Guests say
West House Farm in Filey is a spacious and well-equipped cottage, praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and thoughtful touches. Guests enjoyed the ample amenities, cosy log fire, and the convenience of en-suite bathrooms. The local pub's proximity and the property's suitability for large groups and families were also appreciated.
The property is consistently described as spotlessly clean, with only minor comments about cobwebs and a shower needing more attention. Overall, the high level of cleanliness contributed positively to the guests' experiences.
The cottage's location in a quiet village close to Filey is well-received, with a local pub serving excellent food nearby. Some guests mentioned the convenience of a bus service, despite occasional delays, and the ease of driving to the beach.
Guests found the property very comfortable, with comfy beds, en suites, underfloor heating, and log burners. The spaciousness and warmth of the house contributed to a relaxing stay.
The house is equipped with everything needed, including a well-stocked kitchen and stair gates for children. However, there were minor issues with shower controls and a broken garlic crusher, suggesting room for improvement in maintenance.
While guests appreciated the thoughtful extras like cooking oil and sauces, there is no mention of gifts, so it is not possible to score this category. It should be noted that such extras, while appreciated, are not guaranteed.

The village of Muston, situated on the Yorkshire Wolds Way National Trail, is a sleepy, picturesque village only a short drive from Filey. Great for those walkers amongst you, the Wolds Way is 79 miles of fantastic scenery across the rolling Wolds, made famous by the David Hockney paintings. This Grade II listed, detached property was built in 1745 and the present owner has lovingly restored it to a very high standard, yet has managed to retain a lot of the original features. The farmhouse is very spacious with plenty of room for all age groups. The original farmyard is now an enclosed courtyard and makes a lovely seating area for an evening meal. The local pub is just around the corner so no need for the car.
Filey is famous for its wonderful, long sandy beach that stretches for several miles, perfect for the family holiday. The town has plenty of restaurants, bars, shops and a bank. The rspb bird sanctuary at Bempton Cliffs is just a short drive away where you can stand on the clifftop viewing points to see the puffins, and people travel from all over the world to come and see these comical birds in their thousands.
Scarborough, Whitby and Bridlington are easily accessible by car, all of them being very popular east coast resorts. West House Farm is a perfect base to visit the east coast, Yorkshire Wolds and the wonderful North Yorkshire Moors. The city of York is an hour away by car and is not to be missed. Always voted as one of the top 10 cities to visit in the UK, it has something for all age groups. It’s a beautiful, medieval walled city with lots of cobbled streets, independent shops and street entertainers, as well as plenty of museums and theatres. Beach 2½ miles. Shop 1½ miles, pub and restaurant 50 yards.

Loved the cottage, spacious living areas. Kitchen, dinning and bedrooms to accompany our party of 10. We arrived to a warm house with great underfloor heating and 2 log burners ( we only lit one as house was warm and kept warm throughout the evening). Loved the open plan so everyone could be included in conversations seated in the lounge areas. The bedrooms were decorated lovely and everyone got a good nights sleep with comfy warm beds. We all had hot water when needed and great that towels were also provided. Nice local pub 3 doors down and a bus stop across the road for easy access to Filey, Scarborough etc.

A lovely well equipped house. Lots of space for ten people including children. Spotlessly clean and warm with constant hot water.
