“The house provided us with a great base from which we could travel around the Yorkshire coast over our week there.”

With six adults, a baby and a dog we needed a sizeable house and this fit the bill. Great communication with the owners both before and during our stay. Should we holiday in the area again then we'd have no hesitation in booking this house again.

“Fantastic, spacious and cosy holiday home.”

The owners have beautifully furnished the property and is a relaxing place to come back to when returning from days out in and around Scarborough. Plenty of places to visit only a short drive away. Situated not far from the beach (15 minute walk) with a local shop just across the road. Bigger supermarkets just a short drive away (Tesco 5 minute drive). Would definitely recommend this holiday home having everything you could ever wish for. Thanks again to our hosts for a fabulous holiday.

“We had a wonderful time at 5 Westwood Road.”

The property was exactly as described and there was plenty of space for our party of 4 adults, a three year old and a baby. The host was very thoughtful, leaving out a high chair and a couple of bath toys for the children, as well as a few soft drinks and plenty of biscuits! Dishwasher tablets were also provided. The garden was a delight. Our 3 year old grandson spent most of his time there - the weather was great - when we were not at the beach. An excellent location for introducing a three year to the British seaside. Morrisons Local literally a minute away and then Scarborough has other much bigger supermarkets very close to the house. It is easy to walk into town and to the beach - Valley Road way makes for a more gentle climb back. We didn’t use the car at all and would certainly like to return whatever the weather/time of year as there is plenty to keep different family members occupied. Location of house means getting in and out of Scarborough relatively painless. Hosts were available and always responded to any text messages etc. very quickly. Thank you, Marie.

“July 2024 House was lovely with everything you would need.”

Owner contacted us before departure to give us all instructions on arrival with lock box and WiFi codes. House so clean and excellent amenities. Only thing missing was a washing machine and tumble dryer but minor thing. Shame about the weather as decking and garden seating were fabulous. Excellent accommodation. Would certainly return to this property.

“Gorgeous house in a really convenient location.”

Supermarket on the same road and a short walk to the beach front. The house is lovely and has everything you need, the one and only thing missing that would make a huge difference is a washing machine. It did say in the listing that there was a washing machine and this was one of our requirements so it was a disappointment that this wasn't the case, however we would still return as the house is lovely. There's plenty of board games which our children loved and the back garden is a gorgeous sun trap on a morning. Would definitely recommend, especially for large families as there's so much space.

“Overall this was a great holiday home.”

Location was good, nice and quiet and a 15 minute walk to the sea. The building was spotlessly clean and very well equipped with really large rooms throughout. The only minor negative was that a couple of the mattresses were a bit uncomfortable, but mine in the master bedroom was lovely. Would I comeback again, definitely a YES.

“Excellent property, had a lovely stay, very spacious and clean, ideal location for the town and beach, only thing I wished I had noticed was there isn't a washing machine, having a child this would of been ideal.”

“We had an amazing month.”

The property was absolutely ideal for family gatherings. Warm, spacious, comfortable, well equipped - everyone was very happy. Great location. Comfortable beds. Lots of storage space. Good array of games. The outside area is excellent - unfortunately we didn’t have the weather to make good use of it - but I’m sure summer guests will enjoy the decked and garden areas. The owners were brilliant- quick and excellent communication and nothing was too much trouble. They really want you to enjoy your stay. Would definitely return.

“The owners of this property go above and beyond with the early text to confirm things to all the beautiful touches they include at the house.”

Our family went for Christmas. This was the first time we have had ever gone away at this time. The house was decorated beautifully. Christmas items throughout like decorations in every room, towels, tea towels, chocolate coins and biscuits to name a few. The house was spotless and extremely spacious for our party of 9 including a dog! All rooms were perfectly equipped and the outside area was a big hit for our dog. Very safe and secure, would love to use this space in the summer! The house was in a good location easily accessible to shops and of course the sea. It has certainly given us a Christmas to remember and treasure. We experienced a family member sadly requiring to go into hospital and the host again went above and beyond enabling us to extend our stay! Thank you so so much Marie and Chris. Cant wait to book again.

“Super clean property, within easy walking distance of the south bay amenities.”

A Morrison’s local just over the road and a big Tesco a short walk away. Room for three cars if you can park prettily, lots of space inside for our 7 night family get together/holiday. A big dining table and chairs for the 10 of us. Everything worked as it should, the hot water was always hot and the showers had good pressure. We would definitely stay here again if coming to Scarborough,.

“This home was absolutely beautiful.”

Very undersold in the description. There was so many little touches that made the stay all the more enjoyable. Everything needed was in the kitchen even tea coffee sugar, lots of biscuits. Even a dog bowl and towel! There was sky tv in every room which was a bonus with kids. A big pergola in the garden was perfect for sitting outside even in English weather. The house is also in a perfect location with the town being only 10 minutes walk and the beach the same. Also a really short walk from the train station so you wouldn’t need a car if you wanted to stay here. I will be recommending this beautiful house to family and friends. Thanks to the owners for a lovely stay

“We were a party of 7 adults and 2 children.”

Plenty of room to. eat together in the dining room, hang out in the lounge or sit out in the garden together. The property was situated near to the.local shop and large supermarket. We were close to the seafront and the.grandchildren were there ever day. couldn't fault anything and a great time.was had by all. Highly recommend

Phillip July 2023

“The house is lovely and suited our requirements perfectly.”

However, the showers were quite difficult to turn off and as it was quite humid at night, fans would have been appreciated. The only downside was that we couldn’t park on the drive due to waterworks maintenance which was a bit of a nuisance as we had two very young children with us and we had to park on the opposite side of the road. However, we were offered the chance to park in the forecourt of the garage just up the road and we have since had the offer of reimbursement of any parking charges incurred which is appreciated.

“Extremely good experience while staying at the property.”

Really was a home from home and everything we needed for our stay plus more. Communication with the welcoming hosts was excellent and had all the information we needed for our arrival.
