I’m James – a lover of slow mornings, honest conversation, and the wild, healing air of the North Sea. Hosting isn’t just about providing a bed; it’s about offering a moment in time—a place where guests feel seen, comfortable, and free to be themselves. I’ve put my heart into making Smugglers a sanctuary where modern needs meet old-school hospitality. Whether it’s helping you find the perfect coastal path, or pointing you to the best local butcher, I’m here to make your stay feel effortless. I believe in the power of space and silence, and in the magic of Saltburn’s shifting skies. My aim? That you leave lighter than you arrived. This property is new: However, please see Penthouse North, Sea Front Penthouse South and Captain's Rest, on Booking, for guest reviews. Smugglers is my largest unit with unrivalled sea views from the front balcony, kitchen and living room.

Welcome to Smugglers – your front-row seat to the rhythm of the sea. Perched on Saltburn’s elegant Marine Parade, this apartment boasts one of the largest private balconies on the seafront. Imagine starting your day with the sound of gulls, a steaming cup of tea in hand, and nothing but ocean ahead. The balcony seats four comfortably and includes a table for dining, writing, or simply watching the tide roll in. Inside, you’ll find tasteful, uncluttered décor blending modern comfort with timeless British charm. Every detail has been chosen to help you slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect. It’s a space for reflection, romance, or retreat. Whether you’re walking barefoot back from the beach, reading in the sun, or enjoying a quiet evening under the stars, Smugglers brings you back to when life was simpler—when a sea breeze and good company were all you needed

Saltburn isn’t just a place—it’s a feeling. A bohemian seaside town steeped in Victorian elegance, it offers something rare: tranquillity without boredom. Take the cliff tram down to the pier, stroll the Italian Gardens, or surf the consistent waves. You’ll find artisan coffee shops, quirky galleries, and musicians playing outside the pub as the sun goes down. Locals are warm, life moves gently, and everything feels just a little more… alive. Here, you’re not just visiting—you’re returning to something familiar and grounding. Whether you’re drawn to yoga on the sand, fish and chips in paper, or a bracing walk on the moor, Saltburn invites you to slow down and feel at home.
