What customers say
Spotless campsite in a walled garden, with roomy spots & great amenities, especially the showers. Friendly staff get a shout-out too. Super peaceful vibe for unwinding. Handy for Bridlington, good pub nearby. WiFi's a bit dodgy, but still ace for cleanliness & a great time.

From the manager: Thank you for your review. However, we're sad and somewhat surprised to hear that there was nothing you liked about your stay with us. We urge all potential customers to read our details on the site prior to making a booking so that they can be sure the site meets their requirements. We also urge those who have made a booking to read the subsequent information we send out. All important and useful information is contained within.
You mentioned on arrival that you expected an electric pitch despite the fact that you made a booking for a non-electric pitch. If we could have upgraded you we would have but we were unable to help as it was the Bank Holiday weekend and we were fully booked.
The image which you'll have seen when you chose to book the non-electric pitch was very accurate as it showed the pitches with tall trees and hedges to the sides and rear. The network and mobile signal is very much down to your service provider and not the campsite (though we did mention in our correspondence to you that Wifi, phone and and TV cannot be guaranteed due to factors outside our control)
Please also note, we have no agreements in place with any taxi firm. When you asked us to call a taxi for you on two occasions we were more than happy to oblige but we cannot take responsibility for any charges that were agreed between you and the driver.
Sadly you won't be back to visit us but we wish you Happy Touring for the rest of the season and beyond...
Fantastic site. Well set out…

Liked Fantastic site. Well set out and quiet.
Kim and Neil are so helpful. I loved my extra night in the temporary field. I’d forgotten it was Bank Holiday and I didn’t want to drive as planned on the Saturday.
Will definitely visit again.
Disliked Nothing!

Liked Second time staying here, did one with electric and one none electric near the games field. Throughly enjoyed both stays. Beautiful setting, good facilities and clean showers.Friendly helpful staff. Will be going again as it was a great base for flamborogh and surrounding areas. We stayed in our Vw camper.

Close to Bridlington and Flamborough.…
Unpowered grass motorhome site (adults only)
Liked Close to Bridlington and Flamborough.
Disliked Overpriced for a campsite without electricity, £29.50. Located next to a sports field, where youngsters played football until late (the field was supposed to be adults-only). Noise until late. Plus, it was full of people with dogs, which often ran off-leash. Only portable toilets.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your review, we're disappointed that you didn't enjoy your stay but we shall try and address your comments below.
- We are confused by your feedback of being overpriced as when you booked it yourself via PitchUp you chose to book a Non-EHU pitch and would have been quoted £29.50 a night. It's at this point that you could have chosen to look for another site instead of booking ours?
- The pitches were adult only, the field was not so we are sorry if this caused any confusion.
- It states in the description that facilities are a 150m walk away and whilst the portaloos were in the shared use field for your convenience, you also had full use of the facilities block (toilets, free showers, plentiful hot water)
We did get a call from you but only about people playing ball too close to your unit but when we came around to visit the site they were at the far end of the field. However we did offer you the option to move to a choice of other pitches. Had you mentioned the other things that you were unhappy with we'd hopefully have been able to find solutions to some, if not all of them.
Would highly recommend
Powered grass caravan site
Liked Everything - we were in the paddock, kids loved it, well kept site, nice and quiet to relax, great open park away from site for kids to play.
Disliked Nothing really other than the WiFi but we were warned about this not a game changer for us.

Unpowered grass tent site
Liked Friendly and clear instructions on pitching at arrival. Clean, quiet site with excellent facilities. Owls and stars at night. Maybe just our luck? Easy drive to coastal attractions, the monolith at Rudston and Burton Agnes Hall and gardens, all well worth a visit.

From the manager: Thank you for your review and rating and we're really pleased to know you enjoyed your stay with us. You were lucky but on many clear nights the dark skies are amazing (and when we get it, the aurora too)! We hope we get to welcome you back again if you're in the area :0)

Powered grass caravan site
Liked Friendly staff. Despite me parking incorrectly and then setting up then Tentbox the staff saw the funny side. The playing fields were great to use when quiet with the dogs. Clean, tidy and warm toilets and showers.
Disliked WiFi didn’t work but the site are honest and say it is intermittent. Good to not have some signal for a short while so not a huge issue but it will be for some.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your review and rating Barry. In all honesty we are just getting to grips with the Tentbox ourselves as whilst we thought it was just a box on top of a car and that they all opened out the same way it turns out to be so much more :0) We hope to be able to welcome you back again in the future but until then...Happy Touring!

Powered grass caravan site
Liked Great location, friendly staff, good dog walking facilities.
Fantastic community pub within a short walk (15/20 mins)
The Shower was very good, the site was quiet during our stay.
Disliked The bathrooms were a little tired, and the pitching instructions we found less than clear, but small issues that would not prevent us returning to this site.
Poor wifi
