This pristine semi-detached house can accommodate up to seven guests, offering families a well-presented holiday home with the luxury of off-street parking and with amenities and the beach close at hand. The kitchen offers a host of modern appliances including a ceramic electric hob (brand new as of Nov 2024) and double oven, slow cooker and microwave.

Spend your evenings unwinding in the spacious living room, which features dual-aspect windows letting in the natural light and a 55” Smart TV. Deep filled sofas and an ornamental electric fire give the room a lovely cosy effect (fire does not provide heat). In the evening retire to the first floor to one of the three pristine bedrooms.

All three rooms offer luxury soft furnishings, deep filled mattresses and Freeview TVs. The accommodation is completed by a house bathroom offering both a bath and a shower cubicle, plus a separate toilet with hand basin. Step outside and there is a small seating area which is bathed in sunlight throughout the afternoon.
A short walk will bring you to the centre of Filey where you can find a plethora of tea rooms, fish and chip restaurants, pubs and convenience stores. Or a 5-minute walk will take you straight to the beach. Filey offers 7 miles of golden sands that leads to Filey Brigg, a long narrow peninsula that stretches out to sea.
Further along the costs are the bustling seaside towns of Bridlington and Scarborough. Bird lovers will enjoy a visit to rspb Bempton Cliffs where you can experience that edge of the world feeling atop towering cliffs and glimpse a plethora of seabirds and other wildlife. The Flamborough Heritage Coast and the stunning Yorkshire Wolds are just a short drive away and offer miles of walking and cycling opportunities. The stately homes of Burton Agnes Hall, Sledmere House and Gardens and Sewerby Hall and gardens offers packed calendars of events throughout the year.

Just had 4 nights at Bee Happy House, it’s one of the nicest houses we’ve stayed in for a long time well equipped and a great homely feel about it which we feel is all down to Shelly and Kev, nice touch to introduce themselves over the phone and a really nice welcoming pack on arrival, very close to town centre and beach.Would we book again most definitely

The Bee Happy House is a well loved second home, not a standard holiday let. It is very well equipped, with comfy beds & in a great location for the Town.The steep hill down to the beach and then back uphill, is a good work out for burning off the holiday calories!
