The property

Pinjarra is a rustic Grade II listed cottage with rich history, having once been home to the young Laura Johnson, who later became the renowned artist Dame Laura Knight DBE RA RW.

In the late 1800s, she lived here for a period and created her art as part of the Staithes Group, also known as the Northern Impressionists.

A perfect setting for those looking to connect with the area's artistic heritage situated in the picturesque North York Moors National Park in the quaint village of Staithes, North Yorkshire.

Boasting an elevated position with pleasing views, off-road parking, and welcoming two well-behaved dogs, it’s perfect for small families or friends seeking a coastal retreat.

Upon entering Pinjarra, you will be greeted by the inviting sitting room, where you can unwind in front of the TV, all under the characterful charm of exposed beams.

Moving through the property up two steps, you will find the well-equipped kitchen, ready for you to prepare your favourite meals.

Adjacent to the sitting room is the dining room, comfortably seating three guests, where you can enjoy your culinary creations under the rustic charm of more exposed beams.

When the day draws to a close, retire to one of the two inviting bedrooms, accessed by different staircases, a double and a single, both offering a serene space to rest after a day of exploration.

The property also benefits from a bathroom, complete with a bath and shower-over, basin and WC, providing a space to freshen up before or after your day's adventures.

Outside, you'll discover a fence Yorkshire stoned patio area, complete with a bench, ideal for enjoying a morning coffee or an evening drink To the front of the property up two steps, there is an additional raised patio area, offering great views of the surrounding area, making it an ideal spot to relax and take in the picturesque scenery.

When you can pull yourself away from the inviting comforts of Pinjarra, take leisurely strolls through the historic streets of Staithes, once the home of Captain Cook.

Visit the Staithes Museum, a cultural treasure trove which offers captivating insights into the village's heritage.

Don't miss out on a traditional seaside meal at the famed Cod & Lobster, serving locally-sourced seafood that you simply can't resist.

Venture a little further afield to explore the atmospheric ruins of Whitby Abbey, a must-visit destination famed for its connection to Bram Stoker's Dracula and its phenomenal outlook over the coast.

Back at Pinjarra, as day melts into star-studded night, you will find this beautiful retreat waiting to welcome you home.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

Where you’ll be staying

STAITHES

Whitby 10 miles.

The charming and sleepy seaside village of Staithes, with its cobbled streets and back alleys, is something of an artist’s dream. Its pretty houses and cottages are clustered around the old harbour and surrounded by high craggy cliffs on three sides, with a sheltered sandy beach set amongst the rocky coastline. The village can claim connections with Captain Cook who was apprenticed to a draper near the harbour. Nowadays, Staithes is a must for anyone visiting the Yorkshire Coast and has a good selection of pubs, shops and tea rooms. Staithes is still home to an RNLI lifeboat station and a small fleet of cobles (fishing boats) landing fish, crab and lobster, with boat trips for birdwatching, fishing and even whale watching available. It’s also the location of the popular BBC children’s TV series, Old Jack’s Boat. Staithes has a strong attraction for artists, with an annual Art and Heritage Festival, galleries and artists studios with art courses and workshops regularly on offer. There’s a free Illusion Trail, which guides visitors around the network of ginnels (alleyways), with trail guides available locally. The best views of the town can be enjoyed from the Cleveland Way which runs down the cliff to the sea’s edge. Altogether a superb base for exploring the Yorkshire Coast, visiting the larger resorts of Whitby or Scarborough and enjoying the moorland villages of the North York Moors National Park.
