This is the second time me and my wife have stayed at the Riftswood with our friends Anne and Kenny. The hospitality we received from Peter & Paula and Denzil the dog was simply first class from the moment we walked through the door until we left .Nothing is to much trouble, even when they recommended a restaurant outside of...

My partner and I stayed here over the weekend and over my birthday and couldnt have asked for better serv or friendlier hosts. The owners Pete and Paula went above and beyond to make our stay memorable and to make us feel at home. The breakfasts were so fresh and made to order. A range of things to suit every... More

We stayed for 3 nights and had a great time. In many ways it would be hard to find anything to add to what other reviews have already said! It really is quite simply a great place to stay. Our room was spacious, comfortable and well cared for. The place is 2 minutes walk from the promenade and parking on... More

My family and I stayed at Riftswood in November and we are already planning our next stay. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

To those who are not pet lovers, don’t worry, Peter and Paula are more... More

The welcome was wonderful (including fruit cake and wine) and we were delighted to spend some time with charismatic Denzel the dog. Peter and Paula could not do enough for us and it felt like staying with friends. The room was cozy and the bed perfect.... More

My family and I have just returned from a brilliant weekend break at Riftswood in Whitby. What a great time we have had. Peter and Paula are brilliant hosts and make you feel very welcome. The rooms are clean, warm and cozy with little exras that you don't normally find in B&Bs. The breakfasts are out of this world with... More

My wife and I booked a two night stay at Riftswood, Whitby via another travel based website. The reviews we read were (with the odd exception) consistent, complimentary and contented, and the hotel features in the ‘Top Ten’ of places to stay in Whitby, so we thought we would give it a go; a good decision...... We telephoned prior to... More
