There are also a few restaurants and bars/pubs if you just want to relax and unwind. The train station a 5-minute walk from the property for those of you who prefer to travel further afield.
The rspb bird sanctuary at Bempton Cliffs is just along the coast, where in the spring you can see the puffins perched. The medieval city of York is just an hour away, voted every year as one of the top ten cities to visit, with its wonderful cathedral, museums, theatres and shopping. Beach 700 yards. Shop 250 yards, pub and restaurant 300 yards.

We had a comfortable and relaxing stay at Anchors Away in Filey. The flat was very well equipped and in a good position for the beaches, walks and the town. Very convenient for local amenities and good in all weathers.

Great location for beach walks and seaside parks. Filey is quiet and has quite good transport links too, good for those without a car. The apartment was comfortably furnished and the sea view was lovely. The oven overcooked things - maybe the thermostat has gone? How to adjust the heating remains a mystery to us, so we found one bedroom hot and one cool and heaters coming on at odd times during the day. Then again, we couldn't work out how to use the DVD player either and in the absence of instructions we leave stuff well alone and go for another stroll along the coast.

Much better than I expected. Exceptionally clean and well equipped with high quality kitchen items. It's just far enough from the centre to make parking less of a problem. The stairs could be a problem (second floor) but are not steep and are divided in to four short flights.There is a delightful bay window with a view of the sea and it gets the sun all day. The only mistake I made was to get a lot of shopping on the first day, necessitating several trips up and down the stairs!
