Reviewer: Sharon and Tony 1 review from this member

 We are regular visitors to Bobbybee's. We highly recommend staying here. We always receive a warm welcome. Our two daughters aged 12 and 6 love it. There is plenty of space. It is good to be able to have a camp fire. It is dog friendly, we don't have a dog but the owners have them on leads and there is a dog walk so there is no mess anywhere. There is plenty to occupy the kids, they particularly love the old fashioned tree swings and the ponies and all the little animals especially the baby chicks. There is a large camping field and tourers. The facilities are good and the staff are very helpful. There is a local pub which serves lovey food on Friday and Saturdays and do a great Sunday lunch. There is a local post office who also sell groceries. Burton Fleming is a lovely little village, great for walking and has a big duck pond.

We often visit Filey, Brid and Scarborough.

There are a few rules which are for the good of everyone - no noise after 10. 30pm, no speeding, encourage recycling.

This site doesn't have a swimming pool but there are two sites nearby which are open to non-residents.

If you like 'quirky' this is site is for you.

 We all had a great time. No problems whatsoever! Facilities and location perfect for what we wanted. Great price too. The nearby pub is excellent and great farm shop close by. We have made some new friends who we met here and have planned to go back very soon.

Reviewer: Knisis 1 review from this member

 We stayed here August 2014 over the bank holiday for 4 nights. We had stayed here the same weekend last year too and had really enjoyed everything about it. Unfortunately this time round a few things didn't quite match our expectations.

The site itself is very pleasant and will make you smile with all the chickens, bunny rabbits, ponys, and dog.

The site is split into 4 main fields, 2 for caravans and tents wanting electric hook up, then 2 larger ones for tents.

We were in-between the 2 tent fields against a tree line which gave us good protection from the wind. Our first night was very nice, a good fire with the fire pit hired for the cost of a bag of wood and a nice peicefull night just the owls in the trees to be heard.

From there is was all a bit annoying and disappointing, we tried to used the unisex shower, which was quite dirty(even the mop bucket was full of dirty brown water so couldn't clean it ourselves), each wanting 5 minutes of a 10 minute £1 shower. Unfortunately the water never ran hot and was in fact stone cold, this was apparently the case right up to the Monday. Not a big deal as we each used the single sex showers which were hot and more spacious but still could have done with a good clean.

The thing which was really annoying was the constant low drone of the generator which was brought up to the top tent field on our second day on site. This was a problem partly down to the campers not turning it off on a night, apparently because one of them was diabetic and needed a fridge running but they did turn it off once while they all went to the pub only to come back and fire it up again at 23:30. Then partly down to the owners for not enforcing the no noise after 10:30 request and also for not putting them on the electric hook up field to begin with.

Its a shame these things happened and have made us look for somewhere else next time and the location is good, just a short drive to the coast, nice pub in the village etc. But for £10 per person per night the standard of the toilet block should be much better and while the campers should have been more responsible and respectful of others wanting the piece and quiet of most camp sites, the owners should have done something about it to begin with.

 Just returned from yet another lovely visit to Bobby Bees. I just love this place. It was quieter this time, but still just as wonderful. The staff are great, helpful, pleasant, smiling.

What can I say? Bobby Bees is still my favourite site by far. Location brill. Campfire spot-on. Fairy-lights twinkling. Bunnies hopping. Quirkiness quirky - and being expanded with its new 'bottle walls'. Prices great even after the increase - £10 for an adult, £5 for a child.

All is good. Can't wait to go back again.

Feel at Home When You're Away in Bridlington

Instead of camping, why not try a house for your break to the East Coast ! At this delightful family home you will be close to everything that Bridlington Old Town has to offer. If you want the roar of the sea, then you will be just a short drive or 30 minute walk to the harbour and beach. The house is fully kitted out with everything your family need for a stay away from home. Up to 4 guests - living room - kitchen - 2 bedrooms - 3 beds - 1 bathroom - good size year round garden - parking for 2 cars

So don't bring your tent, airbeds and sleeping bags, and enjoy the feeling of being home from home. Find out more here

 This was our fourth visit to this site and it is a lovely campsite. Very quirky with rabbits running wild, and other animals. Owner and staff very friendly and welcoming. Great place to relax and truly chill out. Campfires are welcome as long as they are raised from the ground. Plenty of room per tent pitch. Great that the owner is big on recycling. The only issue we have as a couple is the lack of cleaning that takes place in the toilets and shower areas. We are by no means fussy and are willing to just get on with things and muck in. However, the toilets and showers let this campsite down. The first three times we came here the toilets and showers were lovely. All we are suggesting is that they are cleaned and maintained more regularly. For example, just emptying the bins daily would have made a huge difference. We will probably return as on the whole this campsite is a lovely place to stay. On a final note watch out for the Canadian goose, it likes to nip your ankles and can be quite painful!

