Had everything we needed. Ample secure parking. Although outside of Filey in Reighton 3/4 miles away-we walked to Filey via Reighton Sands. A great location to visit Whitby, Robin Hoods Bay, Scarborough, Flamborough Head, Bridlington, Hornsea. A mile or so from the property in Hunmanby is the Piebald Inn-choice of 52 pies. Super food, service and price. Couple of nights meals in Filey-Italian and The White Lodge Hotel, again both great service, food and price. Well done Honeysuckle. 5*

On arrival everything looked lovely and welcoming. As we started to unpack we noticed that the cleaning was not of a good standard . The large table was sticky. The mat in the lounge was stuck to a dirty floor (as if it had just been cleaned around. There were random pieces of confettie sprinkled about the propertie from previous parties including a large plastic butterfly wing of a toy made up in one of the beds. I found dried dog feeces on the lawn that had turned white, so this would of been there for a while. The hottub did not work properly and kept going down so we kept having to fill up to be able to use. The bins outside the properties were over full and the lids jammed open thus causing flies. The fly problem was absolutely horrendous and we went through approx 20 fly tapes in the week we were there changing them daily as they were full. I do however understand that the area suffers with flies at this time of year so maybe some sort of fly screen or curtains could be fitted to the doors etc. We paid a lot to stay in this holiday home and was quite disappointed. With things that could be easily rectified. I would like to say that this is a lovely propertie and if these few problems were straightend out it would make a lovely holiday for future large groups .
