Friendly welcome
Very friendly genuine warm welcome. They even went to the trouble of cutting up a fruit salad when all I asked for was some fruit. Small double room. Maybe a bit overpriced for accommodation but good cheap breakfast. However other hotels were charging more because Tom Jones was at the open air theatre so it provided alternative place to stay.

I enjoyed a 2 night stay at St Michael's whilst working in Scarborough. Annie and Alex are wonderful hosts! The property is well presented, clean and comfortable. For anyone going on holiday the property is just a short walk to the seafront!

Glyn & Denise were very welcoming, friendly & thoughtful for the comfort of their guests. The food was cooked & prepared well and of v,good quality. The room was very clean & comfortable, all the usual things, shower etc with plenty of toiletries, Tv, hair dryer. Also provided was a great variety of teas, coffee water & various snacks. I liked the decor the dinning room in particular. St Michael's is just minutes away from Peasholm Park which is really worth a visit, & also v.close to the North Bay. I dont think i've ever felt as relaxed in a B &B as in this & will be going back!

Great B and B
Dee and Glynn go to a great deal of trouble to ensure that your stay with them is top notch. The house is well decorated and our room had a lovely seaside theme bedroom.Its rare to see so much care and attention given to items in the bedroom and as well as tea/coffee there were all manner of tempting snacks- a thoughtful touch. The attention to detail at breakfast was obvious with a wide choice of food and fresh fruit. with a lot of good tips about places to visit in Scarborough and the sea front and Peasholm park less than ten minutes walk away, This was a perfect getaway made so by our lovely hosts.

Response from Dee on 31 July 2019
It's really disappointing that you have left such a poor review Ron bearing in mind that you didn't stay with us. I rang you to let you know that a problem had come to light that morning which meant that we have had to take the room that you were having out of use. It was an exceptionally busy weekend in Scarborough but despite having a three hour power and communications failure in the town I managed to find you another place to stay and have paid a considerable amount in excess costs to ensure that you did have somewhere to stay. I also gave you a box and chocolates and a card to thank you for being so understanding. So to rate your stay at my guest house when you didn't stay here and give me a lower mark than you may have done should you have stayed here doesn't seem very fair when I felt that I had done all that I could.

I can honestly say that we could not ask 4a better place to stay in Scarborough than Dee n Glynn's guest house St.Michael's,I cannot speak highly enough of both Dee n Glynn who make u very welcome from the moment u walk in the door, had great conversations with Glynn who is a very funny guy,our room was very spacious n immaculate n the full English breakfast was to die 4 very filling 2 set u up 4the day ahead, as it was my partners birthday Dee n Glynn left a box of chocolates on the bed 4 her when we got back so I have 2 give our new mum n dad a 10 outta 5, we will certainly stay nowhere else but this little gem of a guest house, thanks for making us feel so welcome Dee n Glynn n we hope u r back on your feet very soon Dee after your knee replacement, thanks again 2u both.

Fantastic guest house close to North Bay
Just got home from a 2 day stay in Scarborough for the cricket. The location is great, 5-10 minutes walk from North Bay, and around 15 minutes walk from the train station. The cricket ground is a few minutes away around the back. After a lovely welcome (and the offer of a cuppa!), I found that the room was lovely, Spacious, comfortable bed, with freeview TV, tea/coffee/water and snacks, which was a nice touch. The quiet fan in the room was handy as it was a scorching weekend. The huge breakfast was most welcome! :) Dee and Glyn were lovely and chatty, making you feel so welcome. They provided handy suggestions for local places to eat and drink. I wouldn't hesistate to stay here on a future visit! Thanks to you both for a lovely couple of days!

The Best B&B in Scarborough
What an amazing place to stay. I was made to feel very welcome by Dee and Glyn and they were able to give me lots of useful advice on what to see and where to go. The rooms were clean, bright and comfortable and there were lots of "little extras" in the room which I really appreciated - especially the chocolate bar! I hope to be back very soon . . .

Lovely, attentive owners & really comfortable room
Three generations of our family have just returned from a three night stay at St. Michaels and would highly recommend to everyone. Dee and Glyn made us feel incredibly welcome, right from stepping through the door - even though we were late arrivals, to our departure when they gave my son a little gift to remind him of his stay (although I think he will always remember St. Michaels as 'the 'Freddo' place' - the hospitality tray was like no other we have ever seen...WOW!!) Our rooms were clean and welcoming (mine had a lovely beach hut theme) with comfortable beds, plump pillows, cosy duvets. Ensuites were clean with good showers and very nice smelling toiletries - plenty of mirrors too. Breakfast was more than plentiful - we had cereals, yogurts, fresh fruit, toast & preserves plus a full cooked breakfast with a selection of fruit juices plus tea & coffee! - and preferences were catered for too(e.g. yolk only for my son who doesn't like egg white). Location was good - free roadside parking outside St Michael's using the parking permit provided by the guest house (be aware that the later you arrive the fewer spaces there will be), walking you can be in town or down at North Bay in about 10 minutes. We bought a family ticket for the open topped bus which gives you unlimited travel for the day between the Sands at North Bay and The Spa at South Bay - ideal as we went to see a show at the Spa at night then caught the bus back. Definitely deserve the 5/5 on Expedia & Tripadvisor
