Date of Visit: March 2016 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Mansilla 1 review from this member

 First trip in our Caravan after years as tent campers, returning to Thorpe Park which I last visited with my parents 20+ years ago.

Not much has changed! That's good and bad. Its still a very well located site in a walled garden, very handy for Bridlington, Flambrough and Bempton.

There is a new playground for the kids, and a huge games field. Toilets and Showers excellent. Unfortunately the TV / Games room is really showing its age. Things like electric and TV hookups are still perfectly functional but old. There really is no mobile reception. Didn't use the WiFi, so can't comment on that. Good circular walks are possible from the site.

Overall, a decent site but not outstanding.

Reviewer: FrTed 5 reviews from this member

 This site has potential to be really good, but there's work to be done. Firstly the good points: The washing up, toilet and shower facilities are excellent and very well maintained. Our visit was on a very busy weekend and never had to queue. Shop was OK for bare essentials and a few 'luxury' items but certainly not cheap. There are supermarkets a 10 minute drive away though if you need major items.

On the downside, we had the great misfortune to visit at the time of a caravan rally from one of the major clubs and I am sad to say they were the rudest bunch of people I have had the misfortune to camp alongside which put a huge dampener on the weekend - not helped by initial response to issues from the site manager, although this did improve. This is so rare as the atmosphere on campsites is usually great and incredibly sociable. We got the impression the site was geared up more for caravans than tents and pitches seemed to be quite tightly packed - perhaps as the site is within a walled garden. The ground is rather rocky and uneven, so pitching is not the easiest I have come across but manageable if you have rock pegs. The kids room is looking very tired and could do with a serious revamp. As some have already mentioned, there's NO mobile signal but that can be a blessing sometimes.

I think this site has the potential to be so much better as the location plus some of the facilities are really good. Other areas such as service and facilities for kids could do with some attention to move this site onwards and upwards. However, I doubt we will be back in a hurry due to the initial experience and bias to caravans.

Reviewer: Julielwall 1 review from this member

 Must start by saying how clean, tidy and well kept this site is, all other users were extremely pleasant and everyone seemed respectful of the camp rules and we had a very pleasant stay. THe staff we met were lovely. The toilet and shower block was very clean too. However. On the downside there is NO phone reception whatsoever and so if you need to be contactable whilst away then this site is not suitable. Which is a shame. The other thing I found hard to swallow Is the cost of the WIFI. Considering the fact that there is no phone reception which I do believe should be mentioned so they decide to charge you for use of their wifi. I think this is cheeky as you are a captive audience with no phone reception. It was Expensive and reception for that was poor too. There was a lot of the time the wifi would not work or was continually buffering and you can only use one code at a time so if you want to use the Internet on more than one device at the same time then you have to purchase ANOTHER code. £3 for 2 hours, £5 for 24 hrs and £10 for 3 days etc. I think this is cheeky and needs to be reviewed. This is the first campsite that I have had to pay for wifi and considering the poor wifi service I would rather pay a £1 extra per night and have it all in. I think the shop could be slightly better stocked and definitely open longer. The ball games field and dog field are as one, think it might be better to divide in relevant halves for safety and cleanliness. On this basis unfortunately we will not be staying again. If the wifi came within the price then we would definitely revisit and recommend.

Reviewer: Viks32 6 reviews from this member

 This site is amazing and so worth making the effort to visit!

The beautiful wall that surrounds the site makes the site look spectacular.

The pitches are a nice size, not on top of your neighbors

The toilet block is a good size with good facilities and clean

There is a games room, playground and fantastic field for ball games

There is a little shop on site stocked with the little things you might forget!

But the place is made even better by the staff. A very warm welcome, made to feel right at home great advice given about the area and things to do.

We WILL be back and HIGHLY recommend to anyone thinking of staying

Reviewer: Sparky69 22 reviews from this member

 Arrived at this site on Bank Holiday Monday for 5 nights after reading the positive reviews on this site. Well as other people have already stated, this is a well run site set in a secluded area just 4 miles out side of Bridlington. The site is only small with a toilet/shower block seeming to cope well when the site was full and was always kept immaculate. There is a games room for the kids next to the play area which contained table football, table tennis table and 2 arcade games as well as a TV set in one corner. There is a small fishing lake set at the far end of the large games field and plenty of room to walk the dog. Nothing negative to say about this site other than we could not get a mobile phone signal, but I saw that as a positive.

