A lot better than many hotels we have stayed in.Very handy for walking into town or along West Cliff. What more can we say , all the other... More

We stayed for two nights in the Scoresby room at The Leeway and if we're ever back in the area it will be our first choice for a place to stay. We weren't able to arrive for the advertised check in time (before 1.30pm) but when we emailed to let Karen and Garry know we were told that at least... More

This was my first trip to Whitby and we couldn't have picked a better place to stay. A nice walk down the hill to the centre, planty parking nearby, lovely hosts, lovely welcome, nicely decorated rooms (with the bonus of a tassimo!!), wonderful breakfast. Thanks Karen and Garry, you made our stay very enjoyable. No doubt we will see you... More

Had a fantastic time. The Leeway was recommended to us by my sister and husband who stayed there a couple of months ago. We can now see why. Karen and Gary are very friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and Gary was always on hand to give you directions, recommend a restaurant or just to have a chat.... More

Garry and Karen have great talent in making people feel relaxed, you couldn't find a better place to stay, everything is taken care of. They are winners in every way. the property is very handy for the town as well. I only wish all catering people would take a leaf out of Gary and Karen's book. Well done to you... More

The Leeway really is a gem of a place and Gary could not be more helpful and informative. After a long drive we arrived cold and frazzled to be greeted by Gary who helped with the parking and welcomed us with tea and cake. The room was extremely comfortable with so many extra touches like the coffee machine, tasty local... More

A great place to stay convenient location, nice breakfast nicely fitted out bedrooms with comfy bed and nice linen towels etc. A warm welcome from the friendly hosts and the coffee and chocolate cake on arrival was a great touch allowing us to recover from the journey. We stayed in the attic room and found it very comfortable but we... More

We've just got back from a two night stay and for us it was the little things (some unexpected) that made all the difference: The magazines in our room, the pot of sweets, the full size hairdryer, the wine glasses and corkscrew, the Tassimo and top quality local biscuits, the comprehensive local information folder, the umbrellas and shoe cleaning kit...
