Horseshoe Hotel

Cosy pub/ restaurant with rooms. Nice situation. Quaint. I liked the ambience, it was nice that the antiquated old decor remained it gave the place authentic charm. Lovely outdoor garden. Easy access to Whitby and surrounding walking routes. I enjoyed the coffee and tea in our bedroom. There was a lovely platter of bread cheese and cake awaiting us on arrival

This property was old and quaint. Owners were lovely. Room and beds bijou but adequate for our stay. Food was delicious.

My bedroom and shower room were filthy, not just dusty, the dirt was brown and ingrained, I can't imagine when the last time a cloth had been used to clean the woodwork in either room and the last time it had been done the furniture hadn't been moved as between the side of the wardrobe and the wall on the floor and up the wall was thick muck. Paint was splattered all over the window. A window in the shower room must have been broken and this was repaired with pieces of wood. Curtains not hung properly so bits were hanging down. Furniture and fittings were dirty, chipped and were decrepit and ancient. A drawer base wasn’t attached properly any more and was falling down so couldn't be used. The cheese put out at breakfast looked like it had been around for weeks. I never saw the kitchen and given the general level of cleanliness I'm glad I didn't having eaten food prepared in it. In addition the place was cold an elderly lady who was also staying never had her coat off as she was freezing. The very loud cock which lives there with the hens started crowing at 2am preventing any sleep. I was booked for 4 nights and left first thing in the morning after one. In his favour Craig didn't even argue when I showed him all the grime and said I wished to leave. I have never stayed anywhere as awful as this and hope I never encounter anywhere like it again. Very hard to imagine anyone feeling comfortable staying there.

Ok stay Keeping in mind the room rate it was ok. Craig and staff were very pleasant and helpful. Food was excellent. Room was a bit tired and could do with a spring clean.

Stayed in the Hotel Car park in our Motorhome Electric power provided/ free WiFi Owner very helpful Dinner was excellent with a good food and wine menu choice Warm cosy Bar with open fire 10 minute walk to Egton Railway Station to catch theTrain to Whitby Ideal place to stay for walkers Will certainly return
