Railway House Reviews

Sharon

We have had the most amazing stay at the Railway House. The house is finished to a high standard and so comfy. The host was so helpful with any questions we had & a lovely hamper was there when we arrived with all essentials. So happy we stayed and cant wait to visit again next year. Thank you again for a wonderful stay

Just back from a fantastic weekend with 22 of us celebrating my Hen Weekend! The only comment made over weekend was more mirrors or even a couple of long mirrors but that was it . It had everything we needed.

We celebrated 50th birthdays at your property and were blown away with the size,decor,facilities etc. All the guests were extremely happy with their rooms and our stay was perfect. We would definitely recommend you or even visit again.

Melanie

Absolutely fabulous house, easily accommodated all 19 of us. Ages ranging from 2 to 80, it catered to everyone's needs. Gorgeous rooms with plenty of entertaining space and a table for all of us to gather around for a meal. Being in the centre of Scarborough, we had a lovely time and would definitely recommend this accommodation, if you're wanting a stay with a touch of luxury. Fantastic place

15 people used the property to celebrate a70th birthday. Found the place to be very clean and comfortable made use of most of the facilities didn't do a lot of cooking or clothes washing as we were only there 3 nights. The ladies in the group felt there could be more mirrors and hairdryers but overall an excellent venue. So good we rebooked before leaving.

We had a group of 20 ladies for a girly weekend, as we do every year. The quality and standard of the cottage was head and shoulders above other cottages we have stayed in. The booking process was seamless, and contacting the owner was very simple. The owner was very approachable and welcoming. The owner went above and beyond by not only providing 3 towels per person for the bathrooms but also extra towels provided for the hot tub. It was a really nice touch to have a hamper waiting for you when you arrive, as well as basic supplies like bread, milk, dishcloths and tea towels, as well as dishwasher tablets, etc. There is enough seating round the dining table with plenty of space, as well as plenty of room in the two sitting rooms. The bedrooms were spacious with comfortable, clean beds and the decoration throughout was very modern. We got home yesterday and have already contacted the owner to book again for our trip next year!

Cheryl

We had a lovely stay in the house. The house was spotless on arrival the cleaners do an amazing job. The kitchen is very well equipped. Hot tub fantastic, we the family of grandparents, parents and children had more than enough space to be together or to have space. Close to the town, you really couldnt be in a better location. Thank you for the memories we have made.

We have had a fabulous weekend staying in the Railway House, it is absolutely stunning! Before we arrived the owner informed us the Hot Tub was currently out of use but he tried his very best to get this fixed for us and kept us informed throughout. The only thing we felt was missing was a full length mirror being an all girl group, but other than this we wouldnt change a thing!

Fantastic property finished to a very high standard . All rooms are bright, airy and spacious and plenty of bathrooms to accommodate our group of 14 plus a baby. The railway line at the bottom of the garden and the proximity to the station may put some people off but you cant hear the trains at all in the house. Jamie, the owner is very amenable and was quick to resolve any issues we had . Great location , short walk to the sea front , plenty of places to eat close by and 2 supermarkets only 5 minutes walk away Would highly recommend this property to any large group

Excellent amazing property as per listing. Great hospitality and welcome generous welcome pack and friendly, readily available host when needed nothing too much trouble. Maintenance and cleaning perfect cleaning and fresh linen provided half way through 2 week stay this was really appreciated, excellent and non intrusive. A fantastic stay for big group of family and friends. Happily stay again.

We couldnt have picked anywhere better to celebrate my husbands 70th birthday. Our children, their partners and grandchildren 21in all we all loved the house! It was absolutely perfect in every way. The amazing space! The beautiful decor! The facilities! Everything perfect!! The owner Jamie was extremely friendly and helpful. He obviously goes that extra mile to ensure that his guests feel welcome and ensuring the stay in this beautiful house is stress free and relaxing. Thank you Jamie your house is perfect! We highly recommend this accommodation and look forward to staying there again!

Amazing and beautiful property . Helpful and friendly host which goes a long way to making the stay even better. Would definitely recommend to anyone for luxurious and perfect weekend.

Elaine

Fantastic well equipped property in a great location. A very welcoming and helpful owner who was available at all times to answer queries .

