The towns of Bridlington and Filey offer a variety of pubs and restaurants while Bridlington has a spa entertainment centre and Filey a promenade and historic harbour.

Com which is nowhere near as nice as this one One thing i would like to point out though is when are people going to stop using COVID as an excuse to make you strip the beds etc before your departure , COVID was nearly 5 years ago and cottages should be serviced as they used to be .
