I spoke to Jonathan as the shower wasnt working properly but that was ok. We all enjoyed the weekend break, we got parked ok on the street and used the parking permits. We could have done with tongs to turn foods over and also a pair of scissors. We have left a jacket and jumper in the accomodation, but Jonathan has said he will send it back. Overall I would recommend and I will stay again.

Ronald

Very comfortable stay Little issue with the ironing board not opening up But very enjoyable stay

Our 4th visit over 4 years and its a fabulous place to stay. So comfortable with everything you need to hand.

Really enjoyed our stay. It was ideal for our large family gathering with plenty of room for everyone. Great location being a short walk to North Bay and Peasholm Park. Parking was fine. Neighbour was very friendly. It would have been helpful if information had been supplied regarding refuse collection ie what goes in which bin although we did look this up online so not really an issue. We would happily use this property again.

The property is kept, as it was on our visit to the property last year, clean and tidy. The only problem we had was on arrival one of our outdoor bins was full and the second bin was part filled. On leaving the property the neighbour next door allowed us to put some of our waste in his bin , because as he said the seagulls rip any black bags open and start emptying them of waste.

Claire

We had a lovely stay here. The house was clean, spacious and comfortable. It would've been helpful to have a washing machine though. Instructions were simple and comprehensive. It was great value for money and we would definitely stay again.

A fantastic place for a Christmas family gettogether. Very spacious, well equipped and great location equally close to beach and shops. Great open fire, unexpected luxury of a sauna and extremely comfortable beds and sofas.

We were let into the property, on time, at 4pm on the Friday. Seafarers was all ready for us. Our party was four adults, four children and two dogs and ready for the holiday. The property is ten minutes walk away from Peasholme Park and fifteen minutes walk away from the North Bay Beach. If you enjoy walking the South Bay is easily walkable. There are several shops within easy walking distance. There is a supermarket within a five minute drive of Seafarers. The property is well equipped in every way.

We had a very comfortable and relaxing holiday. Seafarers was ideal for our needs. Very spacious there were only 4 of us , well equipped and in ideal location for all the Scarborough attractions. We parked the car and didnt need it again for the week. Like others have said, maybe be aware of how steep the stairs are. This would not work for those people whose mobility is restricted. Not an issue for us though. Would happily return in the future.

Andrew

Great location to explore Scarborough and surrounding areas! Very spacious and well equipped house to stay in for a large group of people. Nice decor and comfy beds. Good sized bedrooms, bathroom and the sauna was a bonus. Although there was only on street parking available, it was never a problem to find a space for two cars. The only issues were the beds weren't set up as we requested and also the stairs were very steep especially the upper staircase we feel that the house listing could benefit from mentioning this as it might not be as suitable for people with any mobility issuesyoung childrenelderly. Thanks for the enjoyable stay

Anne-marie

Pros Spacious house, loved the master bedroom spacious and extra large bed, all beds comfy, good to have all double bedrooms, no problem with parking appreciated permits included, kitchen well equipped, information folder was appreciated, convenient positionlocation within easy access to Peasholm Park, etc. Management company were always available and provided timely response to our calls. Cons Called out three times due to radiators not working problem with boiler pressure plumber visited on last call out. When heating on, attic family bedroom got too hot, as opposed to rest of house, but probably not much can do about that as heat rises. Both bathrooms next to each other on first floor and, in our opinion, would have preferred a downstairs toilet in place of a sauna area off kitchen. Staircases steep for elderly and young children probably can't be helped in older houses. Outside patio area was a bit grubby tables not wiped over and decking not swept. We had asked for one of bedrooms to be set up as double however still two twin beds on arrival but was resolved on day two, also asked for cot to be set up however we found this in a cupboard and resolved ourselves. House wifi was poor. General phone reception was poor not owners fault.

Barbara

Perfect choice for a weekend away with my friends. Too many places have very unequal bedrooms, at Seafarers we all had a doubleking size each or the option of twin rooms. This is a big plus for groups of friends. Nice central location, quiet street and close to an excellent fish & chip shop! A couple of minor niggles, but nothing major and would certainly consider staying here again if we needed somewhere with four bedrooms.

Beautiful house, had 2 holidays there now

A very comfortable, clean and well equipped house but no oven gloves. The location was good for access to Peasholm Park, cafs and the north bay beaches. Onstreet parking was a bit tight but there was always a space nearby. We really enjoyed our stay here and would come again.

