We loved the Sea View room. The location was close enough to walk in to the town and the Whitby Abbey. The information provided in the room was excellent and the whole experience was welcoming and homely.

What can I say but... FANTASTIC! There is absolutely nothing to fault with this marvellous B&B. Linda is the perfect host, such a lovely, helpful lady. We had a most memorable visit and stay in Whitby. We chose to walk into Whitby each day and leave our car at the B&B. Linda showed us an easier route to walk there. Went to the Abbey (YHA cafe, within the Abbey grounds, is ideal for a quick bite). Whitby is a pretty 'Olde Worlde Towne'. Lots to do and see.   We also enjoyed our visit to Goathland (Aidensfield in TV's Heartbeat). Get there early before the steam train arrives but even then, when there was more people, it was manageable. There are some walks around Goathland, so wear good footwear if you want to do that activity. Unfortunately the pub (Aidensfield Arms) was closed but there is a tea room where the little shops are.

Location: right in the centre, close to 199 steps, plenty of good places to eat and drink close by, at the same time accommodation is hidden inside a quite narrow street. We stayed in Room #2 facing a nice and peaceful inside yard of neighbouring accommodation. Room: not too small, just a decent size, at the same time with a spacious bathroom and a big shower (at least twice bigger than what you usually can see in similar accommodations). Very nice amenities - hot chocolate, coffee, Yorkshire tea, milk, 2 cups, 2 water glasses and even a wine opener and 2 wine glasses! Communication: was on a very high and well-organised level - from messages with all necessary instructions through Booking messenger to a folder in the room with a warm welcoming message from the owners, recommendations about the city and even a breakfast menu. Small details: the place is very warm and cosy, with a lot of nice details and decor in the common area and room. Breakfast in Sanders Yard: didn't try unfortunately, were still too full after dinner, but menu looks good, prices are average for that area but in-house guests have a 10% discount. One more bonus - direct access from the accommodation to the cafe. Parking: we got a message prior to our arrival about possible places where to leave a car. Car parking on Church Street is very small, no chance to catch a spot there on weekends or bank holidays. We left our car in the parking near Abbey, the price is the same (9£ / 24h) but much more space.

Room was immaculate. Bed was extremely big and comfortable. Location was handy and a short walk into Whitby. Parking on the road outside and we were provided with a display disc. We didn’t have breakfast, but they offer this every morning as an option. Lovely stay, thank you.
