The property

Set in a desirable position in the heart of the seaside town of Filey is this traditional, second-floor apartment, Flat 5.

Just a short walk from a range of amenities, including Filey beach, Flat 5 is a great base for a retreat to the coast.

With one double bedroom, the property sleeps up to four with the addition of a sofa bed in the lounge.

Once you’ve found parking, make your way up to the second floor, entering into the open-plan living space where you’ll find a well-appointed kitchen, complete with all the appliances required for a self-catered adventure.

Enjoy your morning coffee at the dining table and talk over what the day ahead will bring and where to explore next, before preparing a picnic lunch to eat later.

On a rainy afternoon, collapse on the sofa and tune into the TV to catch up on your favourite shows.

When it's time to get some rest, freshen up in the bathroom before making yourself at home in the bedroom, complete with a double bed and storage space.

Filey is an exceptional holiday base; pack your beach bag and head down to the glorious sands, perfect for dipping your toes in the sea or simply soaking up the rays, before taking a stroll along the coastline towards Filey Brigg, a low headland protecting Filey Bay, making for a superb opportunity to catch glimpses of the local wildlife – maybe catch a crab or two for dinner!

Enjoy a stroll along the promenade with its brightly coloured beach huts and ornamental gardens before stopping off at a restaurant or takeaway to refuel; there’s plenty to choose from!

Just outside the town lies a country park with an animal sanctuary nearby, whilst for walkers, Filey marks the start of the Cleveland Way long distance trail.

Those nature lovers will be drawn to the RSPB Reserve at Bempton, home to puffins and kittiwakes clustered on the high cliffs.

However you choose to spend your holiday time, a break at Flat 5 is sure to bring fond memories.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.

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.
