A wonderful two night stay. The hosts Bob and Anita were lovely, very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The room we stayed in was beautifully decorated, spacious with a large king size bed and our bathroom was huge. The little biscuits and chocolates were a nice little surprise. The breakfasts were fantastic with a choice of fresh fruit, pastries amazing freshly baked bread and butter pudding then a hot breakfast. Perfect Location: the beach is at the end of road, a minute away and the town is a nice 10mins stroll away. Abbotsleigh is one of the best guest houses/B&B we have stayed in and would highly recommend.

The extra mile

Amazing. I fell very ill and was taken to hospital. The way Bob and Anita looked after my wife was the pure definition of going the extra mile. They extended our booking foc until I could travel and made sure she did not worry too much. I cannot thank them enough. Amazing breakfasts, very clean modern room and very friendly and caring hosts

Outstanding Guest House in Whitby

We stayed for 3 nights in August and could not have asked for any better - a first class guest house. Paul & Sharon were fantastic hosts, the room was lovely and well appointed, and the breakfasts were amazing! I'd highly recommend the Abbotsleigh for anyone considering a break in Whitby.

A most memorable stay

We were warmly greeted at Abbotsleigh by hosts Paul and Sharon, who immediately made us feel really welcome in their home. The room was spacious and spotless and the wetroom shower was amazing! Nothing was too much trouble and our breakfasts exceeded expectation. Every day we were treated to a home baked goody which we had in our room with a cup of tea. The entire stay was memorable and we highly recommend this guesthouse to anyone. Paul and Bev

Lovely place, lovely people

Friendly, and welcoming guest house. Sharon and Paul were attentive and nothing was too much trouble. They even make their own jams and breads. They are knowledgable of the,area and happy to give information and answer questions. The Ammonite room was well decorated, bright and large. The bed was large and comfortable. The bathroom was a large fully tiled wet room. The location is good, about 20 minutes walk into the centre. I would definitely recommend this guest house for stays in Whitby.
