"We were a bit disappointed that there was no milk, tea or coffee upon our arrival to the cottage for us to make a drink after our journey to Filey."
There was only one toilet roll to last us for the 10 days plus one black bin liner.
The dvd was not in working order and neither was the PlayStation. We ended up buying our own DVD player but we appreciate this was our choice. There was an issue with the tv aerial over the first couple of days but Sue was extremely helpful and got this sorted out for us as soon as she could get somebody out to look at it.
Other than these minor issues, the bungalow is beautiful and is in an ideal location for Filey town and the beach. It’s in a very quiet area which we loved and the walks to the country gardens each morning and evening with the dog were perfect. The enclosed garden was ideal for the dog and we could rest knowing he was secure and safe.
There was everything we needed in the bungalow and it felt like home. We would certainly stay at Park View again in the future and we would highly recommend it to family and friends.

There where a few little niggles bathroom blind and shower and couldn't get the TV working in the living room. However as I said just minor niggles which would not put us off from returning. Clean close to all amenities and some wonderful dog walks nearby for Nancy our staffie

"This was our first time at Park View and really happy at where it is."
The Cottage is on a really beautiful and peaceful estate and only minutes away from the town centre and beach. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything that you needed and the cottage was cosy and warm. The shower was really powerful and the bed comfortable. The only downside for us was that the main bedroom was very small, the bed would have been better in the larger room for us. We spent everyday finding new places to walk and exploring the place. Although Filey is a busy place it has such a tranquillity about it. Can't wait to go back to Filey.

"Park View is a lovely clean bungalow in a wonderful location with a lovely garden."
I don't like marking it so low because had everything been in good order it would have been a smiley face for all.
Unfortunately, the central heating didn't work, I reported it to Sykes and the caretaker both were very concerned.
Also reported that the shower didn't work properly, it was mixer taps to the bath as well and they ran at the same time so it was a trickle.
Reported the door on the wardrobe not closing properly.
Reported the radiator in the bathroom was slowly dripping from the top right hand corner down the radiator.
As for the heating, the owner kindly arranged for 2 oil heaters to be delivered. When they arrived we tried to assemble them, but 1 wheel on each was too wide to fit easily into the holes, at that point we didn't think we could force them, we informed the caretaker The gas men were supposed to come Tues, they didn't turn up. I informed the caretaker, she enquired and they had gone 3hrs in the opposite direction!
The caretaker had mentioned me leaving the key, I didn't feel comfortable doing that and had explained that my husband could be there in the mornings whilst I walked the dog.
The gas men were now supposed to come on the Wednesday, plus a plumber to repair the shower. The plumber did arrive at about 1.00ish
He was very nice and apologetic, told us that it needed a new tap and he didn't carry them, he told us that he wasn't allowed to do the job without someone being in the property. He had tried to contact the caretaker a few times. I rang the caretaker explaining the situation and passed the phone to the plumber who also informed her of the situation.
The plumber left, the gas men still hadn't arrived. We went out around 1.20ish rather fed up with the situation at this point. We don't like complaining but do expect to be warm, take a shower and time to explore the beautiful coast and countryside without worry of repair work needing to be done whilst there.
On the Thursday we tried to assemble the heaters again and managed at last to get the wheels to fit in the holes, warmth of some sort at last.
Such a shame this dragged on so long, had everything been in good order it would have all been wonderful.
Thankyou,
Regards Joy
We addressed this promptly and did everything we could - it is not our fault British Gas Homecare who we pay extra to, so they can do urgent call outs, made major mistakes by sending the heating engineer to our home address which they admitted was a major error. We ordered the heaters on Amazon prime so they were with the guests the following day. Not our fault that BG didn't repair the tap promptly or even take a tap. I have complained to them.

(We did have fantastic weather for January which was an added bonus) Comfortable accommodation, warm, well equipped & in a great location. Parking & a gated garden also a bonus. Our dog enjoyed her walks in the nearby country park & along the beach. Town an easy walk away with a Tesco for essential needs. Lots of walking trails from doorstep. Recommend

The property smelt very damp and musty despite having window's and doors open while we're in the smell was still bad when we left. The smell transferred onto coats hung it hallway. Which spoilt our holiday somewhat!

