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.

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.

Fantastic Beach House
As a frequent guest at The Bay, Filey, I've stayed in many of the Beach Houses, and Salty Dog is easily my favorite. The owner has clearly put a great deal of care into its maintenance and unique personal touches.
The main bed is extremely comfortable, and both the kitchen and shower rooms are in excellent condition. The charming "Salty Dog" theme is woven throughout the property, from the stained glass door and porthole to the bedding and decorative ornaments.
Its location is perfect for quick access to the beach, leisure facilities, pub, and cafe. Communication with the management team was also excellent. I will definitely be staying here again.

Excellent all round
My sister and I stayed for a weekend with 2 dogs and couldn’t be happier with the Salty Dog! The kitchen was well equipped (not that we used much!), 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms which were all clean and lovely. The dogs loved it here with the long stretch of beach up to Filey and were completely worn out and sleepy after a day on the beach
Wouldn’t hesitate to book again and thank you to Paula for arranging at short notice!

Fantastic
Fantastic 3 night stay at Salty Dog. The location is perfect, just a short walk to the beach. The on-site pub served lovely food and dog friendly. The accommodation was spacious, really clean and catered for everything. This was our first visit but we will be back

Great accommodation in a great location
We had an amazing stay at Salty Dog. The accommodation was a perfect size for us (2 adults, a toddler and a dog) and was really generously stocked with everything that we needed for a really comfortable stay.
Due to the bad weather, we didn’t walk all the way to the beach but it was really easily signposted from the accommodation.
Overall a great stay and we will definitely return.

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.

Excellent Property
We have stayed at The Bay many times, and I believe this is the best property we have stayed at. The property is very well equipped with everything you could need for a relaxing weekend. The main bed was exceptionally comfortable and this property (unlike many rental properties) has an oven that actually heats up well and is ft for use. Love, love, love, the Salty Dog Bag and crisps - an excellent touch!!! The property was exceptionally clean and every blanket and cover smelt freshly laundered. Hats off to the cleaning team. There is literally nothing that we could complain about for this property, it is exceptionally well looked after and was a joy to stay in - Well done!!!

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

Very clean, tidy and inviting. Everything you need is provided.
A lovely touch leaving ‘salty dog crisps’ and some fresh milk in the fridge for arrival.

Great stay
This is my 2nd stay at The Salty Dog. The property is lovely , comfortable seating in the lounge area , comfortable beds. Every appliance you would need in the kitchen & dog friendly too . It’s just a short walk down to the beach. Facilities on site are good but if you needed anything that the shop or chemist doesn’t provide then it’s not far to drive into Filey, less than 10 mins I’d say.
It’s also a great location to base yourself if you want to go exploring along the coast .

Excellent accommodation
We simply love staying at The Salty Dog, the facilities are very good, the location is perfect for us and our dog to spend a few days relaxing in comfortable surroundings at any time of year. We enjoy walking along the beach to Filey and having a swim in the pool at The Bay afterwards. We also enjoy visiting Scarborough, Bridlington and Flamborough. There are lots of good dog friendly places to eat in the area (CJs in Filey is a great place for fish n chips) or you can get a takeaway and sit in the Crescent Gardens and /or visit Angela's tea room. We will soon be planning our next visit to the Salty Dog.

Perfect in every way
Not only was the accommodation perfect in every way the mattress in the main bedroom surpassed even 5* hotels that I have stayed in. Salty Dog was a real home form home, the kitchen was fully stocked even down to lunch boxes for picnics. We will definitely be returning.

Quality accommodation for a break with lovely personal touches
Stayed in many different Niki Beach accommodation on this site over the years but this has to be the best one. Everything spot on and on hand, very comfy and pleasant accommodation with many lovely little touches provided for by the owner. Décor throughout high quality in all respects, like unique nature of 'Salty Dog' throughout the property, beds, particularly comfortable and a lovely cake left for us on arrival from Sara and George.
Highly recommended for a break
