“Everything about the cottage was lovely.”

It was very comfortable with lots of little added extras. It was a great location - close to everything.

Judy December 2024

“We had a lovely stay which will definitely not be our last.”

The cottage is cosy and peaceful with a modern and relaxing atmosphere. The cottage is situated very close to all the delights of Bridlington but was still tucked away from all of the hustle and bustle. The parking is limited but we had fair warning of that and we always managed to tuck in somewhere. However next year we will make use of the carpark which is conveniently close. A delightful holiday and we are already booked to return.

- Judy, December 2024

Thanks so much for taking the time to do this review, it's very much appreciated. Really good to hear that Postman's Cottage gave you a relaxing and comfortable stay. Great to hear that you're already booked to come back, it'll be lovely to have you stay again. Thanks again. Property Owner
Stephen November 2024

“An absolutely lovely property.”

Comfy beds. Nice sofas. Very well equipped kitchen. Smart TV. Good WiFi. Completely safe and enclosed rear garden. I would thoroughly recommend and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. We have stayed in over 50 Sykes holiday cottages over the past few years and this would be in our top five. As the accurate listing states the stairs are steep and anyone with restricted mobility would struggle Parking wasn't an issue for us with a medium sized car but a larger van type vehicle might struggle but there is a safe car park a few yards away. Close to all facilities. 10-15 minutes to the sea front. Considering its central location it was really quiet. A really nice stay. Excellent. 5 stars.

- Stephen, November 2024

I'm so pleased that Postman's Cottage was everything you needed it to be. I really appreciate your kind words and the time you have taken to put this review together. It's good to hear that you were comfy and able to snuggle up for a winter break in Bridlington. Welcome back anytime. Thanks again. PS. Several pods of dolphins spotted in the bay just this last week! Property Owner
Ian October 2024

“We have stayed in many holiday properties in the last 4 years with our dog and we found this cottage just lovely.”

It's description and location were exactly as listed. The interiors were better than the photographs demonstrated (usually the other way around). The furnishings and accessories were ample, comfortable and made the cottage very cosy. On arrival we were greeted with wine, snacks, tea, coffee, biscuits and milk and more. These touches just made the first night and next morning perfect for us after a long drive. The owner was happy to communicate during our stay and very generously gave us extra time on leaving day. The cottage was very close to lovely shops and the beach. Local information was thorough (we took advice on dining, and days out). And finally we felt our dog was welcome as treats, bowls and other dog accessories were made available to us. Overall we had a great experience and would use again and recommend. Thank you.

- Ian, October 2024

Thank you so very much for taking the time to submit this online review. Your comments are much appreciated and useful for anyone considering a stay at Postman's Cottage.

Kay October 2024

“The postman’s Cottage is a fantastic home from home.”

Great location, very clean and extremely well presented. Ruth, the host, was wonderful, sending good clear instructions and very accommodating. Lovely touches like a bottle of wine and milk in the fridge, fresh flowers, tea and coffee made us feel really welcomed. Definitely recommend this cottage as it was perfect in every way

- Kay, October 2024

Really pleased you all had a good time for your Bridlington break and that Postman's Cottage was everything you needed it to be. Thanks for your lovely comments. So sorry your preferred return dates have already been booked up, but hope you can come again sometime. Thanks so much for your online review. Much appreciated. Property Owner

“What a lovely cottage!”

Haven't got 1 fault house was a great size, comfy beds and enclosed garden for the dogs. We’ve stayed in a couple of places in Bridlington but we've now found the one we will keep coming back to. Great communication from the owner!

- Aimee, October 2024

Gary October 2024

“This cottage was very comfortable and clean on our arrival and we needed for nothing.”

It was close to the centre, the seafront and all the facilities Bridlington has to offer. I would recommend this holiday home to anyone looking to stay in the area. The owner even messaged us during our stay to tell us to look out of the window and see the northern lights which was spectacular. We even got an appearance from the postman during our stay delivering a couple of letters

- Gary, October 2024

Thanks to you all for your online review and your kind words in the visitor's book, four-legged friends included! Much appreciated. After a mixed week of weather, the Northern Lights certainly obliged for your last night. If only I could promise this for every stay! Lots on social media for anyone wanting to look though. Really pleased the Postman (and his Cottage) was everything needed it to be for your visit. Property Owner
Alan September 2024

“The property is in a good position for all of the resorts amenities including the railway station.”

