We were a stones throw from the quay, that had a variety of different things to do and a great choice of pubs and restaurants. We didn't use our car all week and made the most of the local attractions. Even during the busy times at Scarborough, Quayside House was always peaceful and away from the hustle and bustle of the town, which was unbelievable, as we were so close to it all. Quayside House, was beautiful and had everything that we needed. The house was spotless and felt very luxurious. We enjoyed it so much that none of us wanted to go home.

Maybe a few extra basics like salt pepper and tea towels but the welcome box very nice.
