Staying in Saltburn-By-The-Sea

Saltburn-By-The-Sea sits on the North Yorkshire coast, and this site counts 341 places to stay here, with 102 of them rated 3-star and an average guest score of 4.5 out of 5. The town itself is a seaside base: the addresses in this shortlist put the hotels and cottages in the coastal settlements that cluster around it, from Staithes and Hinderwell to Runswick and the lanes above the town.

The 3-star options here are a mixed group. They include inns and hotels with bars, restaurants, free wifi and free car parking, such as The Cliffemount Hotel, The Captain Cook Inn and Runswick Bay Hotel, and self-catering cottages with kitchens and gardens, such as Mulgrave Cottage, Post Box Cottage and Fairholme. That spread suits couples on a short break, families who want space and a kitchen, and walkers or business travellers who need parking, wifi and a straightforward room. For a first visit, base yourself in one of the village addresses and use the car to reach the rest of the coast.