It is a home from home with an enclosed garden for our four legged friends to enjoy. We had a lovely stay and was made to feel very welcome by Ruth and would thoroughly recommend it to any one and have already mentioned it to friends.

- Alan, September 2024

Really good to hear you enjoyed your stay and that Postman's Cottage gave you the holiday home from which to enjoy Bridlington. Very pleased that Oscar made the most of it too! Was lovely to meet you all. Thank you for the recommendations and also for taking the time to do an online review. Much appreciated. Property Owner
Iris September 2024

“A beautiful house, very tastefully decorated and had everything you would need for a comfortable stay.”

It was great having two bathrooms upstairs and downstairs. Although the kitchen was a galley style it was so easy to reach everything and well equipped. The hamper, wine and flowers were a lovely touch. I loved the dog friendly garden and all the trees, shrubs etc. we could easily walk to the beach and harbour and Ruth told us about all the various places to visit. She was great, nothing too much trouble and always on hand for any questions.

- Iris, September 2024

Thank you so much for taking the time to submit an online review. Much appreciated. I'm so very pleased to hear you all enjoyed your stay at Postman's Cottage and that you had some good dog walks too! Good to know the garden was what you needed it to be.. my dog seems to like it on gardening days too! Thankfully a long awaited drenching of rain overnight.. apples in abundance! Thanks again.

“A beautiful comfortable house.”

Spotlessly clean throughout. All amenities very close by and some beautiful places to visit. The communication from the owner was brilliant and the information folder was full of great places to visit.

- Bev, June 2024

Beverley May 2024

“We use Sykes all the time and this is probably the best property we have stayed in.”

It is beautiful. The garden is amazing. The owner had put a lot of effort into making our stay as comfortable as possible, with fresh flowers, a welcome pack and so much more. Property is central to everything. A superstore is close by. The north/south bays, and old town are in walking distance.

- Beverley, May 2024

Thank you so much for taking the time do an online review. Very much appreciated, and high praise indeeed, thank you. I'm so pleased you enjoyed Postman's Cottage. The garden has been a labour of love with help from my sister. There will be cherries and blackcurrants in the summer. So glad you liked it. Lovely comments in the visitor's book too. Thank you. Property Owner
Paul May 2024

“The cottage is very well maintained, clean, fresh and welcoming.”

The owner puts in a lot of effort to make her guests feel "at home". The only negatives for us were the very limited on-street parking (although there is a long stay car park about 100 yards away) and the steepness of the stairs. Neither of which can be helped. So overall a thoroughly enjoyable stay in one of the best equipped cottages we have tried.

- Paul, May 2024

Really pleased you enjoyed your stay and that Postman's Cottage was a good home base for getting out and about in Bridlington. Thanks for taking the time to do an online review and your kind words in the visitor's book too. Very much appreciated. Property Owner
Nicola May 2024

“Postman’s cottage is fabulous, with a cosy feel but spacious and beautifully decorated with everything you need and more.”

There’s obviously lots of thought and care gone into making it a holiday home to suit everyone. The seating in the conservatory is lovely and a nice spot for a morning cup of tea while watching the birds in the garden. The garden is a beautiful sun trap with seating in different areas to follow the sun throughout the day. The washing facilities and downstairs shower room is great if you have those in your party who are not as mobile to get up and down the stairs to get to the bathroom often. The beds are so comfy we all slept really well while there. It is in an excellent location, halfway between the harbour and the old town, an easy 10 minute stroll either way, with plenty of amenities such as shops, cafes and nice local pubs just around the corner. Ruth, the owner, was lovely to speak to, so thoughtful and helpful, letting us know when the cottage was ready as well as giving lots of helpful advice regarding access, parking and events and things to see in the area during our stay. Postman’s Cottage will be our first choice when looking to stay in Bridlington again as it is wonderful and suits our needs perfectly.

