Archie's Anchor

This property is amazing, well equipped and we feelt like home from the very first moment.

Excellent accomodation.

Great location,easy parking and close to all that Scarborough has to offer.

Wow, what a lovely apartment.

Loved it, great location. Couldn't wish for anything more.

Archie’s Anchor was simply superb, we had the best time and I was emotional to leave.

The apartment was spotlessly clean and every detail had been considered. We were so grateful for the little extras such as biscuits and the cold drinks in the fridge and the shampoo and shower gel was a lovely touch. The views over the sea and castle were breathtaking and I shall miss them while having my morning coffee watching the sun come up. Scarborough had everything we needed and everyone we spoke to was genuinely lovely. We will definitely return as we couldn’t imagine anywhere better!

Beautiful apartment, the owners have thought of everything.

Spotlessly clean and tidy. Location has sea views and is ideal for exploring the local area.

WOW!

What a great place Archie’s Anchor is! The photos looked fantastic but they still didn’t do the place justice! Great apartment, immaculate, comfortable, modern, great views, park area opposite, view of the sea and castle to the right. Fantastic location, minute away from cliff lift & Spa and beach. Lots of information in apartment on how to use equipment. I could just go on & on …. It felt like home and we didn’t want to leave. Many thanks

Excellent property.

Very clean, well equipped, cosy and finished and furnished to a high standard. We would stay again if we return to Scarborough. Thoughtful touches eg. gifts on arrival.

We had an excellent stay at Archie’s Anchor, perfect space for a family, great location and everything you need in the apartment for a comfortable stay.

We really enjoyed the week and had a great time.

The apartment far exceeded our expectations.

It was stunning. The decor and furnishings were beautifully and tastefully done. The beds was very comfortable. The apartment had a lovely view over to the castle and there was a garden area across the road which was perfect in the morning for our dog.

Beautiful place amazing didnt want to leave given everything to make you feel at home

We feel this property is the best we have stayed in.

All the information given was very clear. The accommodation was spotless and we were very comfortable with close proximity to the sea front and it was nice to be able to park right outside the property. The only thing we missed was a small sharp knife to slice vegetables as the large knives were too big for this task, however it wasn’t a problem as we only cooked a main meal once (we like to eat out a lot on holiday). Overall a fantastic apartment, pity about the weather but we enjoyed our break anyway.

Second stay at archies anchor.

Didn't imagine you could improve the perfect apartment but the new layout makes it even more stunning.

The apartment is beautifully furnished, with everything you could possibly need for a perfect stay.

It’s in a wonderful location with views of the sea and the castle from the huge bay windows. We will definitely return, and would not hesitate to recommend Archie’s Anchor.

An excellent apartment, very clean and has all the facilities you will need.

Great views and short walk to everything.

The flat was lovely and clean and the welcoming supplies were very much appreciated.

The proximity to the cliff lift was perfect for a nice walk into the town then a walk along the beach coming back then up in the left - ideal! The rooms were very good sizes and we had no difficulties at all with anything. This is a fantastic place for dogs, the beach, the welcoming shopkeepers, cafe and bar owners. Scarborough must have the happiest dogs in the UK. Would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely amazing.

All the facilities and extras you could wish for. Exceptionally clean - we don't usually fully unpack as drawers & wardrobes are often not clean enough or smell musty but this time our cases were empty and tucked away till repacked. A true home from home. The decor and furnishings were lovely. The view from the lounge and kitchen were amazing - sea and castle and Esplanade Gardens. We loved sitting at the table with our meals. The smart TV for a great addition as I could log into my Amazon Prime account if I wanted to. Nothing to not love and we will definitely stay there again. That part of Scarborough has always been our favourite so the location is also perfect. Quick tip if you want to avoid the steps/slope to the blue bridge into town turn left and then at the end turn right so you can walk along Ramshill and go over Valley Bridge. They're working on the cliff lift but it's a long job of course. Also go the St Martin's Church for the amazing Pre-Raphaelite designs and fab cafe (they have a proper cafe kitchen so you can have cappuccino etc, and delicious Welsh Rarebit and home made cakes). Clock Cafe is also always lovely and has one of the best views in Scarborough - if the flag isn't flying, it's closed.

