Two recent visits Stayed here twice over past few weeks while visiting Scarborough for the cricket. Lovely welcome on arrival. Sarah and Jim are a great team running this place together. Immaculately clean and always smells amazing! Lovely little touches in the rooms with toiletries and biscuits. Breakfast is home cooked and delicious, with baked treats provided by Sarah. We also had a couple of evening meals while we were here which were also delicious and filling. Will definitely be coming back.

Superb!! First time at Seaside Hideaway it won’t be our last. Such a warm friendly welcome from Sarah and Jim. A nice cup of tea and shortbread biscuits were served to us on arrival. Very thoughtful. First impressions Wow!. Room 9 Spacious, spotless, warm and light. Tea tray excellent and replenished the next day. Comfortable bed with beautiful linen. Walk in wardrobe with plenty of hanging space. Bathroom neat and clean, temple Spa toiletries provided, large soft towels and bath robes. Breakfast was amazing, yoghurt with homemade compote, fresh fruit pots, cereal (lots of choice), good choice for cooked breakfast, toast, and home made fruit loaf, homemade marmalade scrummy, tea and fresh coffee. The bar is well stocked and a lovely inviting space. We ate in the hotel in the evening which was excellent. We would not hesitate to eat in the hotel again. Location is perfect just up the road from Peasholme Park. Sarah and Jim’s knowledge of Scarborough is exceptional and they will guide you along the way. They have lots of recommendations for things to do and places to eat.
