I was really looking forward to our 3 night break in Filey, as I grew up holidaying there every year, and wanted to show my family around.. The Bay was a perfect base, just 5 minutes drive from town, or a good 30 minute walk along the beach into town.
Harlequin cottage was perfect. Spotlessly clean, warm and welcoming. With every little thing thought of..the little extras like tea and coffee supplied, and lovely fluffy towels were much appreciated. Our children loved the games, books and tv in their room!
The pool is is great, though we didn't try any of the extra activities. We did try the Italian cafe on site. Don't expect a restaurant as it really is a cafe. But the food was great with huge portions! 2 adult meals, 2 children's meals, 4 drinks including 2 alcoholic £35.. Good value.
There is a lot of building still going on on the site, but it didn't spoil things at all.
If you have never been to 'sterchi's' chocolates in Filey town, go! We've been customers over 40 years, and it's still as good as ever!
Filey town itself seems to be frozen in time.. Much of it is exactly the same as it was 40 years ago, which of course, I loved, and got very nostalgic!

My daughter loved it so much, she cried when we left! We'll be back !

The cottage is lovely, set close enough to the sea for long walks to Filey centre. The actual cottage itself is top of the range with everything we could have asked for already thought about. 5* all round with a great time had by all. We will be returning soon.
Thank you for a wonderful holiday.

An amazing cottage in the heart of The Bay at Filey.

This accommodation is truely a home from home. It's spacious rooms are all equipped with more than what would be expected from any holiday stay.

The cottage and customer service alone would have been more than enough to leave a 5***** review for this holiday home, but it is very clear that the owners have gone above and beyond the call of duty - ensuring every need for every age is catered for (including the dog). Our labrador loved the surroundings and was very grateful for the treats which had been very kindly provided for him.

The whole cottage was spotless when we arrived and the booking and confirmation of access to the cottage was fast and hassle free.

We will highly recommend to anyone wanting to holiday on the East Coast. This is the place to be.

See you again soon!! Mr & Mrs Pitts (& Toby )

Beautiful new house, warm, clean and home from home....lots of extras and an extremely comfortable stay. Lovely resort, fabulous private beach.....short drive to Riley for supplies and a lovely Christmas at walk on the beach. All in all a great short break couldn't have picked a better place thank you very very much:-)

Had a fantastic 4 days lovely beach where we took the dog every morning then afternoon walked round the lakes all a 3 minute stroll. Close to scarborough and whitby did plenty of sight seeing. The cottage was lovely had everything we needed, Definitely will be back.

We had a lovely stay and were sad to leave. We've stayed at The Bay many times and would rate this cottage as one of the best. Compared to some of the other 2 bedroom cottages, this one is more spacious, but more importantly the owner has put a lot of thought into making sure that guests have everything they need. We've got used to managing with minimal coathangers, nowhere to hang coats up, no kitchen spray etc, but no such niggles here! Everywhere was clean and the beds were comfy too. And it was lovely not to have to chase the owner for key collection details - everything you needed to know was promptly sent once the payment had been made. The Bay itself is excellent for dog owners with meadows on site and direct access to the beach. We love our early morning walks along the sandy beach into Filey for breakfast. The pub and Italian onsite are dog friendly & the food in the Italian is delicious. (It would be nice if The Bay installed an outside tap to allow people to hose their sandy/muddy dogs down.) Swimming pool is great & the kids loved the amusements in Scarborough. All in all, a wonderful break - thank you.
