General
- Family-focused holiday park in a scenic countryside setting
- On-site fishing lake and loads of activities to entertain the kids
- Close to plenty to do on the East and North Yorkshire coasts
Skip to see – and stay at – this holiday park on the sandy East Yorkshire coast: it's likely you’ll love it.
Skipsea Sands Holiday Park is in a scenic countryside and village setting near Driffield, but is only a couple of miles from the stretch of Yorkshire coastline from Flamborough Head to Spurn Point – with Bridlington in between – and within easy driving distance of several sandy beaches. It has its own fishing lake and lands lots of activities and entertainment to float any individual boat.
Guests can be occupied day and night should they so wish: kids can work off energy at the adventure playground, chase a shuttlecock/football or rollerblade around the massive sports hall, before cooling off at the waterjets of the indoor pool, or going along to one of the many organised activities for all ages such as dance, football, water games and a club for the under-fives.
There’s a small charge to use the sports hall and for a couple of other activities like ten pin bowling and the intriguingly named aqua jets, but all other activities are free.
Elsewhere on site, bigger guests have access to the well-equipped park gym, while all ages can pile into the Pavilion family clubhouse for drinks and snacks; there are two other bars on site as well as The Sands diner with restaurant and takeaway.
Evenings are properly covered with a range of glitzy entertainment from live music to family shows.
Prefer to breeze gently through your hols rather than get involved in too much activity? A Jacuzzi, sauna and steam room are on site to bubble placidly at too, all included in your pitch fee.
Open from 23/03/2017 to 04/11/2017

Many sites set a maximum occupancy of 6/8 people per pitch, so try breaking your booking down into smaller groups to generate more results. For example, if you’re a group of 10, enter 5 people in your initial search and then book 2 pitches.
However, where the pitch or accommodation occupancy allows it, you can make a booking for up to 30 adults and 30 children in one booking.
To book multiple pitches or accommodation, use the 'Special requests' box on the booking page to ask to be sited together. Complete the booking form for the first booking (you can add a password and save your card so that we remember your details). Then click "Make another booking like this" at the top of the confirmation page to make the next booking.
Large groups: check the listing page for any group restrictions set out in the terms and section titled ‘Please note’.
Large tents/caravans: check the restrictions on unit dimensions to ensure your unit is suitable for the space you will be provided with.

Take the main A165 road from Bridlington to Kingston-Upon-Hull. The turning to Skipsea is signposted about 8 miles south of Bridlington. Take the B1242 into Skipsea, once you enter the village you will see Skipsea Sands signposted to the left just after a sharp left-hand bend.
Local attractions
The East and North Yorkshire coast is most visitors’ first stop, from the gannets gabbing at Flamborough Head and Bempton Cliffs to the seaside shenanigans and surfing of Scarborough.
If it’s raining, take the kids to Terror Tower: its two buildings and three floors’ worthy of grisly special effects should silence even the most horrifying sprog.
Flit to fab Filey for five miles of beach, its funfair and the start of the Cleveland Way; and nearby Bridlington for the Bird of Prey and Animal Park, harbour spy mystery trail and Bondville Model Village.
Further along the coast, goths and others enjoy beautiful Whitby; then have fish and chips at the Magpie café after an afternoon seeing Whitby Abbey and the replica of HMS Endeavour.
Closer to home is the 11th-century Norman motte and bailey Skipsea Castle, managed by English Heritage and to the west of Skipsea village.
Not quite as old but still impressive in our (history) book is Fort Paull, the only Napoleonic fortress still in Yorkshire and now with a museum and the last surviving Blackburn Beverley aircraft in the world. Bring a camera: you’ll want to snap the views from the fort over the Humber estuary.
Inland yields loads to do too, with the North York Moors and Yorkshire Dales National Park both within driving distance; as it’s Yorkshire, you’ll find stately pads, historic houses and museums of all bents easily accessible too.
A good option for a city day trip is lovely York, about an hour’s drive away: take a sightseeing bus around first to get a flavour of this chocalatey city’s history, then mosey around York Minster, take the kids to Jorvik Viking Centre, or just go shopping in The Shambles and the city centre.
