Wellness-led retreat between the Moors and the North Sea

Accommodations

Saltmoore offers two distinct places to stay: Saltmoore House features spacious rooms and The Sanctuary at Saltmoore spa, while The Beach House provides a relaxed, coastal feel with family and dog-friendly rooms. Each room at Saltmoore House includes calming interiors, plush beds, and thoughtful touches to help guests unwind. The Beach House rooms are located approximately 300 yards along the drive from Saltmoore House, a leisurely five-minute stroll between buildings.

Dining

Guests can enjoy seasonal menus across three restaurants, from refined Brasserie dishes to handcrafted sourdough pizzas available at the pizzeria. The Brasserie focuses on local and seasonal ingredients, offering a changing menu that reflects the coastal surroundings. A wellness cafe within the spa serves lighter options, including smoothies and poke bowls, though ingredient availability can vary.

Wellness & Spa

The Sanctuary at Saltmoore spa provides thermal experiences including a pool, sauna, steam room, and cold plunge, with spa access charged at £45 per person for a two-hour session. A state-of-the-art gym is available, and the spa offers a range of treatments such as massages, facials, and body therapies. Guests can pre-book loungers for two-hour slots to ensure a place to relax, while children's splash times are daily from 7:00-9:00am and 5:00-6:00pm.

Location & Activities

Saltmoore sits between the Moors and the North Sea, with Sandsend Beach and the historic town of Whitby just moments away. Nearby attractions include the North York Moors National Park, Whitby Museum, and Whitby Lighthouse, offering hiking, cycling, and coastal walks. The hotel grounds feature a garden, sun terrace, and outdoor furniture, providing spaces for guests to enjoy the surrounding natural scenery.

Family & Pet-Friendly Policies

The Beach House includes a mix of family-friendly and dog-friendly rooms, with a pet fee of £25 per pet per night applying for dog stays. Families can use the indoor heated pool during designated children's splash times, and board games and puzzles are available in the bar area. Not all rooms are dog-friendly, so guests must check availability before booking, and the hotel provides pet baskets and bowls upon request.

Service shines through, with staff consistently attentive and genuinely helpful, even extending to a charming golf buggy shuttle. The grounds offer serene spots to explore, and the proximity to the beach adds a distinct coastal charm.”
