Overall, the property offers a welcoming and enjoyable stay, making it a popular choice for returning visitors.
Most guests found the property clean and well-maintained, with several describing it as spotless.

These mixed experiences bring the score to above average but not perfect.
The location is highly praised, with guests enjoying the proximity to Filey, the beach, and other Yorkshire coast attractions. The quiet, well-kept holiday village and easy access to local amenities are frequently mentioned as highlights.
Guests consistently mention comfortable beds, cosy living spaces, and a homely atmosphere. Some noted heavy duvets in summer and a lack of cushions or pillow quality as minor drawbacks, but overall comfort is rated highly.
The cottage is described as exceptionally well-equipped, with everything needed for families and dog owners. Facilities such as kitchen appliances, games, and outdoor taps are appreciated. A few maintenance issues (e.g., dishwasher, blinds, outdoor furniture) were noted but did not significantly detract from the overall experience.

A lovely holiday home which was perfect for our family. Well stocked with everything we needed to self cater. The house is spacious and airy. We were lucky to be there during a heat wave and took advantage of opening the bifold doors both downstairs and upstairs. Worth noting that the fridge is a lot smaller than I am used to and I struggled to store all the food that I ordered in but that was my mistake.

Lovely clean house. Few little niggles such as the roman blinds were a nuisance in the bathroom and lounge area. The outdoor furniture was too big for the space and as we've found in other accommodation in The Bay the fridge freezer is far too small for a family holiday. There is only a small hanging space in the 2nd bedroom and no drawers for clothes. A manual next to the washer/dryer would have been useful. 22 Sea is in a lovely quiet spot and provides everything you need. Really enjoyed our stay and would book again in the future.

Fantastic place to stay. We are very frequent travellers and this one is on our favourite list. A place we would highly recommend!! Very easy straightforward check in process. All needed info given in advance. Owner very informative, making sure we had required info prior to arrival and lovely host to deal with. Location was fantastic for visiting Whitby, Scarborough and Filey itself. Very clean, beds very comfy with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. Hoover, mop, iron and all other equipment were fantastic, all worked very well and easy to use. A spacious cottage with lots of storage. We were provided with more than enough towels and things like washing up liquid and dishwasher tablets to see us through the first few days. WiFi and tv easy to work as was the hot water controls. The site itself has a lovely beach a short walk away and a mini arcade, shop, restaurant/ bar. One issue, which was nothing to do with our host was dog mess. The walk to the beach and the walks around site were quite bad with owners sadly not Cleaning up after their dog which was quite a big issue for us as we have young children, who naturally want to run and explore and the extent of the dog mess did make this an issue. It’s something to be mindfulOf if you visit this site. As I say though -nothing the host can do about that but I know it’s something families with children would need to be mindful of if you enjoy walks and plan on visiting the beach which is lovely. In summary though a great location, beautiful property, very informative and friendly host with everything you need for a family stay.
