  • Family-focused holiday park in a scenic countryside setting
  • On-site fishing lake and loads of activities to entertain the kids
  • Close to plenty to do on the East and North Yorkshire coasts
Skip to see – and stay at – this holiday park on the sandy East Yorkshire coast: it's likely you’ll love it. Skipsea Sands Holiday Park is in a scenic countryside and village setting near Driffield, but is only a couple of miles from the stretch of Yorkshire coastline between Flamborough Head to Spurn Point – with Bridlington in between – and within easy driving distance of several sandy beaches. It has its own fishing lake and lots of activities and entertainment to float any individual boat. Guests can be occupied day and night should they so wish: kids can work off energy at the adventure playground, chase a shuttlecock/football or rollerblade around the massive sports hall, before cooling off at the waterjets of the indoor pool, or going along to one of the many organised activities for all ages such as dance, football, water games and a club for the under-fives. There’s a small charge to use the sports hall and for a couple of other activities like ten-pin bowling and the intriguingly named aqua jets, but all other activities are free. Elsewhere on site, bigger guests have access to the well-equipped park gym, while all ages can pile into the Pavilion family clubhouse for drinks and snacks; there are two other bars on site, as well as The Sands diner with restaurant and takeaway. Evenings are properly covered with a range of glitzy entertainment from live music to family shows. Prefer to breeze gently through your hols rather than get involved in too much activity? A Jacuzzi, sauna and steam room are on site to bubble placidly at too, all included in your pitch fee.

What customers say

This is a popular family-friendly site with spacious pitches and good facilities, particularly for children. Staff are frequently praised for their friendliness and helpfulness. While many appreciate the clean and well-maintained areas, some visitors note that toilet and shower facilities could be cleaner and are dated. Access to the beach is limited due to coastal erosion. Food and drink prices are considered expensive by some.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Campsite and playground was nice . Shop was good price and selection

Disliked Expensive price of food and drinks when you can go to club round the corner for drinks at nearly half price The toilet blocks were disgusting the toilet were heavily soiled and was there the whole of our stay and never cleaned while we were there . Rats running round the tents . The bingo at £18 for a set of tickets when you can go to proper bingo halls for less than that .

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Campsite was overall clean and well kept. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Pitch was spacious for the price, with access to electric and water. Showers, toilets and washroom cleaned daily.

Disliked Food and drink in pub or shop, use of washing machine and dryer and activity prices were far to high. Park's Wi-fi in touring bit was not available and we had to use our own internet, even though there were statics all around us with wi-fi available, it felt a bit odd but very common for Park Deans parks to do that. Shower was cold and stayed on for 10 seconds only, annoying.

Disliked where do i start ! we booked for the bank holiday friday till monday, came in our motorhome pitched up to a big pitch . The dog bins were overflowing . dogs were suposed to be on leads at all times but some were running around people not bothered that their dogs were out . went for a rest but was on edge looking for my child because of dogs . was like being on a camp site for the bad behaved loud people shouting drinking dogs barking all the time . came home saturday could not stand the noise and stress any longer . cant walk on beach no way to get on . only 3 showers in the block near us and toilets could do with a good clean. wont be back .

Local attractions

The East and North Yorkshire coast is most visitors’ first stop, from the gannets gabbing at Flamborough Head and Bempton Cliffs to the seaside shenanigans and surfing of Scarborough. If it’s raining, take the kids to Terror Tower: its three floors’ worthy of grisly special effects should silence even the most horrifying sprog. Flit to fab Filey for five miles of beach, its funfair and the start of the Cleveland Way, and nearby Bridlington for the Bird of Prey and Animal Park and Bondville Model Village. Further along the coast, Goths and others love lovely Whitby; have fish and chips at the Magpie café after an afternoon seeing Whitby Abbey and the replica of HMS Endeavour. Inland yields loads to do too, with the North York Moors and Yorkshire Dales National Park both within driving distance; as it’s Yorkshire, you’ll find stately pads, historic houses and museums of all bents easily accessible too. A good option for a city day trip is lovely York, about an hour’s drive away.