 Stayed with my wife and teenage son. A really good site with plenty of room and good size pitches. People complain about the many signs around the site, but I don't mind them. It's better that everyone knows the rules and where things are. The site had a nice 'feel' to it and was very well maintained. It was also very quiet at night.

Toilets and showers were good enough. I didn't try the food van - there was food cooking but no one around to serve when I passed it.

There's a good local pub 5 minutes walk away. We met another family from the site in there and the lads played pool.

The site owner is very friendly. He's a collector and recycles everything, finding unusual uses for old items around the garden area.

I would definitely camp here again.

Reviewer: Pepelad 1 review from this member

 I found this site after an extensive on line search and after reading some of the reviews about its “quirkiness” and “eccentricity” it rather appealed. We arrived just after the Bank holiday and the site was relatively quiet with a mixture of caravans, T5s, trailer tents and tents. The pitches are relatively flat however remember to take a mallet to get your pegs in as the ground was quite hard. The lower part of the field is a bit more sheltered and less of a walk to the main facilities.

The owner was pleasant and I appreciated his sense of humour which manifested itself in the direct use of language on his signs. I also bought some of his free range eggs a mixture of rare breeds just laid, it really doesn’t get much fresher.

There are animals that wander around the site I spotted ponies, rare bread chickens, turkeys, geese and rabbits. Children seemed to be enjoying themselves on the tree swing, wandering around the site and looking at the various animals and curiosities dotted throughout.

The site is near a Pub only a 5 minute stroll, there is also a farm shop almost next door selling fresh veg and light refreshments. The coastal area is great to visit and there are some interesting stately homes nearby.

The toilet block was adequate the pot wash always had hot water and remember don’t forget your 20p s for the shower. The owner also allows campfires and will sell you wood to burn on his recycled stands which he will loan out for a modest fee. He doesn’t stock any small gas canisters and shops nearby close quite early so make sure you have enough.

I would definitely return again a bargain @ £5pppn. The weather was great and I had a 1st time camper with me who fully approved and definitely will repeat.

 Absolutely ace campsite. Everything you need. Flat fields, with numerous recycling points and fresh water taps. The site is clean and kept well. The fire pits are a brilliant feature. It has quirky features and lovely staff. We felt really welcome. The owner is hilarious and very accommodating. The chuck wagon is great for breakfast and we enjoyed a few glasses of Pims on the Sunday night. Will be coming again and will be recommending to friends. Thanks. Paul and John.

 Quirky site arrived to roaming cockerels, chickens, turkeys and rabbits, spotted a few donkeys as well as George the dog. The pitches are flat and well kept, facilities basic but adequate. Very family friendly. In a good location Filey only 10 minutes away by car. The site is quite at night as no noise after 10. 30. Seems well managed and for £5 per person per night you can't go wrong will definitely be returning.

Reviewer: Kilburnbust 2 reviews from this member

 Just returned from a visit to this campsite. To be honest it wasn't our first choice but we booked late for the bank hol weekend and struggled to get in anywhere. This site had good reviews so we thought we would give it a try. We have a tent with electric hook up; two adults and two children. We were charged £20 per night for a tent with two people plus £5 each for the children making £30 per night plus an extra £2. 50 per night for bank hol fri and sat night making a total of £95 for 3 nights which is extortionate in my opinion for camping - we have never paid no where near as much as that. Yes the site is quirky but it's also not clean.

Ladies toilets and showers are surrounded by birds cages and wandering ducks and geese so the smell is awful and going to the toilet in he dark is awful as you have no idea what you are going to stand in. My son of 8 years was sworn at and accused of chasing rabbits when he was playing tig with another boy ( we live on a farm - chasing rabbits is of no interest to him). The father of the other boy ended up in a row with the man outside our tent and the man threatened to come back in the morning and 'knock his head off'. Not a nice experience on our first night and we all wanted to go home!

We did get used to the roaming animals, statues with wellies on, junk laying around and dirty facilities and yes is quirky but not in a nice way. On the plus side the site is in a great location and the pitches are flat. The price is ridiculous in my opinion and in many years of camping its the only site I would definitely not go back to.

Sorry not for us.

 We have camped here several times in the last 3 years due to the campsite accepting pets, allowing campfires and mainly the price - £5pppn for a Non EHU tent pitch. (please note the price has doubled in 2014 to £10pppn)

The site it well placed for Bridlington and surrounding areas and has a pub nearby. The site also has a 'chuck wagon' that sells breakfast sandwiches and we're told turns into a bar on busy weekends in the evenings.

