Boutique Georgian Rooms in Scarborough's Old Town

Welcome

About Us

The Barrington isn't just another guest house. We're a proper home-from-home in Scarborough's historic Old Town. I'm Claire, your host, and I've created something different here - boutique rooms with character in our beautiful Georgian building, where personal service comes standard. Whether you're planning a family holiday, romantic weekend or business trip, you'll find comfort, character and a warm Yorkshire welcome.

Room Highlights

Bedroom with a bed, wooden beams, and a chandelier. Yellow bedding and a vase of white flowers add color.

Four-Poster Boutique Room

Spacious first-floor room with stunning oak four-poster bed and modern power shower. The perfect retreat after a day exploring Scarborough.

A bedroom with two beds, a dresser, and blue curtains. There is a teddy bear on a side table.

Unique Family Room

Our family room sleeps up to 4 and overlooks the garden, a peaceful retreat after a busy day at the beach!

Bedroom with a gold bedspread, nightstand, and small sink. White walls, a window, and a decorative mirror are also visible.

Cosy Double Room

Peaceful garden-view room with all the comforts you need. Ideal for couples or solo travellers wanting comfort without the premium price.
