    Where do I start! As soon as you walk through the door you enter a world of luxury and attention to detail. The collection of music memorabilia was amazing, only upstaged by the leopard print carpet! Our room (no 2) was stunning. The bed was huge and the period features were dramatic. Everything from the complimentary chocolates, fruit cake and high end toileteries made it special. The breakfast was delicious and set you up for the day! The hosts were really friendly and knowledgeable about Whitby. Would not hesitate to return in the future.

    Brilliant location. I loved the quirky design of the house and loved that I could look across to Whitby Abbey from my attic bedroom. The decor was lovely. Simple but homely. It was near to the station.

    We loved this hotel! One of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. lovely decor, a lot of thought has clearly been put into the design. Charming to learn about local folklore through the names of the rooms. The key code system worked really well and the bar downstairs did a delicious healthy brunch

    The location was perfect, in the centre of everything. The modern decor and attention to design and detail was lovely. The beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed sitting outside in the evening with the lights on and heater on. Would definitely stay again.
