About Fernleigh

Mount Pleasant South sits above Whitby's old streets, close enough to the harbour and the abbey that a stay at Fernleigh means little need for a car once you've parked it. The B&B looks out over garden and sea views, giving rooms a genuine sense of the coastline rather than just a town backdrop.

Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms and drinks provided, and breakfast is included to set guests up for a day exploring. Free WiFi and 24 hour reception mean the place runs smoothly whatever time you arrive or head out, and parking is available on site, useful in a town where space can be tight.

Whitby Abbey is within easy reach, and the surrounding area suits walkers and cyclists as much as those after a pub lunch or a fish supper. Pubs, restaurants and eateries are all close by, along with fishing spots and entertainment for those staying more than a night or two.

I cannot fault this place. We had an absolutely lovely time here. Chris and Jane are wonderful hosts, they have a beautiful house which is spotlessly clean. Breakfast is fantastic, loads of choice and excellent quality. There are lots of lovely touches, like The homemade brownies in your room along with a good selection of teas, coffee and hot chocolate. Fresh milk can be collected from the fridge in the dining room. Great showers with lovely toiletries. I would definitely recommend this B&B and if we were to return to Robin Hood's Bay I would not even look at going anywhere else! 10/10 *****

My stay here was so wonderful! Chris and Jane were so kind and welcoming. The house itself was very clean and charming. Our room was so clean, we didn't believe it. After staying in some not clean hotels, this was such a retreat! Breakfast was very thoughtful and delicious. I would stay again!

We stayed here for 2 nights. It is a lovely house and in a great location. You have the Coastal Path on the door step and a Cinder track which runs Scarborough to Whitby. The rooms were so clean and breakfast was wonderful. Lovely hosts and lovely B&B.

Wonderful home-made bread and brownies - such a treat! All the breakfast food were locally sourced and of high quality, and very fresh. The couple who run the BnB are helpful, friendly, welcoming, and interesting to talk to. Jane’s Christmas tree is as stunning as her baking.
