Well we have been going to this site for many years and to be honest since it has been part of the Skirlington group we have noticed the prices going up and the standards going down. I do not want to use the facilities at Skirlington - if I did I would go there. There should be a discount if you do not use their facilities.
This visit our son was already camping there and we asked for the nearest EHU to their tent, we were told someone had booked the nearest one but had not paid a deposit so we could use that EHU but may have to move it IF they turned up! (how can you book a pitch without paying a deposit?)and he told us we could borrow an extension to the hook up so we could pitch nearby.
So we pitched up and asked about the extension only to be told 'Sorry none left they are all lent out!'
The toilet block was in a disgusting state the whole of our stay, I did not see it cleaned once. Families seem to just let the kids out at break of dawn and just let them do as they wish which included sticking a couple of rolls of loo paper to the toilet ceiling and the constant filling up of water pistols!
The site is now very noisy and security is non existent. The guy on the quad shouted abuse at our son across the field telling him to stop his children from playing around the loos when they were playing at the opposite end of the field.
All in all not a very pleasant experience this time will think long and hard about going again especially at those prices.
Just got back from four days at Cliff Top Caravan park.
Lovely spot, right on the cliff tops. Had a choice of where we wanted to be, so chose a spot with uninterrupted views out to sea. Perfect for a bit of chilling out and relaxing.
There was a pleasant welcome from the staff when we arrived (sales person for the statics I think). We were allowed to pay later as card machine was playing up, which was handy.
The site is small, with a few statics, an area for tents and the sea front area for tourers. We were one of about 6 tourers, and there was loads of room between each van.
The toilet / shower facilities were fine. I only spotted one other person there in the time we were there. Three showers, push button type, but large cubicles and a fold down chair to no wet clothes/shoes. Clean enough, but due to grass cutting floor ended up a mess after a bit.
There's two water points, for fresh water, near the toilet block, and one Elsan point. Disappointingly this was in full view of the site, I'd have preferred it to be round the back out of view, it also didn't have a hose on the tap, which made for hard rinsing of the loo cassette. Also, no obvious grey water disposal point, so we used the Elsan point. ? Worth noting the fresh water points are quite a trek from where the tourers are pitched.
Couple of issue for us, the grass was cut while we were there, and our mains hookup lead was disconnected while they mowed round our van, sadly the person cutting the grass then forgot to reconnect our van up! So the fridge had begun the warm up and some of our frozen goodies were no longer frozen. No big deal though, just a little disappointing oversite. We mentioned it to the staff and had a little knocked off our stay.
The second issue, is really cost, at £18 compared to some sites, it might seem a touch steep. I didn't mind paying that as the views are excellent, without the busyness of other coastal sites. I imagine you are paying for the facilities on offer at the Skirlington groups' other sites (pool/sauna/etc etc) just up the road (1. 5miles away). I'd prefer the option of not using these other facilities (as we didn't) and say paying £15 p/n - those wanting to use the facilities up the road pay £18 p/n?
Anyway, enjoyed our stay, managed to walk across the cliff tops into Hornsea (2. 5 miles), also can get down the cliff, carefully, at one point to walk on the beach, but its a bit steep and I wouldn't recommend to anyone not strong or confident on their feet.
Good pub nearby, a 5-10 min walk in the village, but no village shop.
Been going now for the last 5 years, with Tent, Husband and 2 children and a dog. The staff are lovely, they don't intrude.
The toilets and wash up room and showers are very clean. There is lots of room for the kids to run about and play games. I am glad there are no other facilities on site as it makes the children play cricket or fly kites etc and no extra cost.
There is a pub called the Black Horse in the village. They do excellent meals, and take out pizza and have a beer garden.
You also get passes for the Sister site, which is a lovely walk off the road. Lovely relaxing holiday, well for me anyway.
We have had our first visit to this site and fell in love with the place. First of all we met a very friendly guy in the office who passed us on to a man on a quad who give us a choice of pitches, again he was friendly and very helpful,
The views were second to none,
The toilets and showers were modern and clean with plenty of hot water,
The grass was nice and short and the place was spotless,
Not a lot for kids to do unless they make there own entertainment with a ball, kite etc,
Plenty of room without disturbing the caravans,
We have already booked our 2nd visit and cant wait
Just got home after spending a week at Cliff top. It was our first time camping, so we were unsure what to expect. Overall we were very pleased with the facilities which are basic but very clean. I was impressed with the shower block, which was always lovely and warm in the early hours. A couple of teens turned up for the night and left a mess the following morning, The site owner was quick to attend and deal with it. There was no mess at all around the site in general and there are plenty of dog poo bins dotted around and refuse facilities. The owner has done all they can to keep this site as clean as possible and deserves credit for it.
We would recommend this site for lovely views and cleanliness.
We have just come home from a fantastic weeks holiday. 2 adults and 2 kids aged 8 and 12. First time at this site. I will sum this site up in a sentence. Nothing at all apart from bin area, a shower block and pot wash. Having said that, we knew there wasn't anything on camp and was only using it as a base. A lovely place to stay if you just wanting to relax and chill out.
