Gary is a fantastic host and his breakfast keep you going until the evening meal. Always around when you need help or advice, a mine of information. Spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Would love to stay again!

We chose this hotel based on previous reviews and it certainly lived up to expectations. The host, Gary, was very friendly and helpful, giving information about where to go and directions, etc. It was my birthday while we were there and he gave me a lovely card, an unexpected surprise. The room we stayed in was spacious, comfortable and very clean. It had everything we needed and plenty of electric points, something often lacking.
Breakfast was amazing, cooked to order, delicious, fresh and hot, served on heated plates. After the first morning we had to ask for smaller portions as it was far too much for us!
It is next to the beautiful Peasholm Park and you can walk into the town area in 10 minutes. If, like me, you’re not as fit and healthy as you’d wish, there is an open-topped bus that runs every few minutes from the park to the Scarborough Spa and back, for a reasonable price.
Thank you for a lovely stay. We would definitely recommend this hotel.

Gary could not do enough to make you feel welcome all served up with a hot freshly cooked breakfast in the morning. All in all a lovely little B&B. Would definitely stay here again.

Gary super friendly and helpful, just like other reviews have said.We stayed in the family room with a separate room with bunk beds. At first we weren't too sure how it would work out as the bathroom just had a toilet and shower - the sink is in the main bedroom, but it actually didn't inconvenience us at all. We found it really quiet and comfortable and would definitely return.

Gary is a great host. Extremely friendly and helpful. The guesthouse is charming and very clean. The breakfast is huge. A taxi from the train station will cost around 5GBP, or you can walk it in about 15 minutes.

This was the nicest guesthouse I have ever been to spotless, friendly, comfortable. Gary the owner was a fantastic host he carried our case upstairs, offered us tea and coffee when we arrived its the little thoughtful extras that make this place so nice. We will certainly be returning.

The owner, Gary, is excellent. You won’t meet a better host!Our room was a nice surprise for my 2 teenagers, as it was more like 2 rooms, giving them their own room, virtually. The room and accomodation overall is slightly dated, being an old building, but everything is fresh and clean; towels are changed daily and each room cleaned and tidied, with complimentary tea/coffee/biscuits refreshed.Inclusive breakfast is of excellent quality, beautifully cooked and served, a great start to the day.We can’t praise this guesthouse enough, the friendliness and helpfulness of the owner makes it a cut above! We also got an on-street parking permit so parking at the guesthouse is no problem.We will always recommend it to anyone, and will DEFINITELY go back when next in the area!
