At the far end of North Bay is the Sea Life Centre where you can walk through an underwater tunnel and see the rescue seals. Halfway between the two bays, the castle stands proudly on the cliffs above. Further down the coast are Filey, Flamborough and Bridlington and up north are historic Whitby. Beach ½ mile.

This was our third stay in this lovely property. It is very clean, comfortable and modern. Its position, directly opposite to the entrance to Peasholm Park is ideal. There is no way that I could give any fault or negative comments about Seashells. All of our experience was psitive. and the welcome pack for ourselves and our two small dogs is the most generous we have ever received in our many stays in holiday homes. We shall be going back again and can recommend it very highly.

The house is Perfectly located for everything in the north bay, (Peasholm park, the open air theatre, beach ,etc.) The ground floor ensuite bedroom was a god send for my eldery parents. I cannot recomend Seashell highly enough

This was our first stay and it was that good we have already booked for next year. The house is very spacious, well equipped and comfortable. It is the perfect location with the added bonus of it's own parking spaces. We met Michelle the owner who was so helpful and contactable if required. We enjoyed the perfect holiday at our stay and looking forward to coming back again.
