About this property

Salty Dog - a beach house that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

Salty Dog is situated on Blue Anchor Road, a favourite location with Bay regulars as it is close to the beach, tennis court, playground and village centre, but also very private.

Living space

Enter through the side door into the hallway with coat and shoe storage.

To the right is the open-plan kitchen / dining / lounge space with bifold doors to the front deck. The kitchen is very well-equipped with tall fridge-freezer, and all the appliances you'll need for your holiday. There's a smart TV, sofa-chaise and armchair in the living area, and a table and chairs in the kitchen space.

Bedrooms and bathrooms

To your left are the main bedroom with kingsize bed and ensuite shower room, and the second bedroom with 2 small singles (can be a king on request). There is also another shower room with jack-and-jill doors from the hallway and the second bedroom.

Heating

Gas central heating, electric towel rails in the bathrooms, and a log burner too!

Outside space

The front deck has a patio table and benches which gets the morning sun, ideal for alfresco breakfast or morning coffee. At the rear is a set of 2 seats/table between, so you can enjoy the afternoon sun.

Parking

There is a drive to the side of the house with space for 1-2 cars.

Accessibility

The driveway/path sleepers can be uneven and slippery when wet and therefore this property may not be suitable for guests with mobility issues.

Salty Dog Filey Bay

A very nice lodge and immaculately clean.All open plan outside so could not let the dogs out Lovely shower rooms. We found the sofa to be very uncomfortable and low. Unfortunately the weather was against us.

Another comfortable stay

We are regulars at The Bay and Salty Dog is our favourite. We were lucky to have very good weather. We were warm, cosy and comfortable and had all the essentials provided plus some thoughtful extras. We enjoyed days out in nearby Filey, Bridlington and Scarborough and enjoyed breakfast at The Beach Cafe at Hunmanby Gap after checking out. We look forward to returning in the future.

Excellent stay

Second visit to the Salty Dog and it did not disappoint. The lodge is nicely decorated, very clean and very well equipped. The beds are so comfortable. Not my particular taste in settee for comfort, but that is a very minor point.

Amazing stay at The Salty Dog

This was our third stay at The Salty Dog at The Bay Filey, and it just keeps getting better every time. From the moment we arrived, it truly felt like a home away from home, everything has been so thoughtfully provided, making it easy to relax and settle in straight away. The facilities at The Bay are fantastic, offering something for everyone and really adding to the overall experience. It’s the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a break by the coast. We wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend The Salty Dog to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-equipped getaway.

Excellent Stay at The Salty Dog , I would highly recommend it for a summer or winter break with dogs

A very well located lodge in a quiet cul-de sac with easy access to the beach. The lodge had everything you could need for a short break.

A very comfortable stay

We enjoyed another stay at our favourite beach house at The Bay and the weather was brilliant. The accommodation is very comfortable and well equipped. Close to the facilities and a short walk to the beach. We enjoyed swimming in the indoor pool. We walked to Filey along the beach and caught a bus back from the bus station. There are loads of nice places to eat in the area and lots are dog friendly. We shall certainly be returning for another relaxing break.

We enjoyed our stay at Salty Dog. It's a welcoming,clean and attractively presented lodge in a prime location. Salty Dog is fully equipped and there's everything you need for an enjoyable stay.

10/10 for Salty Dog!

This was our first stay at Salty Dog but it definitely won’t be the last! Such a lovely, cosy, comfy, clean and well appointed property in a great location. All the little thoughtful touches made a huge difference; it felt so homely and welcoming. Easy access to the beach and cliff-top walk. Enjoyed a swim in the indoor pool as well. Don’t recommend eating at the pub on site though; overpriced and very bland. Lots of better options just up the road in Filey. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Salty Dog and look forward to returning again soon.

A short spring break

We have stayed at the bay many times but this was our first time at Salty Dog.Great position gets the sun in the morning on the front decking and in the afternoon at the side which has seats. The accommodation as everything you need for self catering also lots of things for children if you have them. We will be booking again our dogs loved it.

Outstanding stay

Absolutely loved our stay at Salty Dog. The accommodation was very clean and warm. The bed was comfy and shower superb. We had good weather some of the time and able to use the bi folding doors which was great! We have never stayed at The Bay before but absolutely fell in love with it. It was a very clean complex with a great path to the beach. Our dog loved her time there and the beach was fantastic. A shop and a pub on the complex which we used was good. I would highly recommend Salty Dog for anyone looking to stay with their dog they will love it !

Short break

We have stayed at the Salty Dog on two previous occasions and it never disappoints. It’s cleaned to a very high standard, location is fantastic. It’s the little things that make it special like cleaning material left eg bin bags, milk in the fridge etc. Highly recommended and will be staying again.

A very pleasant holiday in a fabulous place

A very pleasant stay in a great location. The lodge has everything you could require when on vacation. My elderly parents found it very easy to get about in the surrounding area and were helped by a member of owners direct when having difficulty in gaining access to the key safe. We have already booked again for a family holiday in october
