Most guests found the property clean, with several describing it as spotlessly clean and well-maintained. However, some reviews mentioned issues such as dusty blinds, unclean ovens, and occasional lapses in deep cleaning, particularly in bathrooms and the hot tub. These comments suggest generally good standards with some room for improvement.
The location is highly praised, with guests enjoying the peaceful setting, proximity to Whitby town centre, and access to scenic walks. The only minor drawback mentioned is the steep hill into town, which may be challenging for those with mobility issues.
Guests consistently highlight the comfort of the beds, spacious rooms, and relaxing atmosphere. Some noted limited lounge seating for larger groups, but overall comfort levels are rated very highly.

Only regret is that we had to leave ! We walked in ( online pictures do not do justice ) clean fresh bright and spacious. Absoloutely fabulous. On arrival milk and a cake left out for us. Toilet rolls and handwash also. Condiments also. Cannot fault. Beds were comfortable,clean and space for clothes storage was in abundance. This was for my 50th birthday. I have never felt so relaxed. Aldi B n M Sainsburys less than a mile. Special walks surrounding. Not far from centre of Whitby. The gentleman that owns this has thought of everyrhing. This.property will remain in my mind forever. Thanks and if we return to Whitby it would be here i would return to.
