Date of Visit: August 2009 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Kingy99 3 reviews from this member

 Stayed for 9 nights mid to end Aug '09. (Just got home).

Generally clean site. Staff are helpful within their remit. Close to Cayton village centre which has a great chip shop, two stores, a post office and a couple of pubs. Also a Morrisons a mile and a half away. 10 mins walk to Cayton Bay (beach). Very nice beach with small shop and toilets there. Bus stop for Scarborough and Filey outside the site so you can leave the car parked up if you want to.

We requested a pitch near the play area as we have young children. This was declined and we were allocated a pitch which we wouldn't have chosen and weren't happy with. (We booked well in advance - nearly two months and stated this at point of booking).

The pitch was small and on a bad slope. We parked our car next to our unit and it was so close to the next pitch they had to use their awning from the side or walk into our car!

Once away from reception the roads go from tarmac to mot and chippings. VERY dusty and not pleasant with the wind the site gets.

Showers were at best luke warm or often cold. I personally gave up on them after two days and stuck with the caravans shower which I could guarantee was hot.

We've never had as many people (adults and children) walking across our pitch as a shortcut - even when we were sat out! We had to ask them to stop. Not the sites fault, but not something we've had before.

We all agreed that the site is in a very handy position for Cayton beach (which is lovely), Filey and Scarborough but for us the cons outweighed the pros and we will not return to Cayton Village.

The kids were very disappointed that the park was so far away (site rules say kids must be suprvised on the play area which is why we wanted a pitch close with a view of the area).

You can get around the small pitch by booking grass instead of hardstanding. The grass pitches took up a lot more room.

Reviewer: Pammy Su 2 reviews from this member

 This is a really nice large site. Staff are excellent and very helpful. Shop on site, playground and several toilet blocks.

The site is well positioned for Cayton village and Cayton beach, a both in walking distance. Lovely pubs (you can take the kids to), and chippy in the village. Very handy site for Scarborough & Filey, being in the middle of them both.

On the down side the site is quite large, and they allow large groups of families/friends to come in together on the camping fields. The groups coral themselves on the field and this can be intimidating, and the can be noisy. On the plus side the site owner are very strict about noise, so if there are any problems tell staff immediately and they will deal instantly with the problem.

The site also gets very very busy at weekends, so getting a toilet/shower can be a bit of slog at these times.

Overall loved the site and will definitely use again.

 Campsite was very clean and tidy, toilet blocks kept very clean. Location of site was excellent, well placed for Scarborough, Filey and Whitby. Cayton Village had everything we needed and was only a short distance away. Majority of staff were friendly and helpful.

 Had 2 nights here. It's a great site between Scarborough and Filey, a short way (in the car) from Cayton Bay. Although it's quite a large site, it's split into sections and never felt overcrowded. We were in the rally field on the first night which has some hook-ups in one section. I did feel this was more of a walk to facilities but not too bad. It was a very spacious field but we went mid-week so I would imagine it packs out on a weekend. We moved onto the main park for the 2nd night as our pitch had already been allocated out. There was less room here but still pleasant. Toilets near to rally field were large enough but there were often queues. Big tip is to try the facilities by reception - peaceful and extremely clean with facilities to clean up after yourself! As others have said there is a little play area but it has wooden climbing equipment for more agile / older children. I echo the point that the camping field could use some play equipment too, though there was space for ball games and bikes which weren't really allowed on the main site. The staff were really helpful and the bins etc emptied regularly. I'd definitely consider staying here again.

 We returned to this site this year for its ideal location and have had good times here. I noticed how the site is becoming busier and feeling more crowded,pitches have appeared where they didn't used to be and as it was busy they cramming them in, however the feeling of the site was still nice and friendly .The staff are lovely. We had a nice grass pitch which was quite spacious but others were tiny in comparison. Tv reception isnt great but I don't watch tv.

The local chippie is good and not too pricey as are the pubs.

The site was always spotlessly clean and tidy as are the showers and toilets. We were always concerned about the number of dogs around and I wouldn't have been happy if id have been next to the guy with 2 large Doberman as we have young children and some pitches are close together and seemed to be surrounded by dogs that were tied up outside awnings.

All in all we had a lovely time and its a nice site but closed in and quite overcrowded particularly around the playground

Reviewer: Dingobee 6 reviews from this member

 I spent four nights camping on the rally field. This was very spacious and everyone had pitched up in rows leaving large areas for driving to/from tent, and also for children to play games, which was excellent. Although the field was very busy the noise rule was adhered to and I was able to sleep well each night!

The toilet block nearest to the camping field did get very busy at peak times, with a queue for the showers, but I walked a short distance to another block in the caravanning area, which was practically empty, so worth the walk. The facilities were kept very clean and stocked with handwash and toilet paper.

This seemed to be a good family site, and the staff were friendly and polite.

 Just got back from this camp site we had two tents, three adults two children, it was a very good site we were in the rally field. The only slight down side was that we were at the top of the field and had to go approx 200yds to the toilet block. The toilets themselves were kept very clean and the showers were free they also had a hairdrier that was a very reasonable 20p. The site was well maintained and the staff were very helpful.

There is a bus service that stops at the park gates that takes you into Scarborough or the other way to filey or bridlington. There is also a very reasonable park and ride system within a short distance from the park (approx 1/2 a mile ). Both the local village and the beach are in walking distance of the site although the beach is down a hillside and if you are taking a lot of things to the beach with you we would recommend using the car. The site is safe which made it great for the children as they could run about and play all day.

They have a light in the rally field so that you can see where you are going at night and all the campers that were there were respectful of each other and there was no noise after about 10.30 which is a big bonus if you are trying to get children to sleep. The electric is a 10amp system which is adequate.

