In the village of Scalby you have a couple of friendly pubs, which serve hearty meals as well as the Daisy tea rooms with a lovely garden for sunny days. Scarborough’s North Bay is just 2 miles away, with Ravenscar, Robin Hood’s Bay and Whitby along the coast to the north, and Filey, Flamborough and Bridlington to the south. Making this an ideal base for those looking to enjoy Yorkshire’s glorious coastline. Hayburn Wyke is close by, a woodland walk with a waterfall cascading over the cliff top onto a secluded cove. There is an 18th century coaching inn here, serving hearty meals as well as tasty desserts, so why not treat yourself to some food after a busy day of exploring.
Alpamare Waterpark and Spa and the Open Air Theatre are only a 5-minute drive away. The open air theatre is the biggest in Europe with an exciting line up of artists throughout the summer months.
The Cleveland Way and the Cinder Track are scenic walking trails nearby, where you can take in the incredible views as you visit some of the prettiest towns and villages along the coast. At Bempton Cliffs and neighbouring Flamborough you will see thousands of nesting sea birds including gannets and colourful puffins. If you look carefully down into the sea you will see seals peering back at you as they bob in the waves. On the moorland you have beautiful red grouse as well as hundreds of pheasants who look incredibly elegant as they take to the air when startled by walkers. Watch the skies for buzzards and owls, and on sunny days you may spot basking adders. The North Yorkshire Moors National Park has some delightful little villages amongst the vast stretches of heather strewn hills and valleys. There is also the ancient Dalby Forest which has brilliant cycle and walking trails to be explored, as well as zip wires through the trees if you are feeling adventurous. Enjoy the great outdoors and take in your surroundings whilst having a welcoming base with a little touch of luxury to return to, making your holiday one to treasure. These properties (UK40240 The Bluebell) and UK40241 (The Bilberry) can be booked together to accommodate up to 6 guests.

We were delighted with the apartment, clean, tidy, modern and with all you could require. A great welcome from Louisa and the location was brilliant for us as we like to experience the East Coast locations and everywhere was in easy reach. From dolphin spotting off Scarborough Marine Drive to fish and chips at Trenchers in Whitby we had a great week
