Having 2 parking spaces available is great. Very close to town and the gardens / sea. We loved our few days away.

The property was well equipped with a very informative property information book . Another plus is the 2 parking places with the property a boon in a busy resort like Filey . Would defiantly recommend Stones Throw its clean well equipped and comfortable all you need in a holiday let .
