Jane can't do enough for u at breakfast time & always has a smile on her face. My only negative comment would be room was slightly dusty,... More

We were only in Whitby for the one night, and this place just made the visit complete, as we'd never stayed there before. We arrived just after 12 and were checked in immediately. the very friendly gentleman in charge upgraded us to the 'Whitby' room as we were one of the only people staying that evening. This room is on... More

I think the room was “Brunswick” It was a very pleasant, nicely decorated room with large windows towards the front of the guest house. This was overlooking the garden and the road but there was no noise from the road at all. There was a stylish en-suite bathroom, with good shower pressure. It’s a pet hate of mine if it’s... More

We stayed in the Grosmont room for one night and it was delightful. The room was clean and tidy with a very comfortable bed and a lovely, modern, spacious, clean bathroom. Unfortunately we didn't have time to bathe but the shower was a dream. Breakfast was served at a reasonable hour with a good choice of breakfast. We received a... More

Stayed in the "Whitby" room at very short notice last weekend - the room was beautiful, lovely decor and the en suite bathroom was very impressive. We had stayed at this guesthouse 3 years ago possibly when it had been newly refurbished and were very impressed then - the whole house looks just as good as it did then; excellent... More

Great big refurbished Victorian guesthouse. Very well decorated and very much in keeping with the period of the house. The room (Ruswarp) was tastefully appointed with a very good sized en-suite with spacious shower. Breakfast is a good hearty affair with cereals and fresh fruit juices and fruit. Full english followed but can be substituted by Scrambled eggs and Salmon... More