- Nicola, May 2024

Thank you so much for this online review, it's really good to hear that Postman's Cottage was just what you wanted it to be for your stay in Bridlington. I'm glad everyone in your party, the dogs included, were able to enjoy it. Welcome back anytime. Thanks again. Property Owner
Andrew April 2024

“Postman's Cottage was perfect for us,Ruth has made this accommodation into a delightful haven to relax in,the attention to detail was great and allowed us to just unpack and relax.”

We particularly loved the garden and all the plants and fresh flowers in the cottage and the welcome pack was much appreciated. We visited Filey, Humanby Gap, Barnstorm and Bridlington but found that Bridlington beach excludes dogs on the beach from May 1st .

- Andrew, April 2024

Thanks to you both for taking the time to do an online review. Am really pleased you had a good time and that you got out and about in Bridlington and surrounding areas. Yes, seasonal exclusions now apply to East Riding beaches but in Bridlington only affect certain parts of the North and South. They're clearly marked with stickers and very visible when out with the dogs to allow families a safe space to play. I was out with my dog last night on the beach at the top end of the South with unlimited beach access far beyond my dogs (and mine!)running abilities. Beautiful evening. Thanks again. Much appreciated. Welcome back anytime. A downloadable map of the dog and horse exclusion zones can be viewed by visiting the following website: https://orlo.uk/dS0CN Property Owner
Fiona April 2024

“Ruth is a super host and cannot do enough to help you.”

Gerald November 2023

“Had a terrific extended stay at Postman's Cottage and we have already booked to return !”

! We have stayed at vacation homes for over 20 years and Postman's Cottage takes TOP billing. EVERYthing you need including a washer & tumble dryer and the house is clean, clean, clean! Ruth is a super hostess who thinks of all the thoughtful extras. Our first time to Bridlington- a great seaside destination and the cottage is a short walk to it all- Spa, beaches and Old Town/Priory. Glad to be returning for another visit to Postman's Cottage.

- Gerald, November 2023

It's been a pleasure to have you staying at Postman's Cottage for both your original booking and your further extended stay in the UK.

“Postman cottage is lovely.”

Per other reviews extremely clean and tidy. Plenty of utensils. Welcome pack very nice. Comfortable sofas. lovely kitchen. Loved the real plants in the house. Plenty of room for the dogs outside. Garden lovely and very safe for dogs. Walking distance to new town and old town. Tesco superstore over the road. Lots of nice places to eat and drink. Ruth helpful with places to eat out and letting us know when property ready. One of the nicest homes we have stayed. First visit to brid won't be our last.

Peter November 2023

“The Postman's Cottage is a fantastic little gem hidden away in Bridlington.”

Extremely comfortable and welcoming, everything has been thought of and catered for by the owner. The welcome of wine, fudge and fresh flowers on arrival was a lovely additional touch. There was also fresh milk in the fridge. We had a lovely relaxing time at The Postman's Cottage. It is warm, cozy and has a wonderful comfy bed in lovely stylish surroundings. It is only 10 to 15 minutes walk to Bridlington Promenade with access to the beach and a lovely walk to Fraisthorpe and only the same to the Old Town in the opposite direction. They also welcomed our dogs and we were able to park directly outside the cottage. All in all a fabulous place to stay and highly recommended.

- Peter, November 2023

I'm so pleased that you both were able to enjoy your stay at Postman's Cottage and that you, and the dogs (!) got out and about despite a bit of mixed November weather. Thanks so much, I really appreciate you taking the time to do an online review. Property Owner
Vanessa October 2023

“We had a perfect short break away in Postman’s Cottage.”

It was beautifully decorated throughout and the garden was secure for our dogs. Beds were comfortable and the cottage was warm and cosy. The owner was incredibly helpful with any queries and was quick to respond. The cottage is positioned between the sea front and the old town making it accessible to both on foot. We loved it!

- Vanessa, October 2023

Thank you so much for taking the time to do an online review. It's really good to hear that Postman's Cottage was everything you needed it to be for your short break to Bridlington.

“Spotless on arrival and a great welcome pack.”

Roomy and comfortable. Well equipped kitchen. Ground floor WC and shower is handy. Nice conservatory and rear garden. Stairs are steep as described. Good sized bedrooms with comfy beds, good lighting and storage. Bathroom/WC has bath with shower over. A tastefully decorated cottage, close to shops, restaurants, take aways, harbour and beach. A credit to the owner.