Lovely holiday to scarborough in August.

What a lovely spot this is. Views are wonderful. Owners have provided lots of little extras not usual in holiday accommodation so we were really pleased to land on this. Will definitely be returning. Thank you

We had a great week in Archie's Anchor.

The apartment was modern, spacious, clean and well equipped. The living area is huge with amazing views to the sea. The modern kitchen has everything you could need. The beds are comfortable and having an en suite bathroom as well as a family bathroom was a great addition. We didn't have a problem parking and always managed to get parked right outside the apartment. The location is great and so near the beach. It's just a shame the cliff lift wasn't working during our stay. The nearby Mexican resturant El Gringos is well worth a visit. Highly recommend Archie's Anchor for a family holiday. Thanks for having us ❤️

Archie's Anchor is a beautiful apartment.

It is spotlessly clean and very comfortable. We loved the spectacular view from the sitting room. During the very hot weather we were pleased to be staying somewhere which was so cool. We would recommend anyone to stay there and are already planning a return visit.

Immaculate apartment, cool and airy (which is a plus point).

We did miss being able to sit on the balcony, the table and chairs have gone. A word from the owners that the cliff lift is out of action would have been appreciated. We did our usual walk down through the Italian gardens to the sea and then discovered the cliff lift wasn’t working to take us back up!

This I'd such an amazing apartment to stay in.

Very clean, has everything you need, amazing views and so close to everything you will need or want to do. This was our second stay and will definitely be booking again.

The property is very spacious and clean with a lovely view over the harbour.

Generally we really enjoyed our stay but some aspects were a bit disappointing. Key safe access via a low, dark cupboard was an issue (although we appreciate there is another key safe outside for emergency use). We didn't realise that access to the balcony was via the lounge window and did not feel it safe to use this. This should be mentioned in the property details. A recycling bin in the kitchen would be helpful, as we felt that having to use the fire escape to access the bins was dangerous. These comments are meant to be helpful and might not be an issue for some guests.

I can't believe how lucky we've been to have spent a week in such a beautiful apartment.

The veiw through those stunning windows is wonderful. Archies anchor is so tasteful and comfortable with everything for the perfect place to stay. Great location for exploring Scarborough and even free roadside parking.

We have stayed many times at this apartment over the last four years and have always found it to be very clean, with all necessary facilities and is very spacious and well situated with beautiful views.

A really lovely apartment, very comfortable and relaxing.

Love the little extra touches, tea coffe milk & biscuits. Great to have a view of the castle& harbour,would stay again.

The appartment is delightful.

Beautiful sea view. Very clean and well equipped. I only marked comfort down as my preference of mattress is not the same as the ones in the property

Everything went smoothly.

Full instructions given on how to get in the property. Was as amazing as it looked and very much enjoyed our stay. Lots of thoughtful little touches especially being able to have a coffe or tea or cold drink as soon as we arrived without having to go out to find the shops. it was nice to just drop the bags and sit on the balcony and enjoy the view with a cold drink. The flat was clean and tidy with a homely feel. Very spacious and with lots of light. There are two lots of steps up to the flat. There lovely gardens across the road where people often walk dogs, Small Sainsbury a short walk away. Good bus service. The boat ride to Whitby is a good experience - take binoculours to see the seals. Lovely local pub The Cask Inn. Food is good and it has a weekly Jazz club on Wednedays but you need to get there early to queue up. There was a cost to get in but think the price varies depending on who is playing.

We've stayed here a few times now and have booked next year already.

So I think that says it all!

The flat was great.

