Striking in appearance, the living area features a bold, blue feature wall and a contemporary driftwood sculpture by a local Redcar artist in the fireplace. The ideal place to relax after a day of exploring the local area, you can kick back on one of the sofas and switch on the Smart TV to keep up with your favourite shows. If you’d rather unwind in peace, there is a curated bookcase of art and travel themed books, as well as walking maps.

Also close to Loftus is the charming fishing village of Staithes. The quaint coastal hamlet was recently named one of Britain’s most beautiful seaside villages. It has high cliffs, winding streets and mismatched cottages bursting with charm. Staithes is a magnet for art and artists alike. Throughout the village you’ll find amazing painted illusions known as the ‘Painted Illusions Trail’ created by the famous artist Paul Czainski. It is also the home to the impressionist art society, known as Staithes Group, and their work can always be seen dotted around. Visit Staithes Gallery and browse the wonderful exhibits inspired by the village. Getting Around: Artist House is within walking distance of all that Loftus has to offer. It is within 15 minutes’ drive time of Saltburn and Staithes, and 30 minutes’ drive time Whitby so the coast can be easily explored. The closest train station is located in Saltburn and has routes to Longbeck, Redcar, Middlesbrough and Darlington with connecting trains to Newcastle, York, Leeds, Manchester and London. There are a number of bus routes throughout Loftus. Hop on the Arriva North East 5 which travels through to Middlesbrough.

Always was a parking space directly outside the property. Spoke to a lot of the locals while out walking the dog who were all very friendly. There's a community park around the corner which is ideal for walking a dog. Chip shop also around the corner although it had odd opening hours so work checking. Close to Saltburn, Staithes and Whitby so ideal for exploring the local area. Recommended. ##### Steve F. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Belmont House . Self catering coastal holiday home .
