Such wonderful accommodation in a fabulous setting. Was there over New Year 25/26 and thoroughly enjoyed our time in such a spectacular location.
It had all the facilities we'd hoped for, fully fitted kitchen, washer, drier, dishwasher, etc. Large living room space with good family size dining table. There were four bedrooms for us to select from. The front bedroom has incredible sea views, where you can see from Scarborough all the way across to Yons Nab, near Filey. I was certainly surprised by the size of the bed in our room. I stand 6' 8" in my stocking feet and normally hang over the end of the bed. Not so in this bed, as it was as long as I am, which is a real treat for me!
On the outside there's easy access to local towns, with all they have to offer, even off season: Filey, Scarborough, Bridlington and Whitby. There's easy access from the main road with enough parking at the house for three cars.
This is a very quiet, out of the way location makes for a peaceful, relaxing break away from it all. Fabulous location if you're a rambler, with the Cleveland Way passing just in front of the house.
On New Year's day we had a bracing walk along the clean beach. Again we had spectacular views towards Scarborough. Enjoyed watching the surfers braving the chilly waters so they could go and catch some large waves that were rolling in. If you're a surfer then there's a surf shop just behind the house too.
One of my hobbies is Astronomy and I was blown away by the low light pollution and clear, dark skies right outside the front door of the property. On the outskirts of Scarborough is something called 'Star Disk'. Information on the Visit North Yorkshire website it says it's the largest illuminated "Star Disk" in the UK. If you search the Internet you may find astronomy events taking place locally, at such places like Bempton Cliffs and Dalby Forrest, both roughly 30 minutes car drive away.
Without a doubt we'll be going back before too long.
