  • "What can I say?"

    Well lots actually! I’ll try to keep as brief as possible. As soon as we entered Valiant House, we knew we’d made the right choice. The house was spotless, it smelled lovely and everywhere is beautifully decorated for a smart and homely feel. The number of beds and bathrooms is fantastic and it feels nice and safe for the younger kids. Couldn’t fault our stay, all the party felt the same and we are missing it already. A real 10/10 choice and landlady couldn’t be more lovely or helpful!

  • "We stayed from the 17/10/23 until the 21/10/23 We came as a group of 5 from age 16-21 for my 20th birthday with family and friends House was honeslty incredible we all felt at home, Master bedroom was perfect for me and my partner and the two attic rooms were taken by the other 3 (one bad was a double and the other single) 10 min walk to the beach!"

    Lovely gesture was left on the kitchen table (box of scarbough fudge) We all loved our stay and cannot wait to book in the summer of 2024

  • "The property is close to Scarborough and is very welcoming with quality chattels."

    The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. Pippa, the host, is a great communicator, friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We really enjoyed staying at this property.

  • "Owner was very easy to contact and very friendly - the box of biscuits on arrival was a really nice touch."

    The house had a large kitchen and a nice outdoor seating area. Apart from the ensuite shower the whole house was very clean and had been thoughtfully decorated. The family bathroom would benefit from having a shower attachment added as the layout of bathrooms / bedrooms didn’t really work for our multigenerational family group. The house is well located in easy reach of north and South Bay although the street itself isn’t that pleasant with lots of dog mess and litter (nothing the owner can do about this). Unfortunately the house has some maintenance issues which need attention - broken door locks, kitchen cupboards coming off hinges, tv broken, lots of incredibly creaky flooring which you don’t expect in a modern house, broken toilet seat. We enjoyed our stay in Scarborough but probably wouldn’t return to this particular property due to the bathroom arrangements

  • "The home is a great place to stay and it’s positioning is perfect."

    15 minute walk from the beach, 5 minutes from the town centre, The only slight niggle would be to have a bigger TV. Mainly for those Rainy days. It’ was our 2nd stay at Valiant house and Pippa was so accommodating. We would come back and would recommend to friends

  • "House was lovely plenty of space for family very clean ,communication was good from Pippa."

    Only downsides for us was parking we had to park on another street at times then worried about getting ticket. We also had an issue with some young people whilst taking my granddaughter for a walk up the street they started throwing objects one hitting the pram unsure if the norm but teenagers abit rowdy in the area.Our last stay in Scarborough was up the opposite end which is much quieter however all that said we had a lovely break ,house is perfect and located well to explore.

  • "Fantastic house."

    Spotlessly clean. Really centrally located for both North and South Bays. Would be a bit cosy/squash for 7 adults to be sat comfortably in lounge and at kitchen table for long periods of time.. Would benefit from a second shower in main bathroom. Shame floorboards on 2nd and 3rd floor squeak so much. Didn't detract from our enjoyment of our time in the house and Scarborough.

    Very clean and tastefully decorated. The only thing I would say it needed was a shower above the bath especially as it caters for 7 people. Pippa was also very helpful.

  • "Everything was excellent, house is near to town center, very accessible, 5 minutes walking distance from the sea and most scarborough attractions."

    Very well equiped holiday house with four rooms, big kitchen, two bathrooms and above all beautifully decorated. I love it and so do my kids and my wife. The owner also is so much helpfull and knowledable she guided us to attractions of Scarborough. The best thing is when you reach the holiday house after long air flight and you find the owner kept a box of delicious cookies and milk in the fridge this wad very nice gesture. I will recommend this holiday house to every one considering a holiday in Scarborough.

The property

Resting within striking distance of the attractions and amenities of the bustling town of Scarborough, is the spacious, end-terrace property, Valiant House.

This heart-warming retreat is ideally positioned and is well-equipped for a large family holiday to the North Yorkshire coast.

This contemporary-style accommodation comes with four well-presented bedrooms, comprising of the following on the first floor, king-size double with an en-suite, a twin bedroom, a second-floor king-size and a second-floor single, designed to ensure a flexible sleeping arrangement.

Each bedroom has been finished with a refreshing colour scheme and ample storage and space to house your essentials during a week-long break.

After an action-packed day, look forward to spending sociable evenings within the spacious sitting room, where the elegant L-shaped sofa is situated in front of the TV, a great spot for you and your loved ones to gather and unwind.

Beyond here is the well-equipped kitchen/diner, which houses all the essentials you could possibly need to cater your own delicious evening meals that can be enjoyed at the well-presented dining table.

Alternatively, spend a moment or two on the rear patio, where during the summer months a spot of alfresco dining can be enjoyed whilst catching the final glimpses of sunshine.

However, if you don’t feel like cooking one evening, Scarborough houses a wide selection of pubs and eateries to choose from, as well as a number of shops that you can explore one afternoon.

In addition to the superb amenities, the town features a vast array of attractions to suit a group of all ages and tastes.

Younger guests will be delighted by the SEA LIFE centre and South Bay with its sandy beach, amusement arcades and ice cream parlours.

Adults will be delighted by the quieter North Bay Beach, the 12th century castle and the Japanese inspired Peasholm Park.

Further afield attractions include the historic seaside town of Whitby, walking on the North York Moors National Park or spending some time within the city of York.

Valiant House is a superb base for an action-packed holiday with the whole family.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
