Little gem

A truely lovely pitstop. I was made to feel really welcome from the moment I arrived to the moment I left. Only slight downside was there was no phone signal and the wifi was sketchy, but absolutely perfect to get away from it all. Located in a beautiful area for walking/running/cycling

Great Place

Low season so place was almost empty which is a shame. I had a brilliant stay, room was spotlessly clean and very roomy and comfy. Very cosy. Smashing meal (recommend the curries), nice chat with Abi the owner, smashing chap, nothing too much trouble, same for the staff. I’ll be staying again, highly recommended and wonderful value for money. Oh and don’t pay for parking like I did, it’s free!!

Chewing gum! Spit it out or go away.

Quite honestly I will not be staying here again, hoped to get on with some work on my laptop while I was there, no chance! When it says free WiFi available, yes there is but, the WiFi does not work at all. Went to the bar for some food and the moody looking young girl who worked there stood 3 foot away from me chewing chewing gum louder than my cats eat, popping it on her tongue, very inappropriate behaviour while someone is trying to relax, let alone eat. The bed was comfy, that’s about the only thing I could say positive, oh and the guy who served me breakfast was friendly.

We had a really lovely time. Stayed for 3 nights and made use of the breakfasts and restaurant for the evening meal. The room was clean and comfortable. Being on the Cleveland Way long distance footpath, the hotel is geared for walkers, providing facilities for self catering, if needed. Great value. Really friendly and helpful staff.

Clean servucable, good value

Rooms and beds were basic but serviceable, we had 2 family rooms, in both rhe extra bed was uncomfortable and not fit for purpose. One room had 2 comfy chairs, a fridge and microwave, the other apparently same room no fridge microwave or comfy chairs. Had under gone some recent renovation but this is patchy and not too a great or consistent standard. The hotel offers a good base to explore from and meets all basic needs, is just a bit disappointing as the potential much more than delivered
