Coach Friendly Council

Scarborough Borough Council is committed to welcoming groups to the area and we are delighted to be able to inform group organisrs that the Borough has previously received an award from the Confederation of Passenger Transport for the improvements which have been made.

Our aim is...

“To ensure that our visitors enjoy their experience at their chosen resort and to encourage them to return again.”

“To assist group organisers wherever possible to ensure that trips run as smoothly as possible.”

Group Organisers Guide

The Group Organisers Guide is produced annually and offers suggestions on accommodation, eating out, event listings, attractions, parking and suggested tour itineraries.
