Cottage in Filey near Golden Sand Beaches

What a gem! We felt at home straight away. There was plenty of space in the kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms for all our bits. Whilst it doesn't have a sea view, you are less than 5 minutes walk to the gorgeous beach. The town has a good selection of independent shops and restaurants and cafes, with a Tesco store 15 minutes walk away. Glen Gardens are a 2 minute walk away, and perfect for a walk around and ice cream if you didn't want to go down to the beach. Back to the house.... the lovely little courtyard garden with it's 6 seater table and chairs was just right for our evening meals. The large downstairs toilet was great for storing our beach chairs. The shower in the family bathroom was nice and powerful and very spacious. All in all, a lovely place to use as your base for exploring the area.

Overall a lovely stay. Was cut short by a family emergency which was a shame. Helpful hosts when we arrived at the wrong location due to our own error. It was a shame that the property was so overlooked- not the prettiest views out of the windows. very creaky floorboards (proved tricky when trying to sneak around and keep the toddler asleep!) - but otherwise cannot complain!

Great place for our extended family Christmas. The house is so comfortable, clean and well equipped. We loved the boathouse and would definitely stay again.

Stayed 3 nights with friends at the Boathouse, Filey. The property was tucked away but was great for access to the beach and town. Although there was no parking immediately outside the property, there was ample on street parking nearby. The house was well laid out with a small patio area and a downstairs loo which was useful. The only minor gripe on layout was that one of the twin rooms had very little floor/movement space. The beds were set out head to foot in an L shape, okay for little ones but a little challenging for older adults. The equipment provided was very good, the cleanliness was also good, apart from the fact that when we arrived we found the previous occupants had not cleaned up after their dog on the patio area! We did have some trouble getting the television to work in the lounge and in the end we had to swap over the Freeview box from a bedroom TV, not an ideal situation. Overall, despite a few problems, we had a very enjoyable one weekend in the boathouse cottage.
