Date of Visit: August 2008 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Piper144 3 reviews from this member

 We booked this site for our holiday with the grandchildren as it is close to the beach and has easy access to Bridlington via the land train [or a good walk]

However on arrival there had been a long period of rain and our pitch was under water [as were mos ] Reception had said that if we needed boards for the pitch to go back and they would be provided, however there were only 3 boards left for the whole site!

The main problem is that the pitches are surrounded by an access road which is higher than the grassed area and there are no drains on the road so all the rain water has only one place to go - on the pitch and hardstanding and into your awning. Access to the inner pitches is poor and really needs setting out in some type of order to allow access without cutting through other campers pitches.

The Shower block was spotless and was cleaned regularly although on one occasion the bath was blocked and my wife had to unblock it herself only to find the water was stone cold - this had been reported by another camper but she was told by a member of staff' what do you want me to do '

This could be a really good site but money needs to be spent on drainage or expect to be flooded if it rains !

Oh and watch out for the steel site number posts which also have the electric supply on them as they are situated and the back of the hardstanding and it looks like many vans have made contact in the past.

In conclusion , a nice site if the weather is good- a mud bath if it isnt !

 We had a lovely weekend here with two kids age 11 and 8 and my gran who's in her 70's. The site is well kept and wardens are helpful and friendly as were all other staff. Three nights cost £60 with electric which was fantastic value considering the facilities on site. The club was really nice and the meal we had was good value at under £30 for us all.
The children's entertainment was good fun and the dj is great with the kids giving out prizes etc. The shop on site was well stocked and the fish and chips were lovely and reasonably priced. The shower and toilet blocks were really clean especially the new block and there are plenty of them too.
The walk into Bridlington is nice and flat and the paddling pools and cafe's are about 15-20 mins steady walk away although the land train is good fun to ride back on. The beach at this end of Brid is nice too. There is a morrisons about 5 mins drive away which is handy and does cheap petrol too. The only downside to the site is a bit of road noise through the night but the great facilities and value make it worth putting up with

Reviewer: Tomo50 27 reviews from this member

 Would not be a site I would return to. Pitched far too tightly. Overpriced shop, chippy and restaurant. Too overcrowded pub. Boggy ground. People not adhering late night noise ruling. Old outdated shower blocks. Good location for Bridlington - beautiful seaside town - Filey also worth a visit.
Would benefit from a pool onsite. Should not let 'non campers' into club / restaurant which was obviously done by number of cars parked on road at night time as there was a barrier in operation. Met people who had been coming here for 30 years? Why?? Marks out of 10 - generous 6

Reviewer: Rae_t 23 reviews from this member

 We were booked in for two nights. We chose this site as it was the nearest to Bridlington. We could walk to the beach and down the prom to south and then north Bridlington easily.

When we arrived however, it had rained heavily and the site was more like a football pitch than a campsite. We had a hardstanding pitch with a piece if grass next to it for the awning. This space was a mudbath with the last occupant's cigarette ends, primark clothes tags and remnants of last night's tea floating in it. The pitches are packed together tightly and at one point we had to ask the man next to us to move his car so that we could peg the awning out properly.

The toilets had been cleaned but became muddy quickly and the shower curtains were mouldy and too short so the water went all over everything left outside the shower - dry towel,clothes etc.

There is a children's play area but it consists of two pieces of equipment and a football area. There is also an overpriced on site shop, chipshop, arcade and pub. We decided to give the pub a miss however as it was standing room only by 7.30. It was also very noisy, with other campers around us not seeming to realise that there was a noise curfew until about one o'clock in the morning.

As east coast resorts go Bridlington is a very nice place, however, South Cliff (in our opinion) isn't. We had booked for two nights, we packed up and left after one!

