About this property

Superbly positioned in walking distance to the golden beach at North Bay in Scarborough, this 1930's detached house is the perfect place for families and friends to enjoy a wonderful Yorkshire holiday. Beautifully furnished throughout to a high standard this exquisite property exudes character and style, a delightful retreat to return to during your stay. Set back from the main road with ample parking, this attractive house rests adjacent to Peasholm Park, a lovely place to gather for a picnic by the lake on a warm summers' day or to view the events showcased at the open-air theatre. During the winter months, the marvellous gas AGA keeps you toasty and warm in the kitchen, a beautiful, airy room to meet for breakfast with the family. This remarkable house boasts two sitting rooms, wonderfully presented in a tasteful, earthy colour scheme complementing leather sofas and art-deco style details; the second room enjoys a quirky, modern wallpaper print and an electric stove. Spoilt for choice, the two ground floor cloakrooms are accompanied by a third on the first floor alongside the family bathroom occupying an all-white shade and well-appointed fixtures. Spread over two levels, the bedrooms are all elegantly decorated in bright, fresh hues, some of which benefit from en-suite showers and the top floor rooms enjoy lovely little suntrap balconies on which to sit out and absorb the fresh Yorkshire air. As you wander up the wide staircases to the first and second floors, you will be welcomed by fabulous, stained glass windows streaming bursts of vivid colour into the large landing areas. These wonderful period features of the building can be seen in parts throughout, from the grand fireplace and oak wood panelling in the formal dining room to the large bay windows overlooking the gardens outside. For entertainment during your stay, head to the converted garage and into the games and cinema room, and enjoy some quality leisure time. For a more relaxing end to an evening, turn on the hot tub and soak in the warm bubbles in a more secluded area of the garden. Head out the door and within a short walk find the popular Scarborough Open Air Theatre, where you can catch your favourite artists performing live shows throughout the summer. Relish in the wonderful stretches of sandy beach on the North Bay and South Bay during your visit to Scarborough; the many attractions await you at this glorious seaside town of North Yorkshire, not to mention the amenities on offer at nearby Whitby via the North Yorkshire and Cleveland Heritage Coast. Overall, a spectacular choice for your family break away.

The seaside town of Scarborough retains many of its original buildings, parks and gardens, as well as its castle which overlooks the town. North Bay and South Bay provide two stretches of beaches, popular with families and small children. There are a number of child friendly activities and many visitor attractions for grown-ups too, including the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough Spa and Scarborough Open Air Theatre for live music. Scarborough is a great location for outdoor activities, with golf courses, coastal walks along the Cleveland Way, cycle routes such as the old railway to Whitby, sailing and championship surfing.
