About this property

Skylark - a beach house that sleeps 5 guests in 2 bedrooms

Skylark Beach House 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.

Enter through the side door into the spacious open plan living area. To the left is the large kitchen with all the appliances you need. To the right is the dining space with extendable table and seating for 4-8. And in front, is the living area, with corner sofa and armchair, coffee table, log burner and TV/DVD.

From the living space, there are large bifold doors onto the front deck, ideal for catching the morning and afternoon sun.

Down the hall, there are two bedrooms. Main bedroom with kingsize bed and ensuite wet room with rainfall shower and second bedroom with full-size twin beds (can be joined to make a superking on request), and ensuite bathroom with a bath and rainfall shower over.

We also provide a 4ft small double folding guest bed for the 5th guest (fits in the kitchen area) if required.

Off-road parking for 2 cars side by side. Log burner and underfloor heating make Skylark beach house cosy for breaks all year round. Ceiling fans in all rooms too.

The property has little extras like TVS in the lounge and bedrooms, and a Tassimo coffee machine. Lots of games, beach equipment, a hammock and more so you can pack light!

Things To Note

The driveway/path sleepers can be uneven and slippery when wet and therefore this property may not be suitable for guests with mobility issues.
There are two raised decking areas at the rear of the property which may not be suitable for young children (around a metre off the ground -- see photos.)

Another fab stay at The Bay

Had another great stay at The Bay. First time in this property- had everything you would need. The bedrooms were a lovely size and it was nice to have the option of a bath or a shower. A bonus was the two patio- one at the front and one at the back of the property, which I was lucky enough to be able to use due to the unexpected lovely weather! In a quiet area but close to all of the amenities. Didn't use the swimming pool but did enjoy lots of walks on the beach, straight from The Bay.

Beautiful and comfortable holiday house

What a find! We wanted a short break for us and our labrador and this was perfect. Spacious, comfortable and everything you could possibly need in the kitchen and bathrooms. A great location on a quiet cul-de-sac close to the amenities and convenient for the beach. We never rebook the same place for a holiday... but we have this time!

Short break by the sea with family, friends & our dog

Another lovely stay at Skylark. Excellent property, everything for a comfortable stay. Very easy access to the very large sandy beach, ideal for dogs as there are no restrictions. Very cold when the wind blows off the North Sea. This time we took the coastal bus to Scarborough & Bridlington (dogs allowed & no charge), bus stop at The Bay entrance.

Lovely Easter break

We had a lovely break in Skylark with our two boys and our dog. The accommodation was just perfect with everything you could possibly need. Don't think we have stayed at such a well equipped holiday home! Its close to the amenities but still felt really quiet. Would love to stay again. Great value booking with Filey Bay Direct compared to what we have paid for accommodation at Filey Bay before, especially for such a lovely place.

Easter break with the dog

Having previously stayed in Skylark we knew the quality and cleanliness of the property, it has everything that you need and is far superior to the properties let directly by the park.

Wonderful min break

We had the most wonderful time at Skylark. The accommodation had everything we needed and more, you can tell the owner has thought of everything to make it easier for her guests during their stay. Lots to do around the area too and the beach is a short walk away.

Skylark 5*

5* stayed here in January so obviously the weather wasn’t great, but the luxury of the lodge made up for it. Will hopefully return. Also Paula couldn’t be more helpful, and made everything very easy. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Home from home

What more can I say ….this place is definitely home from home! Clean, warm, comfortable, large living space with gorgeous log fire, luxurious bedrooms with bathrooms. What makes this special though is all the little extras that are provided - a very well stocked kitchen including a wealth of pans/ glasses/ crockery, dishwasher with tablets, blankets, games, toys for dogs…. Will be returning soon! Thank you Paula x

This Beach house is perfect

We loved our week in the Skylark it is perfect in every way! We booked a week to get away from the fireworks with our dogs. The site was much quieter than back at home. Our dogs were much calmer this year. The House has everything you could possibly need. We had the log burner going every night which was lovely and cosy. Location is great too - close to all facilities. We will definitely be booking to stay at Skylark again. 5* accommodation.

Home from home

A well-equipped, clean, beautifully furnished and spacious beach house. Everything there that you could possibly need, from cafetière to condiments, from buckets and spades to connect 4. Dogs are very welcome and there are dog bowls and toys too. Another lovely stay. Already booked for next visit!! Paula is an absolute delight to deal with.

Home away from home

A lovely property located perfectly in a quiet area of the holiday park but still very close to the amenities. Gives great access to the local areas and the beach. The convenience of an EV charger was great. The property is lovely and spacious for us and our little pooch. So much so we've already booked to return.

Lovely week in quality accommodation

An excellent stay in high quality well managed and maintained beach house. Lovely décor and feel throughout the house, points to note and worthy of special mention include very nice and comfy beds particularly when compared to some others in properties I have stayed in at the same site over the years, lovely bedroom carpets and space, excellent ensuite and also plenty of outdoor patio areas with furniture and sunbeds available for use. Also living room area large and airy and again as a comparison to other experience in properties really felt the blinds in all rooms were lovely, spot on and quality, also larger than average TVs throughout the accommodation. The only negative and this is not a fault of the owner or the property but after an unpleasant experience from one of our party I feel the site owners / operators (Away Resorts) need to do something about the sleepers outside as the entrance path to the property - something that I have reported both verbally in site to reception and followed up in writing after leaving) as these are a great health and safety risk when wet. I just want to be clear that this comment has nothing to do with Fileybaydirect who we booked through, Paula and her team were absolutely fantastic from start to finish, knowledgeable, helpful, nothing was too much trouble and I would recommend the complete booking and holiday experience
