Our practice is conveniently located on Falsgrave Road, at the junction leading to Sainsbury's, making us easy to find whether you're travelling by car, bus or train.

By Train

We are approximately a 5-minute walk from Scarborough Train Station. The station has local bus connections directly outside, making it easy to reach us from across the local area.

By Bus

There is a bus stop outside the SPAR shop on Falsgrave Road and also many bus stops outside Scarborough train station which are both just a short walk from the practice. Bus timetables can be found here.

By Car & Parking

Parking is available at Sainsbury's, located next to the practice. If you need longer than the standard parking period, you can extend your stay using the parking payment system.

There is also on-street parking nearby for vehicles displaying a valid parking disc, subject to local parking restrictions.

Disabled Parking

We have disabled parking available at the rear of the practice for patients who require it.

To access the disabled parking, drive up the road towards Sainsbury's and take the first right turn. The parking area is located behind the building.

If you require a disabled parking space, or need any assistance on arrival, please let us know before your appointment and a member of our team will be happy to help and advise on availability.

We kindly ask all patients to ensure they park only in designated parking areas for the practice and to avoid parking in private residential spaces. This helps us maintain good relations with our neighbours and ensures access remains clear for residents and deliveries at all times.
