Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Scarborough District

We booked this for friends to use for their honeymoon. Charles was very accommodating and helpful when booking and the space was just perfect. Particularly appreciated was the wood fired hot tub and lots of useful local information helping them to make the most of their stay.

Claudia’s place has been as wonderful as always. My wife and me have stayed here numerous times and has been equally comforting each time. Claudia advises on the tide times which is very helpful. Bramleys cottage is like home and have enjoyed every stay. Thanks Claudia❤️

5* Accommodation was spotless. Smelt clean and fresh as soon as you walked in the door. Lovely welcome pack included all the essentials. Lots of attention to detail and little extra touches which made the property feel like home. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you needed and more. Located just outside of Whitby but easy to travel in and around the area. Views from the front window were amazing Would highly recommend and would definitely book again.

We had a great stay and it was perfect for our needs. Spacious modern bedrooms, well equipped kitchen, very quiet. Plenty of parking on high street. The village shop and the nearby pub and cafe was an added bonus.

A perfect girls’ weekend getaway! We stayed at this lovely cottage for a relaxing girls’ weekend and couldn’t have asked for more. The property is beautifully presented and had absolutely everything we needed. The kitchen is spacious and well-equipped, perfect for cooking together, and the lounge and snug areas were cosy and comfortable for long chats and relaxing evenings. The beds were super comfy, and there was plenty of bathroom space for all of us. Just a 5-minute drive from charming Helmsley, the location was ideal. Lovely welcome gift was left for our arrival – thank you Helen. We would highly recommend this cottage and hope to return again soon!

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The space was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. We really appreciated the little touches that made it feel like a home away from home. The jacuzzi was lovely! The hosts were great at providing us with all the information we needed for a stress free check in/out and a perfect stay. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a mini break. Peacocks were a lovely surprise seeing them walk around the estate. Thanks again!

Had a great stay at Jamie's house, which is spacious and well equipped. It made a pleasant change to do linear walks and catch the bus back. X93/94 Scarborough to Middlesbrough via Whitby. Jamie's communication is excellent with clear instructions for check-in and recommendations of local places to eat and visit. We hope to visit again.

Fabulous stay in a lovely home. Everything you need is available for a comfortable “home from home” break. Easy check in, great location and only a short walk into Whitby and very convenient to visit other coastal towns. Amanda was a great host and was on hand if needed. Dog friendly with a secure courtyard to the back. Parking wasn’t an issue as there was plenty of space directly outside. We will definitely return!

We had an amazing stay. The apartment is beautiful with everything you need and plenty of parking. Lovely little village with a brilliant bakers and butcher. Walkable to Whitby along the Esk way or there is a bus and a train! Also very close to the moors for lots of country walks. Thoroughly recommend this little gem of a place!

This was our third stay in Brooklands Hideaway and it was a great as ever. If you are looking for a stay in Scarborough then it really is worth it. The flat is spacious, clean and we feel right at home. It is also just a short walk down to the beach and into town while also being tucked away from everything so is relaxing and quiet. The host is also very helpful and accommodating and check in instructions are very easy to follow.

Great Location, Great value and wonderful Host. This is perfect with having a little one being on the ground floor. Quick 5 minute walk and you’re straight down into the main stretch of Whitby. Would recommend

Garden Apartment was an oasis in the middle of old Scarborough town Everything exceeded expectations and we made good use of the private garden which was amazing Both were good hosts and very friendly

We had a great stay, it was everything we wanted for the weekend. Comfortable, clean and cosy. There's a little local shop nearby, garden centre. We walked into Whitby which took about an hour ish, nice walk. The first part is on main roads. We would definitely look at staying again.

Helen was very responsive and helpful. She met me at the property, gave me a quick tour of everything, and was literally next door in case I needed anything. Very friendly family, who greeted me every time I saw them, but also left me to do my own thing. There was everything I needed, and shops close by, and the beautiful coastline was walkable to.

We had a fantastic stay with Pete and sally there place is excellent, clean , ideally located for all the amenities Pete gave us very clear instructions on finding them how to get in plus where parking is, the views from across the road are amazing plus very romantic if like me you proposed to your girlfriend (she said yes!!🥰) would definitely recommend there apartment and proposing 🤣

The accommodation was spotless, cosy, super comfortable bed, across the road from a well stocked convenience store, in the middle of the village. Very close to the cafe’s and little shops. Very quirky, loved the tiny stairs but may not be so suitable for someone with mobility issues. We loved our stay but remember, this accommodation is over a pub, so you do get some residual noise especially when a microphone is being used, but nothing loud enough to disrupt peace or sleep, thank you for a great break

thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely apartment!! Right in the heart of Pickering.. perfect location, lovely host and well equipped well decorated apartment.. hope to return soon x

We have stayed at Theres’s apartment every January for at least 5 years and we love it. Theresa is a wonderful and friendly host and the apartment is amazing! Can’t wait to return!

That saying “The Pictures don’t do it justice” is exactly true for Diane’s apartment - the pictures looked beautiful but the reality is even better. Very clean and everything you need. Great location and such a beautiful town with friendly people - we got the train into York one day, the station was less than a 10 min walk (station cafe is AMAZING) - all in all a great stay and hope we can come back again soon - thanks Diane!

We stayed with Alison and John for goth weekend in April 2025. The apartment is amazing, there was everything you could ever had needed plus a lovely welcome gift too. The heated mirror in the bathroom was a good surprise! The location was perfect for all the happenings at goth weekend. Would definitely stay again if lucky enough to find it empty 🖤

Lovely little flat, walking distance to shops, bars and restaurants. Would highly recommend

Such a great apartment. We were both really happy with everything provided. We struggled to find anything wrong. I would be more than happy to stay here again.

Gorgeous flat right by the beach, plenty of trays/cutlery etc in the kitchen and huge towels provided. Host was very friendly and helpful. Completely stress-free stay.

Lovely apartment, comfortable and clean, everything you need for a self catering stay. Easy clear check in instructions and information from the hosts along with quick responses to our questions. We would return. Thank you for a lovely stay.
