The staff are lovely and the area around the pub is great. We like the set up with only 4 huts and it feels safe. The downside are the beds. They were really uncomfortable and the sofa bed had wood going across the middle and was hard. We ended up all 3 sharing a bed which was tight plus this bed had a very basic mattress. A side light or nightlight would be beneficial. Would also benefit from more toilets and an extra shower as all 4 cabins sharing is a lot. We ate in the pub and the staff are always lovely and the food was good. Breakfast was a highlight. We like the garden area too.

Disappointing Shepherd Hut accommodation. It could be so good but even the small investment in bedside lamps in simple bedside tables was missing. One shared toilet and one shared shower between four huts. Old cheap mattresses, scruffy cheap linens and towels, and single coat hook on walls for clothes rounded it off. The breakfast were quite good and staff were helpful and friendly but that’s the only positive I’m afraid. We ate dinner with friends one evening, again food was ok and service helpful and friendly. Just a few improvements would make an enormous difference, but they seem to sell so they presumably hhink it’s good enough. It’s not. Wouldn’t return.

Great family get away

Loved our stay in the shepherds hut. Great family get away in a lovely location. Fun alternative to our usual camping. Lovely facilities, amazing welcoming staff and delicious breakfast. Short drive to all local destinations…wish we had stayed another night!

Lovely place for an overnight or weekend break.

Room in the Windmill was clean and spacious. Bed was very comfortable. Loved being able to have a deep luxurious bath... so relaxing after being out in Whitby and walking most of the day Staff were welcoming and very accommodating. Got asked every morning if we needed anything doing or replacing in the room. Breakfasts and evening meals were amazing, with lots of choice and using locally resourced produce. Need to have a good appetite as portions were more than ample. Sunday lunch was unbelievable. Very popular family friendly pub, but plenty of seating outside to sit and unwind on a summer evening and enjoy the lovely views. Noise from the bar on an evening could be a put off for some but it wasn't an issue for us.

Nothing to like on the whole. Outside property not appealing. Stairs up to room - carpet was dirty. Room decor needed attention. Paint peeling from wall. Curtain tieback hooks fell out of wall. Bathroom clean and new looking. Over bath shower but no shower screen. No toiletries apart from Aldi hand soap. Bed comfortable. Good breakfast.

Food was outstanding people were so nice, the cabins are lovely just small and no places for clothes. Only issue with the cabins are the toilet and showers are not in them, although there are facilities there just not the most suitable.

Unless you like the equivalent of a poor campsite please avoid this place! The pictures make it look like the cabins have a shower and toilet. They do not! You are sharing one cold outside loo and one cold outside shower with 5 other cabins. We visited in winter so not only was it too cold, but there was actually no running water anyway! The cabins are really small, 2 very uncomfortable beds with old bedding, and I no personally felt unsafe behind a door made of MDF! This was expensive when less well equipped than many campsites. We will not be returning! On a positive note the staff were responsive and the breakfast was great!

Overall pleasant stay, presented well and clean. Amazing breakfast with friendly staff. Room was generous size. Our main complaints are the floodlight shining through the window all night with thin curtains, speaker in the ceiling downstairs that hasn’t been soundproofed so there’s fairly loud music playing when trying to sleep and lack of decent shower that’s also nearly impossible to set at a consistent temperature. One minor thing is the plaster crumbling off the wall by the window making it look a bit neglected. Location is quiet and short drive from Whitby centre.
