• "We had a great stay."

  Thank you! Didn't spend much time in the property as the weather was great, but the house was good. I agree with other guests that paintwork etc is in need of a refresh on places but not as much as some places we've stayed in, so all in all this was good value for money. Places are bound to get knocked about a bit by different guests coming and going. The owners have worked hard to think of ensuring everything is there for you, including plenty of crockery, cutlery etc. If Sky TV really matters to you it's worth noting that the app is available on the TV but you need your own subscription to this and to all other apps including BBC iPlayer. This wasn't a problem to us once we'd realised this was the case.

• "We spent a relaxing week in this great property."

  It was warm & comfortable and very well equipped with some excellent small touches that made it feel like a home from home. We would be more than happy to stay again. The Bay was a very pleasant surprise - we had never been before. Easy, direct access to the beach plus other walks straight from the complex. We have holidayed in North Yorkshire several times as there is lots to do here, and in the East Riding - don’t miss the seals at Flamborough Head.

• "Upon arrival there was a thoughtful, written message from Maria explaining that the reason for the fresh paint smell was due to a delayed delivery of fire doors."

  Everything had been considered including a welcome pack of useful items eg washing up liquid, small tea towel, dish cloth, tea, coffee and biscuits. There were also clearly printed notes in the house to explain, advise and help the visitor understand the workings of the facilities. The house is well situated, close to all the on-site amenities and the beautiful beaches are easily reached. My Boxer

• "This is our third time at the property now and it really is like a home from home."

  Everything has been thought of and the welcome pack is always a nice touch. The only suggestion I have this time is that if the cleaners turn the fridge etc right down that they make it known/clear, that way you could turn it up straight away rather than having to thrown out half your groceries because they spoilt

  .. and of course Filey and the Wolds. The only slight issue was no instructions for washing machine, so couldn't get dryer to work.

  Sorry you couldn’t find the instructions for the washing machine. There is a folder in the kitchen with instructions for all the white goods. We will check that the washing machine instructions are still there when we next go over. Thanks for letting me know. Property Owner

• "The house is lovely, it’s our second time staying and I’ve already booked twice for 2025."

  I think this time though the cleaners lacked a little and missed some things, which is not the owners fault at all We had an issue with the microwave and after contacting Sykes the owner called me straight away which I thought was exceptional

• "The property was in good order and had all we needed to make a comfortable stay."

  We have stayed on the Bay five times now and this property is a first with the walk in shower to cater for all abilities which was an added bonus. There is a number of small maintenance items that need attending at some stage, the shower door has a screw located at the door runner left hand side at top that needs fixing to the door track wheel. The glass cabinet in the kitchen the door needs some adjustment as it sticks when opening and closing. The cabinet lights two of them kept flickering, one of them you could hear arcing as it makes and breaks contact. Overall we would stay here again should we look at returning to Filey in 2025 or thereafter

• "Nice sized holiday home."

  In a great location which is only a minute walk to the pool/pub and a short walk to the beach. The home has everything you need. It was nice and warm and comfy beds . The only negative is that it is looking a bit tired although that was probably reflected by the price. We would stay again.

• "Overall we had a lovely time at the Bay."

  Cottage was cosy, clean & comfortable. Good instructions for facilities. Walk in shower much better than a shower over the bath. A few of niggles, righthand side of patio doors wouldn't open. Freezer door kept falling off therefore a build up of ice. Glass cupboard door felt as though it would drop off anytime. Otherwise we were very happy with the cottage.

  Spotlessly clean with attention to detail. Obviously on a complex so not for those who seek a rural retreat . We loved the easy access to the beach and the added bonus of pool and steam room. Only downside is all spaces are open so no garden for dog/ children. We love the area and this was a great base . Booked the Bay again in June sadly this property was already reserved .

  … A beautiful well appointed cottage, everything you could possibly need and more, welcome pack is a lovely touch and a great starter for newbys that haven’t been to the bay before. The cleaning could be better ( as we’ve noticed in other cottages/apartments ) and the bedding ( duvet cover ) was bitty and extremely tired looking, obviously out of the owners hands and really didn’t detract from the fabulous break we enjoyed, just thought it should be mentioned.

