The Postgate Country Inn
About
The Postgate Country Inn welcomes guests to a charming 19th‑century country inn that seamlessly blends historic charm with contemporary comfort. Nestled in the heart of the North Yorkshire Moors, just 20 minutes from the bustling coastal town of Whitby, the inn offers three en‑suite rooms that embody the quintessential North Yorkshire aesthetic. Each room boasts a queen‑size bed, flat‑screen TV, and a cheerful Yorkshire breakfast that’s served fresh every morning. On the dining side, the on‑site restaurant serves a rotating menu of locally sourced fish, game, and seasonal produce, with a special three‑course dinner deal for mid‑week stays. Guests will appreciate the welcoming beer garden where they can relax amid moorland scenery, and the dog‑friendly policy that lets their four‑legged companions join in on the fun. Whether you’re a family on the coast‑to‑coast walk, a couple yearning for a romantic retreat, or a solo traveler eager to explore the moors, the Postgate’s warm hospitality and picturesque setting make it a memorable visit. In addition to standard B&B accommodations, the inn offers special occasions’ catering for weddings, birthdays and holiday feasts, and its historic heritage—featured in the TV series Heartbeat—adds a layer of cultural intrigue for fans. Overall, the Postgate Country Inn is a blend of tradition, comfort, and a genuine love for the natural beauty that surrounds it.
