We were looking for a large comfortable venue for a 17 person multigenerational, extended family get together, for a week, in an interesting location. The Manor House, and Scarborough, fitted the bill extremely well. Highlights were - sufficient off road parking, plenty of space, comfortable bedrooms, adequate bathrooms, spacious dining room, and the hot tub. Inevitably, there's always room for improvement, so we would offer the following, in a positive spirit. On late Friday arrival we noticed the microwave plate was missing, as was a fridge shelf. An inconvenience as we were largely self catering. By that time 'out of hours' support was 'emergencies only', and as also a Bank Holiday weekend, a response didn't arrive until Tuesday. The issues should have been discovered, and resolved, before we arrived. In our view Support should be proactive on the arrival day, including into the evening. We later reported the hot tub area lights as inoperative. The maintenance guy came round and plugged them in . Unfortunately this kept blowing the Laundry Room circuits, so we unplugged them again. I think this had been a long term issue. The downstairs toilet/bathroom door didn't have a lock. I bought a bolt from B&Q, and fitted it. The main lounge TV wouldn't hold a freeview tuning cycle. Reception kept degrading. Steps down into the garden from the hot tub area were loose and unsafe. Garden though was impressive, we wish we'd had better weather to enjoy it more. Kitchen could do with more baking trays/pans/utensils to cater for a 'full house'. Crockery that matched would more in keeping with the house style. Cutlery needs a major upgrade, for the full Manor House fine dining experience. None of the above was a major issue, so we would recommend The Manor House, and it's environs. It's a great part of the UK to visit.

the kids loved the extensive grounds, and the house was just so comfy, everything you could need. You could walk to the beach in around 20 minutes so great position, plenty of parking and great communication from Julie at Sykes cottages before we got there. The house could do with a bit of tlc but this didnât affect our holidays at all.

Plenty of space, there was a hottub, bbq, very nice garden and neighbourhood. Minor issue is what looked like mold in 1 double room upstairs. The shower upstairs seemed to stop working whenever the washing machine was on. The annex temperature is very warm in the morning & cold at night
