The Beach House is a beautiful, detached house a few minutes from the North Bay Beach overlooking Peasholm Park, one of the finest locations in Scarborough and voted one of the best parks in the UK. The park has stunning gardens and wildlife, and lots of leisurely walks can be taken here. The park is also home to the world-famous Naval Warfare, a unique miniature sea battle that is re-enacted. There are plenty of Dragon Pedlow boats or rowing boats. During the summer season there are regular concerts in the park. The park also boasts an 18-hole mini golf course so there’s plenty to do right on your doorstep.
As well as Peasholm Park you are close to the cricket ground where the famous summer festival gives you the opportunity to see county cricket at its best. The Beach House is a short stroll from the North Bay’s long sandy beach, which makes it a great location for a family holiday. Just down the hill is the Open Air Theatre, the largest open-air amphitheatre in Europe where, during the summer season, you can enjoy concerts from world renowned artists. The Alpamare waterpark, offering water slides and a wave machine, is only a 10-minute stroll away. The location of The Beach House means there really is something for everyone right on the doorstep! The long wide sandy beach has won awards for cleanliness making it perfect for families.
For the more adventurous, surfing lessons can be booked from the surf shop just down the hill. Scarborough boasts two beaches with a long, flat promenade where you can enjoy early evening strolls. The castle stands proud on the hillside separating the two bays. The South Bay is more vibrant with the amusements and shops, and the North Bay is the quieter, more peaceful area. For those of you who like evening entertainment, the Stephen Joseph Theatre is close by. Famous for the world premieres of almost all of Alan Ayckbourn’s plays, the theatre is well worth a visit. There are plenty of good bars and restaurants all within walking distance.
Scarborough is a great base to see what the east coast has to offer. The Beach House is the perfect base for walkers too, being situated only a few miles from the famous North York Moors National Park, or you can walk part of the Cleveland Way along the rugged coast. Just a short drive and you can visit Whitby, Filey, Flamborough, Bridlington and the famous rspb cliffs at Bempton where you can see the puffins and gannets in their natural habitat. The medieval city of York is only an hour away where you can visit the famous Minster or the railway museum. The house is very large and spacious with five bedrooms, 4 of which are en-suite, and the dining room has one large table to accommodate everyone. A bonus is having a bedroom on the ground floor.

Unfortunately we had an issue with the heating while we were there (and it was a cold weekend) so although cosy downstairs some of us were cold upstairs as the radiators did not come on. However the owners did lend us electric heaters.A small point, oven gloves would be helpful, otherwise equipment good, and we appreciated the welcome pack very much.The situation beside a very pretty park was lovely, a very attractive short walk down to the seafront.

We stayed as a family of 10 adults. The house was very spacious for us all to be together but not on top of each other. The house has all the right facilities and equipment needed. Location was perfect, something for everyone. One note, not to sound petty but there are no coat hooks.

This is confidently the best holiday home I have stayed in. We spent the weekend 10 adults and 1 very large dog in the house and found it to be the perfect space. The location is a stones throw away from Peasholm park and the north side and the house includes everything you could possibly need. The extra touches though are what makes this place amazing. Fully stocked games cupboard, a welcome package for when we arrived (with even a separate doggy hamper) we would 100% stay here again and are planning to book for the same time next year. It’s few and far between to find places as good as this!
