Family-friendly holiday rentals in Scarborough

We had a lovely long weekend stay. Everything was as we expected and how it looked in the pictures. The views were amazing, so was the hot tub and the goat farm was a nice touch. Charlie was a fantastic host—friendly, responsive, and always quick to answer any questions we had. We’d definitely love to stay again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing countryside escape.

We have just returned from a wonderful trip. The house was exactly as described, fully equipped, very friendly neighbours and loved the hot tub. Found some nice walks from the house and easy driving to the many delightful beaches and towns in the area. The local pub is a 10 minute walk with friendly staff, lovely beer garden and pub classics type menu. Would highly recommend this little gem. Thanks Dawn 😁

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely holiday home which is in a stunning location overlooking Robin Hoods Bay. It really was an unbeatable location. Steve was a fantastic host, giving us all the information we needed about the property and location. He also left us some welcome extras in the fridge 😊 The property was clean and well presented, and the hot tub and snooker room were enjoyable extras. We would happily return to this beautiful, peaceful spot in the future.

Absolutely beautiful place in an amazing location next to two great pubs and all amenities you would ever need. The house is perfect with the added bonus of the hot tub. The kitchen is really well equipped and the choice of bed layout is really helpful. Ian was very proactive and checked we were settled in and had helpful advice. So many places to visit just short drives away.

Super friendly hosts. A home away from home with spectacular views, amazing wildlife and if you’re lucky to arrive in glorious weather like we did it’s the cherry on the cake. The cabins and hot tubs are well maintained and kept pristine. Just what you need after a day of exploring one of the many nearby local villages. Pet friendly and private too which means even anxious pooches get to relax.

Had an amazing weekend at Rachael's caravan, this was our second visit and we 100% plan on coming again. Rachael is a wonderful host who is easy to contact and she takes pride in her beautiful caravan. The caravan was extremely clean, comfortable and very homely, as the weather was warm we spent most of our time outside on the decking which had plenty of seating space and the hot tub was a great added extra enjoyed mostly by the kids. There was plenty to do onsite including the swimming pool, a private dog park where you can let your doggos off lead and play. The staff at the main reception were friendly and helpful and the bar area was clean with lots food and drink options. We would highly recommend coming to stay at Serendipity and we will be visiting again.

We booked rather last minute and Maria was very responsive and flexible. The place was pristine and very comfortable. Kitchen is very well equipped and the furnishings throughout are great! We felt very much at home! Maria was warm and welcoming and gave us good ideas for where to eat. We truly loved our stay!

Lovely cottage well located for exploration of North Yorkshire. The place is perfect for long or short stays, giving you a fully equipped kitchen, ample living and dining space and comfortable and cosy bedrooms. There are also plenty of entertainment options for rainy days in, plus a nearby shop and pubs should you be needing to stay local. Well worth a stay here!

friendly couple had a lovely time. great place to stay very near the city and very peaceful

fab weekend break away with 3 children and dog. Enclosed garden meant they could all play outside safely. Great location for the beach. The chalet was set up as described, towels and bedding were fresh. We had a fab weekend.

Lisa and Graham were exceptionally friendly from the start, but allowed us our privacy while we were there. Lovely touch having local biscuits and milk on arrival. Linen and towels in the bedrooms were lovely and fresh. The water is supplied from a local spring, and was delicious, and power from solar panels. The view from the kitchen/lounge was amazing - cute goats, sheep and donkeys just outside the door, and views over the hills to the sea. Watching the sunrise was lovely. The "Scratching Post" games room was fun, with fresh eggs and drinks available to buy and a pool table. Bring 50p coins! Really close to lots of walks - either straight from the door to Boggle Hole, or a short drive from Falling Foss with a beckside forest walk. Close enough to drive to Whitby for fish and chips, or Thorpe Stores in Fylingthorpe for a fresh bacon buttie from the friendly local shop. We'd love to come back and stay again.

Pauline and Graham were truly awesome hosts. A warm couple who are passionate about the home and family and who were so welcoming. The kennel offers more than enough space, was pristine throughout and beautifully decorated. We loved our stay at the kennel, pity we did not travel with our dogs as we know they would also have been welcome! Graham we also loved your beautiful garden. Thank you for the tour !

The property was in a great location for my placement at the General Hospital (approx. 25 mins to walk) and close to all other amenities such as supermarkets, town centre, Peasholm park, sea front shops and restaurants. I really enjoyed my stay here and the hosts David and Julie added that personal touch to our communications. I would definitely recommend this property and will be back if I have another placement in Scarborough.

The house in Robin Hoods Bay provided the perfect place for a family holiday. Ideally located in the lower bay near to the beach. Parking nearby a real bonus. It was more spacious than expected and characterfully decorated. The top floor boat bed was a delight. The well equipped kitchen allowed enjoyable meal preparation. Good quality bed linen and towels. If returning to RHB wouldn’t look to stay anywhere else.

Lovely home,beautiful garden.Attention to detail with lovely decorative pieces. Was a bit surprised there wasn’t a close convenience store but worked around it. A couple of chips in the champagne glasses which I’m sure were just overlooked. Bed linen and furnishings were beautiful quality and the beds were comfy. Would definitely recommend and would be very happy to return.

Excellent stay at The Piggery. Molly made sure we had all the info we needed prior to arriving. The place itself is beautiful! The weather was quite cold while we were there so we couldn't really make use of the stunning balcony with amazing views! I imagine it is brilliant in the summer. Plenty of shops in Sleight village within a 10/15 minute walk. Train station to get to Whitby is around a 20 minute walk from The Piggery.

we stayed at this property from 17th-21st April, family of 4 plus a dog. it was certainly worth the 8 hour round trip from Oxford. we did arrive a little early but our host Paula was very kind enough to let us check-in earlier so we could get started on our 4 day stay. very well equipped cottage with everything you could possibly need for that home from home feel. we found the actual location of this property perfect with just a 5 min walk to most of the amenities on the site. Just a 10 min walk to the stunning beach and for us one of the nicest coastlines we've been to in the UK. Thanks for a great stay Paula and we are already looking to when we can return.

We had a great stay and my young kids adored the nice collection of books and toys to play with. Everything was as described and very comfortable!

Lovely stay. The only thing was the swimming pool needs modernising but the private access to the beach makes up for it. Nothing the owners can control.

Lovely clean house, kitchen had everything that was needed, bathroom was spacious and clean with a nice shower and Anthony’s communication was spot on. The pool was great for the kids and it’s a short drive to surrounding areas, would highly recommend.

Would highly recommend this little holiday apartment. We had a lovely weekend with the dog in Filey. The apartment is good value and it was great to be provided with tea, coffee, shampoo, soap etc. The location on The Bay is perfect for walking on the beach to the town.

Lovely house on a nice complex. 5 minutes walk to bar/pool/shop and 15 minutes to a glorious beach. We were a party of 4 adults and 2 toddlers and the house was plenty big enough. The table and chairs at the back are in a real suntrap from 4 pm. The host was very responsive and helpful. Recommended

Lovely cottage with everything you could possibly need supplied. Very clean. Wonderful location. We would highly recommend

Expensive but worth every penny for our 4 generation trip. Rooms for exuberant kids and quiet rooms for 90+ years old great grand parents. Large sociable kitchen diner . Swim spa at 35c so great for the Californian kids.
