I stayed to walk the CTC across the UK. It was right next to the train station, so I could see the train passing by from the window, which was very romantic. Although the sound of the train passing by is a little loud. The room was so comfortable!

A quirky large old country hotel with a roaring fire in the hall to welcome you, great location, fantastic service, tasty food and wonderful hospitality, nothing was too much trouble for Jacki and her team. A wonderful homely hotel able to accomodate larger family and group gatherings. Reading some of the older reviews I read before our weekend led me to expect a very run down hotel, I was pleasantly surprised to find my room and the public areas to be spacious and clean, Yes the hotel furniture and fittings are not new and shiny but the atmosphere and great hospitality more than make up for the need for a little TLC. Looking forward to our next gathering there.

Rang ahead on Saturday afternoon & were greeted by a lovely lady on the phone who arranged for us to park overnight in our campervan after our evening meal. Food was so nice,I had a burger & home cooked chips & my better half indulged in the carbonara,I may have even pinched some of hers 😊 Definitely recommend this little gem of a spot to anyone visiting the area,even having breakfast here before we head back home. Our 1st night kid free for what seems like forever & we certainly picked the perfect place Thanks to all the super friendly,helpfulstaff & of course the chef 😊

We stayed here for one night before setting off on our 15 day Coast to Coast Hike to Robin Hood’s Bay in North Yorkshire. The building externally & internally isn’t the most attractive of hotels; a bit dated and uninspiring. However the hotel was clean, the room was pleasant with a sea view and the bathroom was also clean and adequate for our one night stay. The reception staff were very welcoming and helpful. The food isn’t going to win any prizes, but was wholesome and of good quality-my only complaint was the size of the portions- massive! Too much to be honest, and a lot of food seemed to be heading back to the kitchen. The two tables either side of us, and ourselves included said the food was nice, but the portions overwhelming and sadly we couldn’t finish the main courses. For the purpose of our one night stay, Seacote was ok, but I wouldn’t return for a ‘treat’ or longer stay.

Tricky to review this place as you get what you pay for, and it was 'ok' but given the reviews on here I was expecting a lot better. Personally I wouldn't stay again but have gone with 3/5 to try to be fair. The rooms are above a noisy pub and when I stayed looked like they were having roof problems as there was tarpaulin and buckets all over the roof outside the window. Thr room itself was spacious but a real paradox - in some ways very nicely decorated and maintained but in others pretty tatty/poorly thought through. For example, one bed was across the front of the wardrobe making it unuseable. The kettle had no socket anywhere near it to enable it to be used, and one of the lamps appeared to be shorting out, flashing on and off. The bathroom was similarly odd, with decent quality material but a tap that refused to get warm and a shower tray that moved when standing on it, feeling like it was about to give way. There was also various noises (fans running?) periodically throughout the night that were enough to keep waking me, and give some pretty poor nights sleep. Although the bed was advertised as Super King, it was actually 2 singles pushed together, which is a pet hate as it it both uncomfrotable and significantly shorter than a King/Super King. No toiletries were provided in the room despite being included in the listing and was told they had none when asking about this. I stayed two nights and there was no servicing of the room either.
