Guests say
Church Beck House in Scalby receives high praise for its comfort, facilities, and location. Guests consistently mention the well-equipped nature of the property, the bonus of a billiards room and hot tub, and the property's suitability for family gatherings. The welcoming owners and thoughtful touches, such as welcome packs, contribute to the property's charm, although minor maintenance issues are noted.
The property is frequently described as very clean and well-maintained, with only a couple of minor cleanliness issues mentioned, such as a packet of mini cheddars behind a radiator and a balloon under a bed, which do not detract significantly from the overall high standards.
The location is highly regarded, with guests appreciating the peaceful setting, proximity to local pubs, and the short drive to Scarborough. The village of Scalby is described as delightful, enhancing the property's appeal.
Comfort is a standout feature, with guests noting the property's spaciousness, warm atmosphere, and well-equipped rooms. The presence of multiple seating areas and comfortable beds contribute to the overall comfort experienced by visitors.
Facilities are generally praised, especially the snooker table, hot tub, and well-equipped kitchen. However, some guests mention maintenance issues such as out-of-date PAT testing, a fire hazard in the tumble dryer, and inadequate lighting near the hot tub, which slightly lowers the score.
The thoughtfulness of the hosts is evident in the welcome packs and gifts mentioned by guests, which are appreciated but not guaranteed for every stay. The owners' responsiveness to queries and the provision of amenities like bathrobes add to the sense of consideration for guests' needs.

Extremely well equipped and comfortable house which is well placed for the lovely village and surrounding areas. Good food at both the Yew Tree and The Plough which are within easy walking distance. Snooker table and hot tub kept us all entertained and the fizz and tasty goodies on our arrival were a lovely touch. I highly recommend this property as it literally caters for everyone however there are a few steps within the house which could prove problematic for small children or anyone with mobility issues.

This was a great stay and very good value for money. The kitchen was brilliantly equipped & the snooker room was a great place to spend hours playing & having fun. The hot tub is huge and 7 guests easily fit into it! It was perfect for relaxing. Location is really good also with it only being 15 minutes drive to Scarborough. All in all 10/10! Thank you.
