A 17th-century coaching inn, tucked beneath Whitby’s historic abbey, that creaks with character. Its ten quirkily shaped rooms mix original features with a cool, fresh look while the restaurant offers a bistro-style menu. Distinguished guests include the likes of Dickens and Captain James Cook.

Located in the peaceful Esk Valley with views of the moors sits this large Victorian farmhouse B&B. Cottage-style rooms are airy and luxurious with modern bathrooms. Enjoy tea and scones in the sitting room or sun-dappled gardens. Two good pubs within a 10-minute walk. A lovely country escape.
Whitby
Commanding one of the best positions in Whitby, high on the West Cliff with views of the famed Abbey, this hotel is just as startling inside. An Aladdin’s cave of vintage-themed rooms, it charms and disarms. There are even afternoon tea parties. A whimsical British stay.
Whitby (East Row)
A small hotel boasting both a spectacular location (on a river steps from the beach) and restaurant (of the seafood variety). Owner run, David will pick your wines while Tim whips up award-winning dishes in the kitchen. The rooms are charming and cosy. An idyllic coastal escape.
Whitby (Yorkshire)
A country house hotel beside the coast, Saltmoore is a very different kind of seaside hotel. In secluded woodland, 10 minutes from the beach near Whitby, it has a low-key elegance, a calming spa and choice of dining. Plus it’s family-friendly, too.
