The breakfast room features large picture windows offering a panoramic view of the sky and promise of the sea beyond.

These rooms are spacious enough for families of five and come with a private bathroom and flat-screen TV.

Historic Character
The building retains original Victorian decor and architecture, with individually decorated guest rooms that feature period details.

“The Raincliffe strikes me as a genuinely welcoming spot in Scarborough, managed with a personal touch that makes a difference. Breakfasts are notably good, and the inclusion of amenities like a bar with a pool table offers a pleasant, unpretentious atmosphere.
