Cober Hill, which can be found just off the main Scarborough-Whitby road in a village called…read moreCloughton, is predominantly run as a conference venue, although it also doubles as a guest house. Its location is superb - right on the cliff top, with views over the coast to Scarborough and up to Robin Hoods Bay. Its an old manor house, and the interior reflects an olde worlde theme, and is tastefully decorated, if a little tired and old fashioned, on the inside. The conference facilities are ok - if you're used to the big hotels and the professionalism they offer, then you may be a little disappointed. The staff look after you, but its not quite the same as you may be used to if you regularly use inner city places for business. Cober Hill has at least, finally gone up to date and begun to provide wifi faciliies. They can accomodate up to 100 delegates in the main hall, and up to 50 in the largest conference room. If you're visiting individually, then its a good place to stay and use as a base to explore the North York Moors and surrounding area. Rooms are comfortable (if again, a little tired) and the breakfasts are very nice. Tariffs, especially for non conference travellers, are actually very reasonable - less than half what you'd pay at Raven Hall, five miles up the road. Recommended with a few reservations.

The room hire rates and lunches were all very reasonable, food good too. However the daily conference rate prices are pushed up by the price of hot drinks throughout the day. Had I not now got my own venue just up the road I would still be happy to use Cober, I will continue to recommend for students accomodation for those who don't miss a tv in the bedroom.

It's not luxury and doesn't pretend to be but it has many of the amenities and perks that you're familiar with like coffee/tea in the room and housekeeping. There is a bar and restaurant right downstairs which is really nice and convenient. The food was actually the best I had in town. The location is ideal for the Herriot museum and Thirsk attractions. I booked through my tour company and when we arrived here, there was an issue with my reservation (it could not be found). We don't know why or how it happened but they arranged 3 nights stay anyway (I had booked 6 nights). Other than that, the service was friendly and my stay was comfortable so I would happily return.

I travel extensively in business...so I spend much time in quite a number of hotels, some big and…read morefancy, while others only to lay my head on a pillow and then I'm off. This establishment is housed in a 200-year old building...expect that the floors slope, stairs are steep and narrow, so watch your step. I spent two nights here. My room was small but adequate...perhaps 120 sq-ft. Furniture shows it age but functional. The bed and blankets were perfect...I have slept well. Heating is through a steam register...very efficient until the hotel turns off the boilers in the evening...my room was an ice box...!!! The bathroom is roomy and comfortable. The fixtures could use some routine maintenance or replacement. The shower failed to work, forcing me to shower...eh, bath/wash in the tub. Now I realize that many people love tubs, and I have enjoyed soaking in a few on occasion myself...but lets face it, they are not efficient for washing. There is a real nice pub downstairs...I enjoyed a pint of the local finest, black sheep. After dinner, enjoy a whiskey night cap. My meals were in the downstairs restaurant...a warm and inviting area, plenty of table seating. Breakfast either is continental (pastry, cereal, etc) or a hot cooked meal (ham/bacon/sausage, fried/scrambled eggs, toast,etc). My morning meals were excellent. At dinner time I suggest a table reservation, and when my meal was close to being ready, the server came and got me in the pub...excellent...!!! Dinner was prepared and plated well...tasty, very enjoyable. I recommend the roasted pork belly...very delightful. This is a very nice hotel, and I would stay here again. My only suggestions for improvement would be consider the need for warmth in the winter and don't turn off the boilers at night...it was early February, this is WINTER and it is COLD...and c'mon, fix the shower. There is WiFi...efficient (strong signal and quick speed) when you are downstairs in the pub, but a very poor signal in the room...whats up with that?

The whole atmosphere of the hotel was impressive; it gave the impression of being a well-run, warm and welcoming family hotel. The food was superb; very tasty and flavoursome, and well-presented too. It's a great pity that circumstances since have prevented us from having Christmas lunch there again, but if you get the opportunity to eat there at Christmas or at any other time, my advice would be to take it: I don't think you'll be disappointed.

The staff is very nice and quite friendly. Have not yet had breakfast but I will say the garlic mushrooms appetizer was amazing. The fried scampi and chips was quite good. I sampled the fish and chips and it was great. There was more fish than most places so you can rest assured it's not pure batter. Should I find my way back here I'd definitely stay here. Highly recommend. Edit: WiFi is VERY spotty so I should deduct for that but wont

Coz this yapping little poxy dog sitting at the table near by. Why they need to bring dogs to eat I have no idea but this one was a pain in the ass.
