  • "Absolutely perfect for our family weekend away together."

    We all loved the house and it was so comfortable and warm. The house had everything we needed with plenty of space for us all. The additional garage/games room was brilliant for the kids and for us adults too. Huge lovely outdoor space and wonderful to see a baby deer strolling around in the garden. I would highly recommend a stay in this house, we had a day out in Whitby, a day out in Robin hoods bay and a day enjoying the Scarborough coastline. All of these places were easily accessible.

  • "Wow, wow, wow!"

    ! What a fabulous holiday home! Spotless, spacious, well equipped and so comfortable. It exceeded our expections. The room overlooking the garden was fantastic, just perfect for relaxing and the games room was a big hit too. The location was perfect, we used it as a base to visit Whitby, Robin Hood's Bay, Scarborough and Bridlington and so many other places close by. It was perfect for our family's needs and we would thoroughly recommend staying here. We hope to return soon. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your beautiful home.

    Thank you so much for this wonderful review. We are delighted you have found the house to your liking and look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Mrs White Property Owner

  • "For 6 adults and with 4 young children this was perfect."

    Weather was not good so could not get benefit of the big garden but enough space inside to keep everyone happy. Interior very high standard and spotless, parking on photo looks much larger than is but we comfortably parked 3 SUVs. Would recommend.

    Thank you for your review and glad you were happy with the house, hopefully if you return the weather is better next time and you can enjoy the garden. Property Owner

  • "Riverside House is superb, spacious and spotless."

    It is approx 15 min walk from Peasholm park, 5 minutes from the nearest pub and less than 10 min from Tesco. The house was immaculate and welcoming with a large, well equipped kitchen. All the bedrooms were a good size, modern and tastefully decorated with comfortable beds. The outside area would have been lovely if the weather had been warmer. The pool / table tennis was well used too. The check in & departure times are ideal. Our party of 8 all thoroughly enjoyed staying at Riverside house and would love to return again.

    Hi Susan, Thank you so much for your lovely review. I am pleased you enjoyed your stay and we would love to welcome you back, hopefully next time in a warmer month so you can enjoy the outside space and beautiful coastline Mrs White ( owner) Property Owner

  • "We have had a lovely stay at Riverside House."

    The accommodation was second to none, the beds were so comfortable and the different areas of the house were fantastic! I would like to mention a couple of items that we feel should be provided that weren’t, a second tea towel, hand soap in all the bathrooms, oven gloves. Also, we only noticed this because we had to strip all the beds, which we didn’t agree with, there were no pillow protectors on, which I think should be standard.

    Hi Caroline, thank you for your review and we are glad you enjoyed your stay at Riverside House. We have taken your comments on board, we hadn’t realised but the laundry hadn’t sent the oven gloves back but we have now purchased a spare set and the house now has more tea towels and the hand soaps have been replaced and pillow protectors are on order. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Thanks Property Owner

    It was big enough to house 10 of us comfortably and it had more than everything we needed. We will certainly be returning. It is a 15 minute stroll to the beach and was a lovely pre Christmas family break. Thank you so much.

    It’s very spacious for a family or friends getaway, as well as very homely. Everything was so clean, the beds are super comfy and the showers are brilliant! We made use of all the games they had to offer and will definitely be returning in summer to make use of the huge garden space.

    Thank you so much for your great review. I love to hear that our visitors have enjoyed their stay. We look forward to welcoming you back in the summer. ☺️ Mrs White ( owner) Property Owner

  • "We loved our week in the holiday home."

    Spacious and modern and clean. Had everything we needed and bonus of fabulous WiFi to keep the teenager happy. I loved the garden seeing the squirrels, pheasant and a deer one morning running through the garden was lovely. I have already been looking to book again and friends on my social media have been asking where it was we stayed as it looked perfect. It's a lovely less busy but with enough to access area of scarborough. Perfect if you drive or to walk as we did a lot. Definitely will be returning

    Emma Thank you so much for your lovely review. So pleased you spotted a deer, we are very lucky to have a couple visit the garden, and we know how important wifi is as we have 3 children. We would love to have you back again and thank you for recommending to friends. Lee-Ann White ( owner) Property Owner

  • "I ACTUALLY SLEPT WELL!"

