The Old Joiners Shop is an alluring cottage located in the seaside village of Staithes in North Yorkshire, perfect for a romantic retreat for couples. Converted from an old joiners shop, this small but cozy property features an open plan living area with a modern kitchen, comfortable seating, and a state-of-the-art electric fire for ambiance. French doors open onto a stone terrace with views of the estuary, providing a peaceful spot to relax with a glass of wine and watch the boats on the water.
The cottage cleverly utilizes space with hidden cupboards and shelves, a bespoke sliding door to the bedroom, and a contemporary shower room with a large walk-in shower. Just a short walk away are local inns, tea rooms, and shops in the atmospheric village of Staithes, where old fishermen's cottages slope down towards the sea. Visitors can explore cobbled streets, narrow alleyways, the harbour, and take clifftop walks along the Cleveland Way.
The Staithes Heritage Centre Museum offers exhibits and information on Captain Cook, who once lived in the village. Nearby attractions such as Whitby are easily accessible from the cottage, making it an excellent base for a holiday in the North of England. With its quality furnishings, lovely views, and proximity to the coast, the Old Joiners Shop provides a delightful and comfortable stay for two guests.
