We booked for two nights and eventually left after only one night as we were not happy. We felt that the description of the accommodation contained an element of creative licence and the photography on the site had too been imbued with a level of very clever creativity. While the accommodation can best be described as comfortable and rambling, it is not what we had expected and we cut our losses and left. The house is not on the beach, but set back a block from the beach-front parking lot.
On the positive side, the hosts were very responsive to our communications, very accommodating in allowing an early check-in, the house was clean and everything else described was as expected. Scarborough is a beautiful place and we can highly recommend 'The Hub' - a restaurant within easy walking distance that we visited for a memorable lunch. The house will, we are sure, bring much happiness to many guests in future, but we will be much more careful in scrutinising our selection.
