There’s room for all ten of you (and your four-legged friends) to pile into this family-friendly townhouse, set in the heart of charming Scarborough, and just a hop, skip and a jump from the beach. Pack your bucket and spade for days along the coast – there are four sandy bays to choose from here. But our vote goes to your nearest, North Bay, with its golden sands, chalet-lined promenade, and, tucked away in the corner, the Sea Life Centre. And for a spot of culture, the 300-year-old Scarborough Castle is just a short walk away. Back home, this three-storey, newly renovated Victorian townhouse is immaculately presented throughout. Kick off your sandy shoes in the inviting entrance hall and make your way into the vast living spaces. While your nominated chef rustles up dinner in that made-for-action kitchen, kids will be kept busy in the dedicated playroom right next door, complete with a flat-screen TV, PlayStation 4, and books aplenty. Then all retreat into the cosy separate sitting room to hunker down for film nights or keep the night flowing with board games around the dining table – there's room for everyone.

About Whitby
Famously the setting of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, there’s something hauntingly beautiful about Whitby. The ruins of Whitby Abbey, set atop a windy hill overlooking the town, are just like a scene from a gothic novel. When the sun sets, ghost tours amble through the cobbled streets, revealing the town’s dramatic history. By day it’s all idyllic fishing village vibes, with a hint of Victorian holidays.
