A four star Georgian country house B&B. Set in the North York Moors National Park with panoramic countryside and sea views. Peaceful base to explore the area.

Smugglers Rock is a Georgian Country House built in 1840 as a coaching inn and is now an eight all en-suite bedroom guesthouse, renovated to a very high standard. The house still retains a tiny window in its east wall where smugglers would watch out for the constabulary and shine a light for fellow smugglers as a signal to bring up the contraband! Guests have the use of a spacious open-beamed lounge and an 'olde-worlde' breakfast room, both with wonderful long distance coastal and countryside views. Smugglers Rock is ideally located in Ravenscar (at the southern end of Robin Hoods' Bay) and we have on our doorstep: wonderful walks on the Cleveland Way and old railway line and several cycle paths, and as we are situated halfway between Scarborough and Whitby (10 & 12) miles we are perfectly located for exploring the area.
