Self Catering in Yorkshire - Filey

A wonderful dog friendly apartment in a beautiful setting.
Myself and my wife are a big fan of Yorkshire and were very excited to take our children there for the first time. My wife found Denby Retreat through Sykes Cottages and although the weather let us down after a long time away from Yorkshire this gem of an apartment did not. This apartment is ideal for a family with a dog. Its was a cosy first floor apartment that was directly opposite a field and fishing pond for a happy dog and a football area for a happy son. The people who rent out the apartment leave a very helpful folder with a full listing of things to do in the surrounding areas which was very appreciated as well lots of fun games for a young family to enjoy on a rainy evening. Yorkshire itself was stunning as usual with some of the friendliest of people. The apartment is a short walk to the beach and the kids thought it was one of the nicest beaches they have been to. The only negative was the lack of a decent shop on site but that's no fault of Denny Retreat and Filey is a short drive away with a Tesco. This apartment is a perfect place to stay for exploring Yorkshire and although the rain wouldn't leave us alone we would definitely book up again.

Excellent
Brilliant apartment for myself, husband and 2 and half year old daughter. Apartment was clean and fully equipt with everything you needed, owners are super friendly too. Dog friendly apartment but you would never know an animal had been there. Location was excellent having the beach, pool and walks on site and loads of things to do within short driving distance. We would definitely recommend as we had a wonderful holiday ?

There wasn't anything we didn't like about our apartment or the village. All staff we had contact with were so friendly, the pub was dog friendly and the Italian restaurant served great breakfasts. The whole of the site was immaculately looked after and we'd go back in a heart beat. The dog particularly liked the lake. All in, we'd recommend this place wholeheartedly.

Great spot, great apartment, great time
High quality, dog friendly accommodation ideally placed for access to Filey beach, which is perfect for dogs, plus a great base for other attractions and destinations on the east coast and in North Yorkshire, highly recommended.

Enjoyable and relaxing place to visit
Denby retreat is set on a quiet site of beautiful looking houses and apartments, with amenities such as a pizzeria, local pub and swimming pool. Shop is a short drive (approx 1mille) which didn't bother us. The apartment was lovely and clean, had a very well equipped kitchen with everything you need for your stay. The bedrooms were very comfortable and we had a great time relaxing and spending quality family time in the apartment. The owners supplied an information book with details of places to visit and eat with or without your pet dog which was handy for us as we had taken our dog with us, we did utilise it and found some lovely places , such as falling foss waterfalls which was amazing. It also contained vital info such as local doctor/vets and tide times. A short walk from the beach, which was lovely and clean, and not far to walk along the beach into Filey, which again was enjoyable. Will definitely be going back as we had a wonderful time here would definitely recommend.
