettle, fridge and coffee maker. Sharing this space is the dining area so it’s ideal for socialising and entertaining. You will find the family bathroom also on the ground floor.
The patio doors open out into the quirky garden. With fishing baskets and boat ornaments, there is certainly a seaside theme which suits the cottage perfectly. Enjoy your meals al fresco style at the outdoor dining area which includes a wooden table and four chairs.
Back inside you’ll find two spacious bedrooms upstairs on the first floor.
The master bedroom features a black iron double bed and cream wood furniture. You’ll enjoy your sleep at The Cottage as the bed boasts plush bedding and premium linen. There is a calming feel to the space with a light colour scheme and splashes of navy blue. Make the most of the lie-ins during your stay and turn on the TV to watch breakfast shows from the comfort of your bed.
Head to the second bedroom and you’ll find an equally charming space. The crisp white walls are livened up with red cushions and a pink roller blind. There is a comfortable small double bed with the same premium bed linens.
The family bathroom is ultra sleek with sand coloured wall tiles and spotlights. Ideal for families, there is a bath with an overhead shower. A basin, WC and mirror complete the space.
Guest Access: Guests have access to the full cottage.
The keys to the property are accessed via a secure key safe and full details will be provided shortly before your arrival date.
There is no car parking outside the front of the property or on the Terrace. Parking is available on the slip road to the beach opposite the cottage.
The Neighborhood: Marske-by-the-Sea is a delightful village located on the North Yorkshire coast, less than 10 minutes from Saltburn and Redcar. The village square is packed with independent businesses, including dog-friendly cafes, pubs, micropubs and restaurants. Nearby is Marske Valley Gardens where you can explore walkways lined with beautiful flowers. Head to Marske Sands and you’ll find a long stretch of gently sloping sandy beach. The famous Cleveland Way snakes its way across the cliff tops and along the beach to Saltburn and beyond.
Neighbouring Saltburn-by-the-Sea is a great place to visit during your stay. Take the oldest functioning cliff lift in the UK down to the promenade and you’ll arrive at the 208-metre pier which stretches out into the sea. The long sandy shores are overlooked by colourful boutique beach huts and high cliffs tower in the distance.
You can also find popular villages and towns such as Staithes, Robin Hoods Bay and Whitby further along the coast.

Beautiful
Beautiful cottage with fantasia views. My mum would have been happier if there was a handrail on the stairs. And just be aware limited parking, the neighbours DONT like it if you park outside their house. There are spaces on the slipway so ok if you are able bodied. We loved it and want to stay again x