Sharon July 2023

“We have recently returned from a two week stay at Postman’s Cottage which is tastefully decorated and very well equipped (-there was even a box of toys for the dog!”

) Ruth had also left some welcome treats which were much appreciated. The courtyard garden was lovely and also secure for the dog. Whilst you can park in the road outside the property, the street is very narrow which may be a bit tight for a larger car and sometimes it can get busy but there is a car park literally around the corner which costs £3.30 for 24 hours-we found that we used this on a couple of occasions. The car park also adjoins a playing field which was useful for exercising the dog in the mornings. The house is literally 5 mins walk from the station (no disturbance from trains) and a large Tesco stores which was very handy. It’s a 10/15 min walk into the town centre/harbour. The Old Ship pub close by has a lovely beer garden which could easily go undiscovered and is dog friendly. Prior to travelling to Bridlington we had downloaded a Treasure Trail treasure hunt from the internet for Bridlington Old Town which was really good fun and we discovered places that we may otherwise have missed -like the Pack Horse pub. Would also recommend a trip to see the puffins at Bempton Cliffs and a trip to Filey which is a dog friendly beach but watch out for the seals! Would definitely recommend a stay at Postman’s Cottage.

- Sharon, July 2023

Thank you so much for doing an online review. It's very much appreciated and is full of useful tips for anyone else considering a stay at Postman's Cottage. So pleased you all enjoyed your 2 week holiday in Bridlington and took advantage of the plenty of dog walks in the area. Sounds like lots of exploring for all of you! Thanks again. Property Owner
Michael July 2023

“Lovely spacious cottage, everything you could want in a holiday cottage, Very comfortable beds, good size bedrooms two bathrooms which was so convenient, nice garden to sit in and have a cup of tea in the morning, and good central location, handy for the local supermarket, but also a nice quiet road.”

- Michael, July 2023

I'm really pleased you all enjoyed your stay at Postman's Cottage, and also that you found the beds comfortable, thank you. The garden is changing almost daily with the weather, cherries already ripe at the moment! Thanks for taking the time to do an online review, will look forward to seeing you again if dates allow. Property Owner

“It’s a lovely cottage, one of the best equipped we have stayed in and a lovely welcome pack.”

Really comfortable bed and bedding something I rarely say and a beautiful garden especially viewed from the chaise longue on a cold day. The only thing I would have liked was a coffee table.

- Marilyn, April 2023

Thank you so much for taking the time to do an online review, it really is much appreciated. So pleased that Postman's Cottage was everything you needed it to be, and that you enjoyed the garden too.

We had a lovely stay walking our dogs on all the local beaches and we didn't want to leave. The cottage has everything you could need and is warm, homely and comfy. The garden is peaceful and secure for the dogs. The cottage was empty before us, but was warm when we arrived and we were given access early which was much appreciated.

We have stayed in many Sykes Cottages, and this is one of the best. The owner has used quality furnishings and bedding etc. to design a beautiful home-from-home.

Maria August 2022

“The Postman's cottage is beautifully finished,spacious, comfortable and very clean.”

The garden is very pretty and a haven. The owner has thought of everything you could need and there were some thoughtful and personal touches too. The location was fab and within easy walking of nearby facilities and the beach. Just a 10 minute drive and you are in beautiful countryside/coastal walks. We really enjoyed Flamborough Head, Dane's Dyke and South Beach which were perfect for our dogs. We had a great day out on the moors too which was about an hour away. A lovely and relaxing holiday.

- Maria, August 2022

I know you had a couple of issues submitting your feedback, so have copied yours below in my response section, as its not showing on the portal. Technical glitch I think! Really pleased you had a good time and online review much appreciated. FYI the council have introduced a new parking scheme on the road which keeps things easier now.

“Beautiful cottage with fine attention to detail, everything you possibly need was available.”

Welcome pack of treats from the owner were lovely. Enclosed garden full of flowers felt like a real home from home. Cottage is just far enough away from the sea front and was peaceful. Road outside house is very narrow but we always managed to find a parking place.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Postman's Cottage.”

It is stylishly decorated throughout. The beds are super comfy. Ruth kindly left us some treats which were much appreciated. The Cottage is well situated for walks to the North beach and the South beach as well as the Old Town and the Harbour. The garden is a lovely place to relax in after all the walks. Thank you, Ruth.

