Glamping at thorpe hall near bridlington (added by manager 14 jul 2023)

Yorkshire Wolds site in the old walled gardens of Thorpe Hall
A 15-minute drive from Bridlington and 35 minutes from Scarborough
Coarse fishing lake and five-acre playing field

Set within the old kitchen garden walls of a country estate, Thorpe Hall Caravan and Camping Site is a quiet, peaceful and sheltered location to relax and unwind. The family-friendly (and dog-friendly) site is less than a mile from the small Yorkshire village of Rudston. Bring kit for a day at the coarse fishing lake or gather chums for games on the five-acre playing field (ideally cricket, in keeping with your traditional English surrounds, but anything goes really…). If you're after things to do locally, then a quick explore of Rudston (including a stop at the Rudston Monolith, the tallest standing stone in the United Kingdom) should top the list, before driving off to the coast at Bridlington,15 minutes away, for sandy beaches and sea-view strolls. And so to your digs… in the estate’s pretty walled garden, with plenty of space and shelter and access to a smart heated bathroom block that’s got disabled access and hot water available all day and all night. The small shop sells essentials such as milk and bread (and is a handy fount of local information too), and supermarkets in Bridlington are handily close by for all your barbecue bits.

Georgina J. Apr 2024

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked: The full site was lovely as were the site managers. Facilities were very clean and warm. The little site ship has essentials which is handy and there is a nice little seating area around a small fish pond. The huge playing field is also very convenient, and the play area was definitely a win with the 3 year old. The costs include EHU, upto 2 dogs and an awning, most other places I checked out wanted extra charges for these.

Disliked: Wouldn't say it is a dislike as such but one of the reasons for booking this site was because there is fishing on site, however, you can't take your dog with you. My dog always comes fishing with me and I didn't realise this until I had booked and then messaged them for the rules, so that was my own fault for not checking first. So I didn't get to do any fishing. The WiFi is not too good, however, that didn't bother me really.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for your review and rating Georgina. We're delighted to read that you enjoyed your stay and that we pretty much delivered on all your expectations. We're sorry that you didn't get to go fishing and we'll have a chat as a team to discuss if we can make the 'no dogs allowed' more visible. We do mention that Wi-Fi signal is variable and cannot be guaranteed in our literature and we're pleased to read that it didn't affect your stay, We hope to welcome you back again in the future but until then...happy touring :-)

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked: The staff were very friendly and helpful. They even moved us pitches on the last night as it was forecast heavy rain so we wouldn't get stuck on the grass. Lovely little shop, the site is lovely and clean, showers have plenty of hot water and are kept clean and tidy. We will defiantly be returning.

Disliked: The only thing is the WIFI and phone signal isn't very good especially in the bottom island. But I cant say that was really a bad thing.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for your review and rating. We're delighted to read that you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to welcoming you back again in the future. Until then, happy touring... We do mention in all our communication about the WIFI and due to the feedback around phone signal (which sadly is beyond our control) as of today, we have added this into the arrival email that all guests receive. We're glad it didn't spoil your stay :-)

Liked: The shower block and toilet facilities were fantastic, the area ideal for the coast.

Disliked: No phone signal no signal for the TV .....but wouldn't stop us booking again .....

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for your review and rating. We're delighted to read that you enjoyed your stay and we hope to welcome you back again in the future. We do actually provide a TV connection point for each pitch which will provide a good amount of channels (75+ usually) We communicate this in the booking email and the arrival email sent out to each lead guest (so when you come back and visit again you'll just a long length of coax :-) Phone signal is sadly beyond our control, is variable and very much depends on your provider and the infrastructure they have in rural areas. Thank you for highlighting as we will add this to the arrival email. Happy touring, until next time

Local attractions

Can’t get enough of these grand stately homes? There are plenty more options nearby to swan around in… Burton Agnes Hall is a 10-minute drive from base, Sewerby Hall and Sledmere Estate are within 20 minutes, and Burton Constable Hall (and its Capability Brown-designed grounds) is 45 minutes away. Perhaps the most famed, though, is the exquisite Castle Howard (45 minutes) – it’s starred on TV several times, playing the role of Brideshead (in Brideshead Revisited, twice) and Kensington Palace (in Victoria). Steer away from the country piles with a trip to York, a little over an hour away, to meet vikings at the Jorvik Viking Centre, cruise along the river or take a sweet trip into the past at York’s Chocolate Story. Or perhaps head to Hull (50 minutes) for more museum action and sealife encounters with more than 3,500 fish that live at The Deep aquarium. Swap both city and country for coast with a trip to Scarborough (35 minutes) for days on one (or two, or three…) of the beaches, a splash at the waterpark or peaceful ambles in the gardens. Filey (20 minutes) has another fine beach, and a clifftop golf course with cracking coastal views.