Hannah

The property itself is gorgeous and very conveniently located to access the town centre and sea front. Unfortunately, the owners false accusations of damage means that I cannot leave a fully positive review. Fortunately, I have photo and video evidence to prove that the damage was there on our arrival so if you do decide to stay here I strongly suggest taking images of everything immediately on arrival in case you are accused of damage like us. I wouldnt recommend staying based on the negative communication and lack of professionalism from the owner unfortunately.

Catherine

We cannot rate this property any higher, it wasis amazing and would highly recommend for any large groups looking for quality accommodation. On arrival the standard was immediately obvious, so clean and extremely well maintained. The kitchen was well equipped for the number of guests, with everything thought of. The welcome hamper was beautiful and very much appreciated. The location of the property made it so easy to actually walk down to the front promenade even with children! The group enjoyed the stay so much we will be returning next year!!

Carima

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful house. Everything is finished to a high standard and plenty of space for a big group. We stayed as a family and there were 21 of us. The owner Jaime was on hand whenever we needed help and made sure we had the best stay possible. Would highly recommend this house. Just need a few long mirrors and a tv in the smallest room. Thanks again we had an amazing time.

Caroline

Amazing house and brilliant location. Very clean and well equipped. Would definitely recommend.

The house is stunning both inside and outside. There is plenty of room for at least 6 cars small to medium size and even though its down a side street once youve driven in you could be anywhere. The house backs on to the railway but you barely hear the trains, obviously a big hint in the name

Natalie

Absolutely beautiful house. Had everything we needed for a lovely weekend with friends. Would highly recommend. Thank you.

Joanne

Had a lovely stay with the girls for a hen party. The property is maintained beautifully, clean and spacious. The hot tub was lovely and maintained its heat. Plenty of towels provided. Would recommend for a nice break away

Fabulous spacious house. Spotlessly clean and very well equipped. Large bedrooms with comfortable beds and linen. Plenty of seating area in both lounges and around the large kitchen table. Hot tub was lovely. Would definitely recommend.

Had a fab stay this weekend, there was a group of 15 of us that stayed and it couldnt have suited us better. Loads of room for us all and plenty of space for games, chilling out etc. The house was so clean and modern, we literally did not want to leave. Already going to book up for next year!

Jackie

Cannot recommend enough. . Absolutely amazing house, not to be missed! Just filled this stunning house with 22 of my family and enjoyed a fantastic, unforgettable 4 nights. The photos do not do it justice.. The place is huge! Right in the heart of everything and parking for lots of cars. Every room beautiful and finished to a high standard, with quality carpets, fixtures and fittings throughout. Host has put a lot of effort in and gone above and beyond to make sure you have a brilliant stay with an array of amenities, games, tvs everywhere!, table football, hot tub, even 22 chairs fit round one dining room table!! Great value, great fun, great memories! Thanks Jamie for making us so welcome, checking all ok at the start and again upon departure not to mention the welcome gifts .. the huge picnic basket hamper!! Had the best time and already planning our return. Cant fault it..

We had a very good stay, the one problem we had early on with the heating hot water was fixed very quickly by the owner who was very friendly. The welcome hamper was a nice addition. A property within easy reach of many Scarborough amenities.

Jessica

Beautiful house.

Absolutely amazing! ! the house is breathtaking, the owner has gone above and beyond in providing all that is needed and to the highest of spec. The house is situated in the heart of Scarborough and within walking distance to everything. We stayed at the house this weekend 30th June to 2nd July for my daughter 40th birthday we had the best time at this beautiful house. There was even a luxury essentials hamper waiting for us in the kitchen when we arrived. I am not a big review writer but when a place deserves it, this definitely does. Thank you Jaime for providing us ladies with a top class accommodation 10 out of 10

We had an incredible stay at Railway house for my sisters hen party. Jaime was really helpful with all the check in details and was really accommodating and left us a lovely hamper on arrival. The house was absolutely stunning and had everything we needed. Would definitley come back again. Thanks Jenny

We had a wonderful stay at Railway House, everything was just ideal and the owner simply wanted us to have a good time. Very clean, very comfy, loads of space and all the facilities you might need. We all loved it and would love to return.

Wow, what a beautiful house! We had a great weekend staying with family to celebrate my 40th. A very friendly owner and a lovely hamper on arrival. There was absolutely everything we needed, even for 20 of us! We will definitely be back thank you

Amazing weekend at Railway house! I booked the property for a hen party of 18 women and everyone loved it! There was a lovely welcome pack at the house waiting and Jaime checked in on us to ensure we were happy with everything and was very supportive with anything we needed. Brilliant place, great location, more than we could have asked for. Thank you very much

Meghan

Great stay. Great host. Couldn't fault it. We were so impressed with everything definitely want to book another trip!

