About this property

Captain's Cottage is a charming mid-terrace house that can be found in the heart of Scarborough, just a short walk from bustling restaurants and the beachfront. With a large outdoor area to spend the evenings, this property is perfect for a small family or two couples wanting to be close to the action of a fun-filled resort area. It offers two bedrooms, including a double on the first floor and a twin on the second floor, with a promising view of the night sky through the roof windows as you drift off to sleep. The tidy kitchen/dining area hosts an array of amenities to assist you with preparing a home-cooked meal or whipping up something with freshly-bought fish from the seafront. The sitting room is the perfect place to unwind, with a beautiful electric fire to snuggle up next to on a breezy night on the rocking chair. Outside is a large decking area fit for the whole family to get together and enjoy breakfast together. The local area is perfect to experience seafood cuisine, fresh from the sea, or simply enjoy some delicious fish and chips on the beachfront with other holiday-goers. Enrich yourself with history by taking a trip to the relics of medieval town life at The Bolts or visit the Rotunda Museum, an 1829 museum offering you an insight into local history, or take a walk down to Scarborough Harbour or North Bay Beach where you can find a yacht club, seafront café, and amusement arcades. Further out is Peasholm Park, famous for its breathtaking Japanese-style landscaped park and gardens; a true picturesque paradise. To discover more beautiful scenery, head to Yorkshire Dales National Park for a walk filled with magnificent wonders and tranquil settings. Captain's Cottage is a brilliant property with easy access to the beachfront, walking routes, and family fun activities.

Popular since Victorian times, the vibrant seaside town of Scarborough retains many of its original fine buildings, parks and gardens, as well as its historic castle which overlooks the town. North Bay and South Bay provide two superb stretches of beautiful, golden sandy beaches, popular with families and small children. There are a number of child friendly activities and many excellent 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, lovely coastal walks along the Cleveland Way, stunning cycle routes such as the old railway to Whitby, beautiful sailing and championship quality surfing. Add to this all the usual seaside entertainment and bustling promenades located close to the beach and Scarborough is the destination with something for everyone. Ideally situated for touring the coastline and the moors, Scarborough is an ideal base for a fun-filled break.
