What Guests Say
A warm welcome from the landlord and all the staff. An excellent comfortable room with a four poster bed and tea/coffee making facilities. Dining in the bar area or in the breakfast room - both nicely appointed and the inn has great character. The food is good quality pub-food, freshly cooked and in generous portions. A good size car park. The X93 and X94 buses to Scarborough, Robin Hoods Bay and Whitby stop very close to the inn which is convenient.

A very friendly pub with nice staff. Evening meals were excellent quality and value. Breakfasts were good if not exceptional. It's on a regular bus route (even Sundays) which serves most places between Whitby and Scarborough (with connections to further afield). Close to the Cleveland Way footpath and the Cinder Track which is a tarmacked old railway, great for cycling and walking along. A bottle of water and biscuits every day provided in the room.

This Inn had such a nostalgic feeling to it that I have been craving but has been hard to find as everyone these days seems to renovate things to tasteless modern standards. Elements from all the decades of life of this place are lovingly preserved. I also LOVED how much this place seems to be plugged into the local community, lots of folks in the pub, locals working the restaurant and chatting. I adored it. A very authentic experience. Ample and roomy parking. Dinner was so lovely I was thrilled I was able to order mushrooms on toast! The room and bathroom was nice and big too. My favourite place I stayed this week!

Lovely staff, very helpful and friendly. Very clean in all areas, well decorated and maintained. Nice and warm on a very cold NYE! The room was excellent; spotlessly clean and very well equipped. Loads of storage and a very comfy bed. We ate breakfast and dinner there for two days. Breakfast was served at the table and was the best we've had (in any hotel) in a long time! There was plenty of choice for dinner and the food was freshly cooked and excellent.

Third time staying here, best asset is the excellent staff. Quite dated property but very clean and good food. Room five had a barely functioning shower which was a little inconvenient. Staff are helpful, friendly, efficient and nothing was too much trouble for them. Liked the new outside seating area and having stayed previously in the newer accommodation block I would recommend staying in those rooms. We will certainly return as location is great for coastal resorts.

This is our second year staying here and it doesn't disappoint.The rooms are amazing, modern and clean. The staff are very friendly, The bar man especially. Breakfast is extremely good. The full English is especially good. We had a meal in the restaurant and was served very promptly and by friendly staff. Would definatly recommend the sea bass and the steak pie. Parking is good and it is in a lovely quiet village. Easy access to scarborough.

Our room (a small twin bedded) in the 'outside block' with its entrance 'lobby', excellent en-suite bathroom, the attractive dining areas in the pub itself (complete with gleaming copper & brass!), the excellent evening meals which included plain, fresh vegetables served in a side dish, the spacious car park... the friendly staff.

We had two breakfasts and an evening meal during our stay. The restaurant was a little bit "too cosy" for our liking and if it was possible for the property to utilise their other dining / bar areas that would improve things. Having said that the quality and presentation of the food was very good. We had a quiet room at the back of the hotel, the four poster bed was very comfortable but I don't think a 13.5 TOG quilt is needed, even in the cold weather during our stay.
