Filey in general

Newest Review: ... astonishing in the day and age we live in. It has all the standard machines and me and him happily wasted a couple of pounds on the 2p slot games. The only downside was this shut at tea time. I know its out of season but there was still quite a few of us walking around, I was gutted when we went back later and it was shut. There went all my dreams of winning millions. Alongside this was a RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) outlet. This sold souvenirs for kids such as Frisbees, pens, pencils etc with all profits made going to aid them. We didn't go inside though as by this point it was getting colder.. Then there was a couple of sma... more

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Filey is a small village situated on the east coast of the UK in East Yorkshire. Further up the coastline is Scarborough and just below is Flamborough and then Bridlington. It is a quaint little old style seaside town and the perfect place if you just want a couple of days relaxation away from everything minus all the commercialization of other seaside places, but does the quiet, almost eerie isolation of it give it a rare sparkle or does it make you want to run towards the nearest civilised area like a mad woman? Here is what I thought.. Why I ... Read the complete review

As a follow on to my Bridlington review I decided to write another resort review mainly because I seem to enjoy writing them. There is a little seaside resort ten miles north of Bridlington on the east coast. This seaside is called Filey. Filey is very much like 'marmite', you either love it or you hate it. I however love it. For such a small place it has so much to offer, you just have to look to find it, but at least you don't have to look far. There are two main areas to Filey.

Filey is situated on the East Coast of Yorkshire, between the 2 larger resorts of Bridlington (to the south) and Scarborough (to the north). The resort of Filey is a traditional seaside town with many attractions. It is really of the oldie-world type and has approximately 5 miles of golden sandy beaches to boast of. These sands are very safe for children, as the water gently shelves into the North Sea, and are protected by the rocky outcrop known as Filey Brigg. If you want a relaxing holiday by the sea, then Filey is for you. You can watch the fishermen at work tending to their nets or off-loading fish after they have been out into the North Sea. ...