A fabulous property. Far bigger and better than expected. The rooms are luxurious with high quality bedding and utensils. All the decor has been very well thought out, every single room is lovely. The open fire was a bonus in October, and the sauna was a great success with the family. A great open entertaining house which was fabulous for the 6 of us and a baby. We have stayed in many properties in Scarborough but this is by far the best one. The beds were so so comfortable, and spotlessly clean, we didnt want to get out of bed. The kitchen is very well equipped, absolutely everything you could need. The sofas too were very comfy. The court yard was perfect for our dog. Everyone had a great time and all have agreed we will definitely return. 10 out of 10.

This is my second time staying at this fabulous house. It is in a great location for everything, very near to peasholm park and north bay. It is lovey and comfortable and nice and clean and finished off to a high standard. Cant wait to come and stay again and would recommend this property to anyone coming to stay in scarborough.

Can't fault the place at all, great big comfy beds and lots of space to hang out. Kitchen facilites were great with sharp knifes and pots big enough to cook for large groups. The addition of a new nintendo switch console was an added bonus.

All the family enjoy the house there was 7 of us. The beds were very comfy. The only thing it needs is a washing machine . And hook in the small bathroom so you could hang up your towel .

Sophie

Please think about adding curtains to the attic bedrooms. Also we were a little disappointed that there was no ironing facilities. Overall we really enjoyed staying in the house it was lovely.

Victor

Everything was immaculate. Owner to possibly upgrade the courtyard and put grasspebblessand bank to make it more dog friendly

Kathleen

Lovely home, beds bathroom clean, however, issues with areas being dusty, dirty handrail, draws in large bedroom had sticky substance in it, lampshade over dinning table full of cobwebs.

We had a lovely stay at Seefarers. The house is gorgeous and full of character, lots of space for 8 of us. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils, pans, crockery, etc and the sauna is a lovely addition, very relaxing. The only thing I would say is the back yard could do with being jetwashed as there's moss all over the decking and table so it's not pleasant to sit outside. The location is perfect, Peasholm Park is a stones throw and there's lots to do there, we loved the dragon boat pedalos. North Bay Beach was lovely in the daytime but most things were closed at night, still worth a visit. We also had a ride on the steam train to the sealife centre which the kids loved. South Bay beach is only 15 minutes walk away and it was very busy but still enjoyable, much like the more traditional English seaside. The kids loved the amusements and fair and you could get decent meals from various cafes, bars and chip shops there. The house was the perfect base to visit all these from. We would definitely recommend a stay here, lovely!

The house is very spacious and clean and comfortable. The bedding and towels were immaculate. Very convenient for Peasholme Park and the beach. The only criticism would be the patio area which hadnt been cleaned. The tables and chairs and decking were dirty and whole area needed a good sweep. However house was lovely.

Excellent home. Beautiful decor. Excellent sleeping areas. Fabulous location for accessing the north bay and also into town and over to the South Bay. Would highly recommend and plan to revisit.

The house is really beautiful and beautifully furnished. It is fully equipped with everything we could have needed. Will definitely be staying here again

The Seafarers at Christmas was brilliant the whole family loved it. Could not fault the property, it was excellent. All the rooms are tastefully decorated, & the beds are extremely comfortable. Loved the open fire which was lovely on Christmas Day traditional. Two of our party used the sauna & thought it was great, especially linking their music playlist from their mobile phone & relaxing. Location is ideal for North Bay Peasholm Park in particular. Highly recommend a stay at this property. Thanks for the welcome pack, xmas treats & xmas tree, lovely touch.

Gareth

Only two minor gripes we could have dome with some dishwasher tablets and more toilet paper!

Beautiful accommodation and very clean. Kids loved exploring all the rooms which were perfect for their stay. Host was in contact day of arrival and was very helpful. Great location for North and South beaches and right next to the park and local shops. Would definitely stay there again Thanks for

Such a great stay. Beautiful house in a great location. Clear communication from the owner and everything we needed including.parking passes and MarioKart.

Richard

It was lovely to be the first guests at Seafarers and to be greeted with a pristine property. The accommodation is very good with large comfortable bedrooms and a pleasant large living area and kitchen. The owners have obviously put a lot of thought and effort into equipping and furnishing the property. Seafarers is ideally located about 10 15 minutes walk to the centre of Scarborough, with a further 10 minutes to the attractions and beach at South Bay, whilst Peasholm Park and North Bay are a similar distance in the opposite direction. Our only negatives about the property are very much issues of personal choice. Our party included 3 children between the ages of 6 and 10 and we really missed not having a washing machine we would have happily sacrificed the dishwasher for a washer to help clean sandy costumes and beach towels etc. We thought that the sauna was a nice usp but found we couldn't heat it to more than 40 degrees and it didn't feel overly hot and felt that a utility room andor downstairs cloakroom would have been better use of the space. Overall we had a very pleasant stay at Seafarers and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a family holiday in Scarborough.
