Owner was welcoming and showed us everything we needed. Although he closed the bar early he still accommodated us with a couple of drinks to take up to our room. Breakfast was lovely... Could have eaten it twice! Lovely shower! Comfy bed and slept really well. Everything was clean and tidy and we liked the little bar... Just a shame it was closed early but we understand given it was quiet.
When we opened the door to the room it was very cold and took all night to warm up. There were lots of flies on the window and we had to dispose of about 20 in total but I totally get that sometimes one gets in and causes an issue.... Had that at home recently too so just dealt with it! Shame the bar wasn't open longer but maybe we should have let the owner know that we would be back for drinks. He was only too happy to give us some to take up to the room so not a criticism at all.

Location near to Grosmont. Clean.
No food available. Bar closed. No parking free. Very uncomfortable bed-far too soft. Breakfast from 8. Too late to get to the station in time. No alternative offered. Would definitely not recommend.

We couldn’t have breakfast due to leaving for a pre booked train ride before 8am, bacon cobs were given but the bread was all wet. The view from the room was a unsightly garden of weeds as high of trees, it needed some great attention
Bathroom was too cold, we couldn’t use the shower due to this, no hot water. No heating in room apart from 8.30pm for an hour and 6am to 7am the following morning. We should have stayed 2 nights but left after first. Room needed a deep clean, black mould on windows, bed linen needed ironing looked like it had been screwed up, just attention to detail required. The hotel itself needs a complete overall, when you pull up outside it doesn’t look inviting.

Entrance via a junkyard and a fire escape. Smelly room. Inflexible breakfast time (8-9am)

Everything! Unwelcoming dark corridor. Scruffy side yard to be used as entrance if bar shut. 'Deluxe room' small, basic, tea tray sparse. The dual aspect room should have been lovely overlooking the valley, beer gardens and train line. Unfortunately no table and chairs in garden just strewn with rubbish. I always check reviews and website but I don't think we checked into the same hotel! No evening meals 'unless she's cooking which might be spaghetti or a curry'! I had messaged time of arrival and booking both evenings for meals. I would have cancelled if we had been informed that there wasn't any. Total misrepresentation on website. A well deserved 2 night break away ruined as we left and went home and lost our money. I did email but no reply which says it all. Terrible

Very good breakfast but they could have had a menu
They could have had a handrail both sides of the stairs

Nice "full English" breakfast. We asked for poached eggs on toast one morning and they were very nice. No fruit or pastries available.
The room was disappointing. Not serviced or tea/coffee/milk replenished. The only mirror was above the sink in the en-suite, which was inconvenient. No dressing table or bedside table on one side. No bedside lights at all. No lampshade to the ceiling light.

The room was clean and comfortable , the owner and staff were very friendly , the location was good , quiet but very close to whitby by train , bus or taxi. The bar was good with a good choice of drinks. The breakfast was also good.
There was no food available , if we had known this we could have made some arrangements. This was the only negative.
10.0 / 10.0
The breakfast was excellent, with a choice of full English breakfast with toast and butter and jam or cereal and coffee or tea
The evening meals were very tasty and good value. When asked for extra milk, tea, sugar and coffee it was cheerfully given (to our hotel room)
There was also a good condition Bently piano which I played (well practiced on it (in fact I left my music 🎶 for the next player.
There could have been̈ a pool table.

Location was good, we had a local family event. Interesting to have the local steam railway to look out onto at the end of the garden. Bed was comfortable. Room seemed clean. Bathroom was clean and shower was good. Garden area has potential but was obviously "work in progress" so rather scruffy. Staff were helpful. Water was hot. Coffee was OK. Price was fair for what we had. Free parking available. Lockable bedroom door. A bar which we didn't try.
No toiletries in the bathroom. A liquid soap dispenser in the shower and above the basin as a minimum
Very hot weather: so a sheet and thin bedspread would have been ideal instead of a thick polyester duvet. There was no option. Dirty, sweat-stained mattress cover and pillow protectors. No wi-fi in the room.
Breakfast: we had said we were lacto-veggie on the booking. I appreciate the majority like "full English" - we obviously don't. My husband asked for poached egg on toast - one egg came on a slice of white sliced-bread toast. The 2nd morning my husband had an additionsl single plum tomato and a desertspoon of mushrooms. No wholemeal toast available. No marmalade only jam. No fruit juice. No menu. I asked if there was any plain yogourt. Sadly no, so my breakfast comprised: a banana, some grapes and a fruit yogourt. The lady serving was rather embarrassed I think. It would have taken so little effort to provide "help yourself" juice in a jug, some healthy cereals, white OR W/M bread to "do your own toast" in a toaster. We left before breakfast on the last morning as we had an appointment early afternoon. We broached the subject of breakfast before 8am but were told that was very unlikely so we left just before 8am. The place has great potential and it truly could be so much better with minimum expenditure and some insight into what seasoned travellers expect e.g. healthy eating options for guests. I wonder how many guests come back for a second visit. More probably would if the people running it upped their game in a few very basic areas. They may even get more recommendations.

