Fantastic hosts, running a superb guest house. So welcoming and friendly and very attentive. Spacious room with everything we needed. The whole place is spotlessly clean. Breakfast was perfect. Well cooked, fresh and delicious. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Thank you for choosing Glenora Guest House for your stay and taking the time to leave such a positive review. We are so pleased you had a pleasurable stay with us. It was lovely to meet you (and we enjoyed our breakfast chats!) and hopefully we will see you again.

Just returned from a 4 night stay at Glenora, a solo trip which was most enjoyable. Julia was a perfect host who prepared a substantial breakfast which sustained me until an evening meal. Would definitely return.

Excellent accommodation
Glenora is conveniently situated about a 15 minute walk from the harbour at Whitby. The owners are really friendly and helpful. Julia made us a pot of coffee upon arrival and gave my wife a box of chocolates as she celebrated her birthday during our stay. Our room was large and well decorated. The hospitality tray was well stocked, including sachets of hot chocolate and yummy biscuits. The bathroom was large. The breakfast was really good and well cooked. We really can’t fault this establishment. Julia and Paul have thought of everything and made our, rather wet, visit to Whitby, very enjoyable.

Excellent B&B
I really enjoyed my stay at Glenora Guest House. The owners were very friendly and made a pot of tea on my arrival. The room and private bathroom were very clean and well equipped. There was a good choice of cereals and fresh fruit at breakfast time as well as a choice of cooked breakfast, which was really nice. The location is handy with just a 10 minute walk down to the centre of Whitby.

Nice break
Looked for our normal hotel to stay in Whitby and found it unavailable so found this guest house instead. Great room and breakfast was really good. The room was a good size and everything clean. Was welcomed with a coffee on arrival which was after the normal booking in time but not a problem after a quick phonecall. Will definitely be paying another visit.
