Lovely house in a superb location. Very comfortable and nicely decorated. Had everything we needed. A home from home.There was a lovely surprise welcome pack which was very thoughtful. We got lots of useful information in advance of our visit.The walk to the beach takes about 10 minutes. We caught the local bus into Filey which was really handy.Would definitely visit again.

everything was fine we enjoyed it very much. The details state that there is a welcome try - we did not feel that the few tea bags, mostly herbal and some milk really covered that. wasn't a problem at all for us as we had our own supplies. Not a complaint really just an observation.

Lovely house, has everything you could need. Great for visiting York and some fun down on the beach. Description of the facilities in the holiday park on the Hoseasons website needs updating as the putting green was not available (long grass), no table tennis, and the football field seemed to be missing.