Hotel room was superb (room 1) ground floor, overlooking the garden and railway but trains not a problem as don't run during night. Breakfast was really tasty full English, coffee, tea, toast and cerial, can recommend the full English. Owners very attentive, there if needed, car parking close which was bonus. We had lovely weekend and definitely would go back.

Staff was very nice and helpful, accommodating as we were late with arrival, beautiful and peaceful surroundings, with a local train station minutes away. Would definitely recommend 👌
The bedroom was a little on the small size but was appropriate for a short stay. For me, the mattress was too springy as im used to a firm mattress.

Shaun and the staff were very helpful and courteous.
I was allowed to store my motorcycle in a secure yard.
The standard of the hotel and my room were outstanding.
Only 100m to the railway station where a steam train passes.
Very well placed for visiting Whitby and the moors
No negative comments.

Very nice, comfortable and spacious room. Very tasty breakfast. Very friendly and helpful hosts. Will definitely stay again.
The only thing wrong, and it was an absolutely tiny thing that I quickly resolved myself, was that the kettle obviously hadn't been wiped down and there was a hair sticking to it. I used one of my own disposable wipes to clean it though so then it was fine. Sorry

Great friendly staff and location, good breakfast too.
Overall the breakfast was nice but the sausages could have been better quality , and maybe add a slice of fried bread and hash brown/ black pudding.

Room was tidy and clean on arrival. Shower good. Towel fine.
Location was OK for us, even though it was a 10-minute trip into Whitby, which we were aware of.
Breakfast. There was no soap or shampoo in the rooms, even after we asked for some; we ended up buying our own.
Both our rooms had a musky smell as though they were not aired. Rooms are not made up daily, so basically, you get your room and then vacate at the end of your stay. T.V. was small, but more importantly kept requesting updates every so often, and I had to sign in even with the BBC. Low-grade food items for breakfast. Not real butter. Low-grade baked beans, cereal containers were almost empty and not refilled 2nd day either, cereals supplied were budget brand. No side plate at breakfast table (both days), Cheap napkins, no marmalade option. Milk for tea had to be asked for after being given a coffee in error. Pleasant enough to speak to but unfortunately no attention to detail regarding the service received. Price was cheaper than others, but you got less, so no win.

Didn't feel it was value for a double deluxe room which was pretty basic,but the bed was comfy
Lack of deluxe,furniture was a bit dated ,one chair considering there were a couple sharing room ,a stool for a bedside,certain level of cleanliness needs to be considered(tv unit dusty)

Bathroom was good great shower and space, comfortable bed.
Attention to detail, some areas not quite cleaned, one pillowcase was yellowing, lack of body wash, lack of cereal choice. Felt suitable for children coco pops/crunchy nut corn flakes. Poor quality sausage.

The room was spacious. The location is good, quiet place but also quite close to Whitby (by car).
The walls were like paper. We could hear basically everything from the room next to ours. There was no soap in the bathroom. No shower gels, shampoo..which is good, we had our own but at least hand soap would be nice. The whole place felt a bit shabby, but the duvets and towels were clean.

Lovely clean room with large walk in shower,bed ex and view of trains from window would have been great but steam went running due to fire risk.Sean was a lovely host couldn’t do enough for you ,good full English to start the day but evening meal very limited choice as he seemed to be running place on his own.
Sean seems to be workinGioe he gets there as he is hard working guy g on his own so .a number of minor issues esp at meal times. need addressing plus bar hrs seem dependant ion footfall and staff issues

We stayed in 6 hotels/ guest houses over a 2 week period. Salmon Leap was poor for breakfast in comparison to others & was the most expensive. We appreciate the establishment is being refurbished but presently, although clean, very basic.
