Nice
Really nice place let down by a desperate need to upgrade the decor and fix the plumbing. Whilst we couldn't fault the cleanliness, the water pressure in the shower was little more than a trickle. The decor is very dated. Our room overlooked a surprisingly busy main road which was noisy when the windows were open (a must in the heat, the room was very hot). The pub itself is lovely and a great base for getting around.

Excellent place to stay.
A traditional pub with rooms-fabulous food,all the staff are really friendly and welcoming. The room was a decent size with a small but adequate bathroom. Furnished in keeping with the age and style of an old pub but all very clean. My only suggestion for improvement would be to have a larger and more comfortable bed. Breakfast cooked to order which was delicious. Free parking. Bus stop outside to go to either Whitby or Scarborough for £2! Cheaper than town centre parking. The B & B rate is great value for money. I would have no hesitation in returning or recommending.

Disliked: Amenities
Room was cold, wardrobe door didn’t close, one waitress was unco-operative when I requested cheese and biscuits instead of dessert then later served them to the next table. When my husband quietly questioned her about this in the bar when paying the bill, she denied knowing anything about it. We stayed there before COVID for several days and enjoyed our visit but now would neither return nor recommend it to others The food was good and breakfast staff excellent. Pity about the evening!

Fantastic overnight stay at Blacksmiths Arms Inn. Large car park , lovely bar and dining area and superb staff. Was made to feel at home from the minute we arrived until we checked out. Room was of good quality and the food at dinner and breakfast was great. All staff were chatty as were the locals in the bar area. Definitely will stay again if in the area in future.

The Blacksmith Arms Inn is a beautiful estate with so much history and character. The owners and staff were all very friendly ready to share stories from long ago including hosting a luncheon for Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip just 10 years ago. Fascinating conversations! The only con is exiting the grounds. The building is located on a curve and the street is boarded by tall shrubs. During the day it can be very dangerous exiting the parking lot. At night at least you on coming headlights. Be careful!

What a gem of a find and without hesitation would return. The bus stop is literally just outside around the corner where we got the bus to Scarborough for £2 esch way. We did the pub quiz on the Wednesday night for a good cause at only £1 each to enter with a free bowl of chips and a plate of sandwiches. The pub has a great atmosphere and we eat in the pub on the evening. I had home made steak pie with yorkshire puddings to start. The bedrooms are modern and very clean with tea msking facilities in the bedroom. Good selection of beers in the pub. This pub has so much history and even the queen has bern for lunch. The breakfast was excellent, staff are so lovely, polite. We are already looking to go vack. Cloughton is quiet place and just down the road at Seamer is a local chippy. We really enjoyed our stay, nice and quiet for us, great bus links, great food, great staff. What more can i say. A pub steeped in history. Thank you.

Handy for Scarborough/Filey/Whitby
Weekend break. This seemed the perfect location from all three main destinations + no issues or hassle with parking. Service was excellent, from bar to breakfast. Don't eat here apart from breakfast which was better than most. Really nice! Room a little dated, but clean and perfect for what we needed it for.
