This amazing stay was donated to Star Bereavement as a charitable fundraising prize to raise money benefiting bereaved children in Wakefield, the stay raised invaluable funds for us. Such an impactful and great way to raise funds for charities close to your hearts. We can't recommend doing this enough!! A huge thankyou to Helen for organising this. Gorgeous property and fantastic location. Many thanks, The Team at Star Bereavement (Wakefield)

I stayed at the White Rose cottage on the Bay in Filey on the first weekend of March. The cottage had just been refurbished which included a new bathroom and shower. The cottage was lovely and clean and the perfect size for four people. It was nice and warm and cosy, parking to the rear with excellent facilities on site including swimming pool, steam room, sauna, gym, tennis courts and a pub which were a five minute walk from the cottage. The beach is only ten minutes away by foot with a further twenty minute walk into Filey centre. Excellent for families and would definitely recommend.

We stayed for 5 days in February. The cottage had everything we needed during our stay and we would not hesitate to re-book. The bay complex was ideal for our break with a beach and facilities such as a pub, shop and access to the beach and other walks

January 2023

Had a brilliant long weekend at White Rose Cottage the Bay. Our 3rd year running. The cottage was beautiful, had everything you could think of. We were concerned it would be small for 4 adults but plenty of space and clean. The welcome hamper was amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed the fudge. Thank you. Our dogs had a excellent time on the beach and dog friendly pub. Hope to return

My Mum, daughter and I had a wonderful stay in Whiterose Cottage. The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped and in a lovely location- so close to the really lovely Filey bay beach and so easy to get to Scarborough and Flamborough Head too. Helen is a wonderful host and really made sure everything was just right for us and sorted out a very minor issue very promptly. We will definitely stay again !

Unlike hotels, guest houses and caravans this cottage has all the amenities required to make it feel like home from home. All the entertainment facilities are within easy reach meaning you don’t have to leave the bay to enjoy your stay.

We enjoyed a lovely break at the White Rose Cottage, the cottage is well equipped and superbly located, it was just perfect for our needs, the lovely dog friendly beach is only a 10-minute walk away and the new walk along the cliff tops to the beach café makes for a lovely evening stroll or for an early morning breakfast trip. The cottage is well located allowing us to enjoy day trips to a lot of the other East Coast resorts over the week. We also stayed at the White Rose Apartment last year for a few nights which was also superb. Highly recommended, we hope to return soon.

My family and I had an amazing time. The property was just perfect for our needs. It was clean and spacious. The owner (Helen) was really accommodating and friendly. There was a slight issue with the booking system that the leisure centre was using (on site), Helen kept us informed throughout our stay. We will be definitely coming back again.

We have stayed at the Bay probably ten times in the past five or so years and this is far and away the best house we have stayed at. Upon arrival we did the usual look around and see what’s what. Amazed and delighted at the cleanliness and level of stock in the house. Crockery- loads, wardrobe space-loads, cleaning stuff-loads, towels-loads, condiments- blooming loads!! There was even Milton Brown (my favourite!!) hand wash and lotion. Nice big bath, again, my favourite. Parking right outside the door. Everything controllable by the owner surpassed our expectations. My wife is a senior travel agent for an independent company and will be recommending this cottage to all! Thanks so much for making our New Years awesome Helen Scott x

Perfect cottage and location. The cottage is very well equipped with everything you need. The complex is safe and secure with a Pub, cafe and shop together with the pool and gym . Filey is easy access to get to either by walking on the beach depending on tide times or along the coastal path. Have stayed before and will definitely be staying again

The cottage was very clean, extremely well equipped and really comfortable, giving us everything we needed for our holiday. The booking was very easy and the support from the owner was first class, including a small change in our visiting party. We very much appreciated the permission to take our dog, who certainly enjoyed the stay as much as us, especially the great beach and local walks. With a shop, cafe and pub restaurant the site has everything you need, and felt very safe. We would certainly book again with no hesitation.

We have recently returned from a lovely stay at White Rose Cottage. The property is ideal for couples or a small family with two good sized bedrooms that have very comfortable beds. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need and the living area is spacious and homely. On site there is a good sized swimming pool and a range of activities for all the family to enjoy. There is also a playground area for the kids and a reasonably priced shop. The property is walking distance to the beautiful beach and is situated within easy access to neighbouring Scarborough and Bridlington. The cottage and on site facilities are in fantastic condition. All in all we had a fantastic stay and we would highly recommend it.

White Rose Cottage is a real home from home by the sea. Everything to make our stay comfortable, whatever the weather. Warm and cozy, with great tv for colder evenings, yet only10 minutes walk from a lovely wide stretch of beach. Plenty of facilities on the well-kept holiday park to keep everyone happy, and lots of interesting places within a short car ride. We'll be back!