The only improvement I would suggest are the bedside lights, which are very poor.

It was in an ideal location well equipped and just a lovely place to stay

What a wonderful place to stay, it was the most perfect setting.

The host had done everything they could to make sure the stay was just right. There was everything you might need for your stay, especially in the kitchen, every small detail had been thought of. I would Definitely stay there again. Thank to the host

Stunning light airy apartment.

Original features and lovely big windows with views over the bay and castle. We had a great week with plenty of walks and visits to the north bay, Peasholm Park and eating out in The Green Room (fantastic but you need to book), Lezzet Bistro and Eat Me cafe - all wonderful. We will definitely be returning.

the flat was so worm and comfortable.

the location was perfect and all in all it was a lovely holiday. would definitely recommend this property. thank you for a lovely stay

Excellent flat and location.

A problem in the bathroom was dealt with efficiently Two criticisms: No razor socket. I had to buy an adaptor. The flat was very well lit except there was no light over the table in the sitting room which was needed in September.

Apartment very nicely decorated, everything provided that you could possibly want including some treats in the fridge.

Location was excellent.

We stayed at Archie's Anchor for 2 weeks at the end of June - beginning of July.

It was a beautiful apartment, very spacious. Even bigger than it looks it the pictures. Stunning views of the gardens, sea and castle from the huge windows and balcony. The apartment has everything you could need for a comfortable stay. We look forward to returning very soon.

Nothing all was good can't complain about anything.

Plus we had brilliant weather which was a bonus.

Would definitely stay here again

Key safe very difficult to use, little light and needs kneeling on floor for success, not easy for old with bad knees and sight problems.

Otherwise good, better than previous favourite in area.

The owners seem to have thought of everything, so very well equipped.

Only minor problem was the front door lock which was very difficult to unlock.

The entrance hall and stairway to the apartment is in need of decorating and a good clean this part of the building lets the apartment down

An absolute gem.

Beautiful apartment, perfectly situated. We would most definitely recommend, and likely to go back.

Archies Anchor is a beautiful apartment.

It was so comfortable it felt like home. We had a wonderful week and can't wait to return. Looking at the view of the sea from the apartment was a lovely part of our holiday, it made staying in Scarbourgh even better than it usually is.

Excellent apartment - we wanted for nothing and it was extremely comfortable.

Excellent customer service from Sykes too when checking final details etc. Really pleased and had a fab holiday - thank you.

We were met with a small hamper for us and one for the dogs, basics in the fridge and cupboards.

The description and location were fabulous, as was the welcome manual, so informative about all things local. We would highly recommend Archie’s Anchor it is so well equipped, clean, bright and warm.

Everything was perfect, the apartment was clean, spacious with all we needed.

Our Christmas welcome pack and gift for our dog was an unexpected and much appreciated. We will be staying there again.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay in this lovely apartment which by far exceeded our expectations.

The beds were very comfortable with the memory foam mattresses.This apartment is large enough for 2 couples or a family of 5 without being on top of each other with 1 bedroom and bathroom private to the rest of the rooms.The owners have done a lovely job with the decor and furnishings and in spite of the large proportions,the flat is very cosy.The view from the floor to ceiling windows is to die for looking out over the castle and south bay.It has everything you might need with lots of little extras.We will definitely be returning as we visit Scarborough several times a year.It is situated very close to the Spa Cliff lift and there is a good selection of shops close by.If you find it a little far to walk from the town centre,I reccomend you catch the number 1 bus to Cayton which stops very close to the appartment on West Street.

Fabulous apartment.

Every little detail had been considered. We had a wonderful stay.

We had a wonderful holiday at Archie’s Anchor.

The flat is beautiful and very comfortable with stunning views. We enjoyed being able to take Dougal our dog who enjoyed the park opposite every morning plus a great romp on the beach which is really close. The weather was also perfect and we all had a great time. We are now returning to work well rested and relaxed. Thank you!
