Anyone live in Whitby or Scarborough?

Hello,

My wife and I are looking to relocate to the North Yorkshire coast from South Oxfordshire. We've spent a fair amount of time in Whitby and like it, and looked at good few houses and have got the wheels in motion with regarding moving. However, is there anywhere else to consider?

In one of our trips to the north we spent a few nights in Scarborough in the South Cliff area and liked it too, so, after having a quick look on rightmove are entertaining going back up and taking a look at some properties there.

Are there areas of Scarborough to avoid?

Are there other coastal towns to look at?

We are definitely set on being coastal, and in Yorkshire, but that's about it...

Thanks for the advice so far. The main driving force behind it is being coastal, without going into too much detail sea air is what we're moving for!

The places in Whitby we've liked are on the outskirts, and by the sounds of things the south cliff area of Scarborough is definitely worth more consideration!

Thank you all for the information so far!

We had a look on rightmove and it's looking good. I think we're going to get hunting in the not too distant future, so will be back to this thread when I've some more questions.

Hello!

We're going to check out a few properties this weekend! We've accepted an offer on our house so may well rent up there for a bit.

What is the North Bay area like? We're looking at some houses right on the sea front!

Thanks

The north marine Road / Queens drive area!

Thank you, I'll look at those other areas too!
