Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Cober Hill enjoys a fantastic location within extensive, well-kept grounds that offer pleasant walks, including a short walk to the cliff tops and the Cleveland Way, with sea views available. Many guests appreciate the spacious rooms and find the absence of a TV conducive to a relaxing, peaceful stay, although some have noted the decor could use updating. Breakfast offers a decent variety, including appreciated vegetarian sausages, and it's also worth noting the hotel's proximity to both Scarborough and Whitby, making it a great base for exploring the area.

Acceptable stay with some letdowns

breakfast disappointment
The breakfast was disappointing. I specifically asked if breakfast was AT 8.30 or FROM 8.30. We arrived at 8.50 to find hardly any food left. The staff were less than understanding over our plight.