Yorkshireforever

Our family have just returned from a short break staying at this property. This is a first class Holiday home with all the modern amenities you could wish for. The house was sparkling clean and was so comfortable after a long days walking on the coast. Fabulous walks locally including around Filey and Flamborough. Will definitely look to return again and stay at White Rose Cottage.

The cottage had all the facilities needed to make our holiday successful .. It was vey comfortable and a good base for getting around. Would certainly think about booking again.

September 2020

The location of White Rose cottage is just amazing all amenities on the doorstep. The cottage has everything that you need for a prefect holiday. Since our last stay the cottage has a makeover with lovely new furniture. Pet friendly yet still stunning stop less and super clean. This is our fourth stay in the cottage but seventh stay at the Bay as previously stayed at White Rose flat that is also stunning in an amazing location great for couples or small family. The bay and cottage followed all Covid rules during our stay in a difficult time very impressed!!! Ready to book for next year.

Mrs Culshaw

We love the area and have been many times, but it was the first time at the Bay.. We couldn’t fault the village or the cottage, and would definitely visit again.

Mrs Culshaw, September 2020

We have just returned from a fantastic week's break at White Rose Cottage.. It's a lovely property which is very well maintained, clean and has all your home from home needs. Having Netflix and also very good WiFi was another bonus. The Bay is a lovely resort and the onsite facilities are all very good...and also very close by to the cottage.! The beach is also beautiful. Spans for miles and we spent lots of time on it with our dog who loved it. Filey is 3 km away on the beach and makes for a great walk there and back. The owners were very helpful and sent us lots of information before hand so we knew what to expect. We would highly recommend White Rose Cottage and The Bay resort and will definitely be returning. Thank you for a fabulous week.

Absolutely loved staying at Whiterose Cottage at The Bay. It was home from home, ideally located with lots of nice pubs and restaurants nearby, and only a 10 minute walk to the beach. My family and I had a lovely little break here and will definitely be coming back.

Just back from a fabulous week at White Rose Cottage. A lovely, clean, well equipped cottage and to add to this a beautifully sunny week! We mostly relaxed, the chairs and beds very comfy and great to have WIFI. We had some beautiful sunsets and a great view on Venus in the early evening. Loved the cottage so much we have booked again for later in the year.

Mr Yorke, February 2020

One of the best equipped cottages we have hired, great location, lovely homely feeling - pre stay information & communication was superb- highly recommended..

Mr Dyde, January 2020

November 2019

We had a great time at White Rose Cottage in Filey.. The house was gorgeous, warm, and had everything you could possibly need for a short or lengthy stay. It was clean and spacious and would recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay. Our only criticism is that the bed was very hard and we struggled to sleep. The house was fantastic but we really didn't sleep at all. A more comfortable bed would make us book this house time and time again.

Mrs Morley, November 2019

We have stayed on the bay a few times before in filey always had a good holiday .... We have stayed on the bay a few times before in filey always had a good holiday will book another cottage in the near future great for dog friendly holidays thanks again tracey

Had a great stay.. lovely cottage with great facilities... spacious and clean throughout.. fantastic location.. only 5 mins walk to the beach... and even less to the on-site leisure club and pub... The Bay complex itself is immaculate.. definitely recommended.. and will definitely look to stay again...

davidy141

My wife and I took our young grandsons to Filey staying at White Rose Cottage and we had a great time. The cottage is very clean , modern and well situated for travels along the East Coast.

Mrs dutton, November 2019

We enjoyed an excellent stay at White Rose Cottage , everyone including the grandkids found plenty to do in the surrounding area..

Mr Yorke, October 2019

Very nice and well appointed house in a great location.. The Cantrell heating is controlled by a locked hive system which meant we couldn’t increase the setting on cool nights, or turn on the towel rail to dry off our towels after showering. There isn’t a single light in the house which is bright enough to read by in the evening either, which could be easily rectified. Final niggle was that in supplying an abundance of kitchen utensils, crockery and gadgets to cater for an army, there was no cupboard space left for our own food supplies. These are minor issues, which I mention as having paid for a first class experience, it took the edge off. I fully expect to return next year and see the owner has taken steps to address the issues.

Kirkbyred

Another wonderful holiday at White Rose Cottage for me and my family. This is a wonderful house fantastically well maintained and provides a perfect base for our holidays. The bedrooms are a great size and living room Is ideal for a young family. The free wi-fi also keeps our children entertained! The on site facilities are much improved and there are lots to do for adults and children alike. The bay itself is a great location with direct beach access which the children love. Helen can’t do enough to help and makes every stay we have there perfect. I would highly recommend anyone thinking of booking this cottage to do so straight away. I know we will be!

