1 / 24Castle House Farm
Hunmanby, East Yorkshire
A listed farmhouse for ten at Hunmanby near Filey with three sitting rooms, two ground floor shower rooms and an enclosed garden with a fire pit, two dogs welcome.
Somebody filled the utility room with hooks, left floor space for wellingtons, and put the games and the bats and balls in there too. Castle House Farm is a listed farmhouse at Hunmanby sleeping ten, dog friendly with two dogs allowed, and that room is where a week of sand and mud gets dealt with before any of it reaches the tiles.
The hall keeps its original tiled floor, worn uneven in places by generations of boots. An ornamental range and a bread oven are still set into the kitchen wall, and the dining room next door seats ten under Yorkshire sliding windows. Three sitting rooms follow: a lounge, a reading and play room warmed by a wood burner, and a quiet one at the end. Two shower rooms downstairs mean a dog is dried before it meets a carpet.
The fire pit is lit in the garden and the table that seats ten has most of them round it. Two dogs are patrolling the length of the lawn on the working assumption that somebody will drop something. Indoors the burner is going in the reading room and a child has annexed it with a board game. The swing seat at the top of the grass was claimed at four o'clock and has not changed hands.
Filey is the near town, a bay of firm sand under a headland with everything a seaside day asks for above it. North the coast runs on to Scarborough's two bays and its castle rock, and Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay are inside the hour with a steam railway coming out of the moors behind them. Inland the Wolds Way climbs away for a dog that prefers hills to sand.

Book with holidaycottages.co.ukFrequently Asked Questions
Is Castle House Farm dog friendly?
Yes, Castle House Farm welcomes dogs — up to two are allowed. The house has been set up with dogs firmly in mind, with a utility room at the entrance for drying off and decompressing after a muddy or sandy day, and two ground floor shower rooms so dogs can be properly clean before they reach the carpets.
Are dogs allowed at Castle House Farm year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so it's best to check directly with the owner when booking if you're travelling at a particular time of year. What we can say is that the setup — fire pit in the garden, a wood burner inside, a solid utility room for wet dogs and wellies — suits a stay in any season.
What should I know before visiting Castle House Farm with my dog?
The maximum is two dogs, so if you're travelling with a larger group bring that number with you when you book. The practical side of things is well catered for: there's a utility room with floor space for boots and kit, two downstairs shower rooms for rinsing off after beach or Wolds walks, and a garden for them to stretch out in. Filey's firm sandy bay is close by, and the Wolds Way inland offers good hill walking if your dog prefers that to the coast.
