Welcoming but tired

Rooms were clean and comfortable but super hot, even with fully opened windows. There’s a radiator in the wardrobe but no fans. The heat was the same throughout the building, noted by other guests in the breakfast room.

There’s a sign in the bathroom re. lack of water pressure due to “age & layout” of the property. There must be something that could be done to improve that. After a very warm night’s sleep a trickle of water in the shower was not what was needed.

Breakfast was average with brusque service. Bacon burnt and tomato ketchup that I have tasted nothing like before (and mot in a good way)

Two night stay.

Our second visit to the Blacksmiths Arms. Stayed in room 11 which was one of the little cottages at the rear of the property. Very comfortable room with full length shower in the bathroom. The food was outstanding with a good breakfast selection and delicious evening meals. The staff are very helpful and friendly. There is a bus stop on the main road every half hour to Whitby (via Robin Hood’s bay) and Scarborough in the opposite direction so we were able to leave the car and travel by bus. Would definitely stay again.

Friendly Relaxing Hotel

Very nice friendly hotel, good breakfast each morning, also used the restaurant each evening, and excellent menu choices, reasonable priced, we really enjoyed all meals we had.
Bedroom, room 4 at front of hotel, was clean bright, and clean, with plenty of drawers large wardrobe, with ensuite.
Slight noise from main road but window had double glazing.
Plenty free parking in car park at rear of hotel, we did not use our car for the three day stay, as bus stop right outside hotel in both directions for Scarborough 10min and Whity 20 min straight fair of £2 each way, so no parking costs which are expensive at £4.40 for two hours.
Would definitely recommend staying here if on the area.

Nice

Really nice place let down by a desperate need to upgrade the decor and fix the plumbing. Whilst we couldn't fault the cleanliness, the water pressure in the shower was little more than a trickle. The decor is very dated. Our room overlooked a surprisingly busy main road which was noisy when the windows were open (a must in the heat, the room was very hot). The pub itself is lovely and a great base for getting around.

Excellent place to stay.

A traditional pub with rooms-fabulous food,all the staff are really friendly and welcoming. The room was a decent size with a small but adequate bathroom. Furnished in keeping with the age and style of an old pub but all very clean. My only suggestion for improvement would be to have a larger and more comfortable bed.
Breakfast cooked to order which was delicious. Free parking. Bus stop outside to go to either Whitby or Scarborough for £2! Cheaper than town centre parking.
The B & B rate is great value for money.
I would have no hesitation in returning or recommending.

Room was cold, wardrobe door didn’t close, one waitress was unco-operative when I requested cheese and biscuits instead of dessert then later served them to the next table. When my husband quietly questioned her about this in the bar when paying the bill, she denied knowing anything about it.
We stayed there before COVID for several days and enjoyed our visit but now would neither return nor recommend it to others
The food was good and breakfast staff excellent. Pity about the evening!

The Blacksmith Arms Inn is a beautiful estate with so much history and character. The owners and staff were all very friendly ready to share stories from long ago including hosting a luncheon for Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip just 10 years ago. Fascinating conversations!
The only con is exiting the grounds. The building is located on a curve and the street is boarded by tall shrubs. During the day it can be very dangerous exiting the parking lot. At night at least you on coming headlights. Be careful!

What a gem of a find and without hesitation would return. The bus stop is literally just outside around the corner where we got the bus to Scarborough for £2 esch way. We did the pub quiz on the Wednesday night for a good cause at only £1 each to enter with a free bowl of chips and a plate of sandwiches. The pub has a great atmosphere and we eat in the pub on the evening. I had home made steak pie with yorkshire puddings to start. The bedrooms are modern and very clean with tea msking facilities in the bedroom. Good selection of beers in the pub. This pub has so much history and even the queen has bern for lunch. The breakfast was excellent, staff are so lovely, polite. We are already looking to go vack. Cloughton is quiet place and just down the road at Seamer is a local chippy. We really enjoyed our stay, nice and quiet for us, great bus links, great food, great staff. What more can i say. A pub steeped in history. Thank you.

Handy for Scarborough/Filey/Whitby

Weekend break. This seemed the perfect location from all three main destinations + no issues or hassle with parking.
Service was excellent, from bar to breakfast.
Don't eat here apart from breakfast which was better than most. Really nice!
Room a little dated, but clean and perfect for what we needed it for.

Very lovely pub, lots of character and charm, great welcoming staff, easy parking , good breakfast. Issue's was a bit noisy in room 3 in the morning ( cleaning, staff, emptying bottles ) and the saniflow system in the bathroom gets annoying after a while. Stayed for 3 nts and over all very good.

Liked property in general and had superior room spoiled by antiquated shower which was very difficult to control.
Food at dinner was excellent but breakfast spoiled by unavailability of marmalade, a basic requirement for such a meal, although i assume this was an oversight in stocking and not a common occurrence

OK

It was OK. Easy to access, plenty of parking, a warm welcome in the pub. Road noise in the bedroom could be a problem for some. Breakfast was of good standard

3 night stay

We stayed for 3 nights in room 9 which is a ground floor room at the rear of the property, next to the car park. The room consisted of a lobby area with a bathroom and bedroom off the lobby. The room was very comfortable, clean and tidy and met our needs as my husband has mobility problems and cannot manage stairs. We booked bed and breakfast but also dined in every evening. The food was outstanding and the staff are friendly, helpful and efficient. The inside of the inn is very characteristic and well presented. There are bus stops close by with a service to both Whitby and Scarborough every 30 minutes which meant we didn’t have to use the car. Found this by chance but would definitely stay again.

A hidden gem

This is such a lovely little find. A great village pub with character. Close to the coast for the Cleveland Way or the Cinder Track cycle way. Close to Scarborough, Ravenscar and Whitby. The North Yorkshire Moors national park is right on the doorstep so the perfect spot if you want to spend time hiking, cycling or exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire. The staff are superb and cant do enough for you. The rooms are spotless and comfortable. We have stayed before and will be back.

The food was excellent especially the full English breakfast, superb. Our room ( 11 ) was poor, cramped, with only room for a 4’ 6” bed of poor quality. It had old fashioned furniture and very little floor area. It had long standing cobwebs above eye level.

A great short break of 3 nights at the Blacksmiths Arms. Spotlessly clean rooms, excellent food and friendly staff, which can't be said for all accommodation.
The only small negative was the road noise at night but if your room is at the back of the building it should be fine. However, this didn't spoil our stay. Hopefully, we will visit again.

Stayed in room 8 which was not in the main house but in a building behind next to the car park. The room was small but clean with comfortable beds. The wifi was very poor. We couldn't connect to our room wifi so the landlord gave us the password for the room next door. This cut out every evening which was frustrating. Breakfast was a choice of full English, cereals and yogurt with tea/coffee/juice.
