    Cosy, comfotable,a really lovely holiday base. The owners had thought of everythingthat we might need! The welcome pack was over and above requirements -- fresh bread,teas coffee, cold drinks, etc. Facilities excellent-- a sauna and summerhouse in the garden will make an excellent stay in warmer weather.

  • "Cambridge Cottage is an amazing experience."

    It is warm and cosy and makes you feel at home. The attention to detail and memorabilia left us speechless. The welcome pack left by Bruce and Lizzy was way above expectations. Can't wait to go back. Definitely recommend Cambridge Cottage.

  • "An absolutely delightful cottage, located well for getting to other places."

    The host was amazing, left a lovely little breakfast tray for our arrival and made contact in case we needed anything. The cottage was tastefully well decorated and the adornments were amazing, took me back to my teen years with the Jackie magazines and olivetti typewriter. It was well equipped with everything we needed. My first time with Sykes, well impressed with this accommodation.

  • "Fantastic stay at Cambridge Cottage!"

    It’s a step back in time with so many nostalgic quirky bits and pieces…it was like revisiting my childhood :) Communication with the owners was top class, all necessary info was provided in advance by text and the thought and generosity that goes into the welcome pack really was on another level. The cottage is warm, cosy and comfortable. Plenty of hot water, a lovely open fire and good beds etc. If you choose to take advantage of the sauna in the summer house you won’t be disappointed, easy to operate infra-red type with music and lights as well :) Parking was fine right outside the cottage, we always found a space and never needed to use the pub car park over the road. As seasoned travellers who use all of the main holiday accomm booking platforms for stays throughout the UK, this was one of the most memorable trips in a while. It’s all positive and this really is down to the care and attention to detail from the owners, as well as the absolute originality of the cottage interior.

The property

Cambridge Cottage, a charming and historical residence with a 300-year legacy, nestles in the once-independent village of Falsgrave, now a quaint part of Scarborough, North Yorkshire.

This traditional cottage, brimming with original character and warmth, invites family and friends into its embrace, and two furry friends.

A stone's throw away lies a popular, family-friendly pub and eatery, enhancing the local appeal.

Conveniently situated, it's a mere stroll from both the train and bus stations and is ideally located to explore the alluring attractions of North and South Bay, including the renowned Open Air Theatre and the picturesque Peasholm Park.

The accommodation within Cambridge Cottage is thoughtfully arranged.

It features two bedrooms – a double and a twin – perfectly suited for a family getaway.

The twin beds can be joined if needed, and there's an additional put-me-up bed available in the twin room.

The bathroom consists of a bath with shower over, WC and basin set out in a neat design to get ready for the day in style.

On the ground floor, the living room exudes a welcoming atmosphere, complete with a dining area, desk, and a snug seating space around an original fireplace, which historically served as a blacksmith's forge when the house was a stable.

The efficient galley kitchen is well-equipped with a gas cooker, dishwasher, washing machine, and a Dutch dryer.

Ascending the steps to the outside, guests are greeted by a splendid garden featuring outdoor seating and a barbecue.

A highlight of the garden is the summer house, complete with a toilet, sink, second fridge, sauna, and a double sofa bed.

This charming addition allows the cottage to accommodate up to six guests during the summer months.

The enchanting ambiance of Cambridge Cottage has even witnessed marriage proposals, with a heartwarming track record of affirmative responses.

To enjoy all that Falsgrave has to offer, make Cambridge Cottage your base.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
