  • 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 between 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 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.

What customers say

This campsite offers spacious, private pitches with many facilities for families, including a pool, playgrounds, and entertainment. Staff are frequently praised for friendliness and helpfulness. However, some visitors experienced issues with shower and toilet cleanliness, cold water, and Wi-Fi. Significant concerns were raised about rats in tents and a lack of direct beach access due to erosion, with some guests leaving early. Prices for food and drink were also noted as high.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Very friendly meet and greet, pitches were well maintained and spacious, all staff very friendly. Showers and toilets clean and kept in good order. Lots to do on site and a bus stop at the entrance.

Disliked Dogs not allowed into the bar area, ok on a warm evening but not very good in rain or cooler weather.

Andrew M.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Campsite and playground was nice . Shop was good price and selection

Disliked Expensive price of food and drinks when you can go to club round the corner for drinks at nearly half price The toilet blocks were disgusting the toilet were heavily soiled and was there the whole of our stay and never cleaned while we were there . Rats running round the tents . The bingo at £18 for a set of tickets when you can go to proper bingo halls for less than that .

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 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 and Bondville Model Village. Further along the coast, Goths and others love lovely Whitby; have fish and chips at the Magpie café after an afternoon seeing Whitby Abbey and the replica of HMS Endeavour. 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.