Reviewer: Joandpete 7 reviews from this member

 I usually just go to caravan club sites as you can always guarantee excellent facilities, however there is a shortage of caravan club sites in this area and after reading the previous reviews we decided to try this site.
We were very impressed with how well the site was looked after, there has recently been a new toilet block installed and this had plenty of showers and was kept very clean apart from some messy people who cant clean up after themselves but no fault to the site owners.
The pitches are a bit cramped together although it wasnt too busy when we went, towards the end of the week it did start filling up.Plenty of Water and elec hook ups close to all pitches. It had a very good playgound which my 6 yr old boy wanted to be at all the time. Didnt go to the makis as clubs not really our cup of tea.
Good site shop and although it is a large site with loads of statics the touring area was kept quite seperate. You can walk to the beach from the site and walk from the south to the north side of bridlington on the prom or catch one of the land trains(but thats quite expensive).
The deep in Hull is about 40mins away and well worth a visit. Lots to do in this area and Bridlington has something for all ages, but prefer the north side to the south.

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: Stecky 8 reviews from this member

 What can I say, absolutely fantastic. Can't complain about anything from the kids play area, shops, toilet/shower block all A1. In the club you usually pay over the odd's on the beer, not here, very cheap. Me and my wife will definitely be visiting again very soon.

Ps fish & chips yummy.

Reviewer: MickD 6 reviews from this member

 Stayed at this site 4/5 times over the last few years and haven't had a bad holiday yet.The new shower block is excellent and the site is kept clean and tidy.A 5/10 minute walk off site across cliff tops takes you to seafront where you can take the 'noddy' train to Brid.We do this every time and never use the car when we stay here unless weather is bad.

I have to agree with the comments about Makis bar.It gets very busy and by the look of it half of the people in there are locals or off different sites,leaving you no chance of a seat unless you get in just after teatime.

Ever since we started going here they have been going to build a swimming pool,don't know what the excuse is at the moment for not building it,what with the revenue coming in from the bar but we are no closer to one than we were 5/6 years ago.

This is still a very good site and is no worse for the lack of a pool and we will return here without hesitation.

Staff are friendly and helpful,shop is ok and chippy is good.

Kids enjoyed the play area and can cycle around site in safety.

No dogs on site was a big plus point for us,not having to look out for the nasties and no incessant barking at all hours.

All in all this is a good site, needs updating in some areas but otherwise ok.

Reviewer: Berther 4 1 review from this member

 Went to this site on 21/04/08 and really enjoyed it, it's quite close to the beach and our 3 year old loved it. It's got a good club on site with good entertainment for the kids and adults , and a decent chippy on site too.
We had a good sized hard standing pitch and were close to the water and waste point. The shower block was a bit old but we get showered in the van so it didnt really bother us, however they were building a brand new shower block which looked like it was nearly finished.
We had a good holiday and we have booked to go again in august, the pitch prices are very resonable and the staff are very friendly.
The site is in a good location quite close to bridlington town centre, and I would recomend it to anyone. 


Date of Visit: September 2007 Unit:  Static
Reviewer: Jeanette1 3 reviews from this member

 We have been going to south cliff for a few years now in both a tent and in a static caravan. My family all love South Cliff as it is an easy walk into Bridlington in the day time and at night the makis complex is excellent for all the family. I would recommend South Cliff to anyone whether you have small children, teenagers or no children at all. It is a good place to go and the food is brilliant. The showers and toilet block are cleaned regularly. The small shop on the site stocks everything you need and even does telephone top ups.

If you want something different to eat you can have fish and chips on the site, food in makis, or there is an italian restaurant on the next camp site.

The walk into bridlington takes about 45 minutes, but there is a land train you can catch along the front, these trains come every 20 minutes.

The only thing I would add would be an internet point for the teenagers to go. But this is not a problem as there are plenty of internet cafes in bridlington to go to.