There are plenty of water taps and the pitches are all of a reasonable level and the field is sheltered. We would recommend this site and we shall be going again to stay for longer next time. The rate of £22 a night in august we found to be very reasonable.

 Just returned from spending a long weekend at Cayton Village and have had a lovely time. Cracking place and perfectly situated for exploring the local area (Whitby, Scarborough and Bridlington).

The facilities were great: showers/toilets were cleaned regularly, small shop stocking necessities and a kiddie playground.

After all the rain we've had, the pitches were not water-logged. The grass was kept pretty short and the whole site was well tended and secure.

Reviewer: Keith007 2 reviews from this member

 We chose this site for a 7-day holiday based upon the pretty good reviews on this forum, but we were disappointed in some respects - but not all. Firstly we were on the far away Camping Field with electric; that meant on a strip along the bottom of the field, divided from the non-electric area by a rope fence. We had chosen this when booking before we knew, thinking we would be near our three daughters and their families who were coming for the weekend and they were all tent campers. But it just didn't work out very well. It was mobbed at holiday weekends - which is apparently normal! Also, the whole camping field was expected to use the one toilet block shared with one end of the caravanners main section. This was an absolute nightmare at weekends with a full camping field of some 75 units - mainly families with two or more kids! Almost no space to swing a cat. Queueing from 7am, for 90 minutes, for showers is not funny! Using the other toilet blocks became the norm with even longer walks of course.

Facilities for modern caravans on the Camping Field are not up to standard in my view. E.G. There is a stand pipe/tap for drinking water but NO drain for the disposal of grey water. Also CCCP points are miles away in the middle of the main caravan section!

There is a one way road system that does not loop round within the site - if you are driving, you have to leave the site and then come back in again! The barriers are 'number plate recognition' by cameras, both In and Out!

Apart from that, it was fine - not brilliant but OK. So if you are caravanning I would suggest NOT to use the Camping Field unless you are happy with all of the above.

Cannot fault the staff - they were marvellous, very friendly and helpful.

Reviewer: Tim-antonia 11 reviews from this member

 A very nice well tended site. The staff were friendly and helpful. The site is about 15min walk/5min drive from a beach which is excellent for surfing. When the tide is out it leaves a massive expanse of sand and rock pools, perfect for kids. We were in a tent and it was very busy while we were there, consequently the toilets and showers had queues of people waiting between 8-10am. Early birds will not have a problem. Although the toilets were busy they were clean and had plenty of paper. My daughters aged 8 and 5 thought the play park was very good it's a shame the tent field doesn't have one the same on it. I would recommend this site for families wanting a nice relaxing break.

 Just spent a 3 night break at this site. First time we have gone camping with the kids. Never known rain like it, on the first night it rained from around 9pm on the Thursday to well after 4pm on the Friday. The campsite held up very well, I expected it to turn into a bit of a bog but it was fine. The facilities were great, clean toilets and showers, small shop for the essentials and a play area right next to our pitch. Couldn't have asked for a better pitch. It did get busy when we got to Saturday but you have to expect that when it is the start of the school holidays. Large walking area for the dog which was ideal. Fish shop in the village and a few other stores close by were also very handy if needed.

Reviewer: Ctobin 1 review from this member

 This was our 1st camping holiday. We have 3 children of 13, 10 & 7.

The park was lovely, the staff very friendly & the facilities were excellent. (I have a bit of a thing about toilet facilities & was very impressed) - the toilet blocks were cleaned regularly there is a laundrette & are dish washing areas. The shop freezes your freezer blocks - although they do charge 50p per block.

Our tent pitch was just in front of the play area which was suited to the ages of my children (probably not so good for toddlers) & even my 13 year old daughter enjoyed herself.

Cant wait to go back again!

Reviewer: Tsm1971 2 reviews from this member

 Stayed for a week here the only down side for this site was the size of the pitch we were given for our tent was small. We had to peg the front end of the tent into the road bit, and then there was a small throw up tent with lots of land, so a little bit poorly set out on that side of it.

The site in general was very clean and in the centre of all the sites which were easy to get to. We made use of the new park and ride into Scarborough saved loads of money on carpark fees.There is a shop on site which was a bit pricey but ok if your desperate. There is a no noise policy after a certain time I think it was 10pm which is very good if you have kids and was much appreciated. Would stay again but would probably come with the caravan as they seem to get the better pitches

 After reading the reviews on this site we decided to book a one night stay here. Would have been two but the weather at home on Fri was awful and the forecast was the same for the east coast.

I rang the site Fri afternoon to book for the following day and the phone was answered by a bright and cheery voice at the other end.

A good start.

The reviews on this site are accurate. The site itself was lovely and kept spotless.

As we booked at the last min we ended up in the rally field which was brilliant.

Level field with lots of space around you. An area of this was kept clear and family's were using this to play rounders, football etc with the kids.

The noise rule was followed as someone behind us on the electric pitch turned there music up loud at 10:30 and they were told to turn it down and off at 11:00pm. Bliss!

Would definitely return

Reviewer: Kaz1953 3 reviews from this member

 Agree with a lot of the previous reviews with regards to area, friendly staff, etc. One or two problems though. Firstly, the staff seem to race their transport around the site, which seems to be powered by a diesel engine by the sound of it, annoyingly loud!. Also, a nearby farmer had just started to use a 'crow scarer' when I arrived. My dog is frightened of loud noises. She decided she didn't want to go on the dog walking field anymore. The dog walking field has also been designated as a nature walk for children. Strange but true. On various days people has been walking their dogs without cleaning up after them. I wouldn't have wanted my children to walk on there
