Ellerby Country Inn

Had a great couple of days at the Ellerby Inn. We were a group of 13 and nothing was too much trouble from start to finish! Staff were so attentive and friendly. The rooms and food offerings both at breakfast and dinner were excellent. The location of this traditional inn was perfect for Whitby and the surrounding area. Bus stops in both directions were just outside the inn meaning you did not need to rely on you car to see the area. The Ellerby Inn is highly recommended for the perfect break away.

As always we had a wonderful stay for our Anniversary, spotless clean room and the food to die for. Andy Kerry Abby and all the staff make you feel so at home. Its our go to place when ever we can get away. The location is perfect for us to get away from the bustle of Whitby.

We had a gorgeous meal on 16/02/25. I took my family who were visiting from Ireland. The food was amazing, really good quality and very generous portions. The staff were so lovely and friendly. We were very impressed by the whole experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone in the area. Thank you for a stunning meal x

We wanted somewhere for a two night break, and as we love the East Coast The Ellerby seemed a good place to choose. We were in room 8 on the first floor, which was warm and cosy with a spotlessly clean bathroom complete with bath. A big plus for us was that the bus stop is right outside, with a half hourly service into Whitby in one direction (20 min journey) and to Saltburn (40 min journey) and beyond in the other direction. We used the bus on two days, and these ran to time very well. We are in the inn both evenings. (We were offered a table in the restaurant but preferred to sit in the bar area). The food is very good indeed, with generously sized portions, which meant we had no room for a dessert! The steak pie was amazing! All the staff we encountered during our stay were friendly and pleasant and we wouldn't hesitate to return.

Sue and I have stayed at the Ellerby on numerous occasions over the years so it was no surprise to find the room and food to be excellent. Service was also excellent up to a point. After our meal we went to sit in the conservatory and at 9.30pm I went to get fresh drinks only to find the Bar/restaurant in darkness and the doors locked. Talking with staff next morning it transpires they'd been open late the previous night with a large group of guests but as there weren't so many guests on our night Wednesday 11th December they decided to close early without the courtesy of letting us know, put a dampener on the whole evening.

We visited Ellerby Country Inn during our stay at Whitby. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff so friendly and helpful. We both had the steak pie which was delicious. This was a really lovely experience! We can't recommend it enough. A really friendly place.
