Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Scarborough?
The best times to visit Scarborough are during the shoulder seasons of autumn (March to May) and spring (September to November).

During these months, you'll experience pleasant weather, typically with sunny days and mild temperatures, great for exploring the coast and hinterland. The crowds are also generally smaller than in the peak summer months, allowing for a more relaxed experience at popular attractions and beaches.

For those who enjoy outdoor activities like hiking or cycling, these seasons offer ideal conditions without the intense heat of summer or the cooler, wetter days of winter. You can comfortably enjoy coastal walks or explore the nearby national parks.

If you're interested in marine life, spring is particularly good for whale watching as humpback whales migrate along the coast.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline − this is often within 24 to 48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our 'Fully refundable property' filter during your search to find the right Scarborough hotel for you.
