History of Glendevon
Although we're not sure exactly how old Glendevon is precisely we have a documentary records dating from the early 19th century up to the present day We know that the cottage has been inhabited by a succession of families working in seafaring and mining - industries and occupations of importance to the local area. Glendevon is a genuine fishermens' cottage The profession of Master Mariner features in the ownership records commentary - a Master Mariner was the highest qualification possible in the Merchant Navy Local Staithes names are connected to the cottage - Ward - Shippey - Crooks - Theaker In 1861 Glendevon had 3 residents - this had risen to 8 in 1871 and included a young girl as a house servant - Sarah Crooks, and a lodger Ann Theaker In 1881 one of the sons of the household Matthew Ward was at sea and is recorded as serving on the 'True Love' a fishing vessel from Whitby manned by Staithes fishermen By 1911 Matthew was in the fish business on his own account as a Hawker owning his own horse and cart. It is not hard to imagine Matthew shouting his wares on 'The Staithe' then delivering orders by horse drawn transport to local villages

Amazing
Staithes is mine and my partner's favourite place in the UK. We have stayed in Staithes a few times now and I can honestly say I would recommend this cottage to anyone. The location is perfect with a bit of a sea view from the bedroom window. The cottage has a lovely cosy feel to it, beds are really comfy and has everything you need for a short/ long stay. Thank you Anne!

Home from home
It was very quaint and superb as a ‘little home’ to come back to, at the end of the day. Lovely warm and snug, particularly when we sat down to an open fire.. lovely treat. Beds comfy and warm… just what you need for a break away!! Ps bonus was a few yards away is a pub, which accommodates food intolerances. Why go anywhere else!!

Wonderful
What a lovely little Gem of a place. The cottage has outdoor seating with a partial sea view which was lovely. The side garden was also a bonus. The cottage was clean and comfy especially the beds. The booking was really easy as was finding the place with all the information the host gave. Wonderful communication thank you so much.

Short break in Staithes.
Quaint property no more than 100 metres from the beach and pub/restaurant. Efficient check-in arrangements. On the whole, a very enjoyable stay. If walking to the car parks, turn right when exiting the cottage and follow the path. Walk is only a few mins and gradient quite gentle compared to the road.
