Stayed for 1 week with all of our family, 6 adults & 3 children.

Lovely spacious house, the swimming pool was enjoyed by our grandchildren. Plenty of room in the garden for badminton, swing ball & our obligatory water fight.

Location good, easy to park on Scalby Mills Road & walk down to the beach & along to North Bay. Navel Warfare in Peasholme Park a hit with old & young.

Melanie was very helpful when booking & providing information.

We stayed for a week in February half-term with our family of 6 adults and 4 children aged from 8 to 11. The house was very well equipped and comfortable. Everyone enjoyed the pool, especially the children. The lovely, large kitchen with wonderful views of the garden and beyond was a bonus.
The highlight for everyone was Ravenscar, where the children were able to see the many seals at close hand…..but beware, the descent is a bit hairy! We also saw deer on our way up, grazing on the golf course.
Lots of places to visit…Scarborough castle, the Sea life Centre, Robin Hood’s Bay, Whitby. We got fish and chips from Silk’s, delicious…so much so we went back again.
The wine left by the owners was greatly appreciated too. This was all helped by the glorious weather!

A quiet and peaceful location in a beautiful part of the country, Home farm was ideal for our family holiday.

With a variety of walks located within 10 mins driving distance and Scarborough itself only a stones throw away, and of course the best part for the children and indeed us adults, was our daily swim in the spacious indoor heated pool!

I stayed here with my extended family in July this year. We also rented the cottage which was perfect for my 91 year old mother in law.

The house was homely and relaxing and we had a lovely stay. The pool was great! The location is really nice; a quiet street in a beautiful village.

I would highly recommend Home Farm House for a family getaway.

Stayed recently (for the second time) to celebrate my husband’s birthday. The whole family (from 11 to much older) loved every minute.

The house is superb with every facility you can think of and the pool is amazing. Super area for walking, cycling and visiting Scarborough for ice cream! Highly recommend this house if you are planning a family event.

I rented Home Farm House and the adjoining cottage for a birthday celebration with all my family.

The age range of the group was from 2 years old to 76 years old. Everyone had a thoroughly wonderful time and didn’t want to leave. The house and cottage are very cosy and welcoming. A huge dining table allowed all 13 of us to sit and enjoy meals together in the large dining/kitchen. The lovely large indoor swimming pool was used by everyone. The teenagers were in the pool for most of the weekend. The house and cottage were spotless.

We will definitely be back. Thank you Melanie for a memorable weekend in your lovely house.

Our family booked the Cottage for Christmas 2016. What a delight. From the moment we walked in the door, we knew we would love it. Cosy, warm and welcoming are the words best to describe it. Plenty of room, a fantastic kitchen with under floor heating, which leads to a dining area, and through the doors to the swimming pool. It was fab on Christmas Day to be able to go in the pool with my six month old grandson.

The bedrooms are a great size, with plenty of cupboard space. Theres everything there that you could possibly need.

Thank you to Melanie for all your help and answering my endless questions !!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Home Farm House. Lovely house, with plenty of room for all the family, well maintained with excellent facilities. Great pool which we used everyday. Liked the quiet village location with the added bonus of only being a few miles drive away from the hustle and bustle of Scarborough. Highly recommended.

A perfect venue for our annual family holiday including our children and their husband and wife and four grandchildren. The house was ideal for our needs; extremely well equipped and furnished perfectly to provide comfort without any feeling of having to take particular care – just how we wanted it. All of us loved the swimming pool which was well used every day.

Scalby is a lovely village and Scarborough one of the great British resorts. If you have a large family, love Yorkshire and want first class accommodation, this is the place for you. Melanie was extremely helpful all the way through and the two bottles of wine waiting for us were much appreciated. A terrific place.

We rented home farm from Melanie and Nick for a family break away. The family range from 2 to 55 and there was something for everyone. Melanie and Nick even left a welcome card and bottle of wine which was very nice. I would recommend this property to any family wishing to have a great home with a fantastic pool and a great location. The owners are very helpful and for a family of 10 it is a great value holiday home. Thanks again Melanie and Nick. We will definitely book again, the Neary family from Derby.

I have just returned from a big family holiday. Our party ranged from grand parents to 4 year old twins (9 people). We all had a wonderful time. The house is clean and warm with plenty of space for us all.

The house has everything you could need, even toys and games for the kids to play with. The pool is great (we had to bribe the kids out!) Scalby itself is beautiful, tea room and pub are definitely worth a visit.

All in all we really enjoyed our time at home farm house and would recommend a stay. (Im currently looking at dates for our next stay)

My family of 10 and I had a wonderful stay here in April 2013. The weather was not the best but the facilities made up for this as much of our time was spent indoors.

The property was spotless and well maintained. All was exactly as described in the advertisement. The pool was the highlight of the stay, especially for the children who spent hours playing in and out of the water.

I hope to return in the near future and would highly recommend it to anyone for either a short stay or a longer holiday near to Scarborough.