"We have stayed at park view before but we think it is looking very tired now."
Plus that there was a leak from the bathroom and water was coming through the flooring . Fortunately I took a few doggy towels and I had to put those down to dry the floor. By the way the flooring had started to lift away we think that this had been happening for a while so therefore should have been reported before our stay. We did inform the Housekeeper and she organised a plumber. Also a walk in shower would be appropriate. Other than that we always love our holidays in Filey.
Thank you for your feedback for Park View. We are sorry that you felt the property was very tired, when we queried this you advised that you thought the property should have a walk in shower. Unfortunately, during your stay there was leak in the bathroom which had not been reported previously, as soon as we were aware of this we had arranged for a plumber to resolve the issue the next day. We are happy to hear that you still overall enjoyed your stay with us. Property Owner

"Lovely bungalow near to everything, I will be recommending it to friends, the position is perfect and it was spot on for the five of us."
On the down side, the lawn could have been cut, it was far too long and the garden is full of weeds. It didn't feel like cleaners had been in that morning and given it a good clean, maybe we were the first in. A teapot would be a nice touch for five people, but overall I would go back because of where it is situated. We saved our glass and took it to Tesco at the end of the week as per the instructions, but two Tesco men didn't know where the recycle glass bin was so we had to take it home.
Thank you for your feedback in regards to Park View. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at our bunglaow. Regarding the garden, we do have a gardener that does attend to the lawn, however, due to the teribble rain we have been having recently, he is currently catching up on his rounds. We will bring this to his attention and ensure the lawn does get mowed and the weeds taken care off. We hope to see you again soon!

"After many previous visits it was very sad to see the once high standards at Park View had dropped really badly."
Mould in the bathroom, bedrooms used as dumping grounds, badly stained t-towels, locks hanging off of cupboards, the key safe was broken and difficult to use, a garage door that blew open with every gust of wind, cracks in the walls, countless remote controls none of which had any instructions for them and some, 2 x SKY didn't even appear to have anything to control.
The worst thing at all for me was the daily droning from the noisy construction site a few meters away at the bottom of the garden. This really ought to be mentioned in the Sykes listing for Park View. Anyone hoping for a nice quiet break has no chance at all. Very disappointing.

"The remote control for the dvd was missing."
Contacted the manager, who knew nothing about it, and wasn't particulary helpful either. She talked through using unit manually so there was limited functionality, but this looses a lot of the functions of a dvd, not to mention difficult with limited mobility, not a big issue people might think but as this was our evening entertainment spoilt it , and IT SHOULDN'T HAPPEN.......not at these prices equipment should always be checked. The appeal of this bungalow, is certainly it's location which is fantastic, is it about to be spolit with the huge building programme at the rear?
Thank you for your feedback, I'm sorry to hear that you were unable to locate the DVD remote. Equipment is checked before every guests arrival and this has since been located. We are unsure why you were unable to find this during your stay but are very sorry it impacted your experience.

"Bungalow is in a lovely quiet location close to the town and Country Park."
Unfortunately there were a few niggles in that the lid of the peddle bin was broken so every time we put things in it we had to take off the bin lid instead of it being hands free by using the peddle. Some of the crockery was cracked and chipped which is unhygienic. Although there was a DVD player in the lounge the two plugs available were used so no where to plug the DVD player in it needed an extension lead. Would have liked details on eating places in Filey i.e takeaways etc. Apart from that it was ideal. This comment is not specific to this accommodation but it would be helpful when listing any accommodation to advise what is in the welcome pack and what will be supplied as in tea towel, dish cloth wash-up liquid, dishwasher tablets, toilet roll etc

5 mins walk to the country park & beach 10 mins to the town centre if you are able bodied. Be aware parking is a nightmare in the town centre & not much better along the beach so well worth walking if you are able!
Table in the kitchen was useless to sit round for even 2 people & got in the way of using the kitchen would rather have not had it at all too big, lounge furniture was too bulky for the room and too much of it. Suite is old saggy and uncomfortable really does need changing. Toilet was a problem flushing with 5 adults using it.
However the single beds were full size and comfortable as was the double. The heating system heats up very quickly. Shower was much more powerful than I expected.
Sea front is beautiful and bungalow in quiet neighbourhood. Some changes of furniture & layout of the lounge would allow a usable table & chairs would make this bungalow perfect location is ideal.
