Jonathan & Louise and everything at Highgate House were amazing! The house is beautiful! The hosts are polite, friendly and helpful. We absolutely LOVED the house, the room, the location, the cleanliness, the quietness, the breakfast and hospitality. The room was so pretty, the shower after a LOT of walking around Whitby was perfection (I am a water pressure snob, and I like it hot)! The bed was so comfortable and cozy and I slept…

This beautiful Georgian house has been cared for and comfortably decorated by the hosts, who have very good taste. The property is situated within easy walking distance to Whitby, so a good base to explore from. Breakfast of fruit juice, coffee/tea, fresh fruit, bacon sandwiches, toast and pastries is served in your room each morning, which is a fantastic and relaxing way to start your day. We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay and the…

We visited Highgate Hotel to celebrate my 21st birthday which made it a birthday I’ll never forget. We stayed in the lovely Spring room which was so beautifully decorated. We was greeted with champagne which I think was such a lovely touch! As the house is a Bed and Breakfast we was woken up both mornings to a breakfast platter which I only can describe as brilliant. With a selection from bacon cobs, croissants, crumpets,…

Absolutely fantastic! We stayed here recently for a few days in July. We would not hesitate to recommend. Louise and Jonathan were lovely, very thoughtful hosts who really try to understand their guest’s needs and accommodate accordingly. Breakfasts served in the room are fresh, plentiful and delicious, taking account of any dietary requirements. The location of the property is central to Whitby and paid public parking is very convenient directly behind the property, although they…

My wife and I had a super comfortable stay at this lovely historic house. The accommodation was luxurious: a living/reception room, a bedroom and a bathroom; all of these very spacious and all beautifully furnished in keeping with the history of the place. Breakfast was sumptuous, and Graham was most obliging and accommodating. We would not hesitate to go back or recommend this to others. The house itself is within a stone’s throw of antique…

What a beautiful guesthouse! From the minute we got there, till the minute we left we were looked after superbly by Jonathon and Louise . The room/house was impeccable, from the design and styling, to the spotless cleanliness, and the array of little extras like teas, coffees, biscuits and real milk (not UHT). Breakfast was another highlight, a huge tray of either bacon barm (sausage offered for a change), fruit or yoghurt ‘smoothie’, and pastries/toasts,…

The location of Highgate House was perfect. Very close to the centre of Whitby in an elegant terrace. We received a very warm welcome and help with information to make our stay memorable. The bedroom was large comfortable and spotless. The breakfasts delicious and generous. The area was quiet at night. Whitby and the rest of North Yorkshire is beautiful.

Had an excellent stay at Highgate House. Jonathan and Louise were perfect hosts. The room was beautiful and very comfy. The breakfasts were delicious. Excellent location. Would definately stay again.