3 showers in the block, once had to wait 10 mins or so, but most of the time straight in. The water was always hot, no matter the time of day, but as with all camp site showers, the flow was not fab and it goes of every 20 seconds and you've to press the button again. Chair in each cubicle for your clothes and a hook at the back of the door. The shower blocks are warm and generally clean, although the frequent grass cutting, sometimes leaves the floor a mess, but they do clean once a day and that is not the fault of the camp. The Bin area has plenty of bins and are emptied regularly. There is a large open space for the kids to play footie, frisby etc.
There is a way down to the beach from camp, but is very steep and although my two kids managed, both me and my hubby ended up on our butts! The office/reception is a static caravan as you first enter the site. I found the staff both helpful and friendly, and apart from a every now and again drive through the camp by the owner, they were non intrusive and left us alone for the full week. Dont pitch a tent by the white track as you drive in because tractors drive past often and leave behind dust that lands all over your car, tent and anything you have outside!
The walk to Skirlington can be walked from camp in 15-20 mins (clear pathaway from roads and cliff tops) or driven in 4 or 5 mins(1. 5 miles away). On Skirlington camp there is chippy, shop, park, laundrette, club house with 2 bars and cafe area, pool and sunday and wednesday car boot and market. We went to Skirlington camp a few times and it was really good and all facilities are free to use with your pass, that is given on arrival at Cliff top.
While we camped we went to Hornsea Freeport, not massive but ok. We had 2 days in Bridlington, where there is loads of rides arcades, speedboat rides ect. And I cannot recommend enough the 'bridlington leisure complex' which looks like a giant arcade on the sea front but inside there is a cinema, bowling and the best cavery I've ever eaten at on the second floor. We also spent a few nights in the Pavillion again on the front, where there is a wacky warehouse style place for the kids and live music. There is also a leisure pool on Brid front and at around 4 quid per child provides a few hours entertainment. Although we didn't go this time, there is the john bull rock factory, with soft play centre attached, a Sealife Centre in Scarborough and Mr Moos ice cream factory just down the road. We also took a day to Flamingo Land, with is about an hours drive from camp.
All in all a really good camp if you are willing to find your own entertainment and we will definitely go to this site again.
Great campsite. Drive on and cliffs on left (with some static caravans on) and some tents, and on the right is a big flat grassy field for caravans and tents. Very spacious. Grass mown exceedingly short which is fantastic in the morning with the dew!Toilet block very clean and well maintained. 4 toilets and 3 showers in ladies, never had to queue to use either. Has some electric hook ups but not sure if there's enough available for every camper so check when you book. Campers are pitched round the edge of the big field so it's fantastic for kids on their bikes to ride round the middle on, play tennis etc.
No shop or other facilities. No shop in village either according to a local, although you can either walk across the cliff top (25 mins) to Skirlington caravan park (who are linked to this site)along the public footpath, or drive (2 mins) to the well-stocked shop there. Skirlington site also holds a massive car boot and market on Sundays (and Wednesdays too in July and August. ) The market and car boot are split so it's easy to choose if you don't want to visit both.
The Black Horse pub is a 5 minute stroll down the road, does food and has a quiz (I think) Fridays. Entertainment is on at Skirlington and you also have full use of their facilities (swimming pool, fish & chips, supermarket, bars etc. ) 40 minutes walk along the beach to Hornsea (check tides!) which is lovely. Hornsea has some lovely little shops and a quite large Co-op for a bigger shop and a museum which is worth a look for £3. It also has a shopping outlet if you're interested or if it's raining but that is further out of town. You can also walk to Skipsea via the other direction. Beach access down a steep slope behind reception.
BBQs allowed if raised. Not cheap at £17 per night per tent plus £2 per person but it's great for kids and it accepts dogs too. Fabulous views and wherever you are put on the park you will be literally 2 minutes from wonderful sea views.
Been on this site for many years if you like sea views quite this is the site for you bank holidays can get full.
Close to most places. Nice little pub in village (walking). Nice walk to Hornsea along the beach and to Skirlington camp site, where there is a fish shop and good shop which sell some camping gear pegs etc
Great site we went with our friends who were in a tent. The owner was very helpful placing us near the toilet block as we had a disabled child with us. There is lots of room and the views are to die for. The toilet/shower block was clean although the showers could have stayed on for longer. The washing up facilities were also clean and tidy. We will be going back.
Site is well placed for visiting the east riding coast with plenty of space apart from that its rather disappointing. The facilities block is modern but generally unkempt appeared to be cleaned once a day, no toddler facilities apart from a nappy changing unit in the washup room, I would say if you have young children then this site is not for you. Local pub 10mins walk from site serves good food but service could be better. Hornsea is quite unspoilt you can still have a cheap day out on the beach with the kids, lookout for the Panto at the Floral Hall cheap but cheerful and the paddling pool on the prom outside the cafe when the beach is rather cool the kids love it. Hornsea Freeport is disappointing with many empty units maybe a sign of the times. A visit to the mere is good plenty of space and water fowl, hire a rowing boat for the family approx £10 an hour for a family of 4, cafe on site for a reasonable snack or lunch. Went to Skipsea but I think it must have disappeared with the cliff erosion.
Brid was fine typical holiday resort with plenty of activities to amuse the children.
