Whether your passion is for entertainment and excitement or long stretches of beach and fine dining, Scarborough can satisfy. The epitome of British seaside resorts, Scarborough remains one of the country’s favourite destinations. There are so many reasons why Scarborough is as popular now as it always has been, aside from the nostalgia. The resort has retained a traditional feel to it, despite many facelifts and improvements to facilities and services. There is a blending of the old with the new as the promenade comes to life with modern attractions and amusements and people strolling and enjoying the fresh sea air today as they always have.

There is a wealth of things to do when holidaying here and the excellent public transport system can place you anywhere that takes your fancy. That is, of course, if you can pull yourself away from the delights on the doorstep of the Ivy Dene; Scarborough has enough entertainment to keep any visitor busy for weeks.

Top shows, comedians, Karaoke nights, world cuisine, superb shopping and a broad choice of activities are all on offer, in the town that doesn’t stop.
