Week in Scarborough
The welcome pack was very useful with tea and coffee and other household stuff available in the kitchen. Parking was a bit confusing. For parking permit, we used the tan-coloured scratch card 4-day parking card (We didn't use the blue parking wheel timer card.) The house is spacious set over 4 floors with steep stairs. Not suitable for the elderly. It has 2 TV rooms so can cater for different age groups. The master bedroom has a super king bed which was very comfortable. The loft rooms have 2 bedrooms one has 2 single beds both children said they were not all that comfortable as they could feel the springs. The other double bedroom however was very comfortable and has stunning views across the sea. All in all a great holiday home and location. I would recommend staying at this property.

Convenient location
Well located, just a stones throw from beach and castle. Lovely confu beds and bedding. Steep stairs so not really ok for very young children. Children enjoyed playroom and toys. Could do with more storage for food. All in all a veryv njoyable stay

suggestion to make family stay safe
The place is super. The only problem was lack of stairgate on the top floor.A child could be killed or seriously injured if they wandered ,confused in the dark.Our littlest child has health problems ,often at night..We bought a non adjustable gate,cheaper,which is difficult for adult to climb over. We recommend you buy the adjustable one from Argos for east entry,about£40 to ensure safety and peace of mind for future families. We have left the cheaper one fr other peolple to use. T hank you

Long weekend with the family
Had a lovely 3 days, great location, within walking distance to the seafront. House was clean & spacious, had everything we could need. The only downside which had no reflection on the property (which was excellent) was the lack of parking in that part of Scarborough.
