What a gem

Just returned from our second visit to Cayton Village. The site is a real gem, close enough to the attractions of Scarborough Bridlington and Filey but in a peaceful village location. Buses to all local resorts right outside the gate. The site is certainly a quirky layout but we loved the grass pitches, so much better than hard standing pitches in my opinion. The staff are grafting constantly to keep the lush vegetation under control but all the trees and shrubs make this a very pleasant site. The facilities are well past their best but are kept clean by staff. I look forward to the redevelopment but hopefully the site won’t loose all the grass pitches or it’s charm under the bulldozer!!

not up to expected Club standard

Booked the site 25th May for two nights and have a 7m MH. No Club sign on approach to site however a staff member outside giving information that this was the Club site. Booked in £29 for each night, allocated a pitch. Asked where the motorhome service facilities were. Answer - "There are none at the moment. On reaching the allocated pitch which was on grass and a slope.and this is after passing a number of unoccupied gravel pitches, I find the pitch is adjoining the next one with little space and the car owner parked a foot from the rear of my MH to the point that he shifted the pitch post. The toilet block was below a reasonable standard, old fashioned and needing the uplift now. The one constellation was the staff I met were helpful. Given the charge was £29 per night, (it was an English Bank Holiday) I would suggest the Club either get the upgrade done now or until review the unacceptable charges.

Nice Site

We have just returned from a lovely short weekend here. We arrived just before 8 on Friday 29th June and left about 15:30 Sun 1st July. After a little pitch allocation mix up we were given a nice pitch near the facilities. I had read the reviews and thought there might be some issues - but to be honest we never came across any. The staff were nice and friendly, we spoke to other site users that seemed fine. Ok we had discussions regarding the changes but people who weren’t happy have or are going. I did feel it was a shame that the site was going to receive such an excessive refurbishment. Maybe as it would have been somewhere we would have used next year but also as it has some nice trees and shrubs as part of the site. So in short - we loved the location, we loved the feel of the site and if possible will return soon. The price was more than fair too! We were kindly allowed to stay later on such a glorious day so made the most of it with a walk to the beach and a few hours sunbathing. I would recommend the site to anyone.

Good location

The location of this site is on the edge of Cayton village itself. There's a handy Premier convenience store in the village which is really well stocked and run by very friendly staff. There's also a chippy - the fish we had was delicious! There's a bus stop at the entrance to the site with buses going to Scarborough and Filey which is handy if you fancy a day off from driving. We went to shows at Scarborough Spa and to see a play at the Stephen Joseph Theatre - all were excellent. Seafront parking in Scarborough is free after 6pm! We also had a day out in Bridlington which we love almost as much as Scarborough! The site itself will benefit so much from the input of the CMC - some parts are just weirdly organised! The shower blocks are fine - key code entry which we couldn't understand. The site has ANPR barriers and they only work between 8am and 11pm - so no late nights or early departures at the moment! Also pitches for this season are allocated - it'll be better when you can choose where to be. It also needs better signage as parts of the layout are a bit confusing. So much potential though! We'll be back!

Good now and will get even better

Stayed for a week at the end of May 2018. Good security. All interaction with staff was great and very friendly. Location is good as it is possible to walk to a great beach (20 mins it took us). Short drive to Scarborough and bus service too. Stayed on the Laurels part of the site. These pitches were all fully serviced and further apart than the older part of the site. These pitches only wide enough for van and awning and car has to go at front, but not a problem as good amount of grass between them. The old part of the site was not so good - very little space between pitches and some had no car space at all. I think the plan is to change these next year. Glad we booked laurels. It looked like many of these were fully serviced though. There were lots of seasonal caravans which made the site look busier than it was. I did wonder whether the toilet facilities would struggle if all pitches occupied, but for half term, never had an issue. The toilets were clean and acceptable, but I have seen higher standards at other club sites. Site was very peaceful. A good dog circular walk allowing off lead walk through the trees around the laurels part of the site. Please retain this in your development!! This wasn’t well signposted though and I stumbled on it. I thought there was a large field for walking the dog before I went but this had been the case and the walk of the old site was fenced off to form a short path that really poor and inadequate, so finding the Laurels one was good! However Cayton bay beach is dog Friendly. As we don’t have young children cannot comment on their facilities, but there was a playground. The only visit to the village was to use the post office/shop. We did stop at the Tow Bar pub at the holiday village on the way back from the beach which was OK. Overall a good week and I’m sure this will be a great addition to the club and be very popular.

Great site and excellent location for visiting Yorkshire Coast and North Yorkshire Moors

I had read a couple of reviews before coming, we booked before we knew it was going to be a club site. All I can say is some people haven’t stayed in some of the sites I have, this site was very good in my opinion. We stayed from 23/04 to 03/05. Yes some of the original pitches could be considered a little on the small side but we stayed on The Laurals pitches which I think are newer. They are fully serviced hard standing with loads of room for van awning and car, you also get a large grass area adjacent to the hard standing. The toilet blocks were good, very clean and yes possibly could do with a refresh in the older areas of the site but they have sufficient toilets and showers, plenty of hot water and separate washing and laundry areas. The grounds are well maintained and exceptionally clean and it was very peaceful during our stay. Security is good with auto number plate recognition for entry. The site roads are made from compacted road planings but at 5mph you don’t need the smoothness of a motorway. I have absolutely no qualms about recommending this site and if you don’t find it satisfactory perhaps I could recommend a good hotel as an alternative.

Lovely site for visiting the coast

Please dont let one review put you off this lovely little site yes the toilet blocks are a bit dated but they were spotless when we went and thats more important that they are clean. The wardens were out daily to help keep the site running smoothly. Cayton bay a nice walk away altho be warned the paths to the bay are steep its easier to head down Lucy’s shack way and we made it down and back up with 2 dogs and a pram :) Great addition to east coast sites.

What a great location, everything on the doorstep.

Enjoying our first stay at this fabulous site. Great location with a short walk to the beach. Local bus stops right outside the gate to take you to Scarborough, Filey or Bridlington. The staff on site are extremely friendly, welcoming, and do everything they can to make your stay memorable. We will be back many times. Thank you
