A warm weekend in Whitby

Rosslyn House is a very comfortable and spotlessly clean B&B run by a very welcoming and friendly couple. The breakfasts we had were superb and set us up for the day. The only negative we had was with the car parking. We arrived in Whitby on a very hot September day and the town was crammed with visitors. There was hardly a parking space to be found anywhere. An on street parking pass is provided by the proprietors but I had to park on a municipal car park overnight and pay. Luckily I found an on street parking spot not too far from the Rosslyn the next day. The Rosslyn is located close to the promenade at West Cliff and only 10 minutes walk from the town centre.

Fresh bottle of milk and water in the mini-fridge, much better for the coffees, also a very handy bottletop remover/corkscrew ! Steep stairs to our room - room 2 - would go for lower rooms next time. Nice to have jars of decaf and ordinary instant coffee - the hosts have put a lot of thought into the details. When we found the room hot, we were given a fan. On balance, excellent

Exceptional Guest House and Hospitality

Having never visited Whitby before we were guided by the exceptional reviews of Rosslyn House and the hospitality given by Martin and Vanessa. We were not disappointed. Our room, albeit up several flights of stairs, was wonderfully clean, large and well stocked with the added bonus of a small fridge (cold water and milk restocked daily) and the most delicious home made chocolate cake left for us. A lovely touch and much appreciated! Having asked for twin beds we were suitably impressed to being given a large super king bed, with the most comfortable mattress we've slept on. The breakfasts MUST be mentioned as 5 star! My personal favourite was the fresh fruit compote, fruit, greek yogurt and muesli (an absolutely delicious starter - and personally made for me on the second morning when I mentioned an allergy to kiwi fruit, one being brought out just for me). A thoughtful touch! The breakfasts themselves consisted of several choices daily on a board and of course my husbands favourite, the full cooked english. He says, absolutely delicious sausages. The B&B is very close to the town and harbour which offers a terrific selection of excellent shops and restaurants, the latter again recommended by Martin prior to our visit, so that we could pre-book during a very busy season. Much appreciated! Cannot recommend this highly enough and many thanks Martin and Vanessa. We wish we'd had one more day!

Perfect place for the perfect get-away in Whitby

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Rosslyn House - very comfortable room, impressively wide range of tasty and healthy (hot and cold) options for breakfast, friendly hosts who sent us hugely helpful information about the town in advance and also arranged free car parking nearby. The location is just a short walk (downhill) into town, so everything you want to visit in Whitby is quick and easy to access. The Covid precautions are well-explained in advance, well-organised throughout the premises and very reassuring. We had a great weekend!

Having travelled a fair bit and stayed a variety of hotels and bed breakfasts, I am always wary of ratings I see on platforms or their advertising.

As a result this affords me a critical eye when I stay somewhere and I am rarely impressed.
Rosslyn House is one of those rare occasions where I was impressed not only when I checked in but also throughout my stay and even during the pre-arrival proccess.

Once booked we recieved a text message thanking us for our booking and suggesting places to eat/drink at. We also recieved a message nearer the time following up on a request we made for a late check-in.
Then on the day despite checking in out of hours we were greeted by Martin who was polite and very nice.

The room itself was lovely and very big and extremely well presented. It was also full of personal touches like a slice of homemade cake for us both and a small jar of assorted sweets.
The bed was very comfortable and well positioned in the room.

The bathroom although small, did the job and were clean. One thing to note was that the water pressure in the shower was a bit off at key times. However this was likely due to the location of the room in the house and also other rooms using theirs at the same time.

The free parking offered is street parking and comes in the form of a pass to stick in your window. This could be tricky during peak times as you may not be able to find a space near, we were lucky and did.

The breakfast itself is pre-ordered the night before, which

Whitby weekend at the Rosslyn.

My wife and I stayed for two nights for a weekend break. We arrived a little early but it was no problem for Vanessa and Martin who invited us in to drop off our gear etc. The parking permit was ready and completed so the car was parked up for the weekend.
Covid precautions are well illustrated with all the guests as far as we could see gladly adhering to.
Vanessa and Martin were very attentive and the rooms are nicely decorated/furnished and spotlessly clean.
Breakfast was very nice with a wide selection and promptly served.
All in all a lovely stay in a great location close to the centre of Whitby. We will definitely be visiting again although Room 5 is quite a hike up the stairs!

Amazing B&B

Me and my partner recently spent the weekend here and couldn't be happier. Hosts Martin and Vanessa where very friendly, room was spotless, breakfast was cooked to perfection and its in a perfect location with only a 5 minute walk to the sea front. All in all I would highly recommend people stay here as me and my partner will definitely be coming here again in the future.

Lovely hosts and great location

The hotel is in a great location a short walk from the centre of Whitby and the beach. Martin and Vanessa were the perfect hosts and helped with all our requests and recommended some great places to visit. The room was spotless and the bedding really comfy - the mini fridge in the room was a nice touch. Tea and cake on arrival made us feel special and the breakfast menu is extensive and the food was excellent. Would 100% recommend!

First class guest house

Top class guess house, facilities all well maintained very clean and a warm welcome received, slept really well, breakfast was outstanding as was the breakfast room, bright airy and very pleasant.
We travel around the United States, the standard of service there in the hotels we stay in is faultless, good to see this guest house aims and produces the same high standards.well worth paying the extra as they go the extra mile.Thank you, we will tell everyone we no about you.

Lovely B&B!

We have been to Whitby several times and this is the best B&B we have stayed in by far. Martin was lovely and very knowledgeable about Whitby, recommending places to eat. When we arrived he offered us a cuppa, which was a lovely touch. Our room was fab and the bed was really comfortable. Breakfast was made with top ingredients and was nicely made. Martin was a good host, very attentive without being intrusive. The B&B is well situated and only a few minutes walk from the Centre of Whitby.

Hosts, Martin and Vanessa very welcoming and helpful. Room was very clean and comfortable - great bed and pillows - but shower was in bedroom which made it a bit steamy even with fan on. Toilet was ensuite but very cramped. Good quiet location. Would definitely stay again. Very good breakfast.

The owners of this property were kind and very helpful. They served wonderful breakfasts. Close to the pier and activities. Had I been able to get at least a second floor room we would have liked it better. The attic room was fine and bed comfortable, however the stairs up were a bit iffy. Anyway a great stay.

It was a lovely friendly welcome from hosts Martin n Venessa, with a cuppa and cake! The house is beautifully kept in its original stule and spotlessly clean. A very nice breakfast with a great selection with specials boards as well for something different. The room was very comfortable and equipped with all you need, comfy bed was a blessing! We were at the very top of the house, but next time maybe a lower room will be better for us. Personal choice. Overall a very pleasant stay. Thankyou.