    !!! This statement is so important to me because I never sleep well in other beds. Beds, pillows and linen are of great quality and comfortable. Android TV's in all the double rooms! First world modern problems huh? This really helps, especially for someone like me who's mind is constantly racing. I get to channel my thoughts and go straight to sleep. Great for the kids also when getting ready in morning and night. The whole house just screams comfort, luxury and tranquility! The garden ugh! What a garden it is. Enough showers for everyone and that bathtub! One could go to sleep in that bathtub and wake up a relaxed raisin. A fun filled garage stocked with beach toys, Pool table which Doubles as a table tennis.... Table oh and a washing machine. One thing I hate, is you come to properties like this and greeted with an undertake micro fridge with a freezer drawer. NOT THIS PLACE! Large American style fridge freezer and pantry to accommodate ALL your groceries. No query, random, useless decorative items randomly placed either. You can tell upon arrival that this house was designed and decorated with taste and comfort in mind. Fantastic location with easy access into Scarborough. Only little feedback I'd recommend is adding blinds to the windows to add another layer blocking light from coming in. This is easy enough with the beautiful large window bays. I LOVED THIS PROPERTY, we all did and can't wait to come back!!!!

    Hi Claire, Thank you so much for your outstanding review. We are very happy that you loved all the aspects of the house that we hoped our guests would. I am pleased to hear the children enjoyed the garage and that you relaxed and slept well. It sounds like you had a wonderful stay. Thank you for the suggestion to add blinds in addition to the curtains. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Mrs White ( Owner) Property Owner

  • "Property was very spacious, spotlessly clean, beautifully furnished and well equipped."

    No complaints whatsoever. We loved staying at Riverside Hiuse. Thank you . I would just like to offer a suggestion - I think more coasters are needed to help prevent people putting hot cups etc on the tables. Also I couldn’t find a frying pan. These comments are not complaints. We had a lovely time. Thank you.

    Hi Susan Thank you so much for your wonderful review, I am pleased you enjoyed your stay and hopefully you will return again. Thank you for your comments they are very helpful as the property is new, we had included a wok but we will ensure a frying pan is added also, along with some more coasters. Thanks again.

  • "We were the first people to stay in Riverside House."

    It has been beautifully refurbished and the fixtures and fittings feel luxurious. Our favourite area is the modern extension and we spent both evenings we were stayed in there just relaxing. The younger members loved the pool table in the garage. The house is about 15 minutes walk from the Sealife Centre and there is also a pub serving food just a few minutes walk.

    Thank you for your lovely review, we really appreciate your feedback. We are pleased you found the property comfortable and enjoyed relaxing in the sunroom. Property Owner

The property

Riverside House is a stylish holiday home, set on the outskirts of the popular seaside town of Scarborough, North Yorkshire.

Perfect for a gathering of family or friends, this spacious property has everything you need for a self-catering break, while being within easy reach of Scarborough's attractions and beach, and North Yorkshire's many attractive towns and villages.

Off-road parking greets you on arrival, before stepping into an open-plan living space, where you can dine at the table for 10, unwind in front of the woodburning stove, or simply admire the views from the bright and airy snug area.

When hunger strikes, the kitchen has everything you need to whip up a family dinner, including an American-style fridge/freezer and a handy dishwasher.

Making your way through the property, a door leads out to a convenient ground-floor shower room, perfect after a day at the beach.

From here, the garage/games room can provide you with your evening entertainment; why not unleash your competitive side with a game of pool or table tennis?

After a fun-filled day, climb the stairs to the first floor where five bedrooms lie; three king-size and two twins, each with storage for your belongings, and a tasteful décor invite you to rest your eyes.

Finishing off the interior of Riverside House is a bathroom with a gorgeous freestanding bath to soak in, along with another shower room so there is plenty of room to get ready for a day out.

Externally, the multilevel garden leaves little to be desired with furniture for dining alfresco, a lawn for games, and ample space to savour the warmer months.

The coastal town of Scarborough is bursting with things to do, all year around; avid golfers may want to spend an afternoon at Scarborough North Cliff Golf Club, animal lovers may want to explore the SEA LIFE centre, and walkers of your group can wander the Cleveland Way path.

In the heart of the town, you can also find an array of pubs and eateries for the nights you just don't feel like cooking, as well as a variety of beaches and fish and chip shops for a quintessential seaside break.

Follow the coastline up to the iconic town of Whitby, known for its dramatic abbey, gorgeous architecture, and the famous 199 steps.

Further afield, venture into the city of York for more shopping and dining options, or to the North York Moors National Park for walking and cycling in abundance.

Bring your loved ones to Riverside House for a break you'll remember for years to come.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £600.