The site is big on recycling and there are several signs pointing out what goes where in the bins. The Ladies showers and toilets are located in a recycled Silo. You have to pay extra for the showers and I found the showers to be adequate. There is also a freezer located here for your ice packs etc.

The owner has a friendly Labrador that freely roams the campsite, along with turkeys, chickens and rabbits so if you're not an animal lover this may not be the site for you.

We were planning to return with family and friends in Easter 2014, but we have noticed that the site have doubled their prices to £10pppn.

This increase meant that it would cost our party £320 to camp over Easter on a site that has basic facilities, so we are reluctantly trying camping elsewhere for the first time in 3 years.

 We've just returned from two nights at Bobby Bees, which has now instantly become my daughter's favourite place. She's 4. There are guinea fowl, turkeys, rabbits, cockerels and chickens roaming the site, which is entertaining to say the least. We had read about the owner's dog, George, before we went, so he was already somewhat of a legend before we got there. He more than met my daughters expectations, visiting pitches, laying by the fire, making himself comfortable wherever. He seemed to have a nice nature though and I felt very comfortable with him around my little girl even though he's a huge dog.

Aside from the animals and quirky statues and things dotted around, the site has a rope swing, a tyre swing, a normal swing, all hanging from a big tree in the middle of the site. My daughter loved this and it seemed to be a great meeting place for the kids. Next time I will try to pitch closer by so I can drink coffee, whilst she socialises.

The quirky statues (lions, a pirate, some child mannequins, a boat, to name but a few) are absolutely wonderful and certainly give the site a great deal of charm and originality.

The bathrooms are spacious, not spotless, but they have homely touches and are pleasant enough - clearly effort has been made to put fresh flowers in and a few other bits and pieces. Sadly, the doors aren't great on the showers, so the floors were often wet which was a shame. But then people should also have a responsibility to leave the bathroom as they find it, and obviously not all visitors do this. Anyway, the bathrooms were spacious and private. We paid £1 for a ten minute shower which was decent and hot.

The chuck wagon is open on weekend mornings for a variety of sausage/bacon/egg sandwiches, as well as good coffee, and cold drinks. You can sit there and eat, or take your food away. The Chuck Wagon itself looked very clean and well stocked.

I would have liked to have seen the glitter ball and fairy lights lit up at the Cock and Bottle, but we didn't see that. Maybe this is for bank weekends only, along with the bar. We did however see a lot of fairy lights on the boat and various gazebos around the site, which my daughter loved. It certainly gave the site a real magical feel to it.

I enjoyed the atmosphere here. The staff and visitors were friendly. It has a great laidback feel to it. Camp fires are allowed (£5 per night for a firepit and wood). Gazebos are allowed too by the looks of things.

The location is fantastic. Five minutes from Hunmanby. 10 from Reighton Sands. 15 from Bridlington. 10 from Filey. Perfect.

I would have liked to see a communal freezer somewhere. Maybe I missed it, and it is something I'll be asking about before I visit again, as we had nowhere to refreeze our freezer blocks which is a big problem if you want to stay longer than a couple of days without electricity.

We will definitely come back to this site. Next time, as mentioned, I will pitch nearer to the swings or closer to one of the wooden table/benches that are dotted around. We might also pitch looking at the ponies.

I take my hat off to the owner for doing a commendable job. I will definitely be returning as much as possible. (At a fiver a night, its an absolute fantastic find. )

 Great camping site in the middle of Burton Fleming, a beautiful village. The site is certainly a little quirky and the owner may com across as a little eccentric but he and the staff are very friendly and accommodating.

There are animals such as guinea fowl, domestic rabbits, cockerels and a turkey roaming the site along with George the owners black Labrador who may help himself to your food and bits and pieces but he's friendly too.

The facilities are a little basic but clean and you may have to queue for a shower a peak times at 20p per 2 minutes.

Whilst I didn't use it there is a 'Chuck Wagon' serving breakfast sandwiches open between 9am and 10am and this may also serve on busy evenings.

The local pub is a 5 minute walk which serves good food at a reasonable price.

All in all a lovely site in a lovely location, very reasonably priced with basic but clean facilities. I'd happily return.

 We having been coming to this site with family for 4 years and was a lovely site to visit but sadly this trip will be our last! It has become too popular and is now a very busy site which is such a shame. We were pitched next to a group of families with dogs which were not on leads and the owners had no control of the dogs which kept darting into our tent and belongings all day! There was also a big group of lads with around 5 tents on the opposite field who played extremely loud music and partied until around 4am before fighting and leaving the site. By allowing these types of people on the site it has spoilt what was once a lovely peaceful campsite with good facilities.
