Scarborough has officially been named **England’s most beautiful seaside town** and **the UK’s top holiday destination**, according to *Time Out* magazine. What earned us the crown? Think golden beaches, rugged cliffs, and views that stop you in your tracks. From the iconic Scarborough Castle dividing South and North Bay to winding Tudor-era streets, there’s beauty around every corner. *CN Traveller* even praised our "crooked streets" and dramatic headlands that stretch out from the castle. But it’s not just about the views. Local favourites like the **Scarborough Fair Collection** (home to vintage rides and penny arcades) and the **Rotunda Museum** (Jurassic fossils galore!) keep the charm alive for visitors and locals alike. With so much to explore, it's no wonder Scarborough is getting the national spotlight. Do you agree with the title?