Mrs Killerby, August 2019

July 2019

We enjoyed our stay.. Comfortable accommodation. As older guests we found the height of the bath side and placement of taps made getting in the bath difficult. Only disappointment was the on site pub. Food not to expected standards. We will be booking again. Thank you.

Mrs Warnock, July 2019

Beautiful like home from home me and my husband took our granddaughter on her first weeks holiday she's 5 and she absolutely loved it the beach is around 10 minutes walk away and it's a beautiful beach.. The complex is dog friendly which is a bonus so we brought our shih-tzu Rosie highly recommended

Mr Cholmondley, July 2019

Quality of the bay site..

Turners1978

We stayed at the cottage in June and we had the perfect stay. The cottage has modern decor throughout and was spotlessly clean. The cottage is really spacious and was equipped with everything we needed for our stay, including free WiFi and Netflix. It’s just a short stroll to the pub which served lovely food and has indoor and outdoor seating areas, it’s also just a short walk to beach. The cottage has a lovely outside BBQ and seating area and plenty of parking. We had the perfect trip and will definitely be returning. We have recommended the cottage to family and friends.

I visited with my family and dogs in April and had a perfect stay. The accommodation has absolutely everything you need for a family as well as being comfortable and spacious. The location is ideal with a short walk to the beach leading to a stunning walk to Filey. The on-site pub is dog friendly with an extensive itinerary of entertainment for all. It was an extremely enjoyable break and we will definitely be returning. I have recommended to family and friends and look forward to my next visit.

Stunning cottage situated on site in a fantastic location, 2 minuets walk to amenities and 5 minuets to the Beach. The cottage was equipped with everything you could need and was spotless could not find a fault. A home from home. The beach is very clean and dog friendly as is the site. Both the swimming pool and gym were great, staff were very helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend a stay at White Rose Cottage, five star will definitely be returning

Mrs Willsea

Excellent cottage 3rd time staying in it, brilliant for the dog recess to a lovely long sandy beech, five mile drive of Scarborough 20 ish to whitby.. .. Who needs foreign holidays the east coast in the sun beats it every time. Already re booked for 2020

I stayed at White Rose Cottage for a week in March with my Mum and 2 year old girl. We had a wonderful time. The cottage is just perfect. Just like a home from home. All the mod cons and very well maintained. There is a large double with enough room for a travel cot and a twin. There is a family bathroom and a toilet downstairs too. There is a lovely outside searing area with parking just outside the house too. The site itself again is well maintained. This is my third visit to The Bay and it won't be the last. There is an indoor pool, play area, games room, pub and a pizzeria/coffee shop on site. There are lots of places in the area to visit too. I would highly recommend White Rose Cottage to anyone looking to stay at The Bay.

Mrs Robinson

I wasn't able to find out how close the parking was the cottage before I booked.. Also, no instructions for the dishwasher and didn't seem to want to work for us.

February 2019

Cottage was in the ideal location for travelling to Scarborough and whitby, plus you were a five minute walk from the beach..

Mrs Welch

We have no reservations in recommending this beautiful cottage..

Loved our week at White Rose Cottage in August. Was lovely and clean and so well equipped. Our host was really helpful and friendly. The village is great, only a few minute walk from the beach and central for days out. Can't wait to go again

charlieasdavison

The accomodation was excellent.. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to selfcater. The beds were very comfortable. We particularly enjoyed having very good WiFi and access to Netflix etc. Having a downstairs toilet as well as the upstairs bathroom made life easier for us. We have stayed at the Bay three previous times and this accommodation is the best we have experienced.

Mrs Stott

This cottage was exceptional, what a beautiful place the surrounding estate is fabulous safe secure spotless and homely, my Husband myself and our little dog had a great week we did not want to come home.. Everything you needed was in the cottage very well equipped indeed spotless so very comfy location great it was superb, we will be going back for a definite, good holiday fabulous place. Would highly recommend 10 out of 10. Jackie & Jimmy from Manchester.

Mr Hardy

Had a great break,just what was needed.. Would recommend anytime.

My family and I stayed at the whiterose cottage at The Bay in Filey for a week in August. The cottage is very well presented throughout, and lovely and clean. It’s in a perfect location and in walking distance to Filey beach. We will definitely be booking again and would highly recommend to anyone. Thanks again Charlotte

August 2018

The Bay is lovely, not crowded.. Dog friendly pub, beach, swimming pool, park, tennis court, archery etc. It was nice walk to the beach, very scenic. Only one thing missing is a shop on site, there is a chemist which sells essentials such as milk and bread but we went in and they had sold out. Tesco is only 3 miles away though and there's a spa shop a mile away but sometimes you don't always want to take your car out. We stayed at White Rose Cottage, would recommend this Cottage to everyone. Weather was beautiful. This is our fourth visit to Filey. For somewhere different to eat and it is dog friendly, we would recommend Royal Oak pub, Hummanby, there's a soft play upstairs, park and lovely food. Overall we had a very nice holiday. Thank you Sykes Cottages.

