Free WiFi
Access to next door is through the garden. Although enclosed, the garden is not completely dog-proof with open access to woodland beyond the garden.The hill is very steep down into the village centre and the property is accessed down a couple of steps making it potentially challenging for those with mobility issues.Note although there are three bedrooms and beds for 5 adults (plus a child's bed in the top bedroom, downstairs is 'very cosy' if 5 adults are staying.There is an open fire and there may be solid fuel ready to use; if you are lucky enough to find some (check the shed), then we ask visitors to return the favour and leave some behind. Likewise, there are generally some buckets and spades 'donated' by other visitors for the enjoyment of children.There is a small freezer in the outhouse, but as the kitchen is small, we are sorry there is not much room if bringing frozen food. .Enjoy our home from home.
There are low banisters at the property.
There is limited internet signal and/or mobile reception at the property.

Very good

Cliff cottage was the perfect retreat for me. It's set in beautiful surroundings in the lovely village of Staithes and even has it's own parking space which was great.The only thing I would point out was there wasn't a spare toilet roll so it was a good job I had taken one with me!I would definitely stay there again.
