One of the charms of Staithes is that there’s very little traffic and restricting parking is one of the ways in which it’s kept a peaceful feel.
Unloading
There is a 20 minute unloading space available right outside Pelican and plenty of 40 min spaces nearby so you can unpack, drop off shopping, the family, then drive back up to a car park. This spot is quite rare as the village is ostensibly traffic free and of course fewer cars is one of the charms of Staithes.
Car parking for your stay
Car parking for you stay is available at Bank Top car park, Staithes Lane, Staithes, TS13 5AD – we do usually have 2 parking passes for guests to use, but unfortunately they don’t guarantee a space. If you are visiting out of season it’s free (November to the end of February).
Or you could book a place for your car at Glen Vale, a privately run car park at the top of the village. They charge £10 per vehicle per day but you do get a reserved place and CCTV monitoring. You will need to pre book ahead to secure a place. The website is www.parkingstaithes.co.uk
