In the heart of the North York Moors National Park, the Saxon Villa Bed and Breakfast offers accommodation with countryside views. The property provides guests with a base for both hiking and seaside days out. The Cinder Track and Cleveland Way are minutes from the house. A 10-minute walk from historic Robin Hood’s Bay and a 10-minute drive from popular Whitby, Saxon Villa has free parking on site. Each of the spacious rooms has a private bathroom with shower and guests can enjoy the communal garden surrounded by fields and with far-reaching views down to the coast. The building has individually decorated rooms successfully combining modern design with traditional Victorian features. Rooms come with a refreshments tray, LCD TV and free Wi-Fi. Full English breakfasts as well as lighter options are sourced locally when possible. The town of Scarborough is 30 minutes away by car, and there are many local pubs for relaxed evenings around the village.

    Very clean and tidy, comfortable bed. It was the little things that help you feel comfortable like the toiletries available, the flannels and shower gel, quality toilet paper and nice towels, nice quality pillows and quilt. Milk for your room...
