Chiltern Guesthouse

Just got back from a great holiday in Whitby.
we stayed at the Chiltern Guesthouse it was fantastic the room and house was very clean and breakfast was spot on.
the owners Jools and John were very nice I can see why she is called Jools she was a Dimond full of useful local information were to eat and drink. deffently go back again 10 out of 10 for us Mr and Mrs Earley

Just arrived home after two nights B&B at the Chiltern. We were only going for the one night but ended up stopping for two !!
Highly recommend to all visitors and Tourist both from the Uk and abroad..you will not be disappointed.
The Guest house stands out on the road very good kerb appeal and just looks ` loved` the inside is amazing very clean welcoming all the little details the owners have thought about..Our room was spacious with lots of storage it was warm and we didnt hear any noise from the neighbours.
The breakfast was second to none and we cleared our plates and didnt eat again until tea time wholesome,tradional english breakfast including black pud and mushrooms endless toast cereals fruit etc.
Jools and John are very friendly and accommodating nothing was too much trouble.
We soon found parking near to the guest house, and very reasonable at £30 per person per night.
We would definitely recommend The Chiltern ( it was recommended to us first)
We could not find one fault
Thank you Chiltern you will definitely see us again.

I cannot rate the Chiltern highly enough, we only popped over to Whitby from York for the night but Jools and John made us feel so welcome that we will be going back again for a longer stay.
The en-suite room was homely, excellently appointed and clean with a very comfortable bed. Breakfast was typically Yorkshire which meant that we never had need for anything else until 4pm, but lighter options were available if the full English isn't your thing.
The real gem for us was that we could take our dog with us. Naturally he wasn't allowed to stay in the room unattended but the fact that he could stay meant that it became a proper family outing. To say that Jools and John are animal lovers is an understatement, so as previous comments have stated, there is no "Treading on ice" atmosphere, just genuine Yorkshire hospitality at it's best.

Stayed overnight in Feb 2011 in the family room. Huge super kingsize for me and the wife and a single bed for our teenage daughter (not a tiny bunk bed). Very friendly and easy going, beautiful full english, would definitely stay here again.

I searched the internet 7 weeks ago in search of good reasonably priced B&B's in Whitby for myself, my 7 year old daughter and my parents to stay for 2 nights. We just returned yesterday from our stay and we were very impressed with the Chiltern. Me and my daughter had a very spacious room with a kingsize bed with an equally spacious en-suite that housed a modern corner shower. We had plenty wardrobe space and a colour tv.
My parents had a double room that was spacious that also had an en-suite, however they weren't too impressed with the en-suite as it was very small.
Breakfasts were very good and they were served in a bright, airy, clean dining room. Dietery needs are catered for too.
Booking in was easy and the owners were very informative about local attractions and shops and there are plenty of leaflets on display that have maps in them.
The only downside was the parking as it is very difficult to park outside the guest house. However, you can double park as the road is very wide so unloading and loading isnt difficult to do and parking spaces do become available after 5pm.
The Chiltern is 2 minutes from the beach, 2 minutes from the shops and there are plenty of places to eat.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we booked a full week there for next year before we came away yesterday. Thank you for a very pleasant stay Chiltern, see you next year.