  Blue Skye has everything that you would need and is in a lovely location. Particularly love the layout of this property and having a double bed in the second bedroom is a great idea. Mostly there are single beds or bunk beds. For us extra marks for comfortable beds as in the majority of accommodations the mattresses are far too soft. Thank you.

• "The cottage was very pleasant."

  It provided a great base to make into our personal space. It was clean and had lots of additional extra equipment e.g. icemaker, slow cooker etc. The listing on the website shows a picture of a bath. A shower unit has been installed in 2021. Not a problem, but do like a soak. The property had its usual wear and tear issues, but in view of footfall not surprised. My view is if we all treat it as our own, the next guest is less inclined to feel that the property needs further cleaning. We had a great stay. Thank you.

  The house was very clean and comfortable and the little welcome packs were a nice touch. We would definitely stay there again. The only down side we found was that the pub John Paul Jones was priced way over the top - a large glass of wine and a pint of beer was £15.00. really not on considering the size of the complex.

• "The cottage was fabulous, every creature comfort you could imagine and so much more."

  We’ve stayed at the bay Filey a few times now and find the privately owned property’s are far in front of the holding company’s. An abundance of tea and coffee in all forms as well as a welcome pack which apart from the biscuit ( which were scrumptious ) was not really necessary as with the cleaning welcome pack, so many products under the sink ! The bed was very comfortable and the shower always hot, plenty of towels and clean smelling bedding. The large jar of dog treats were very much enjoyed! The only down side was the dirty finger marks on most of the cupboards in the kitchen ( of which I cleaned most of them off ) and the small tvs upstairs. Over all a wonderful week of home from home relaxation, wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this cottage Blue Skye to any one who asked. Lovely.

• "Very very nice cottage, would definitely consider going again."

  The beds were exceptionally comfy and very good quality, mattresses, bedding and pillows. You may laugh but when you sleep well the holiday is a holiday! The place accepts dogs but as non dog owners we were pleased to find that it didn't smell of dogs and wasn't much evidence of them being there before us. Very homely and well equipped. Loved our stay. The bay itself is a lovely well kept resort. quiet (at least in January ) we had no parking issues and enjoyed the use of the archery, table tennis and swimming pool. Proximity to beach is fab down a well maintained path. Only improvement I could think of is an outside tap for washing boots (and dogs) after a welly walk on the beach. Perhaps the site has one that I didn't see?

  Location is perfect. However we have a one year old daughter and we didn't realise there was no bath until we got there. We will definitely recommend this house to our friends.

  We do have a brand new, collapsible child bath suitable for children 0-6 years which is stored with the travel cot in the landing cupboard, as stated in Sykes information as well as the house directory. Also in the bathroom there is a bath stool for the parent to sit on when bathing the child. We will put a notice in the bathroom to re-iterate this information. Property Owner

  The only issue we had was with the parking, very difficult to find a space close to the property, this was not helped by one of the people close by having people over for the day taking up numerous spaces. I think this is something the resort/sykes should be looking at. Also the pub on site is very overpriced for the menu on offer.

  Really enjoyed our stay here, appreciated the welcome pack and use of the table tennis bats. The welcome guide the owners provide was useful too. Didn't give full marks for everything as the double bed in bedroom 1 wasn't comfortable (far too soft!), the house could have been cleaner on arrival (dusty in places, house didn't smell clean) and the dishwasher isn't very good. Unfortunately the prices for 2022 have almost doubled (thanks Covid!) so no plans to rebook at the moment.

  The site itself is absolutely great, very clean and well maintained withe lots of amenities. The property was very clean, roomey and very well equipped and set in a very convenient location. The one thing that took the edge of it was the downstairs toilet which was broken, I was told about this, but I was told it would be repaired by the time we got there. This was not the case as it was not fixed by the time we left. When we had family visitors for a day it meant we had one toilet for seven of us, which was not ideal,hence why I booked a house with two toilets. Putting this aside I will definitely book again for a short break.