Mrs Richards

July 2018

Second visit to White Rose Cottage and it was just as perfect as the first.. Lovely accommodation, clean, comfortable and very well equipped. Highly recommended.

bod292

Stayed here with my partner and teenage daughter the cottage was lovely and clean and comfortable and fully equipped with everything you would need liked the fact there was free WiFi and netflix which we watched each evening after full days out to the likes of scarborough whitby York and bridlington..enjoyed walking down to the beach which was only 10-15 mins away and then along to filey would thoroughly recommend the cottage to anyone we had a wonderful stay

Mrs Barber

March 2018

The information sent to us by the owners prior to our stay was very comprehensive and everything was thought of.. on arrival the cottage was warm and clean a super welcome on a dull day, all the extras in the kitchen are a bonus, not what you get when you normally book let only accommodation, for example, extra crockery, a wide selection of glass wear, huge selection of oven wear and utensils, how often have you holidayed and not had enough utensils to even rustle up a full breakfast for four? all i needed was at white rose cottage. even a selection of melamine plates/bowls for outdoor use of for younger guests in your holiday party. and a slow cooker, throw it all in in the morning switch on, set off for a hike across the moors or a walk over Filey Brigg and its ready on your return. dishwasher and washer/dryer in kitchen also. the lounge area was light bright airy and very comfortably furnished. the bedrooms were comfortable with beautifully clean linen and towels provided. the second bedroom was more than adequate for our 14&12 yr. old for space and comfort, with beds different ends of the room to give them each space and their own storage & lamp. the bathroom had a good shower and large bath with constant hot water supply. a small well kept area outside patio doors to have a bbq and sit at the garden furniture. the free Wi-Fi coped with multiple devices connected at once. The Bay as a site is well kept. we used the pub for a drink but lots were having meals there they looked good. the swimming pool has long opening hours and the times we used it, it was clean and of a reasonable temperature. i consider a week at white rose cottage to be good value for money and we certainly were not dissapointed

The cottage was beautiful and had everything plus more in it no need to take washing up liquid tea coffee sugar it was all in there fully equipped sold it short.. The Bay was a ideal base to visit Scarborough and Whitby and was perfect if you had a dog as the Bay was so dog friendly everyone there at the time of year we went march had a dog and it was only a ten minute walk to a beach and your dog could go off lead on the walk to and on the beach.The insight leaisure centre was spotless and ideal for a swim and the steam and sauna rooms were lovely. Our son used the gym which was fully equipped. Will go again.

Mr Carr

We stayed at White Rose cottage at The Bay over new year.. Excellent home from home cottage with everything we needed and more besides, especially the little touches such as the unlimited WiFi and the smart TVs . Also the bottle of fizz on arrival was much appreciated. Thanks again.

White Rose cottage more than exceeded our expectations.. Superbly furnished, very comfortable and spacious. The site was spotlessly clean and tidy. I would have no hesitation in recommending this property and site to anyone.

July 2017

The property exceeded expectations, it was very well equipped and appointed.. It was in a lovely location and we liked it so much we have booked again for next year!

Mrs Rothnie

White Rose Cottage is fabulous! Great location, very comfortable and well equipped. The best holiday cottage we have ever stayed in!

June 2017

We booked this as an early week away with our 2 teenage daughters and we absolutely loved this place. The site was such a pleasant holiday village to stay on. yes, there was still building work ongoing, (as mentioned in many other reviews) but this didn't impact negatively on our stay one bit. There was plenty to do in the area and we enjoyed a walk into Filey along the stunning stretch of beach. An evening stroll often ended up with a brief walk on the Sands. we didn't try Lorenzo's other than to buy some take out Ice creams (it was a scorcher of a week so ice cream and the odd visit to the pub were a must) but we did enjoy a meal at Valentino's just on the main road outside the complex for our wedding anniversary. highly recommended. We took part in archery, the girls hired the tennis courts and used the pool. so I think we fully took advantage of the facilities The Bay has to offer. I also managed to arrange a shopping delivery from Asda, for just after we arrived, so no holiday time wasted looking for a shop. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and we do think we'll return one day. would defo recommend.

The only downside is that construction continues on the holiday village.. This created no problems for us. We really liked the house and the facilities. The beach is beautiful and one of the best in England. A lovely week weather gorgeous :-)
