We stayed in the family room with our little girl. It was clean, well laid out and had everything we needed. Chris and Janey are lovely and nothing was too much trouble, even posting my daughter's favourite comforter that got left behind. We had a fantastic cooked breakfast each morning. We will definitely be back!

With a location overlooking Scarborough’s North Bay, Howdale is a quiet, welcoming seaside guest house. Free parking is possible on site, and free WiFi is accessible at the property.

Rooms at Howdale are en suite with a hairdryer and complimentary toiletries. Each room comes complete with WiFi, a flat-screen TV and a refreshment tray containing tea/coffee making facilities. There is a shared guest TV lounge for guests.

Travelled here for a few nights and picked Howdale for it's great location Situated 2mins from all the North Bay attractions, and being elevated from the promenade means it has great views. Although on the upper road, all the paths to it are relatively gentle, and give easy access for pretty much anyone The B&B is set over 4 floors with only stairs access. Louisa gave us a phonecall in advance to let us know this, incase we had mobility issues, and to confirm that our twin room selection was correct, before she put final confirmation and took money for the booking. Our 4th floor twin room was fairly small but the beds were decent sized singles. The room was en-suite. Cozy and perfect for a comfortable night. A TV, free fast WiFi and plenty sockets in the room mean it is well suited to the modern requirements. Our rear facing room gave us great views over the town & beautiful countryside Breakfast is taken in a front facing room with great views towards the North Bay and Castle. Breakfast choice was good, full English, cereal, yogurt etc and plenty tea, coffee+ toast too. Louisa has obviously honed her skills well and runs a slick operation Louisa is also a very affable host, who makes you feel very welcome and will help you with all your needs. Lovely personality to chat to, and takes as much time as necessary to give you the info you require On our last day, after we booked out, we were not travelling until the afternoon so Louisa gave as a place to store our bags and an outside key that let us collect them when we were ready to move on. Howdale B&B has a character that is in keeping with a British seaside town. It retains the look of its era, but had been brought up to date to suit modern life requirements. Not a swanky London affair, but nice, immaculately clean, well presented and friendly. Perfect for a relaxing seaside stay. We will use Howdale again in the future

    Fabulous location and epic hotel. However it’s a budget hotel - you get more than what you pay for I think but don’t expect 5 stars. My bed was comfortable and my room was en suite. The hotel is a grade II* listed building. The central tramway to the beach is next door. Entertainment 6 days/week. Coffee in the Empress Suite was better than expected. There are NO asylum seekers staying here, despite newspaper comments.
