Perfection

What an absolutely stunning campsite this is. The showers are immaculate and the pitches are very spacious. Lovely tranquil and peaceful setting perfect for relaxation. The staff are constantly on the go around the site and are all very pleasant and friendly. The village has 2 definitely and possibly 3 public houses all serving well cooked food and all dog friendly. The only snag is the quite steep hill climb back to base camp, not sure on availability of local taxis but would be worth the fare after a few sherries. First visit but definitely not the last.

Back to our favourite Club site

It was a welcome return to our regular site following a thorough site revamp. The new shower blocks are superb, both in terms of quality and ease of use. The site has lost none of it's charm, and is even more family friendly for 2023. The site had only re-opened one day before our weekend break, and is still getting back to full operating standard. We will be returning before the season ends.

Back again

Love this site. Plenty of coastal towns to visit. The site is well kept & easy to get to. The facilities are being renewed this October so should be even better.

Excellent site

We have just had a 2 week stay at this site. Our second visit. This is a well looked after site by hard working friendly staff and worthy of a 5 star rating for the effort that the staff put in. Will definitely be going back after refurbishment. 10/10 to the staff.

Don't hesitate

Our favourite site, it's closing for refurb (I can't see how it will get better ) and we are impatient to book for next season. We are lucky to live within 90 mins drive of this site, but if we lived hours away we would still visit. The team are brilliant and the site is awesome 🙂

Perfection

We were fortunate enough to stay on this site before it closes for refurbishment at the end of September. I personally thought it was perfect as it is. The site layout is varied and interested, lots of different sections. Team are very helpful and friendly and the site is well maintained and spotless. The way it was laid out didn't indicate just how large this site is. Our children are grown up but they would have loved the kids area. The dog was very impressed with the dog walk. Brilliant location for visiting Pickering and Whitby and you could easily visit York. I would like to give special mention to one of team, Graham who came to our rescue when we were hitching up. What a lovely chap went above and beyond. Thanks so much Graham. We are sad that we will not be able to see you until next June when you re-open we will be regulars.

West Ayton nr Scarborough a pleasant surprise

We were pleasantly surprised by this, rather large, site, because it was nice and green and peaceful. Probably thanks to the (8 shaped) lay-out it didn't feel as large as the site actually is, which is really pleasant. Lots of grass and trees in sight: lovely! For us Dutch the site was also very convenient to get to the (night)boat in Hull in time. We were even allowed to stay on site until 14.00 pm, which was great. All in all a very good site, eventhough the toilet-/showerfacilities do need (and probably will get) a face lift! Did miss the stools too, but they are probably removed because of Covid? Thanks for our short stay! René and Lideke Van Gool, Leiderdorp, Holland

Lovely Site for a family holiday

We spent a week here in the summer holidays, this is a lovely site. Welcoming staff as we expect who couldn't do enough for us and a tidy and well maintained site. The facilities, while a little dated were always spotlessly clean and the showers were both powerful and HOT!! The kids loved the play park and the table tennis went down a treat with them - and us. The pub nearby - Olde Forge Valley Inn was absolutely great for food - the pizzas are HUGE - don't have a starter if you want to even make a dent in them, although they will box up any leftovers for you. We explored for the week, within an hours drive of the site we visited Scarborough, Whitby, Filey, Robin Hoods Bay, Bridlington and York. Filey was an absolute favourite as always - try rock pooling at the Brigg and Bridlington was the best for crabbing by far. We ate our body weight in fish and chips and ice cream and despite the not so great British weather we had a fab week - this site is perfectly placed and has a lovely feel to it. I'm sure we'll be back.

9th summer holiday and we're still not bored with it

Having spent the last nine summer holidays on this site I have always felt that we would one day get sick of the site but it still hasn't happened yet. The site was extremely friendly this year with a good mixture of seasoned caravaners as well as welcoming some new caravaners who have only recently taken up the hobby. I rarely used my car during the week as everything we wanted was close by. West Ayton has a great shop which is well stocked, a petrol station, a fantastic chip shop and an equally fantastic pub called the Forge Inn which serves good food and cracking hand-pulled beer. The walks up High Yedmandale and the Forge we brilliant as I caught my first site of two Peregrine Falcons, a female Sparrowhawk and a Tawny Owl which likes to hunt around the caravan park at nights. The site was a sun trap and when it did come out we knew about it and the first few days were glorious leaving me and the family with nice tans. Trips to the North York Moors Railway at Pickering and Grosmont were great and I even enjoyed a near heart attack as I plunged into Wykeham Lakes when my son persuaded me to go to the Wykeham Aqua Park across the road from the site. My only complaint is that my son beat me every day at table tennis and I only hope all the proposed modernisation in the winter will be ready in time for me to seek revenge (although I am prepared to wait). Special thanks to the wardens who all worked hard and were fantastic yet again.

What a fantastic find

We booked this site for our first week of our 2 week holiday and wasn’t disappointed. Would especially like to say a big thankyou to Debbie and her husband who were very approachable and helpful during our stay, which was more than could be said about one of the other wardens who I believe wasn’t a regular warden she was quite rude and offhandish with me when I went to reception with a question, I know we all have off days but her attitude was not acceptable. As a family with 3 children the play areas were very well received and our children spent many hours on the new climbing tower. They made lots of friends and many happy memories. Although the campsite was full I must say it didn’t feel that way as you were still able to get some peace and quiet. My only criticism of the site would be the toilet/shower facilities they are very old and need updating, something I believe is being addressed the later part of this year, Needless to say this definitely wouldn’t stop visiting the site again when we’re back up north.
