The Old Chapel is a well equipped gem and the perfect place to exhale for family, friends, kids & dogs.

Super holiday cottage

The Cottage was perfect for our party of 8. It's quirky layout across 3 floors means it is spacious and the decor is lovely. The position of the cottage means there is easy access to the sea front and as the property is detached we didn't have to worry about our noisy children disturbing the neighbours!

About the host

Host profile image
My family bought and still own a cottage in Staithes in 1966 . I spent happy childhood holidays running around the village and love that my own children now do so themselves. Indeed so often do we come for summer hols that I decided to buy somewhere bigger to come more often with a selection friends and family.

Why they chose this property

The Old Chapel has a solid elegance and scale that appeals and is in the heart of this beautiful and timeless old village.WEEKEND BREAKS (Fri / Sat / Sun AND MID-WEEK (Mon / Tues / Wed / Thurs) BREAKS MAY BE AVAILABLE OUTSIDE OF PEAK TIMES - PLEASE DO ENQUIRE re: availability To see all rates including weekend and mid-week break please see www.staithesoldchapel.com and click the "Rates" tab. The OD site often gets mid-week pricing wrong and it is not always available, so do enquire first.

What makes this property unique

I simply loved the space and ability of a party of all ages to find a somewhere in the house to occupy and something to do without being in one another's laps!
