There are a number of beaches for you to choose from. The popular South Bay is a sun trap and close to the hustle and bustle of the town centre. North Bay has been accredited with Blue Flag status meaning it’s one of the best beaches in Europe! Cayton Bay is the quietest of the three and boasts a sweeping bay with a rural feel. Lastly Cornelian Bay is the remotest and hardest to get to but it’s a hidden gem and often empty. Ideal for all weathers, there are lots of indoor attractions in Scarborough for the whole family. Head to Sea Life Sanctuary to see seals, penguins, sharks, turtles and more or Scarborough Castle to explore its 3000 year history. If it’s outdoor fun you’re looking for, The Open Air Theatre is a short minute walk from the apartment where you can see amazing bands, singers and comedians. There is also the Sky Trail Adventure and Peasholm Park nearby. We would be very grateful if you would use the table mats provided to protect the furniture.

The house was situated in a beautiful location. The views the accessibility on foot was second to none. The bed in the second bedroom was very hard and every spring could be felt. due to this the sleep wasn’t great, and we ached a lot in the morning, maybe a new mattress or topper would be a suggestion. The house was very unclean, bodily hairs in the bathroom, pink scum/mould in the shower, everywhere (tiles, shower tray & screen). The floors were sticky and full of dust and cobwebs and The carpets were very frayed in the doorways and due to the jute material, there was thick dust in the pattern. The dust and dirt was thick on the skirting boards where you need to plug chargers etc in. Lots of drinks had been spilt up the walls. The house needs some TLC. Also no outdoor bins so we could not dispose of our rubbish and had to leave it in the kitchen bin. However, the location was suburb, the views and balconies were lovely & watching the storms out at sea was a highlight.

House was lovely just needed a bit of extra tlc as found hairs in bathrooms and lots of cobwebs about. Host said they would clean it but I did it myself as no one would use bathrooms. No freezer either what was a disappointment. The views were so nice from the balconies. Not Good for people with mobility issues. And u cant park outside property I had to park by the cliffs near the fair as its free in winter. Rooms very cosy just couldn't get heating on in single bed room. Overall good stay but would have been much better if the cleaning had been more through and a freezer. But love scarborough so will defo be visiting again

8 Castle Terrace is a perfect old town Scarborough address - the view is breathtaking and everything is a short walk away. Be warned Scarborough is a hilly town so there are lots of steps and stairs. The house was cosy and warm and surprisingly spacious. Will definitely be back!
