• "A very comfortable cottage with wonderful views."

  Lots of extra touches added to comfort. The addition of a toilet on the second floor was an unexpected bonus. Central for everything, but also well equipped for staying in and enjoying the facilities of the cottage.

• "We really enjoyed our stay at this cottage."

  It is well looked after and equipped and the views are beautiful. It was a great base for us to travel around the area. We struggled to use one of the 4 parking spaces with the scratch cards and looked in the streets nearby to no avail. Instead we used the car park at the bottom of a lot of steps. This was free from 6pm to 9am. The cottage is accessed via 10 steps to the terraced houses and 3 steps to the property. This helped to make the views spectacular. We would definitely stay here again.

• "The holiday cottage was brilliant very clean everything that you needed for your stay ."

  The beds were extremely comfortable. The only two things I wished had been explained a little more in information was how difficult it can be at times to park and also the amount of steps or steepness of the steps ghat you had to climb when leaving and returning to the cottage . For someone such as me with bad knees and problems with walking it was quite difficult. It resulted in my husband taking me down and bringing me back in our car

  Dear Mrs Roscoe, Thank you so much for leaving feedback for our cottage, we are so pleased you found it clean, comfortable and well equipped. As you have found there are many steps and steep hills all across the old town area but this we find is a small price to pay for the elevated views you enjoy on reaching the cottage. We apologise that you found the steps too steep for your knees on this occasion. As with most seaside resorts in the summer the parking can be difficult at times, we provide parking scratch cards which are valid for on road parking for the whole of the old town. Parking is on a first come first served basis which can also be an issue for those with mobility issues and we apologise if this was not made clear enough in the description. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay at Coastwatch Cottage Nigel and Maxine Property Owner

• "Really comfortable cottage with excellent views, perfectly placed near the harbour in Scarborough."

  Glad we had gone by train as the parking spaces nearest the cottage were rarely available but there were spaces on nearby streets 5/10 mins away. Disappointed there was no welcome pack the owners said this was due to Sykes but we have been to other cottages since lockdown where they were available. Would definitely go back again

• "The cottage was cosy and welcoming, it was perfectly clean and fresh throughout."

  It's in the perfect location for trips to the beach or to the harbour no need for the car if you like to walk. although parking is an issue if you drive a large car we had to use the local carpark as there are only 4 spaces for the whole street and our car wouldn't fit there. The views from the cottage are stunning and it's very easy to pass an afternoon sat on the bench outside. There are a few quite steep steps to get up to the cottage this could be an issue if you struggle with mobility. We greatly enjoyed our stay and have already booked a return trip.

• "A perfect base for exploring all that Scarborough has to offer, and the views across the bay, town and harbour are breathtaking!"

  The cottage is beautifully furnished, although retaining its character and charm, the attention to detail with regards to a modern look, and facilities are second to none. The cottage is listed as sleeping six, but sometimes the actual space within cottages does not always provide adequate actual living space. This was not a problem with Coastwatch. There was plenty of room to sit in the dining room and the living room, and the kitchen was spotless and provided every kind of utensil, etc. for your stay. A small outside backyard accessed via the kitchen contains a washer and tumble dryer (all equipment is only a few months old). There really were no negatives, but considerations should be made with regards to guests' mobility access, as there are steps up to the property, and stairs within the cottage were steep ( although there was a bannister). Parking scratchcards were provided by the owner, and provided us with up to four days free parking in the A2 zones within Scarborough, but this is on a first come first served basis. We did mange to get parked, but otherwise there is a short/long stay car park located down some steps just off the harbour front, in front of the property (£8.00 for 24 hours). I'd advise people to visit this link with regards to the parking if you are unsure how they worked (as we were). https://www.scarborough.gov.uk/home/parking/hotel-guest-house-and-holiday-accommodation-scratchcards Scarborough was great, and we wouldn't hesitate to book Coastwatch again. Great correspondence with the owner, and some lovely touches such as Christmas decorations, a welcoming card, chocolates and Christmas crackers for our stay. Will definitely be revisiting - thank you for a great stay Nigel.
