North Bay Hotel in Scarborough – Seaside Hideaway Hotel

Nestled in the heart of Scarborough’s beautiful North Bay, Seaside Hideaway Hotel is a peaceful, adults-only hotel just a short stroll from the beach, Peasholm Park and the Open Air Theatre. If you’re looking for a quiet, comfortable base away from the hustle of South Bay but still close to all the best bits of Scarborough, you’re in exactly the right place.

With just eight lovingly cared-for ensuite rooms, home-cooked breakfasts and evening meals, and a cosy licensed bar, Seaside Hideaway feels more like staying with friends than in a big, busy hotel.

Why Choose North Bay in Scarborough?

Scarborough has two main bays – and North Bay is the calmer, more relaxed side of the town. Here you’ll find sweeping sand, dramatic cliffs and a more natural, peaceful feel, without the arcades and full-on bustle of South Bay. Visit North Yorkshire
