Staithes

[John 2]

Staithes is a pretty little East Coast harbour that sits in a cleft in the cliffs north of Whitby. One of our favourite paces.

Looks like a wonderful little village. Is there much public area? I could see myself trying to get to know the locals there

Thanks for the comments both.
@Dean_Gretsch - Dean, you need to be fit. The village is so compact that no cars are allowed except for residents vehicles. Access for non residents is only on foot down a fairly long steep road to the bottom of the cliff. Once you get there it is worth it though. There is a small beach and promenade overlooking the harbour and the place has managed to retain its old world charm. The only downside is the climb back out again to return to the car park at the top.
