The town of Scarborough has all you could expect on offer from Britain's oldest and most attractive seaside resort. It's easy to see why in 2017 Scarborough was voted as the most visited place outside of London

The Beaches is a 5 mintue walk to the Blue Flag awarded sandy North Bay which is perfect for having beach fun with your families, has a year-round Dog friendly stretch.

​

The nearby South Bay offers family fun too, with Donkey rides on the sandy beach and Amusement arcades, not to mention the harbour. Scarborough also has a fascinating Norman Castle, the Spa, Olivers Mount, The Open Air Theater, Alpamere - the new Water Park, and in 

​

Eating out in Scarborough is quite an event! We have restaurants offering the finest English food and the best fish and chips in the country (just a few doors down from The Beaches we have the 'award winning' North Bay Fisheries!) and if you get bored of the chips, if it's something a little different you are after we have a wide range of Chinese, Thai, Italian, Spanish, Indian and Greek restaurants to try out.

Scarborough is an ideal place from which to explore North Yorkshire. Adjacent to the North Yorkshire Moors and just over thirty minutes drive from the enchanting fishing port of Whitby and less than thirty minutes from the smuggler village of Robin Hoods Bay. We are also only one hour from the beautiful historic York.
