The fix was to do as follows (note that this will reset your Safari preferences, so anything special you have set will need to be reset):

1. Close Safari.
2. Open up the Terminal app (start typing “Term” in the spotlight).
   
3. Type “cd ~/Library/Preferences/” without the quotes
4. Type “mv com.apple.Safari.plist ~/” without the quotes
5. Restart Safari. Voila.
