A wonderful little gem of a hideaway Seaside Hideaway is a lovely little adult only guesthouse on the outskirts of Scarborough. It is straight across from the open air theatre in Peasholm Park, which can be accessed straight across the road. There is parking outside the guesthouse.for a number of vehicles also . We were warmly welcomed by Sarah and Jim the owners and offered coffee and homemade cake on arrival which is never refused and was wonderful. Sarah and Jim are a lovely couple and always willing to help in any way. We were taken to our room which was beautifully decorated and clean. There were a a lovely selection of Temples Spa Toiletriesin the room for guest use. The guesthouse has an evening meal menu which is all made by Jim, guests can either prebook these before or do their own thing on the wonderful East Yorkshire Coastline.Breakfast is between 8:30 and 9:30 and is beautifully prepared by Jim. Sarah had three amazing young ladies helping her out and they were all brilliant and polite. A credit to their generation. There is a well stocked bar on an evening which had Poretti and Guinness on draught while we were there. This opened at around 6:00pm and closed late ,there was background music but not loud. We will be definitely revisiting this amazing place in the future. If you have not been or fancy a few days away this is a treat. Angela and Adrian Smith.

Happy stay at the Hideaway! A lovely warm welcome from Sarah and Jim. They ensured we had everything we needed. Immaculate and comfortable accomodation. Lovely calm atmosphere. Breakfast was great. We didn't get to try the dinner, but other guests told us that we missed a treat. Thank you so much and will book again soon. Best wishes. Peter & Angela Churchill

Awesome hotel, awesome hosts We had a wonderful stay at this fabulous hotel. Sarah and Jim are awesome hosts and nothing is too much trouble. The gorgeous toiletries in the rooms are a lovely touch and the girls they have working the breakfast and dinner shifts are the sweetest loveliest girls who are an absolute asset. Location is perfect for a stroll along the seafront or Peasholm Park, and great if you're heading to a show at the Open Air Theatre. The only disappointment - our inability to poach an egg the way Jim can!! He was happy to give advice but we're yet to see if we can follow it! 🤣 We will absolutely be back. 😊

Steady restful three day visit without the dog after a year of not being well Excellently based this is a treasure of a Hotel. Jim and Sarah are charming, knowledgeable and and very obliging. Your comfort is their aim and their knowledge of the Scarborough area is incredible from things to do, to places to eat and drink. The rooms were extremely comfortable and clean and the added benefit of a bath as well as shower was brilliant after a day busing and walking round the attractions. The home cooked food at both breakfast and in the evening are excellent. Lovely bar area and on site parking. From their situation in the north bay it is within easy reach of the beach and very well placed to be able to catch the bus to the South bay. Would definitely book again and thanks Jim for your tip for Gianni’s to eat at. This hotel is definitely value for money
