This contemporary, first-floor apartment rests on a quiet estate within The Bay Holiday Park in Filey. Just ten minutes from the beach and a host of amenities, as well as offering access to a park and basketball court, The Starfish Shack is a wonderful couple's retreat for a seaside getaway on the North Yorkshire coast. Step inside the property and discover a contemporary style with touches of a nautical theme throughout. Head into the neutrally decorated, open-plan living room with laminate flooring and cosy seating area with a Smart TV, a dining table where you can enjoy a romantic home-cooked meal together, and a well-equipped kitchen with wooden units and plenty of worktop space for preparing delicious meals. The king-size bedroom is bright and spacious with a lovely beach theme, feature wall, ample storage space and a TV, so you can enjoy your favourite shows from the comfort of your bed, served by the fully-tiled, contemporary bathroom, offering a shower over bath, so you have the option of how you wish to start each day. Outside there is off-road parking and a small grass area at the front of the property, while the park and basketball court can be accessed just around the corner. There are a few restaurants and shops within a mile of the property, while the beach at Filey Bay, voted the UK’s Best Beach in 2018, offers a 5-mile stretch of sand that stretches as far as Filey Brigg, a long and narrow peninsula on the cliffside and a site of Special Scientific Interest. Enjoy a stroll around the scenic Filey Brigg Country Park, partake in a round of golf at Filey Golf Club and spend an afternoon exploring the Filey Bird Garden and Animal Park. A few miles down the coast brings you to the Flamborough Headland Heritage Coast, a rugged peninsula with sweeping sea views, white cliffs and a charming 17th century lighthouse, as well as the RSPB Bempton Cliffs Seabird Centre, a nature reserve where you can enjoy birdwatching and walking a variety of scenic nature trails. Head north up the coast to the popular seaside resort of Scarborough, with its two sandy beaches, separated by its imposing 12th century castle on the headland, as well as the North Bay Heritage Railway, a museum, Alpamare UK water park, SEA Life Centre and the Japanese-inspired, tranquil gardens of Peasholm Park. From here, you can easily access the North York Moors National Park and the lovely Dalby Forest, offering woodland trials for cyclists and hikers amidst 8000 acres. The Starfish Shack is a great base from which to explore North Yorkshire's coastline and countryside.
Located on a beautiful stretch of Yorkshire coastline, the Bay Filey is fronted by six miles of golden, sandy beach. Filey is a popular choice with tourists; an elegant and tranquil seaside town boasting an award-winning beach, charming shops and plenty of activities for all the family. Filey Beach was voted the UK’s Best Beach in 2018, and you can try your hand at watersports or just settle down in a deck chair with a good book and enjoy the sunshine. Discover Filey Brigg, where you can walk to the tip of the narrow rock peninsula during low tide and the clifftop above The Brigg forms part of the Country Park, which is popular with picnickers, birdwatchers and hang-gliders.
