Guests say
Scarborough Wave is a spacious and centrally located cottage, ideal for families and groups seeking easy access to Scarborough’s attractions, beaches, and amenities. Guests appreciate the generous room sizes, comfortable beds, and rare off-road parking. The property is pet-friendly and well-equipped for self-catering, with a handy shop nearby. While some reviews mention the need for deeper cleaning and minor maintenance, most guests enjoyed their stay and would return, highlighting the property’s excellent location and value for money.
Several guests noted the need for a deep clean, mentioning stained carpets, mould in bathrooms, and general lack of cleanliness on arrival. However, some reviews described the property as clean and well-presented, indicating inconsistency in cleaning standards.
The location is highly praised, with guests loving the proximity to Scarborough’s beaches, parks, and town centre. The convenience store next door and easy access to attractions are frequently mentioned positives, though some noted road noise due to the central setting.
Guests consistently mention comfortable beds and spacious rooms, making the property suitable for larger groups. Some noise from the road and minor maintenance issues were noted, but overall comfort levels are high.
The property offers good facilities, including off-road parking, a dishwasher, and a washing machine. Some guests found the kitchen lacking in utensils and seating, and minor maintenance issues were reported, but overall the facilities meet most guests’ needs.
Guests appreciated helpful owners and festive decorations during Christmas, but as gifts or special touches are not guaranteed, this cannot be assured for all stays. The provision of parking permits and prompt responses to issues were also valued.
