Cottage holiday rentals in Scarborough District

We had a fantastic stay at Tim’s place! The location was perfect – just around the corner from local amenities and right in the heart of town. It was also only about 10 minutes to the forest and around 30 minutes to Whitby, which made day trips really easy. The hot tub was spotless and ready to use as soon as we arrived, and we were greeted with a lovely bottle of Prosecco – such a thoughtful touch. Tim was an incredibly responsive and understanding host throughout our stay. We’ll definitely be back in the future

3 Railway Cottage is a fantastic base to explore the amazing beauty of North Yorkshire. The cottage is located a 20 minute walk from the centre of Pickering but is in a really quiet and private location. The only exception of course is the opportunity to wave at the heritage railway trains that pass at the back of the cottage a few times a day which is really amazing, especially if you wave from the comfort of the hot tub! I can’t recommend this location highly enough, it is a really comfortable and well equipped cottage in a fantastic location - what more could you ask for?

had a brilliant stay in this lovely little cottage. Nice and clean. Great hot tub and a good base location to explore various places along the coast. would recommend.

Lovely cottage in a great location. Walking the surrounding area from the house was great and very near to a pub and tearoom which both served great food. The hot tub was an added bonus!

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely holiday home which is in a stunning location overlooking Robin Hoods Bay. It really was an unbeatable location. Steve was a fantastic host, giving us all the information we needed about the property and location. He also left us some welcome extras in the fridge 😊 The property was clean and well presented, and the hot tub and snooker room were enjoyable extras. We would happily return to this beautiful, peaceful spot in the future.

Really enjoyable stay. Everything was perfect, and I would return if I were back in the area. The location was peaceful, private, and surrounded by beautiful nature — exactly what I was hoping for. The space was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway.

Lovely relaxing cottage with everything we needed. Very cosy and relaxing setting with great views from back windows. Enclosed garden for dog or children. Hot tub was a great perk which was well used by us. Rillington village within 10 min walk which had a small shop and a nice pub ( the fleece). Tips for other travellers The fleece in rillington has a nice garden of weather nice and the food was nice too and dog friendly Ham and cheese which is a 5 minute drive the food was very good and dog friendly too although probably too far to walk Lots of walks nearby, we went to dalby Forrest, mallyham spout in goathland and Levisham near Pickering New Connie’s Chinese in malton was also very good

We had the most beautiful stay — the cottage was peaceful, private, and instantly felt like home. Everything was spotless and smelt amazing, with such a lovely, calming vibe throughout. The decor was gorgeous, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. The hot tub was the perfect finishing touch for a truly relaxing weekend. The hosts went above and beyond with thoughtful details like fresh eggs in the morning and chocolates waiting for us on arrival. Communication was smooth and friendly from start to finish. You can really feel the care and effort put into every part of the stay. I’d absolutely recommend this place — it’s a little gem, and I’d love to return!

We’ve just returned from a fantastic stay and will definitely be returning. The house is beautiful and in a great location. Everything inside was clean and tidy and Jane (the host) was very prompt in communicating information about the location and check in. The house is very close to pubs, a restaurant and the beach. We didn’t bring our car down to the car park as we know RHB hill is very narrow, so we parked at the top of the bay and walked down. We have created some lovely memories here and will be back to create any more.

The coziest Airbnb I have ever stayed it. It was perfect!!!!! Lovely cottage. Cozy beds. Amazing bathroom. Great location. I would give this Airbnb 6/5 stars if I could.

Both Leisa and Rob were excellent hosts. The accommodation was beautifully presented with some nice welcoming touches. Would definitely like to return again. Neil and Linda

Lovely stay in this lovely comfortable and very cute little cottage in the depths of Robin Hoods Bay very near to the pubs, restaurants and the sea. The host Richard was very friendly and informative as was his lady who looked after the cottage who owns the fabulous little pet shop - check it out if you have a dog! Thankyou to Richard and Cath for leaving us a bottle of wine and some delicious border biscuits. Would definitely recommend this little cottage to others ❤️

This was my second stay - just as lovely as before, very clean, comfy and in a lovely location equally convenient for the town centre and the castle (up and down the hill). Clemmie is a great host - responsive and helpful.

We loved our stay here as a family with two young children (toddler and under 1) and a dog. The location was perfect, with a short nip up the hill into town and so close to the beach. The house had everything we needed - Joe & Sarah made it very comfortable for us and easy to travel by providing a high chair and travel cot. Parking on the road (in June) was easy during the week, had to wait a little longer for a space close by at the weekend (but we always managed to get one). We hope to return when we visit Filey again.

We found 'Just Beachy' a lovely place to stay, it is close to everything Scarborough has to offer, clean and tidy, beds were comfortable and we had everything we needed for a short break. Checking in was easy with the use of a lock box that was easily accessible. Would recommend.

It was a beautiful little home and we are so pleased we got the chance to stay there, really private with great views. The garden was enclosed so it was good to be allowed to let the dog out into the garden without a worry. It was really central so we could get to a lot of places and it really felt like home. 🩷

Saltwater cottage was absolutely fantastic! In the perfect spot near the harbour, it’s literally steps away from the best spot to watch the sun going down over the beautiful cliffs surrounding a Staithes. The cottage was squeaky clean and had everything we needed for a fab stay. Bed was super comfy and cosy shower was perfect and living room lovely to sit with a glass of wine. We ate in the Cod & Lobster and the Royal George both were great. Lovely cliff walk to Runswick Bay is also recommended. Staithes is a really stunning village and we’ll definitely be back to stay at Saltwater cottage!

Beautiful cottage in a great location for walking and visiting castles and national trust places. Would definitely recommend.

Lisa’s sweet cottage is a world away from the world in a spectacular rural village. The trails in the local area lead to other spectacular places of scenic charm and beauty. Lisa is a lovely, welcoming host with a talent for providing comfortable accommodation with an artful flair. Our stay will be a cherished memory!

Our 3rd stay here and we loved it. Its very peaceful, great walks from the doorstep, and two lovely pubs/restaurants within walking distance. as always Lynn keeps the house spotless, providing everything we could need for our stay. We loved our week there!

We’ve just returned from a fantastic week at Jane’s cottage in Robin Hood’s Bay and couldn’t be happier. The cottage is beautifully decorated and thoughtfully equipped with everything a family could need. It was the perfect base for exploring the coast – peaceful, cosy, and full of charm. Jane was a wonderful host, and everything was spotless on arrival. We felt right at home from the moment we walked in. Five stars all the way – we’ll be back as soon as we can!

Our second stay in this beautiful holiday home. Immaculately presented and lovely hosts. Great location, quiet but ideal for walkers and those on driving holidays. Also excellent for any one with mobility problems. Handy for Dalby Forest, Whitby, Pickering, Scarborough and the many lanes less travelled, fabulous scenic views and picturesque villages that North Yorkshire Moors has to offer. Also handy for the North Yorks Steam Railway. Our favourite and most perfect holiday haven and we will return again in the future.

The house in Robin Hoods Bay provided the perfect place for a family holiday. Ideally located in the lower bay near to the beach. Parking nearby a real bonus. It was more spacious than expected and characterfully decorated. The top floor boat bed was a delight. The well equipped kitchen allowed enjoyable meal preparation. Good quality bed linen and towels. If returning to RHB wouldn’t look to stay anywhere else.

First-class accommodation in a peaceful setting with great views. Fran and Andy could not have been more friendly and helpful. The brownies Fran left for us were the best we've ever tasted! We were lucky enough to see the owl on several occasions. Hope to return in the future.
