Fantastic scenic experience with wonderful staff who were eager to ensure our comfort. Dinner at the restaurant was divine and capped off a lovely stay. I had some personal discomfort with the type of spring mattress in our room, however, overall we enjoyed a comfortable and relaxing stay.

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.

We really enjoyed our stay but found the cleaning timetable below expectations. We like to relax after lunch but our room was not cleaned until after 3pm which meant that we had to arrange our activities around the hotel schedule rather than the other way round. When we asked there appeared to be no flexibility in the cleaning schedule .

A Night away

A remote hotel with a 15 minute walk in to Sandsend, remote but lovely and the small village had a great pub for food and drink. We also had a drink in the hotel bar before heading out, prices were very reasonable, the full english breakfast was good, not as big as some hotels but kept us full. Rooms were great, pool was fantastic, staff were always lovely, what more can you ask.

We have been to Raithwaite Hall before and it was precisely the same as the last time we came. It is a fabulous venue/location. The only slight criticism I would make is that the room we stayed in (407) is becoming a little tired.

Comfy room, lovely. SPA good. Gardens beautiful. Breakfast decent. Draught lager is truly awful, sourcing local for the sake of it is wrong if quality isn't there. Old bar was better, more choice and cosier.

Made use of spa facilities, book early for evening meal and treatments. Quiet location. Breakfast hot food ordered at the table with a very good selection of cold buffet products.

Couple of nights

We really like this hotel , the only problem we found was that as it was school holidays in this area they allow children into the spa area for swimming so we couldnot relax as excited children made it a little noisy, also our room was next to rooms with children in so this caused noise also , we are not against children as we have grandchildren also but we went for a relaxing break and we found this a little difficult to relax. This hotel is in a lovely area and the staff are very welcoming and polite.

Stay 04/06 - 07/06

The accommodation was very well equipped and the bed was exceptionally comfortable. The spa facilities were very clean and enjoyed the pool and the steam room. Food in the restaurant was excellent as was the ale I tried. All the staff, whether within the main hotel or The Hyde where we stayed were so helpful and polite. Nothing seemed too much bother to the staff. The buggy service between The Hyde and the main hotel I had not expected to use but we did after using the spa and very quickly someone was available to drive us down. Thank you all
