    “Property wasn't cleaned or maintained to the holiday rental standard.”

    There were dog hair on the carpets and spider webs on all the windows and corner of the ceiling. Bathroom knob kept falling off. One of the kitchen bulbs wasnt even working. Toilets were not even flushed after putting bleach. No basic facilities like handwash or tea/coffee/sugar, kitchen foil, spare bin bags etc were provided. These are things available at every airbnb. The dining table wasnt suitable for indoors. I ended up hurting myself twice during the stay and getting bruises while ...

    There were dog hair on the carpets and spider webs on all the windows and corner of the ceiling. Bathroom knob kept falling off. One of the kitchen bulbs wasnt even working. Toilets were not even flushed after putting bleach. No basic facilities like handwash or tea/coffee/sugar, kitchen foil, spare bin bags etc were provided. These are things available at every airbnb. The dining table wasnt suitable for indoors. I ended up hurting myself twice during the stay and getting bruises while saving my baby crawling around, so if you're travelling with an infant, I wouldn't recommend this place at all. It is not at all safe. There is no electric car charger within 5 miles. It was overall very inconvenient and disappointing stay that spoiled our first Christmas with my lil girl. Such a shame!!

    I am very disappointed with your comments, however I think my overall rating and other reviews speak for themselves. We departed just prior to your arrival having specifically attended to prepare the apartment for you for Christmas, I personally conducted the clean to a very high standard. You did book a pet friendly apartment, I feel it is inevitable that there may be the odd dog hair missed despite my very best efforts. There are 5 lights in the kitchen, the main light and 4 under pelmet additional lights, 1 of which does require replacing this will be done once able to source the correct fitment. After cleaning, under rim blue scented disinfectant was applied to the toilets. No defective bathroom knob has been found. This is not an Airbnb, unfortunately the items you mentioned are not provided by site Housekeeping services and many of The Bay owners are located elsewhere, we are 2 hours away. This is our personal holiday home and has been individually furnished by us, the bespoke dining set is of our choosing and clearly visible on our advertising photos, we attended over New Year with our 7 month old Grandson without issue. I did contact you and gave you directions regarding on site car charging points which are approximately 500 meters away from the apartment, there are also charging points at Tesco in Filey 2 miles away.

The property

Filey 3 miles.

This modern first floor apartment is situated on The Bay holiday village complex, just three miles from the seaside town of Filey.

With excellent on-site facilities, the apartment appeals to families wanting to enjoy a traditional seaside holiday, but with easy access to many nearby attractions and the gently rolling countryside of the Yorkshire Wolds.

Inside, all areas are tastefully decorated and furnished with excellent quality furniture and bespoke dining table and chairs, there is an open plan living area, with a galley style, contemporary kitchen and a large and comfortable corner sofa, perfect for relaxing on whilst watching the 42’’ TV at the end of the day.

The double bedroom has the added advantage of an en-suite shower room, ensuring no queues in the morning, and completing the accommodation is an adult bunk bedroom and a separate bathroom with all towels and linen of a high quality.

This lovely self-catering apartment is well-positioned on the complex and is surrounded by well-kept communal grounds, with two small lakes and picnic areas.

On the complex, there is a swimming pool with steam room, sauna and gym, with beauty facilities, tennis courts, archery, target shooting, fishing and bike hire also available.

The on-site cafe and pub offer good food, or guests can enjoy a barbecue on the communal lawns, plus free WiFi is also available at the pub.

A pleasant stroll brings you directly onto a lovely sandy beach using The Bay’s private access, perfect for building sandcastles, paddling in the sea and exercising your four legged friends!

The popular seaside resort of Filey offers an unspoilt coble landing, beautiful gardens and long promenades.

Enjoy a spot of beachcombing on Filey Brigg or partake in afternoon tea overlooking the beach from one of the hotels.

A little further along the coast lies Flamborough Head and Bempton Nature Reserve, with bracing clifftop walks abounding with nesting sea birds, while the vibrant town of Scarborough lies close by, with its many attractions.

For those who enjoy sea fishing, there are plenty of places to cast off from the harbour or on the beach, or for a small charge, why not contact one of the many local fishing boats in the harbour and take to the sea for a few hours of deep sea fishing.

The town of Scarborough is also famous for the surf where at weekends you can find the surfers riding the waves on the North and South beaches, if you can’t surf but want to learn, surf lesson are available on the North beach.

A perfect base for a fun-filled family holiday.

About the location

FILEY

Scarborough 7.7 miles; Bridlington 10.5 miles.

Filey is a traditional English seaside resort with a friendly atmosphere, offering a restful holiday, making an ideal place to stay for walkers and wildlife watchers at any time of the year. A real gem on the Yorkshire coast. A fishing town on the North East Coast, Filey has enjoyed a reputation of being a resort since Victorian times, set beside the magnificent Filey Bay, a long stretch of beautiful sand, with Filey Brigg and its shallow rockpools to the north. Filey Brigg is a low headland that protects Filey Bay and provides good bird watching and seawatching opportunities all year round. The 400 ft high Bempton Cliffs (RSPB Reserve) to the south of Filey Bay are home to over 250,000 seabirds in the summer. Gannets, kittiwakes, puffins, guillimots and razorbills all nest there. Gannets are regularly seen diving for fish in Filey Bay. The Brigg area is an ideal place to watch for common and rarer waders, seabirds and migrating warblers,finches and thrushes. As well as seabirds, seals and other marine life, such as porpoises dolphins and minke whales can be seen in the sea around the Brigg. The town itself seems almost caught in a time warp, retaining much of its character with individual shops, narrow paths and ginnels. There is a small coble landing, a slipway where local fishermen keep their boats, plus delightful beach chalets that can be hired through the summer months. The bay is edged with two promenades and there are various gardens, where brass bands play on a Sunday afternoon. This small town is family orientated, crazy golf and candy floss. Also in Filey there is the Filey Dams Nature Reserve, a wetland reserve where common and rare waders and wildfowl can be seen as well as autumn gatherings of swallows, sand martins and house martins. Also there is Parish Wood (just off Sycamore Avenue) an unexpected gem that offers a wealth of wildlife. Willow warbler, chiffchaff, blackcap and tree sparrows breed there and a wide variety of other species are regularly seen such as great spotted woodpeckers and sparrow hawks. Parish Wood also provides shelter and food for a wide range of migrant bird species such as goldcrests, pied and spotted flycatchers, warblers, finches, thrushes and woodcocks. A short drive brings you to the busier town of Scarborough where for family fun you can visit the Alpamare Waterpark, a waterpark unlike anything the UK has ever seen before, as well as plenty to explore and discover in this lovely area.

Note: Between the dates of 4th November to 16th December the leisure centre will be under renovation with no access to the pool, sauna and steam room. The gymnasium will still be accessible.
However, there will be access to the Flower of May campsite swimming pool Monday to Friday. Access is complimentary with the Bay leisure pass.
