  • "Just had another lovely stay at Sea Glass - just as pristine and spotlessly clean as ever, it never disappoints!"

    And not a hint of the damp smell as mentioned in the reviews below, none whatsoever, and it's so quiet inside considering all the noisy seagulls outside! Will book again soon, D.

  • "Loved the flat, very central for everything."

    There was a bad damp smell every time you entered front door, not so noticeable once you were in, but a lot of air fresheners in the house so I surmise they know there is a problem. Very comfortable flat with all facilities required. Although we had an enjoyable stay we wouldn't rent accommodation without parking again as it was a nightmare trying to find a parking space and ended up just parking up and getting buses.

  • "Stayed here for a week, lovely flat in the centre of Filey."

    Close to beach, shops, pubs, restaurants etc. No parking at the property, and on street parking difficult, so couldn't get parked nearby. Not an issue for us as we didn't use the car much during the week. Train and bus station close by. The flat was nicely decorated, however there was a strong smell of damp when we first entered, which wasn't great. One night we came back to find a large slug in the bathroom! Also as other reviews have said, the sofa in the living is tiny and uncomfortable, not big enough for 2 people to relax in. All in all, a good place but could use one or 2 improvements.

    Parking very limited so didn't move my car during whole stay which was a bit restricting.

    Amazingly quiet for such a central location and so close to the beach.

  • "Just spent a week here over christmas and had a brilliant holiday, place was spotless and very comfy and warm, sofa was a bit hard but it was a sofa settee so you expect that from them, other than that there was nothing we could fault, had all the pots, pans and utensils you needed for a full christmas dinner."

    Even had a bottle or bubbly, mince pies and a christmas card from the owners as a welcome gift, very nice touch. very fast wifi and freeview box were a bonus as well. Our Dobbie loved the place she could sleep on her bed in the front room and still be able to see us in the bedroom so she was relaxed and not anxies as to where we were. The place is in a fantastic location, right next to an italian, pub and chinesse and 1 min walk to all the shops. almsot all the places were dog friendly as well. Parking was not too bad, always managed to get in a spot within 100 yards from the property after days out. All in all a very nice clean, tidy and cosy stay and will be booking again in the future.

    Thank you Mark, you are welcome back anytime…. Really glad you enjoyed your stay Property Owner

    All within 10mins walk. Modern airy ground floor flat, with all mod cons and plenty of kitchen equipment, towels and other bits and pieces, eg bottle opener, torch and even dog bowls!. Netflfix and Freeview access easy to use. .....Downside , had to park 4 streets away as no space near at all. Over the 3 days as soon as space free , another car shot into it. Also no private outdoor space , and front door onto main street so if you have a dog its a constant "leashing up" for walkies!.....Also pleeaase change the uncomfortable bed settee in lounge , its not the best, sorry. ....All in all though , location ,price and facilities would make us visit again.

    Thanks for the feedback John, I’m glad you had a lovely stay… You’re welcome back anytime Property Owner

  • "Great location and easy to find, love that it's dog friendly, ideal for visiting all attractions, good public transport links locally, very welcoming and modern, good price, very well equipped with everything you need."

    Thoroughly enjoyed our week's stay, our only small grumble for us was the sofa was very creaky and uncomfortable after a long day of walking and exploring, would be nice to be able to put your feet up. And the 9am departure was a little too early for us due to having to rely on family driving over 2 hours to collect us. We would however happily stay again and also recommend.

  • "Lovely little apartment with everything you need inside and outside the property, shop, pubs, beach all within seconds/minutes walking distance, my one and only negative bit of feedback would be that the sofa in the lounge wasn’t all that comfortable for two people to relax on after a long walk towards the end of a day… one of us was relaxed on the sofa while the other was bolt up right on the Chesterfield style chair… perhaps a pouffe or something to put your feet up on could rectify this, however I appreciate the lack of space."

  • "Beautiful location & beautiful accommodation."

    Minor thing for us was how uncomfy & noisy the sofa was, it was hard to relax & unwind before going to bed after a long day exploring the coat. Other than that it was just perfect & we would definitely stay again.

  • "Sea Glass is a fabulous place to stay!"

    Excellent location and there is everything you could possibly need inside, plus it is furnished to a high standard, very tastefully, and really feels like a holiday escape with all the nautical/seaside touches. It's very quiet insde as well which is a bonus with the very early morning seagulls in Filey over the summer months! The hosts are also fantastic which makes a difference too, and we'll definitely be booking in again, it was perfect for what we were looking for.

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.
