Great stay in a really lovely cottage
Have just arrived back after a very relaxing short break in Greenwich Cottage. Communication with Nick was great, from the booking process through to our visit. The cottage was very well equipped and comfortable with plenty of room for us all.
The cottage was ideally located to visit Filey, Scarborough and Whitby and it was a 15 minute walk to the beach.
We ate at the onsite restaurant one night which was fine, if a little busy, but the rest of the evenings we cooked in the well equipped kitchen. This was followed by a few family games which were supplied, uno went down particularly well!
All in all we had a great stay, and wouldn't hesitate to return.

Thank you for your lovely review Kristy - it's always good to hear that our guests have enjoyed their stay. You will be very welcome back
The property was exactly as advertised. The fact that it was on a site with its own dog friendly Pub, Gym with pool and convenience store made it all the more appealing. There were six of us plus a dog and we had plenty of room. We never had the opportunity to use the outside seating area and BBQ due to the weather but noticed that the space outside was clean and well maintained. The beach is a short walk from the cottage and we walked along it into Filey...our dog loved it.
The BT TV box signal was a bit hit and miss but apart from that we had a very enjoyable time. We would definitely visit again.
Fantastic place to stay everything you need under one roof and more, very relaxing and would definitely recommend as a centre for touring the area. My only bit of extra advice is not to use the John Paul Jones on site pub to dine as it is overpriced and poor quality food.
This is our fourth time at the Bay staying in the same type of property and this was by far the best! The house was spotless and the communication from the owner was brilliant. Would definitely recommend and we will be returning again as soon as we can.
Property just as described, everything you need for a short break. Nick was easy to communicate with and a problem re the cleaning was quickly responded to and dealt with. The Bay site is well organised with decent facilities, John Paul pub a bit of a let down.
Paint work looks a bit tired in places
Mirrors are in wrong positions
Overall was enjoyable even though nothing open due to corona

Many thanks for your booking Sue. The property is completely redecorated every 2 years and was last done November 2019, so I was a little surprised about the paintwork comment, however I had a good look as soon as I could re-visit the house after lockdown and repainted a couple of small patches where cases or similar had left a mark on the wall.
Very happy with the property, owners thought of everything needed, all we had to get was food
Real home from home, lovely property, well worth a visit

Lovely house, child friendly location
Seven of us, four adults and three children, spent four lovely nights at Greenwich Cottage, 27 The Parade. The cottage is in a brilliant location - 5 minutes to the pub and swimming pool, 15 minutes to the beach. The weather was mixed, but didn't stop us walking to Filey along the beach, playing in the park and exploring the area. The cottage was perfect for us - clean, warm, well equipped, really good communal spaces and bedrooms. The back of the cottage overlooks a grassed area which looks perfect for summer barbecues. We all agreed that we would love to return for another visit - in fact we didn't want to come home!

Lovely house in perfect surroundings.
This is our second stay at this property. We love it! The beds are so comfortable and we have never seen any towels bigger or fluffier than those provided! This property caters for everything you need and is within a 10 minute walk of the beautiful beach. The on-site amenities are great but would recommend Hunmanby for pubs, butchers, deli etc. The Piebald Inn (Hunmanby) is a definite must if you stay here. Communication with the owners is fantastic. Can not recommend this place highly enough!
