Entertain your friends and family with evenings spent snuggled in the sitting room or delighting in a delicious meal in the dining room that has been lovingly prepared in the well-equipped kitchen, while the woodburning stove roars. Continue through the ground floor and discover a handy bathroom and a well-appointed twin room, complete with its very own en-suite shower room.

Upon return to your cottage, be sure to stop off at the local supermarket for some tasty ingredients or enjoy a hearty meal down at the local pub with a refreshing glass of wine or a frothy pint. However, you choose to spend your days, be sure to book a stay at Wellington House.
South of Scarborough and north of Filey, on the east coast of Yorkshire, is the popular seaside resort of Bridlington. Located on either side of the ancient harbour, these two beaches are renowned for their fine golden sand and thriving tourist industry. Elegantly planned promenades include attractions ranging from carnivals to secluded benches from which to observe the world go by. Bridlington's shops, attractions, restaurants, and historic "Old Town" give an interesting contrast to beach life, where the newest Dad's Army has been filmed, and the Bridlington Spa Theatre on the front provides nighttime entertainment. The East Riding Leisure Centre provides both a swimming pool and a wide range of additional indoor activities, perfect for the whole family. Nearby are the popular tourist destinations of Filey, Scarborough, and Whitby, as well as the stunning Heritage Coast. The rspb bird sanctuary in Bempton, Sewerby Hall, Danes Dyke, and Flamborough Head with its cliffs and caves are just a few of the many attractions in the region. Excellent for sightseeing or for those who enjoy watching birds.

Ideal for a family get together. Great facilities & very spacious rooms with 3 ensuites. Everything was spotless & the kitchen was really well equipped with loads of pots & cutlery. Loved the hot tub & the kids enjoyed the trampoline. The owners kept in touch via txt which was really helpful. If I was to put a minus in think a couple more occasional tables in the living room would be perfect!! Great position for walking into town & the harbour, can recommend busy bees for fish & chips & the micro pub round the corner for great beer! We will certainly be back to stay at Wellington house!
