Amazing stay at a lovely hotel close to the beach
Booked for a babymoon break over New Year and we got exactly what we wanted - a restful break in a hotel with great facilities. Our room was very comfortable especially the bed, the pool area is lovely with its windows on to the adjacent stream and waterfall, a great variety at breakfast and when we dined in the restaurant one evening, it was the best meal we had the whole trip. Highly recommend for trips to Whitby and the surrounding area.