Jackie

We had wonderful weekend at the Railway House. It is an amazingly spacious property and it accommodated our needs perfectly. Very central, once parked our vehicles we didn't need to move them during the weekend.The host was easy to contact and very friendly. It was just what we needed for our family to be together and enjoy each other's company. Wouldn't hesitate to return. You will not be disappointed.

A very immaculate house, facilities were perfect for our celebrations.

This house is absolutely beyond stunning. 17 of us stayed here for 30th birthday celebrations and had the best time. The place was immaculate, decorated perfectly and had everything we could possibly need and more they really had thought of everything! Every room in the house is just beautiful. The welcome basket was a lovely touch, and Jaime was a phone call away for anything we needed whilst there. We cant thank you enough for the most fantastic weekend.

Ayesha

Railway House is an excellent place to stay, we stayed as a Large family of 22 to celebrate my Son's 18th Birthday The property is superb and has everything you need and more The facilities are excellent and added bonus of the Hot Tub made for a great weekend away. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for an impressive place to stay in a large group. The owner was easily contactable if we had any problems which we didn't but that was good to know they were there if needed. Had a brilliant weekend in an awesome property Thanks

All 18 of us loved our stay at the Railway Cottage in Scarborough. Perfect location and great setting for 40th Birthday weekend. Jamie was a great host, from checking we had arrival and checked in to the arrival hamper for us. Would definitely recommend for a group staycation!

Georgia

Had an amazing weekend at the Railway House was so nice to be so close to the shops and beach etc, great location! All facilities were great and the house is truly amazing. Would definitely recommend for a big group getaway. The owner is lovely and so helpful for any queries

Absolutely fantastic in every way. We couldn't fault this beautiful property if we tried, everything was wonderful, the beds were incredibly comfortable and we all had a brilliant time thank you!

A fantastic well equipped property! So well finished and great for larger groups! The owner was fantastic aswell checking in with us to make sure everything was ok and when I had a query about the hot tub he contacted me immediately to help! Only one point of note I would say is the small toilet down next to the back door could do with a blind in the window or frosted glass.

Catherine

Perfect! Everything we needed and more. Every room is immaculate and everything has been thought of. Having two large lounges with enough seating was brilliant, when people werent happily sitting and chatting in the kitchen. Every bedroom was lovely and super comfy and all the bathrooms were amazing. The hot tub and the table football were enjoyed by everyone. The house just had so much room and perfect for mixed ages. I could put the littlest ones to bed without any worry about them being woken up and everyone else could still enjoy the evening. Jamie was brilliant, all information you need for the house is there and if needed you can message him and get a really quick response. Having parking for everyone is also a big plus! Would highly recommend.

Family tickets cost £46.80 but the Tourist Information Centres in Scarborough, Whitby or Filey often offer fantastic discounts.

Sea Life Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP

A great place to both play and learn we think the Betton Farm Visitor centre is great value for money. Check out their website for the latest opening times and admission costs. Some of the highlights of the day might include meeting Sofie the Shetland Pony and Henry the goat, as well as the pot bellied pigs called Porky and Hammy.

Located in Harwood Dale Village, North Yorkshire we think this attraction makes a superb family day out and couples will also enjoy the nature walks in the area. There are 6 nature walks in total surrounding the farm so walkers and lovers of the outdoors will be in their element. Some of our favourite walks include the Spring Flowers, Pond and Village walk which takes around 35 minutes, and the Meadow and Trees walk which takes one hour.

Flamingo Land - YO60 7EW

about 16 Miles

Situated in Malton in North Yorkshire this has to be one of our favourite family days out. It's a theme park and zoo all in one stretching over a massive 400 acres. With thrilling rides for the very daring like Cliff Hanger, Corkscrew and Kumali, there are also more gentle rides for the little ones such as Frog Hopper and Helitoys. Family fun attractions include the 4D cinema, the lost river ride and the Little Monsters Den of Mischief. Check out their website for seasonal events which take place throughout the year and you can also gain more information about the zoo. Flamingo Land is a resort as well as a theme park so you can also book accommodation there.
