The property's location is frequently highlighted as a major advantage, being within walking distance to the beach and town centre. Despite some parking difficulties, the convenience of the location is a strong positive aspect for guests.
The lodge is commended for its comfort, with guests finding the beds cozy and the living spaces inviting. However, a minor issue was mentioned regarding the length of single beds for taller individuals, slightly impacting the comfort score.
Facilities are generally well-received, with a large range cooker and other utilities available for guests. However, there are mentions of a grill and hob not working, indicating room for improvement in maintenance.

Parking permits for 4 cars included. No smoking.. Princess Lodge is situated in the old town of Scarborough, just a stone’s throw from the beach. This Grade II listed property built in the early 1800s once had a chemist’s shop on the ground floor, serving the local community from the early 1900s, right up until the 1960s. The property is now a wonderful holiday home with plenty of space for ten people.
The old town is where the fishermen’s cottages, quay side and shipyards were located. All the streets of the old town are on the hillside so the wives could watch for the boats coming back in. A short walk and you are in the town centre, where you can walk through the indoor market and onto the high street.
Scarborough has plenty to do for people of all ages, with two fantastic beaches and a long promenade, perfect for an evening stroll. Peasholm Park is well worth a visit, especially for those with children as there are pedalos, rowing boats and canoes so you can enjoy sailing around the beautiful lake.
For evening entertainment, Scarborough Open Air Theatre is the largest in Europe where many international acts put on shows throughout the summer. There are plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance from the property, and for those who enjoy shopping the High Street is just a 5-minute walk away.
Filey, Whitby and Bridlington are all a short drive away making the property ideally placed to visit these towns, as well as the North York Moors and the Yorkshire Wolds. The medieval city of York is less than an hour away by car or you can catch a direct train from Scarborough.

Perfect location. A warm and comfortable house in the heart of Scarborough. It had everything we needed including decent kitchen equipment for cooking for 9. Spotlessly clean and warm in a very cold snap. The house is literally next door to a welcoming little pub but we never heard any noise from it. The single glazing and proximity to the pavement does mean you will over hear a lot of strangers conversations though 😀

We had some tall people in our group and some of the single beds had metal at the base which made them not long enough. Otherwise great location.
