We often stay in Whitby around twice a year and we have to say that we stumbled across Bensons while trying to find some accomodation. Well what a gem of a place. There are only two rooms and the room we stayed in was exceptional. The attention to detail and luxurious bedroom and bathroom where beautiful. The breakfast was great... More

We have just returned from our second fabulous stay at Bensons Town House having stayed there last year and being thoroughly impressed with both the standard of the accommodation and the superb warm welcome we received from Jon and Sarah. This stay was just as good as our previous one; the breakfast is fantastic, the level of cleanliness throughout is... More

An absolutely stunning building inside and out, that takes your breath away! Jon and Sarah (and later Hunny) were super welcoming, with nothing too much trouble, and their attention to every detail and the pride they have in their beautiful home shone through. Even before we arrived we had been in touch to find out where to eat as we... More

From the point of booking service was exceptional. On arrival the beautifully restored house wows as does Jon's description of doing it up. Attention to detail is 2nd to none and our room, the smaller of the 2, was delightful especially with the special treats and the pillows which were so comfortable we found out where they had got them...

Yet another amazing stay at Jon and Sarah's beautiful townhouse! You will not find a better more welcoming b&b on the east coast! Rooms are outstanding with everything you need, and we were welcomed with coffee and homemade scones as well as a chilled mini bottle of prosecco in the room. The attention to detail is unrivalled! Breakfast is the... More

Bensons Townhouse is ran by two of the nicest people you would ever wish to meet. They offered a first class service, immaculate accommodation and a fantastic breakfast. Not to mention the welcoming home made cream scones and complimentary coffee. This has to be the best townhouse in the UK let alone Whitby. We would highly recommend to everyone.

What a fabulous place and fabulous service. We arrived quite late on due to traffic on the way over, but what a warm welcome when we arrived. Jon was outside to meet us, help us inside and show us to our room. The room itself was stunning with a high level of attention to detail. Everything about our stay was... More

My Wife and I stayed at Bensons Townhouse for four nights in February 2013 and I don't think there is a single thing we could fault. There was an excellent welcome from Jonathan and Sarah, the house has been beautifully restored internally and looks fabulous. Our room was super, with a very modern, well presented en-suite. Breakfast was very relaxed... More
