  • Simple and scenic rural site a mile from the Yorkshire coast
  • A mile from Hayburn Wyke waterfall; Scarborough 15 minutes' drive
  • A few minutes' walk from the Cinder Track path and a pub
Few things in this world can compare to flitting around the Yorkshire coast. Toing and froing between Scarborough's seaside scenes to Whitby's clifftop abbey is best done by bike along the Cinder Track, an old railway that runs through the green surrounds of the North York Moors National Park along easy flat terrain. And when it comes to finding somewhere to rest your head after all that pedalling? The Hulleys Campsite could well be the answer. This simple and scenic rural site is set a few minutes' walk from that traffic-free bike trail and 10 minutes from a local pub. On top of that, The Hulleys Campsite is within easy strolling distance of the coast (roughly a mile from base), where the splendid Hayburn Wyke waterfall makes a very pretty backdrop for picnics, walks and general seaside frolicking. It's a five-minute drive from these spacious pitches into the village of Cloughton, where a couple more pubs and a farm shop are on hand to keep you fed and watered during your stay. For supermarkets and a wider range of restaurants, steer yourself towards Scarborough (15 minutes). The Hulleys Campsite prides itself on keeping camping here simple. The facilities reflect that, with low-key but functional toilets and showers. Dogs, barbecues, commercial vehicles and student groups are all welcome.

Camping pod

Liked Really enjoyed our stay at The Hulleys! It’s tucked back from the main camping area, so you get a nice sense of peace and privacy. The pod itself is spacious and well thought out, with camp chairs provided if you need them, a kettle and a BBQ which was a lovely touch. The whole site feels open and relaxed, and the host is super friendly and laid back. There’s even a great pub just a short walk away. Perfect spot for a chilled camping break!

Disliked The pod was comfortable overall, but it did have a slightly damp smell when we first arrived. The postcode doesn’t take you directly to the site, so we had to search on Google Maps to track it down as it’s quite tucked away. Toilet facilities were very basic, though they were kept clean.

Primitive grass tent or campervan campsite

Liked Close to whitby and scarborough.
Views.
Has its faults but still scored it a 10 as its good value. But if problems were sorted i would happily pay more.

Disliked No one on site to sort any issues hence some campers abuse the site, large groups, rowdy, loud music, shouting etc. Multiple vehicles parked outside pitches
Setting up at 11pm when last check in is 9pm.
Avoid weekends if you like peace and quiet
Too many dogs off leads
Toilet block needs a good clean and a revamp, partially showers. Bring toilet paper as it runs out regularly. Soap dispensers and paper towels were empty too.

Camping pod

Liked The calmness, the pod, the view was amazing, the quietness of the site and the owner, James , was really friendly.

Disliked Not really a dislike but the toilet/shower block ( which was clean) could perhaps be a little bit updated .

Camping pod

Liked The views were amazing, the site is quiet and tranquil. Lovely walk to the pub and waterfall, pod was nice and the bed was so comfortable we didn't want to get up. Alot of reviews mention the showers and facilities not being great but i thought they were perfectly sufficient and as expected for a campsite.

Disliked Pod didn't seem like it had been cleaned as the previous occupents dirty teaspoon was left and the towel was filthy. The blind needs replacing too.

Liked Great for an overnight stop on the East coast. Simple, basic campsite with great views of the coastline. Scarborough is only a short drive for the essential fish n chips. Pitches are clearly marked and the facilities are clean. Liked the opportunity to charge phones too.

Disliked None

Local attractions

Planning a trip to Scarborough is easy, as Britain's first ever seaside resort is a mere 15-minute drive to the south. Donkey rides, Victorian buildings like the Spa, sticks of rock and amusement arcades are all available here, as are two sweeping sandy beaches, the Asian-inspired landscapes of Peasholm Park and Oliver's Mount, a large wooded hill 500 metres above the town with a well-stocked fishing lake and fantastic far-reaching vistas. Whitby (half an hour) is the other must-see town in the area, but this part of Yorkshire is peppered with other sights too – there’s Flamborough Headland Heritage Coast (40 minutes) with its nesting birds and beaches, Sewerby Hall and Gardens (45 minutes) for tours round a historic country pile, Flamingo Land Resort (50 minutes) for adrenaline and excitement… Want to focus on the North York Moors National Park? Ride out on mountain bikes through Dalby Forest (35 minutes), step among the scenic stones of Rievaulx Abbey (an hour and 10 minutes) or get down to the village of Goathland (30 minutes) to see the Mallyan Spout waterfall and a train station that featured in the Harry Potter films.
