Great peaceful place with beautiful views. We were well looked after and the owners made it possible for us to check in and use the room before our official check in time which was really helpful. Breakfast was lovely.

Wilsons Arms
The Wilsons Arms is a delightful hotel, in a hamlet, away from the hustle and bustle of Whitby.
The rooms were beautiful but one bin had not been emptied and one shower did not function properly in the evening. It did the next morning.
Staff were friendly and the pub had a wonderful atmosphere in the evening.

Lovely but…….
It was a lovely place to stay but the room was cold and no hot water or none of the usual toiletries you would expect to find. Also toe nail clippings at side of bed which was gross. More pillows would have been good. Food was lovely and a very modern stylish restaurant.

Excellent stay
The Wilson Inn is a lovely pub and restaurant with really comfortable rooms and decor. We stayed for 2 nights and everything was so clean including the modern bathroom . Staff were friendly and meals were excellent including the breakfast. Only a couple of miles from Whitby and lots of other places of interest, including the North Yorkshire Moors steam railway and Goathland. Would definitely recommend.

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.

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.

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.

Lovely hotel with view of Whitby abbey in distance
Lovely hotel, situated in a lovely village with views of Whitby abbey from our window, recently renovated. Bedroom was nice and clean as was bathroom, 2 pillows were provided one hardish the other soft but flatter, could have done with something in between. Evening meal and breakfast were good, well cooked and hot.
Was in a lovely quiet area so very quiet on a night. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Could do with a shower holder in the shower so not bobbing up and down to get things off the shower floor, but that's a minor thing. Had a lovely folk band on in the new extension area.
Would definitely recommend and definitely stay here again.

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.
