Sheila and William were very welcoming and very good with our 3 year old. The location is great as its only a short walk to north beach which in my opinion is better than the south beach. The room and facilities were very clean and wouldn't look to go anywhere else if we were to go to Scarborough again. Parking was just outside on the street which was £2 all day which you buy at the apartment. Overall 10 out of 10!

    The host is exceptional, so friendly. I had loads of questions about Scarborough which she was more than pleased to answer in detail and gave me information. The hotel is in a great location, the rooms well equipped, and it has a nice lounge. The breakfast was fabulous and the service second to none. I would thoroughly recommend this guest house.

    Scalby is a lovely village with two nice pubs. There's a tearoom next door. Lots of walks on the coastal path from cottage. We parked our 3 cars easily on the main Rd. It was so quiet in the cottage even though the road is quite busy. Our hostess was charming and met us with the key.The kitchen was wonderful, cosy lounge, big bathroom and bedrooms. Surprised at the private courtyard at the back. Didn't want to come home.

    We stayed at St Michael's with a group for friends. Alex & Annie were great hosts. Really friendly and accommodating. There was everything you needed. I requested Gluten Free breakfast and Alex bought gluten free sausages for me, which was really attentive and thoughtful. Enjoyed quiet background music in dining room. Cosy dining room.Very near to Peasholme Park. Very good breakfast overall.

    Great location, smart and tidy accomodation, charming helpful hosts. A nostalgic trip helped by generally sunny weather, however there was a bit of a chilly wind keeping the temperature to about 12 degrees C.
