The Inn on the Moor Hotel

The Inn on the Moor is the friendliest of hotels nestled in the scenic village of Goathland. Often described as a hidden gem, The Inn on the Moor Hotel will greet you with the very warmest of welcomes the moment you step foot through the door.

Estbek House

Price: Very Expensive

Situated in Sandsend, one of the most picturesque villages and a true hidden gem of the Yorkshire coast, Estbek house is an award winning and critically acclaimed restaurant with rooms. Estbek - often misspelt as ‘Estbeck’ or ‘Eskbeck’ - is a Georgian property, built circa 1750 and previously housing the Alum mining office. We aim to emphasise this incomparable charm of the historic building, with a tasteful touch of modern luxury throughout.

The White Horse & Griffin

The White Horse & Griffin has developed a reputation for great food served in a relaxed and unfussy style, using locally sourced ingredients. With an emphasis on fresh seafood, we pride ourselves on great service and value for money. Built in 1681 and with a history you can almost taste, you can dine in the very room where Captain Cook and William Scoresby used to raise and fix their crews!
The upstairs restaurant offers private dining and is ideal for special occasions such as weddings, birthdays, anniversaries or just getting groups of friends together.
Downstairs, our busy ‘bistro style’ restaurant serves many British classics in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.

A lovely place with amazing food and excellent service. Lovely table, with stunning views. We had the fruit de mer everything was so fresh and delicious. If I'm being super picky we were unable to have the chips as they're cooked in beef dripping and there was a vegetarian in the party, having said that the new potatoes were to die for!! Would definitely recommend eating here!!!

We spent 3.5 hours there. Lovely ambience from start to finish. Head waiter/joint owner has a lovely way about him. The food and wine were excellent. Just a great evening - and good value bearing in mind the courses we had and the time we spent there.
