The Captain Cook Inn, 60 Staithes Lane, Staithes, TS13 5AD

The pretty harbour town of Staithes is wonderfully picturesque and a huge draw for tourists and day-trippers who visit the stunning Yorkshire Coast. Sheltered between cliffs and looking out to sea, this quaint and historic fishing village, with narrow cobbles streets lined with shops and café’s and was once the home of Captain James Cook. Staithes is just one on many “honey pot” visitor destinations in the area such as Runswick Bay, Robin Hood’s Bay and of course, the world famous town of Whitby which lies around 10 miles away. The town is also in the North York Moors National Park, which again attracts world wide visitors due it its wild and rugged landscapes and beautiful villages and hamlets.

The beautiful village is one of only a handful of places where the sun is known to both rise and set into The North Sea.

On the ground floor of the inn is the bar, restaurant and dining room which can accommodate up to around 100 diners and this is serviced by a bar servery and a good sized catering kitchen, which has a 5 star hygiene rating.

Fixtures and fittings are included, with the exception of items that are personal to our client.

To the rear of the Inn is the owners three bedroom house which also features a kitchen, lounge, bathroom, shower room, office and laundry.

There is also a very large garage/storage room ideal for conversion to extra accommodation.

Beyond the house is a static caravan the owners currently rent out, a garden, which could be put to a variety of uses, and parking.

All nine bedrooms are en suite and are very well presented, many with lovely views towards the sea or across the moors. There are six doubles and three family rooms, all with flat screen TV and tea/coffee making facilities. The rooms boast generous proportions and are well fitted out.

To the rear and side of the inn are 13 car parking spaces, which are at a premium in the town. There is also a beer garden to the side which enjoys pleasant views of the surrounding countryside, including the remnants of the old viaduct that once spanned the ravine, and the spectacular Boulby Cliffs.
