The welcome pack was thoughtfully supplied with treats for humans and dogs as well as handy kitchen supplies. Everything was spotlessly clean and the rooms were comfortable and inviting. We will certainly have Lantern House at the top of our list if we decide to return to The Bay.

Weâve stayed in a few houses on The Bay complex and this one is the best weâve stayed at. Very comfortable, everything you need in the cottage. Good position with parking behind, not far to the gym, pub, swimming pool and shop. And 10 mins walk to the lovely dog friendly beach, we walked along that into Filey every day. The treat basket left for us in the house was nice. And I accidentally left a cardigan there and the owner kindly posted it to me, going above and beyond, which was a lovely thing to do and greatly appreciated. Overall a fab place to stay and lots to go visit around the area.

It was home from home. Enjoyed the welcome pack. Comfortable bed. Would certainly come again. We are thinking about seeking a larger property at the Bay and bringing our family next time.
