Island View is a well-regarded holiday cottage in Bridlington, praised for its excellent location near the harbour and beach, and its well-equipped kitchen. Guests appreciate the comfortable lounge and the property's suitability for dogs. While some minor cleanliness issues and maintenance needs are mentioned, the overall sentiment is positive, with many guests planning to return.
The property is generally found to be clean, with a few isolated incidents of overlooked areas. These minor issues, such as a dirty patio window and some drawers needing attention, do not detract significantly from the overall experience.
The cottage's location is highly praised for its proximity to the harbour, beach, and local amenities, making it an ideal base for exploring Bridlington and the surrounding areas.
Guests find the lounge comfortable and the beds mostly satisfactory, though there are comments about one mattress being uncomfortable. The presence of two bathrooms is appreciated for convenience.
The property is well-furnished with modern bathrooms and a fully equipped kitchen. However, there are mentions of a TV with poor reception and a suggestion to replace a mattress, indicating some areas for improvement.
While guests mention a welcome pack, there is insufficient information to assess the consistency or quality of thoughtfulness in terms of gifts. It is politely noted that such amenities are not guaranteed.

Set at the end of a row of houses with open aspects over The Links towards Coquet Island is this deceptively spacious holiday home. Only a hop, skip and a jump to the centre of Amble, the popular town has a great community spirit, and has been dubbed the ‘friendliest port’. There’s a working harbour, a pretty marina and a sandy beach to enjoy, just a short walk from this end terraced property.
A popular Sunday market on the harbour provides a great morning out. You’ll find a super little fish restaurant hidden behind the lifeboat house, and an award-winning ice cream parlour. Coquet Island is a designated rspb protected bird sanctuary home to some 30,000 puffins, which can be seen on the puffin cruises that depart from Amble. Just two miles away is the picture-perfect village of Warkworth with its hillside castle, pubs, shops and scenic walks along the banks of the river. Young witches and wizards are drawn to Alnwick Castle, which featured in the Harry Potter films. You can also visit the impressive water gardens and the world’s largest treehouse-turned restaurant whilst you’re there.
Characterised by vast golden stretches, pristine bays and rolling sand dunes, it’s little wonder why the coastline north of Amble was designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Heritage Coastline offers plenty of cycle and footpaths for outdoorsy types of holidaymakers. Truly, Island View is a great location for exploring the whole of this unspoilt county with all necessary amenities right on your doorstep.

We had a wonderful 4‑night stay over Christmas at this lovely cottage. I stayed with my dad and our two dogs, and it couldn’t have been a more perfect break. The cottage was always warm and cosy, and it had everything we needed throughout our stay.The location is fantastic, just a short walk to the shops, restaurants, and the beach, which made getting out and about really easy. Both beds were extremely comfortable, and the bathrooms were spotless and modern.The cottage itself was simple to find, and the access instructions were clear and straightforward. Overall, we had a fantastic time and would happily stay again. Highly recommended!

Lovely cottage. Fantastic location close to the harbour and eateries in walking distance. Cottage provided quality. Obviously money has been spent in upgrading. Lovely and warm. Wi-Fi not brilliant but will definitely return.

Lovely holiday cottage. Kitchen was extremely well equipped. Both showers worked really well. Lounge very comfortable and lovely to watch the birds which is fed every day. Location excellent with being 5 mins, if that from the harbour, pods, paddlers park. My only little gripe would be the patio windows were dirty possibly with a dog nose!! But everything else seemed acceptable. We tried to book for the same week next year but it had already been taken.
