Stroll down to the beach or hike across the North York Moors when you stay at this cottage in popular Scarborough. Perfect for families and friends, the three-bedroom holiday home enjoys an enviable position within the seaside town, less than 0.5 miles from South Bay Beach and well placed for shops and eateries. Bring your faithful chum if you are seeking a dog-friendly break and enjoy the outside space of the courtyard in the summer months.

Make your way inside to shuffle off your beach sandals or walking boots before heading through to the inviting lounge. Put your feet up in here for a spell in front of a movie on the Smart TV or simply chat as you unwind with a cup of tea and a Yorkshire fat rascal. The kitchen is compact and features everything you might require to help you whip up homecooked dishes for your party, while the dining room is the perfect place to enjoy meals and plan the next adventure together. As each exciting day draws to a close, wander upstairs to the first floor, where the bedrooms are situated. These include a twin, a double and a king-size bedroom. There is also a well-appointed family bathroom up here. Take the fresh air out in the courtyard as often as possible. Have coffee and croissants out here on fine mornings and chilled wine on summer nights.

Take the children to enjoy the traditional bucket and spade attractions of the seaside town. Visit the castle, the Sealife Centre and the water park. Take a trip along the miniature North Bay Railway. Keen walkers might like to pick up the Cleveland Way and hike 10.5 miles along the Yorkshire Heritage Coast to Filey. Plan a day out to Whitby, with its famous 199 steps up to the dramatic abbey ruins, 19.5 miles away.