“Ruth was so kind she was really helpful with tips before we went away and left some lovely treats for us which was very much appreciated.”

She has done such a good job with the property. It was gorgeous. The sofas where so comfortable and it was so lovely sitting on the daybed in the sun room looking out at the lovely garden. I really loved the kitchen too. In fact I loved everything about the place and how kind Ruth was. She couldn't be more helpful. I definitely hope to go back again and will recommend the place to people I know. Thankyou For a lovely place Ruth. My doggies loved it too. Was a fab week : )

“We thought the little extras that Ruth provided were a nice and welcoming touch, (bowl of fruit, a few chocolates etc.”

) Also Ruth's texts to make sure we were happy with everything (we were!). Everything was very homely.

Deborah May 2022

“This cottage is really spacious, very well maintained and well decorated with a lovely garden which was safe for our dog.”

Fresh flowers were a lovely touch. Plenty of surfaces to spread out. Ruth, the owner communicated really well via text both before (giving loads of tips for places to go) and during (a little problem with a toilet was fixed the same day). Location is good with a short walk into the town and beach. You might want to choose to park in the pay and display just around the corner if you have a big car as the road outside is very narrow, but we got through in an F-Pace with the mirrors folded in. Ruth will tell you about this before you arrive. All in all, a cracking place to stay.

The property

Perched in the bustling seaside resort of Bridlington in East Riding of Yorkshire, is this lovely two-bedroom Victorian end-terraced house, Postman’s Cottage.

Named after a former owner, William Percival Tye, a postman, who bought it about 100 years ago, on a private loan for just a few shillings a week, and enjoying a prime position along the coast with easy access to the stunning Flamborough Headland Heritage Coast and the Bempton Cliffs, Postman’s Cottage is a wonderful pet-friendly dwelling for couples or a family of four, plus their canine companion, seeking a coastal escape.

Step into the spacious living/dining room, where you can look forward to relaxing in the evenings after a day of adventure in front of your favourite film on the TV.

Completing this space is a handy workspace offering a fixed folding desk and plenty of sockets, should you need to work while in this home-from-home.

Rustle up delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen, featuring a slimline dishwasher, ready to enjoy at the dining table for four or alfresco out on the private patio as your pooch stretches their legs.

When the evening cools, retreat to the sun room where you can continue to enjoy the last of the day’s rays along with your favourite tipple.

Just off the sun room you will find a handy shower/utility room, where you can rinse off sandy toes after day at the beach and freshen up your holiday wardrobe.

Climb the stairs up to the first floor, where you will discover two well-appointed bedrooms, a king-size with TV and a king-size with zip/link, both of which are served by a bathroom, perfect for preparing for the day ahead in style.

Explore your local surroundings, where you will find the welcoming Telegraph Inn just moments away, for when you want to sample the local ales, or if you don’t feel like cooking, why not treat your loved ones to a tasty meal at Supattra Thai or Buddha Bar?

When the chef of the group needs a break, there are the local favourites White's Bakehouse and The Bar With No Name where you can fill up after a day of exploring.

There is also a well-stocked supermarket and convenience store within walking distance for when you need to stock up on essentials.

Pack up your bathing suit, swimming trunks and towels and head straight for the glorious sands of Bridlington South Beach, where you can bathe, tuck-in to fresh fish and chips or paddle the shores.

Enjoy a leisurely stroll along the promenade, where you will find a plethora of eateries available, as well as the town’s picturesque harbour where you can watch the boats come in.

Other attractions you won’t want to miss are the remarkable Bridlington Priory, Bridlington Spa, the John Bull World of Rock and Bridlington Animal Park.

Take the short drive over to Sewerby, where you can visit the grand Georgian house of Sewerby Hall & Gardens housing a zoo and scenic woodland walks.

Continue onto Flamborough, where you will find The Drinking Dinosaur formation, Flamborough Head Golf Club and the beautiful Selwicks Bay.

For the keen twitchers in your party, RSPB Bempton Cliffs is the perfect spot for catching a glimpse of seabirds and puffins, or for simply soaking up the breath-taking views on offer.

All this and more awaits with a stay at Postman’s Cottage.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
