About The Plough Inn & Cottages

Sunday roasts, lobster and baked cauliflower steak are all part of the kitchen's repertoire at The Plough Inn & Cottages, a pub with rooms on High Street in Scarborough. The restaurant and bar form the heart of the place, with outdoor seating for milder days, packed lunches for those heading out for the day, and breakfast served to set guests up in the morning.

Rooms are fitted with en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning and free WiFi, and are noticeably well finished for a pub setting. Family rooms are available, and drinks can be brought straight to your room. The property also caters for weddings and events, with a bridal suite, VIP facilities and meeting rooms on offer, alongside laundry service for longer stays.

Staff are attentive and the atmosphere throughout is warm and welcoming. Scarborough's town centre and coastline are both close by, with walking and cycling routes, watersports, golf, and further pubs and restaurants all within reach nearby. Note that there's no parking available at the property, so onward travel plans should factor this in.

Fabulous stay at the Plough, a real gem & worth every penny. Quality & comfortable well designed & decorated rooms with clean crisp white bedding, towels & lovely extras. We had evening meal which was delicious great staff big shout out to Will who goes above & beyond to make your stay superb & also the young night porter last night too. Highly recommend & will definitely be back. If your visiting Open Air theatre the Plough offer a great service to residents with a shuttle bus to & from the theatre saves a lot of hassle, waiting & taxi fees 👍

Location is very nice. Rooms are very comfortable & I didn’t expect the standard to be so high for a pub ! My room had a bath and shower. I think this was the easiest check-in of me been teavelling for 5 years every week. The staff are very sound & responsive. The food is top notch. The music was very suiting. I live in Ireland & the Guinness was actually really good, I’d be happy if this was poured in my local. Can’t wait to stay here again. Fair play to all the staff. Can’t fault anything.

Decided to go to the Plough for an evening meal.Nice establishment.Ordered the meals,waited 50 minutes for the food. Not good enough.Only ordered gammon & chips and a fish cake with green stem broccoli.We had to order a side dish of new potatoes to go with the fish cake!Very expensive for what we had.Wouldn’t bother again.Shame.
