About The Flask Inn

A bar and restaurant sit at the heart of The Flask Inn, along with breakfast and room service for guests who'd rather not stray far after a day on the coast. There's also a garden, picnic area and outdoor seating for warmer evenings, though it's worth knowing that food at the on-site restaurant isn't always guaranteed to be available, so it pays to check ahead.

The rooms themselves have been recently refurbished and are consistently described as spacious and spotless, with comfortable beds and well-stocked tea and coffee trays. Family rooms and en-suite bathrooms are available, and free WiFi runs throughout. Staff are noted for being friendly and helpful, adding to the inn's welcoming, traditional character.

The Flask Inn stands on Blacksmiths Hill in Robin Hood's Bay, with free on-site parking and convenient bus routes for exploring the wider area. Walking and cycling country lies close by, along with fishing and watersports, and the North York Moors National Park is within easy reach for a day out beyond the coast.

We stayed at the Flask Inn for a wedding we were going to near by. Would thoroughly recommend staying here. The landlords Jimmy and Nicola are so friendly and welcoming, they are great hosts! The rooms are lovely and spacious with wardrobes to hang clothes. The bed is really comfy too 👍 If you go into the pub, everyone is so friendly and the atmosphere is great. It's also recently been beautifully renovated. The location is really good for Whitby, Robin Hoods Bay and Scarborough as the pub is right on the bus route with a stop just outside. Had a great couple of nights stay recently and would definitely return in the future. Thanks very much to Jimmy and Nicola for their hospitality!
