Away from Scarborough's hustle and bustle, but just a short stroll away from the town centre, you'll find this smart apartment. It's not a huge space, but it more than makes up for its petite size with plenty of style and all the amenities you need for a fabulous coastal getaway. The open-plan living space is ideal for spending quality time with your partner. Cook up a delicious meal in the kitchen as you chat over a glass of wine, and serve up your culinary creations at the modern dining table beside the bay window. Afterwards, enjoy a fresh cup of coffee on the chic blue velvet sofa as you make some plans for the following day – there are plenty of options to choose from. The seafront is only a ten-minute walk away, and you'll love wandering along the promenade and breathing in the salty air. Picture-perfect Scarborough Harbour is fifteen minutes away on foot, and you can even take a dip in the water at neighbouring South Bay Beach. It would be easy to spend all your time in this charming town, but if you're feeling active then lace up your walking boots and hit the trails in... the North York Moors National Park – it's just a ten-minute drive away.

About Scarborough
Scarborough’s natural spa waters and beach-side location have been drawing in tourists since the 18th century. Indeed, it claims to be Britain’s first seaside resort, and few things have changed since the pier and Victorian spa first opened. You’ll still find a bustling hive of retro amusement arcades, fish and chip shops and ice cream parlours serving knickerbocker glories on the South Bay promenade, where a cliffside tramway still ferries...
