There is plenty of space and rooms in the bar / dining area. A magnificent outside space with a pond and many tables and chairs, all with a fantastic view of the countryside. The room was spacious and spotless. There is a park and ride to Whitby and a garden centre within a short walk and Sneaton Castle not much further. Minor negatives, road not too far away, so some traffic noise in parts of the building, although not much, and finally not the most exciting food menu, although what was served was good.
