“Great location & host - Delightful”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

person found this review helpful

We stayed for a romantic weekend at The Windmill in October 2011 after booking very late on a Friday afternoon. Great & attentive Host. Good breakfast. Nice cosy room. Just enough parking on site in a gated and secure area.
There is a little toy museum inside the Windmill.
Two major supermarkets both only 5 minutes walk from here.
The rooms are very private and are located away in two annexes away from the Windmill.
Located only a 5 minute walk to the town whwre there is plenty of shops and returants.
Highly recommended. Yes we do plan to stay again.
Absolutly loved this place.

Room Tip: None - Almost faultless. Leave your car here and walk to the town centre & supermarkets.

“A friendly stay at a unique B&B”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2012

We stayed in the Balcony Suite for two nights on the 29.12.11. It was a wonderful experience and very enjoyable. The suite was well equipped ,but a little cold at times. It had a well equipped kitchen,cosy bedroom and excellent views across Scarborough right outside your front door. Roland the host was very friendly and helpful, his breakfasts were excellent and we would highly recomend the kippers. The toy collection brought back many childhood memories. The windmill is situated close to all the amenities of Scarborough, although we had difficulty finding it at first.(Follow Rolands instructions!) We would like to return but in the summer when it's a little warmer and would have no hesitation recommending it family & friends for a break that's a little bit different.

“GREAT PLACE WELL WORTH VISIT”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 December 2011

we stayed on the 9/12/11, is a nice place to visit, rooms nice and warm, breakfast was nice, not to much not to little. Near to town and sea front, 5 minuite walking distance from b&b the town center. was great stay will go again. But if your looking for a hotel then this may not be the place for you as it doesnt have swimming pool or room service or spa treatments, but is a nice place to unwind and relax.

“a good nights sleep”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 November 2011

we enjoyed the relaxing break at the Hotel,more of a B & B with a difference.......lots of collectors toys to look at while eating breakfast.
The Breakfast was very nice plenty of food on the plate,even though we had to order the night before which we have never had to do, still I suppose that's because we usually stay in Hotels BUT I especially didn't appreciate having to get up for 8-30 to 9!!!! for it on a Sunday morning.
The room was nice & warm with a flat screen TV.
We had a 4 poster bed, which I have always wanted to try, very comfy although you had to be careful climbing over the wooden sides when getting out of bed as it was too easy to catch your knees on the boards, especially if you haven't got long legs!!

“Perfect stay :)”

We have just spent 2 nights at the windmill bed and breakfast. It was my 21st so we stayed in the balcony suite for something unique and found it was definitely worth every penny! We had a really relaxing stay and found it was just what we needed after a hectic summer. The owners were incredibly helpful and friendly and make good recommendations for restaurants in town- we had a lovely meal at florios italian. We'd love to come back and stay again and will be recommending to friends and family.
