YOUR LOCAL HOLIDAY GUIDE
Things to do in Scarborough
North and South Bays
Give yourself time to explore both sides of the resort. Decide which bay you want to use most before choosing accommodation or planning each day's transport.
The castle headland
Scarborough Castle makes the headland a destination in its own right. Check access, opening arrangements and the climb before including it in a mixed-age outing.
A day around town
Combine a promenade walk with a town visit rather than trying to fit the whole resort into one afternoon. Keep an indoor option for changeable coastal weather.
Local shops, food & places to browse
Town-centre shopping gives you a different choice from the seafront's food and leisure outlets. Think about grocery stops and where to leave the car before heading down towards the beach.
Planning your holiday in Scarborough
Scarborough has hills as well as promenades. Check the actual route between parking, your chosen beach and the centre if steps or gradients will be difficult.
Choosing where to stay
Park locations around the resort vary. Ask which bay is easiest to reach and whether public transport is a realistic option from the entrance.
Before you book, check the advert’s address, sleeping arrangements, park facilities and any extra charges with the owner. Use the search filters for features such as decking, a hot tub or a washing machine, and park facilities such as a pool or clubhouse.
