A wonderful, small hotel run by a lovely couple, who are friendly and welcoming. Rooms are spacious with plenty of storage with fab modern bathrooms. A lovely bar with a fab atmosphere in the evening - tasty small evening menu and great breakfasts in the morning served by the lovely Angela. Can't say one bad thing about the hosts or the hotel.....Worth 5 stars, next time we visit Scarborough we wouldn't stay anywhere else now.
