Can't fault the staff/owner for the welcome & attention. Very clean room with new bathroom suite etc. plenty of space in the family room (there were just 2 of us). Breakfast was plentiful & delicious. A great base for anyone wanting to stay near the centre but in a quiet location.

Book direct through the hotel not through the internet as they take an additional 25% off the owners and we should support small businesses in these tough times. We don't go for anything that Scarborough has to offer but go for the relaxing break in a beautiful hotel... More

Wonderful food, spotless and very comfortable indeed. Excellent value for money and great hosts. I loved it. Kathy and Malcolm will make you very welcome. You may need to diet when you return home but it will have been worth it.
