Guests say
Guests consistently praise the cottage for its cleanliness, cosy atmosphere, and prime location close to local attractions. The property is well-equipped for a comfortable stay, with a special mention of a welcome pack adding a thoughtful touch. While mostly positive, a suggestion for a new mattress and the addition of an oven glove indicate room for minor improvements.
Reviewers frequently mention the cleanliness of the cottage, describing it as well looked after, with no negative comments on this aspect.
The location is highly praised for being peaceful and close to both the seafront and town centre, with easy access to local sights.
Comfort is highlighted with mentions of a cosy atmosphere and good sleep quality, though one comment suggests the mattress could be replaced.
Facilities are generally commended, including the presence of a washer/drier, but the absence of an oven glove and a preference for a table and chairs over a breakfast bar suggest minor areas for improvement.
The welcome pack is appreciated, indicating thoughtfulness, but as gifts are not guaranteed, future guests should consider this a delightful bonus rather than an expectation.
About this property
Resting in the heart of Scarborough, near the North Yorkshire coastline is 22 St. Marys Walk, a delightful, three-bedroom home. Just paces away from the beach, and a hub of amenities and attractions, 22 St. Marys Walk offers a homely base for a group of five, complete with a stylish interior, flexible sleeping arrangements and a private garden. Park up on the roadside and head indoors to be greeted by the sitting room, complete with plush seating, a Smart TV, and an electric fire to light on cooler evenings, along with a selection of books to delve into for a relaxing evening. The kitchen/diner is well-equipped for a self-catered stay, where you can prepare and enjoy meals, before retreating to the rear patio for a tipple or two. Three well-appointed bedrooms await upstairs, a double, a twin, and a single, all serviced by the bathroom. Once you're ready to explore beyond your abode, be spoilt for choice when stocking up on the essentials and dining out, with a wide variety on your doorstep, before taking to Scarborough Beach for a refreshing ice cream, touring the remains of Scarborough Castle, or burning off some energy at the Scarborough Sky Trail Adventure Park, before following the Cinder Track through the North York Moors National Park. Reaching Whitby and its seaside attractions, be sure to discover the gothic structures of Whitby Abbey, stroll along Whitby Beach, dotted with colourful beach huts and independent shops, or brush up on your local knowledge at Whitby Museum, before settling down for a seafood banquet at Trenchers. With Filey resting south, add the Filey Bird Garden and Animal Park, The Bay Beach, and Filey Brigg Country Park to your itinerary, before returning home for supper. All of this awaits at 22 St. Marys Walk.
Popular since Victorian times, the vibrant seaside town of Scarborough retains many of its original fine buildings, parks and gardens, as well as its historic castle which overlooks the town. North Bay and South Bay provide two superb stretches of beautiful, golden sandy beaches, popular with families and small children. There are a number of child friendly activities and many excellent visitor attractions for grown-ups too, including the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough Spa and Scarborough Open Air Theatre for live music. Scarborough is a great location for outdoor activities, with golf courses, lovely coastal walks along the Cleveland Way, stunning cycle routes such as the old railway to Whitby, beautiful sailing and championship quality surfing. Add to this all the usual seaside entertainment and bustling promenades located close to the beach and Scarborough is the destination with something for everyone. Ideally situated for touring the coastline and the moors, Scarborough is an ideal base for a fun-filled break.

It's in a brilliant location and is very clean and well looked after. Beds are comfortable and we all got a good night's sleep, area is nice and quiet. We really enjoyed our stay. Only one minor thing is that an oven glove would have been very handy.

We had a lovely stay, the cottage was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The location is great, very peaceful and just a short walk from St Marys Church, the castle and the cliffs overlooking the north bay.
