  • Small rural East Yorkshire site in the hamlet of Great Hatfield
  • Three miles from the coast at Hornsea; Hull 25 minutes' drive
  • Next to the Trans Pennine Trail for walking and cycling
Heading to Hull, hitting the beach in Hornsea or taking on the Trans Pennine Trail? Whatever it is that brings you to this part of the country, Tower Hill Caravan and Camping makes an excellent base for an East Yorkshire break. This well-kept and peaceful rural site is in the hamlet of Great Hatfield, about three miles from the coast and the seaside town of Hornsea. It’s also got the Trans Pennine Trail passing very close by, so makes a handy place to bed down for a night or two at the start of your walk or bike ride. Tower Hill is a small site but it’s big enough to house a good collection of useful facilities, including a launderette, a washing-up area and toilet/shower facilities. It’s also got a wifi service that comes in particularly handy for planning days out or checking your walking/cycle routes. You’ll be allowed to bring along a barbecue to cook your meals here as long as it’s kept off the ground (no campfires though, please, for safety reasons). If you’d like someone else to do the cooking you may like to walk along the trail to the nearest pub, about 45 minutes away, or into Hornsea, an hour away, for pubs, cafés or a fish and chip supper on the beach. Hornsea’s also your nearest place for shops, and has various attractions including Bugtopia Zoo and boating on Hornsea Mere. Hull is about 25 minutes’ drive away for The Deep aquarium and the Streetlife Museum.

What customers say

This is a developing site with very clean and modern facilities, praised for its quiet atmosphere and spacious pitches. Its convenient location near Hornsea is a highlight, offering lovely countryside views. Some guests experienced issues with Wi-Fi connectivity and signage, and a few mentioned noise from other campers and the need for more on-site activities for children. Despite minor drawbacks, many guests found it to be good value and expressed a desire to return.

Deb T.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Very quiet, small campsite. Facilities are very clean and fairly new - showers/toilets/washer/drier, even cooking facilities in an open to all kitchen (chargeable). Off the beaten track but a short drive to the centre of Hornsea and the beaches, so not a problem.

Disliked No staff onsite it seemed

Electric optional grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked A good small site overall! The trip was made by meeting some lovely people, a small site but unfortunately can’t walk to any nearby locations or a beach etc. Not a lot for children, but a good small site if you’re staying in a group or lucky to meet some new people! Good facilities and great that there was WiFi.

Electric optional grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Space.the sceening around pitch areas. Wi fi was good.

Disliked The fact there was no one to meet you when you arrived, telephone the number and be told to plonk your tent anywhere. Also pound in the slot for showeres and electric in the washing up area. This would no be to bad but a coin machine dies not take cards (be aware) The night was spoiled by some other campers screaming and shouting at each other all night, this was not thd owners fault but still..........

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Nice little site, peaceful, good size caravan pitches. Amenities are good, we liked the little kitchen area. Excellent base for visiting the area. We are looking forward to returning 😀 😊

Disliked Some area's require a little TLC, looks like some area's are under redevelopment. But this wouldn't stop us coming back.

Stefanie W.

Electric optional grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Nice location, nice views across the river.

Disliked Nobody around to regulate pitching, so everything was a bit haphazard and people were pitching all over the place, groups with not enough space for a firebreak etc and cars blocking empty pitches. Could do with a bit more oversight as a really nice site overall. Toilet facilities a bit tired.

Local attractions

Hornsea is likely to be your first port of call – you can drive there in about five minutes, walk in 45 or cycle in 20. There’s a lovely sandy beach up here, with plenty of places to pick up fish and chips or ice creams, and several other attractions including Bugtopia Zoo, Honeysuckle Farm and boating on Hornsea Mere. The town is also home to a leisure centre with a swimming pool, and an outlet shopping village. For a wilder stretch of coast, head over to Mappleton beach (five minutes’ drive), or pack your binoculars and make your way to Flamborough Head (45 minutes) to look out for seabirds. To see marine life instead, head into Hull (25 minutes) for a day at The Deep aquarium (the free Streetlife Museum, home to all sorts of old vehicles, is well worth a visit too while you’re there…) Other places to visit in the area include Burton Constable Hall & Grounds (10 minutes) and the lovely town of Beverley (25 minutes), which is full of independent shops.
