Hospital Stays

Comfortable accommodation near Scarborough Hospital.

Whether you’re NHS staff on placement, a locum doctor, agency, or bank staff, or if you’re staying close by while a loved one is treated at Scarborough Hospital, we understand that being nearby matters, and that hotel rooms aren’t built for longer stays. Sanderling Chase sits just off Falsgrave Road, above a café in a lively, convenient part of town, just over a mile walk from the hospital (25 minutes). You’ll have your own kitchen, living space, and privacy, a genuine alternative to a hotel room for however long you need to stay.

For NHS Staff, agency & Locums

Locum doctors, agency, bank staff, and healthcare professionals on placement need somewhere that works like a proper base, not a hotel room you’re living out of a suitcase in. Flexible booking terms, a fully equipped kitchen, and fast WiFi make it easy to settle in for placements of any length. Just over a mile from the hospital, a 25 minute walk, or bus services from Falsgrave Road.

For Family Staying Near a Loved One

If someone close to you is being treated at Scarborough Hospital, we know a hotel room isn’t always what you need, especially if you’re staying for more than a night or two. Having your own space to cook, rest, and just be, away from a busy ward, can make a genuine difference during a difficult time. Sanderling Chase is a standalone apartment with its own private entrance, not part of a shared block, so you’re not passing through communal corridors or lifts on your way in and out. It’s that privacy, with the hospital just a 25 minute walk or short bus ride away.

This is a split-level apartment, with one flight of stairs from the front door up to the living area and kitchen. The bedrooms and bathroom are on a second level, accessed via a further internal staircase.
