Tucked between the picturesque fishing village of Staithes and the golden sands of Skinningrove, Marsay Cottage is a beautifully renovated former miner’s cottage dating back over a century. Full of warmth and character, this dog-friendly retreat offers a peaceful base for exploring both the dramatic Yorkshire coast and the vast landscapes of the North York Moors National Park.
Inside, the cottage has been thoughtfully updated to combine cosy comfort with modern convenience. Enter through the front porch, ideal for storing muddy boots after a day on the Cleveland Way, and step into the inviting lounge, where a wood-burning stove adds a toasty glow on cooler evenings. The adjoining kitchen is well-equipped for cooking hearty meals, with both a breakfast bar and a dining table for gathering around. A handy ground-floor shower room and utility cupboard with a washing machine add to the practical touches.
Upstairs, you’ll find two comfortable bedrooms, a master double with far-reaching views across open countryside and even out to sea over the cliffs, and a second bedroom with a single bed plus a trundle, ideal for children or extra guests. There is also a family bathroom offering both a bath and a shower over, perfect for relaxing after a day outdoors.
To the rear of the cottage is a small, enclosed patio, a safe space for dogs to stretch their legs or to enjoy your morning coffee in the fresh sea air.
The location is perfect for adventurers and beach-lovers alike. Just a short stroll from the Cleveland Way, you can enjoy stunning cliff-top walks with panoramic views, connecting you to Saltburn, Staithes, Runswick Bay, Whitby, and beyond. Skinningrove Beach is just a mile away, a hidden gem of soft golden sands, and Staithes, with its winding lanes and colourful cottages, is just 4 miles along the coast.
Nearby Loftus offers convenient amenities including bars, cafes, takeaways, and a supermarket. Whether you’re hiking, beachcombing, or simply soaking up the sea breeze, Marsay Cottage is your charming home-from-home by the coast.
