Nice video!! I can't believe nearly all the fish & chip shops were closed!! Maybe because it's off season now they reduce their hours. Good luck on the next sea side find, I'm looking g forward to seeing where you go next!!
I spent 2 summers in near Filey, at Primrose Valley Holiday Village, 2001 and 2002. And I was shocked that I almost did not recognise one view other than the beach huts and general sea front. I must have spent too much time in the (or a) pub or recovering from a hangover. Come to think of it, I don't actually remember much about those seasons at all. But thanks for the video, I saw more of Filey here than I did in 2 summers.
Sorry mate you haven’t done Filey justice at all . A small seaside town in November what did you expect ? Filey is glorious in fairer weather , the bay and beach are stunning , it a bucket and spade , dog walkers holiday . We stay twice a year in dog friendly accommodation and love it , if you want arcades and bingo Scarborough is 8 miles down the road . A holiday abroad and two separate weeks in Filey perfect
@@chaddamp2894 exactly I am 73 this year and first went when I was 2 with me mam and dad to Primrose Valley it’s perfect and nothing beats that bay , perfection
My Wife has ms and can't walk so we can no longer do the simple things like we used to do when we fell in love in 1976 but we always look forward to going back ,we booked 2 times for 2024 in an adapted caravan on the Thornwick camp site, really looking forward to those days ahead XX@@susanyork5089
Interestingly, both had Butlins camps. The Filey one was just outside the town, it closed in 1983. It was the biggest holiday park in Europe when it opened. Skegness was the first Butlins camp, and still open now. Filey tends to be incredibly quiet out of season, so any time after the end of September. It’s a busy town from Easter until September. My parents would book a caravan at Primrose Valley ( who stretch over 2 thirds of the old Butlins site that was next door originally). We would go at Easter as a rule.
I first went to P V when it was stand pipes and toilet blocks , woken up at 7 from Butlins “morning campers “ loved it , that was our yearly holiday . Still go to Filey twice a year for a week , it’s hardly changed thankfully. We have booked PV for March next year fabulous accommodation it’s costing £1000 for the week how times change but Filey , never!
You can get to the bring from the beach but only when the tide is out Filey is fantastic spent many happy holidays and weekends there at the other end of the beach there are or were more shops and a cliff top cafe and a park browns or the broen room has thr best fish n chips
Bridlington is the most similar resort to Skegness? Nothing like it. Whitby, Scarborough, (I'm from Scarborough) Filey, Brid all retirement home, day vanner venues. Go for the view, a cuppa, back in the van, home. If you are a family with kids and the sun's out, east Lincolnshire coast every time, bigger resorts and simply more for kids to do.
@@richardburns5925 I meant that, while Filey has always been the quieter, posher, resort in that area, Bridlington has traditionally been the brasher one.
The longest bench in Britain is at Scarborough railway station measuring 139 metres. I don't know what use this info is but it would make an interesting quiz question!
@@everydayimeating3407 ..if you're going to find it you'll need to know how to spell it first ' Paignton ' 🤣 You said in a previous post Bournemouth was too far so don't think this place will make it onto your list as even further mate.
Filey for me .the town centre looks nice .amusement s have dwindled in the 2000s with a lot unable to make ends meet but arcades don't necessarily make a seaside resort .use to make a bee line for them as a kid. Pity about the .chippy s.
These review are bogus and biased. All the places with arcades and funfairs are rated bad and all those without are high. Clearly all tsted by old people who hate arcsdes and fairs.
Exaly if want a quiet holiday and want go for walks and relax go to Filey. If want a lot of thing tk do blackpool or skegness.. domt see why all the places with lots of attractions get rated low
Great video, but this proves one thing how the hell can Filey right higher than Skegness there is absolutely nothing there for what I can see in this video. It may have been in the back end of the year when you filmed it, but I live local to Skegness, and there is more at Skegness at the same time of the year, and a hell of a lot more in the summer, it just proves that you cannot believe anything on this how good your seaside town is rated score rubbish
I need to disagree with you im afraid 😱 you say there's not much to do??? It's the dead of winter lad 🙄 what else do you expect??? My mum who sadly passed away in 2011 would take me to this neck of the wood's/Primrose Valley on one parent family holiday's all the way from 🏴 they where the best day's of my entire life!

What type of seaside holiday do you like?
Which seaside town should I go to next?
Comment below 😀
Go Whitby
I have it on my list 😀
Go to Scarborough! It’s beautiful

I know! I can't believe they were all closed either lol
A lot of businesses in Filey shut up for the winter unfortunately for the residents. 😗
@everydayimeating3407 that's because they don't care about the residents 😮

Hmmm, nice place but I prefer Skeggy in summer. Skeggy also has fine clean sand in summer. Maybe you should go skeggy in July or August.
I think it would be a lot better in summer!
Maybe check out Saltburn on Sea, North of Whitby. Largely ignored but on a nice day is an attractive place.
Love Filey, would highly recommend The Buccaneer on Union Street
I must have missed it when I was there! 😞
Great Sunday lunch. ❤😊
Easily pleased 😂
Went to Whitby first time ever in my 66 years
Loved it
I've never been to Filey or Skegness so I can't really comment what the places are like. I can't believe there wasn't a fish and chip shop open
I know! I thought at least 1 would be lol
Sorry, but they do shut up quite early, especially in winter 😮
Have you been to Southend on sea or Leigh on sea
I have not, theres so many places I want to go
I am in filey almost march. Like a ghost town. No chippys open.... seems impossible to get fish and chips here off season

I need to visit again!
Near Filey, Bridlington is the most similar resort to Skegness.
I plan on going there!

Get to Devon, Dorset and/or Cornwall. I've never been to Skegness or Filey but I prefer the look of Filey.
I might venture there in the future
Hope you like fifties! 😂
The water looks a bit wetter than normal...
😂😂😂
Where I grew up I have fond memories
I love the sea and I've been to Filey ❤
That ingrams fish and chips is the best fish I have ever had the cod from there is unreal
I'll have to go back when its open!
Fish and chip shops in Filey are all good. No real difference between them all. Except price maybe. 🙂
😂
If you ever go to Filey again come in summer and check out cj’s
whatys your main job if you dont mind askin
That must be the longest bench in Britain!!!
I think it might be 😀
The longest bench in Britain is at Scarborough railway station measuring 139 metres. I don't know what use this info is but it would make an interesting quiz question!
Painton in devon maybe
I've never heard of Painton, I'll have to look into it 😀
@@everydayimeating3407 ..if you're going to find it you'll need to know how to spell it first ' Paignton ' 🤣
You said in a previous post Bournemouth was too far so don't think this place will make it onto your list as even further mate.
I will eventually make it to these places lol, maybe next summer 😀
go to scarborough!
I already have 😀 I spent 24 hours there with only £50, check out the video and see what you think 😀
You really shouldn’t review seaside towns out of season it really doesn’t give a true representation of the area as everything closes out of season
I live in Filey and go to Skegness on Holiday :D However Filey is far better, however I may be a little bias
Filey for me .the town centre looks nice .amusement s have dwindled in the 2000s with a lot unable to make ends meet but arcades don't necessarily make a seaside resort .use to make a bee line for them as a kid. Pity about the .chippy s.
It was out of season but I expected at least one chip shop to be open lol but overall I enjoyed it there! 😀
Filey looks much nicer.
The beach was really nice!

They are both great in there own way 😀

Skegness is horrible one main street a pier sea front with nothing boring no history no fishing boats half a day you have seen it all boring place
