The Wilson Arms

This was a lovely venue and the staff were really friendly. Also, as I was leaving early for a sponsored walk and I would miss breakfast they made a packed lunch which was really thoughtful. My room was comfortable with a view of Whitby Abbey. I expect to go back and would recommend a visit.

Nice pub

This is a lovely pub just outside Whitby in a nice quiet area. It is clear that the pub and rooms have recently been renovated and they’ve done a good job. Breakfast was lovely. The only small issues were that the bed was squeaky and the shower was not as powerful as we would have liked. All in all a good one night stay.

Hidden gem

Excellent location just a short drive from Whitby. With no major hotel chains nearby this little Gym was found and I’ll certainly be returning every time I need to work in the area.

5 * Absolutely beautiful place to stay

I was a solo traveller, my 2 dogs accompanied me. I was absolutely blown away by the hotel, absolutey immaculate, the decor was beautiful, oak & brass. The hotel looked like it had recently been refurbished. I enjoyed a lovely walk into Whitby. The breakfast was the best ive had. The service and friendliness of the staff made me feel at ease. I really cant wait to go back. I've told so many friends and family about this place. Its my new favourite.

Very friendly staff in this pub with rooms located in a peaceful village setting outside the hustle and bustle of Whitby. Very good food, brilliant breakfast and a grand pot of tea. Local doorstep walks and a super walk into Whitby for those fit and active. A great find. Hope to visit again.

A little gem

We enjoyed a 3 night stay at The Wilson Arms. It’s a lovely little Restaurant/Pub/B&B. Tastefully decorated with modern touches although keeping some of the old charm. Everything was finished to a great standard and our room was very comfortable with comfy bed and good shower. It was an excellent base for exploring Whitby and the Yorkshire Moors. We used the P&R into Whitby which had, conveniently, just started running again for the Season Breakfast provided a good choice of cereal and cooked items and cooked and presented very well. We ate at the Inn on two nights (too full after fish & chips in Whitby the middle night!) and this was also good. The owner (Dawn?) and I think her name was Zoe, were very attentive and nothing was too much trouble. Altogether a lovely stay and we would definately recommend.

Super short stay!

Extremely helpful regarding an early check in. Lovely spacious room and large shower room. Kettle and tea/coffee items replenished. Great breakfast. All in a lovely pub with friendly staff. Was a super stay just above Whitby with car park in quiet surroundings and view of Whitby Abbey. Would most definitely stay here again.

Lovely place to escape to.

Lovely, quiet and comfortable place for a weekend getaway. Easy reach of Whitby and Robin Hoods Bay. Nice local walks, too. Good pub food and a great breakfast. Staff so friendly and helpful. Amazing value for money too!
