What you'll enjoy

A quirk of history with stories to tell and new memories to make. An unexpected sight gracing the Spa Bridge at the gateway to South Cliff's Italian Gardens. Uninterrupted views of the beach, sea, and harbour. This is Scarborough’s famous landmark Spa Chalet. Now available as a superior luxury holiday let.

It’s a historic home captured by many artists on canvas and described by the Leeds Mercury as "having the finest views in England.” There is certainly none better of Scarborough’s South Bay than from the balcony. Offering up all year-round luxury for guests who demand the best and seek memory-making majesty.

There’s history in every room, brick, and balustrade, all laid to the exacting design specifications of Sir Joseph Paxton, designer of the world-famous Crystal Palace and Chatsworth House gardens. With the beach in front of you and Scarborough’s Italian Gardens adjacent, you have plenty of outside space to savour. 

The balcony offers up uninterrupted views out to sea. Look through the antique telescope and watch as the boats sail blissfully by. A place to experience the kiss of glass upon glass as you gather to toast the special occasion that perhaps has brought you all to this magical location. Or maybe you are here with friends, intent on enjoying al fresco breakfasts, lunches, or dinners to the backdrop of splashing waves.

Inside, the modern meets the traditional to deliver the exceptional. Original features and period furnishings ensure there’s no compromising quality, no hiding the glorious history.

The rooms are alive with character and resplendent with unique touches that match the location. This is a home that exudes style and invites relaxation. Feet sink into the quality carpet underfoot. Period beds in all five bedrooms guide guests into the serenity of dreamland night after night, while the open plan kitchen and dining area make preparing and enjoying meals a sheer pleasure.

Why not treat yourself to a soothing dip in the spa pool or unwind in one of the four sauna rooms? Keep in trim at the fully equipped gym or pamper yourself in The Aqua Spa lounge at our nearby partner hotel, located a short walk away. A full range of massage and relaxation treatments are available.