Would definitely recommend this site for those people who want a relaxing place to chill out.

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

Reviewer: SGreen679 3 reviews from this member

 Well, what can I say apart from what an excellent. Friendly staff, spotlessly clean toilet block, grass in perfect condition. All-in-all, a totally brilliant camp-site and very highly recommended. Free 2hour tour of the private grounds by the owner with refreshments. Small playground for the children and a small games room with pool table etc. Very Large well kept field for dogs, golf practice, running and ball games.

Well done Jayne and the staff.

Reviewer: Jojobo01 13 reviews from this member

 Once again returned to this lovely site. We spent the closing week here which included Halloween. All we can say is it was lovely. Site was closing for the winter but as always the management was outstanding. Toilets and showers clean always with hot water and shower gel. We have made friends with ppl at this site over the 4 years we have been visiting and we love it. Its quite and peaceful. We look forward to seeing everyone next year.

Reviewer: TheRibbiteers 7 reviews from this member

 Site easy to find with good access. We were greeted by very friendly wardens and chose our grass pitch within the walled garden. All very neat and tidy. The facilities were very clean with plenty of loos and showers with hot water. Excellent dog walk through nearby fields.

Ideally situated just outside Bridlington, only downside was some road noise during the day, mostly agricultural vehicles but it quietened down in the evening so no problem.

Popular site with seemingly lots of regulars and we would book again next time we are in the area.

Reviewer: Allfamfun4 10 reviews from this member

 We stayed here for a weekend in August and couldn't fault the site (the weather however was rubbish!).

Beautifully kept site, lovely little shop/reception, great showers, nice big playing field, lovely local walks, good sized pitch and very helpful wardens. Great place for a relaxing break and well worth the price.

Reviewer: Helenackroyd 4 reviews from this member

 Found this site on the off chance, an amazing little site and our favourite by far. Lovely kind man gave us lots of help. Toilets spotless with little extras. Showers very clean too. Shop very well stocked with everything you may need. Hook up points within easy reach. Water points at every turn. Bins well appointed and kept clean. Dog walk brill. Nearby pub very reasonable prices and food outstanding. All in all a perfect place, for us anyway.

Reviewer: Jojobo01 13 reviews from this member

 We have spent our 4 th year here and this year we did 18 nights. We love this site and its always clean and welcoming. Jayne and Geoff go out of their way to accommodate and our children love them.

Showers always hot and free with shower gel provided.

Games room keeps children busy.

Playing field is great for football and rounders.

Shop is well stocked and kids never out !.

Easy drive for filey bridlington and we went to Pickering steam fare this year.

Lovely walks and local pub is only 10 min walk from site.

We hope this site remains quiet and quaint and is one of our favourites.

Hoping to return soon.

Reviewer: Wheats1 11 reviews from this member

 Great site. Lovely, well spaced pitches. We had EHU. Warden very friendly and gave us a walks leaflet and told us where the village playground was. Pub within walking distance, but we didn't eat there.

Facilities clean, useful shop - able to order a paper. 10 min drive into Bridlington.

Huge playing field, nice not to have balls being kicked around your tent.

The most expensive site we have ever stayed on, but we didn't regret the extra cost and will return.

Facilities, great location for visiting bridlington we used the park and ride £3. 50 park all day with 7 people allowed to travel on the bus, a quite site with a small play area and games room that needs a bit of updating

 I have just been to Thorpe hall near rudston Bridlington. A brilliant site let down by a few things. The tv reception was none existent even though you plugged into there own system needs radical upgrading. The washing machine was broken from when we got there and had still not been repaired when we left after 10 days, it was in a filthy condition my wife was told it just wanted a new belt on the motor but it needed a full clean and overhaul. When I went to pay the shop was full of people the manager was on the phone taking bookings and there was no one else to serve or take money. Apart from poor management this site is a beautiful location and if things were put right I would go again. Lastly if they had a grass mower that collected the cuttings they would not go every where in your awning and caravan

Reviewer: Armstrmj 8 reviews from this member

 Really nice site.

Very friendly staff, we lost our daughter's dummy and the owner went out to the local shop to get us one!

Good facilities, shower gel provided in the showers, alcohol hand cleanser in the toilet emptying area, plenty of water, TV points etc

One (very) small criticism that I would have would be that the children's play area is very small and not really suitable for smaller kids. However the playing field is huge!

We'll definitely return.
