About this property
Host & Stay | Skipper's Rest @ North Marine House
Summary: Skippers Rest is a one bedroom apartment located right outside the Scarborough cricket ground. Perfect for those looking to explore the North Yorkshire coastline or national park. The apartment features an open plan living and kitchen area, kingsize bedroom and private bathroom.

The Neighborhood: If you’re a cricket fan, this is the ideal location, North Marine House overlooks Scarborough cricket club, Yorkshire's first-class cricket ground. Located just a short walk from all of the popular attractions. Packed with seaside charm, you’ll find plenty of pubs, restaurants and cafes to discover as well as arcades and ice cream parlours.
There are a number of beaches for you to choose from. The popular South Bay is a suntrap and is close to the hustle and bustle of the town centre. North Bay has been accredited with Blue Flag status meaning it’s one of the best beaches in Europe! Cayton Bay is the quietest of the three and boasts a sweeping bay with a rural feel. Lastly Cornelian Bay is the most remote and the hardest to get to but it’s a hidden gem and often empty.
Ideal for all weathers, there are lots of indoor attractions in Scarborough for the whole family. Head to the Sea Life Sanctuary to see seals, penguins, sharks, turtles and more or Scarborough Castle to explore its 3000 year history. If it’s outdoor fun you’re looking for, the Open Air Theatre is a short 20 minute walk from North Marine House, where you can see amazing bands, singers and comedians. There is also the Sky Trail Adventure, Peasholm Park and a great water park, suitable for all ages a few minutes’ drive away.
Getting Around: North Marine House is within walking distance of all that Scarborough has to offer and within 1 hours’ drive time of Staithes, Whitby, Robin Hood’s Bay and Filey.
Scarborough Train Station is a short 10 minute walk away and has routes to Filey, Bridlington, Liverpool and Sheffield.
There are plenty of bus routes throughout Scarborough. Hop on the 12 route and you can visit the neighbouring seaside spots of Filey and Bridlington. The X93 travels through to Middlesbrough with stops in Robin Hood’s Bay and Whitby.
Interaction with Guests: We’re always available for our guests so please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

The place was filthy if you send me an email address i will send you photo evidence. The radiator fell off the wall so we was freezing as we had no heat. We couldnt use the shower as the temp regulater was faulty so had to strip wash at the sink. Such a shame as the property itself is lovely.
