Booked a superior double room. Very comfortable king sized bed. Room and premises very clean. We arrived over 3 hours early, happy to let us have room early. Had a delicious full English breakfast each morning. Looked after us very well, gave very helpful local information. Will for sure return.

Scarborough Overnight Stay
I had a one night stay here in a twin room and it was fantastic. The location was ideal and everything was clean and tidy. Our room was ready when we arrived around 12 so we checked in and then went off to explore Scarborough. The full English cooked set is up for the day too. All in all a great B&B which is highly recommended.

This was a nice hotel and the staff was great! They had a free hot breakfast and offered to make us a take away one but we had to leave too early. The stairs were wide, the room nice and we enjoyed our stay. Drove passed it the first time. Keep your eyes peeled.

Well recommend
Lovely place with easy walking distance to the sea front and the town.
The room was comfortable and perfect for our one night stay.
We had a really nice breakfast before leaving to set us off on our way.
Very helpful advice as well about the parking as the disc zone starts almost outside and there are plenty of discs in reception.
