Loved our stay at Bats and Broomsticks, very quirky place and very friendly owner who always made time to have a chat. Loved the decor and the attention to detail throughout the building. Really enjoyed the candle lit breakfast, other guests also really friendly and had some good banter - ended up staying in the breakfast room well over an hour both days. Was also great to have a more interesting/entertaining range of background music to eat to! Felt at home right away, felt more like staying with friends than in a B&B, and we would love to stay again.
United KingdomLocation, the rooms, the hotel decor, the breakfast and especially our host.
United KingdomA lovely little Gothic bed and breakfast, a quirky and friendly host and a tasty breakfast. The decor in the room had so much attention to detail, perfect for a lover of all things spooky! It captured the modern Gothic Whitby scene perfectly!