Reviewer: Smooth 13 reviews from this member

 We have been using this campsite for over 15 years, but have found little improvements. The toilets need improving and also the showers. ALTHOUGH to be fair they are cleaned on a regular basis.
It is very handy for the beach and a nice stroll onto the rock factory. The club on site is good and the fish and chip shop is very tasty. The shop is very well stocked.
My only complaint is that my little dog has to stay at home where as the static site on the other side of a gate are allowed as many pets as they want. Most caravan pet owners clean up after their pets so a doggy walk could be a bonus to this site. Who is to say that a static caravan owner loves their pets more than a touring caravan owner. It would be nice that if in 2008 pets were allowed to accompany their owners for a holiday at South cliff caravan park.

 Just back from here, perfect site to visit Bridlington.
 
On the whole we liked the site, the tent pitches are close together, with limited parking nearby (If all the pitches were occupied you would have to park elsewhere) They are also next to the children's play area. You could also hear the noise from the club. The shop was reasonably priced, The meals in the Club were OK. The shower and toilet facilities were clean but not pristine, Mouldy shower curtains etc. There was plenty of hot water all day and I never had to queue for any of the facilities. My wife did queue to use the bathroom once when she went to bath the children, but not for long. (This facility is obviously popular for those with little children.)
 
The beach is a short walk away, It is possible to walk into Bridlington, There is also a land train service that can be used to shorten the distance

Reviewer: Rubyred 1 review from this member

 First stayed here in a static in 2004 loved it so much we came following year. This was the first place we stayed in our tourer for a weekend.
It is a nice site, the club is friendly with great entertainment for the kids. Fish and chip shop and site shop both great. Easy walking distance to beach although longer walk if you like a dog free beach like I do. No dogs allowed in tourer section which I like.
The showers are basic but fine and clean.
The only down side is the tourers are too close together which is why we now only stay for weekends. If the pitches were bigger with more space between we would stay for a week.
All in all a great site and we will be back.

Reviewer: Shell G 11 reviews from this member

 We visited this site for the May Day Bank Holiday and we all were really impressed with it. The site is very clean and well looked after. We were on the tent field and this overlooked the park which worked well for us as the children (all 4 of them) could go on their own and we could see them from our pitch. The site shop is well stocked. The club-house was very nice and not smokey, prices were good too. The only thing this site misses is a swimming pool but we went to Bridlington Leisure World and it only costs £10 for a family ticket so what you save in paying for your pitch is worth not having a pool on-site and a little trip into the town.

Reviewer: Sandersons 3 reviews from this member

 First visited this site as a static caravan aged 7 in 1977. No club, no electric to statics and the chip shop the ladies! We had the third plot behind the shop.
How it has now changed 30 years on and caraving myself. Still the same old toilet block on the tourers that was there before, although it is old it is quite clean. The new block is better. Makis, has proven to be a huge sucess since it opened some 20 years ago. Pulling in all the site for nightly entertainment. It a good site for beach, and walks into Brid. Or you now can hop on the train which will take you down the front. Brid is our second home, and I feel safe there alone with my two children. Have stayed on this site twice this year, and will probally stay twice in 2007.

Reviewer: Roddy45 2 reviews from this member

 Visited this site on several occasions in the past mainly due to it's location, which is ideal for the beach and Bridlington.
Other than location though, the site dosn't deserve it's 4 star rating. The toilet blocks are in need of major refurbishment, with the showers either very hot or lukewarm, and only one peg behind the door to hang your clothes.
The childrens play area / basketball court is quite small, with a larger area / football pitch needed for older children and teenagers.
 
Touring pitches are close together and soon become flooded after a downpour as drainage is not as good as it could be.
The sites maintenence staff appear to be going through the motions, and only do as little as possible. On the last occasion we were there, the refuse bins were overflowing and I regularly watched staff walk by, with no effort to pick litter up or empty the bins.
 
Caravans have to off the site by the early time of 11.00am on the day of departure, and can only stay longer if £3.50 is paid, and no one has booked the pitch for later that day.
 
With some investment, and staff that care and are trained properly, the site could be one of the best on the east coast, but I wont be returning until changes have been made.
