Great location for all amenities. Ideal for space, but also safe for children to be integrated . Ownerâs are non intrusive leaving you to enjoy your holiday with a much appreciated welcome pack ( coffee would be nice! ) , but on hand to assist if needed- just a phone call away. So fresh & clean as we entered the property. Everything you need. Ownerâs priority is for you to have a stress free holiday with no rules on how to leave on your final morning. Communication before arrival meant our beds were set up as we wished. Highly recommend & wish to return.

Everything we needed and just a few yards from the harbour and beach! The owners could not have been more helpful.

We have been to Scarborough many many times before, but this was the best accommodation overall that we have been in. It could hardly have been closer to the harbour and could not have been more welcoming, comfortable or better presented. Lots of space and a great feeling of light and airiness. There was car parking on site (a bit of a squeeze for a seven-seater, but do-able). Wi-fi worked (not always the case everywhere) and was fast. We were there over Easter and had a look to see if there were still any summer dates available (sadly, but not surprisingly, there were none). A credit to owner Yvonne.
