We have visited Bridlington on several occasions, once at the same time of year with similar weather conditions, however never experienced the number of flys as on this visit. They were queuing up to get in as soon as you opened the door fly blind. It was impossible to keep them out of the van and our fly spray seemed ineffective. On this visit we had our 6 year old granddaughter with us and didn’t spend much time on site, anyone wanting just to chill out wouldn’t have found it particularly pleasant. Flys apart the site is of the normal high quality. Although this time, having a 6 year old we were able to evaluate the play facilities. There is a large field with a well equipped ball playing area adjacent to the new area of the site. Although what the site plan doesn’t show is the left hand end is now occupied by tents. For anyone booking a tent pitch they are about as far from the facilities as it’s possible to get. I certainly wouldn’t have considered it suitable when we used to tent. There is also a small non ball play area on the old part of the site. However, this seems to be filled with equipment centred around exercise rather than fun. The older kids there were singularly unimpressed, as was our granddaughter. There was no slide, or climbing frame both of which she really enjoys, a strange omission in my opinion and nothing at all suitable for anyone younger than her. You are spoiled for choice for things to do within a few miles. On this visit as we had also taken our car, so didn’t use the bus, the stop for which is at the end of the site lane. We made several trips to the beach at Bridlington. Good reasonably priced parking in a cliffside field at Limekiln lane, located between the town and Sewerby Hall. We also visited Flamborough head and RSPB Bempton, where she enjoyed the Puffin trail and looking at the Gannets with their young.
