  • Well-stocked fishing lake on site
  • Pool, sauna, steam room, indoor/outdoor play and bar-restaurant
Don’t forget your bucket and spade… a golden sandy beach is a short drive from Sand-le-Mere Caravan & Leisure Park… The beach is only the beginning at this smart family site, where the owners have invested £4 million on a swish range of activities and facilities. Tiddlers, small sorts and bigger kids will all be sorted at the indoor heated pool with a kids' splashzone and waterslide, or at the indoor soft play areas and the outdoor adventure playground. There are also pool tables and amusements for indoor family competitions. And for the grownups? Well, they might care to simmer gently in the sauna and steam room, or spend some time with their fishing kit. Anglers are excellently catered for here: a coarse fishing lake is on site, and the stretch of coast from Bridlington to Spurn Point is so famed for fishing that Sand-le-Mere hosts the annual European Beach Fishing Championships… Whatever you opt for, collect the kids for an evening in the bar-restaurant, where there's also Sky Sports, a café and takeaway.

What customers say

This is a well-maintained, dog and family-friendly site with excellent facilities including a swimming pool, sauna, and steam room. Guests enjoyed the spacious pitches, some with the highly-rated en-suite option. The location, close to the beach, and friendly staff were frequently praised. However, several reviews highlighted significant issues with the cleanliness and maintenance of toilet and shower blocks, with some finding them outdated and in poor repair. Food was also mentioned as being expensive and, for some, of poor quality. Noise from entertainment and other guests was also a concern for some visitors.

Damien D.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked The Hardstanding Pitch: A total game-changer. It was level, clean, and kept the van (and our shoes) mud-free, which made setup and pack-down incredibly easy.
Prime Coastal Location: Being just a stone's throw from the beach is the biggest draw. Perfect for morning walks and catching the sea breeze.
Clean Facilities: The touring block was well-kept. Having hot, reliable showers and tidy toilet facilities makes the campervan life feel a bit more luxurious.
Easy Access: The park layout is easy to navigate, and the hook-ups were positioned perfectly for a standard campervan setup.
Friendly Vibe: The staff were welcoming, and there’s a nice community feel among the other tourers and motorhome owners.

Disliked Ground Hardness: While the hardstanding is great for the van, it can be tough on standard awning pegs. Make sure you pack some heavy-duty rock pegs if you're setting up a side-room.
​Distance to Hub: Depending on which area of the touring field you're in, it can be a bit of a trek to the main entertainment hub and shop—fine for a stroll, but something to note if it’s raining!
​Coastal Exposure: Because you’re right by the sea, it can get quite breezy. If you have a pop-top or a light awning, just keep an eye on the wind speeds!

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (premium)

Liked The proximity to the beach was excellent , lovely walk. Lots of activities for children , site was quiet despite being busy. Staff were helpful and friendly. The children’s park was brilliant my son loved it. 5G was good.

Disliked Food in restaurant wasn’t great and quite expensive for the quality.
Touring pitches were quite close together , ours over looked an old storage barn which wasn’t great.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (ensuite)

Liked The staff were really friendly and helpful!
The pitch we were given was not suitable for a trailer tent but they were happy to offer us a different one!

Disliked We had an en suite hard standing pitch and it was dirty.
I saw the cleaner with nothing but a spray bottle and cloth going in to the blocks for a minute or so which is not sufficient to clean a shower, toilet and sink.
I cleaned it myself.

We attempted to use the main shower block in the hope it would be cleaner, these were discussing and did not use.

The bar area is lovely but also very poorly cleaned with glasses everywhere. It wasn’t busy so no excuse for this.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Pitches were spacious, and close to the entertainment block. Plenty to do onsite for families. Easy to access and we would come back for a weekend again.

Disliked Shower block was in need of an upgrade but it was kept clean and tidy.
The entertainment and music is loud and can be heard from the caravans until after midnight, this doesn’t bother us but may deter others.

Lisa W.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (ensuite)

Liked The ponds are nice and all the ducks/swans. It was lovely to see.

Disliked We booked a ensuite touring pitch and it was gross and the little heater was broken so it was absolutely freezing. Never been cleaned in its life. No toilet roll. Couldn't take a shower because it was too cold without any heater in there, not that I would have because it was just vile. Hairs all over and poop in the toilet. No bin. Couldn't even find the onsite bins! We also had to go back to reception for the key because it wasn't given to us on check in!
Those around us were using the ensuites even though they weren't parked in the bays for them, it was a free for all if they weren't locked.

It cost £34 for 3 bacon sandwiches and two cups of tea (plus a glass of water) for breakfast. Cafe down Sea front was £15.40 for 4 actual meals and brews/drinks and it was yummy.

Swimming pool is small, my key bent in the locker and we had to wait, wet through and freezing, for 20 mins for help that never came. All the staff just disappeared once the session was over.

Electric charger in the carpark kept disconnecting so couldn't charge our car.

Wifi was shocking. Everywhere.

You have to buy a card for the arcades, none of the machines take money.

Not for us unfortunately.

Local attractions

York’s many attractions cater to all tastes: history hounds, culture vultures, wannabe Vikings, shopaholics, and train- and plane- spotters. Scale the soaring heights of the Minster, plough the gory depths of the dungeons, or lose all sense of direction in the massive York Maze… Hull (35 minutes' drive) is well worth a visit, for its fab aquarium, transport and maritime museums, Ferens Art Gallery, and William Wilberforce House. Visitors can also go messing around on various boats, including the Spurn Lightship, and then there’s the ice rink, great shopping, theatres and more. Another recommendation is to work your way along the Yorkshire coastline, to sample the spooky drama of Whitby Abbey, the classic seaside attractions of Scarborough, and the beaches at Bridlington and Hornsea. Nature buffs can make for the huge white cliffs of Flamborough Head, home to thousands of nesting seabirds; other options for ornithologists include the North Cave Wetlands, or Spurn Point. For the kids, try Flamingo Land theme park, get out the wellies for a trip to Honeysuckle Farm in Hornsea, or let them Go Ape in the treetops in Dalby Forest. The area is peppered with golf courses and equestrian centres too: for something a bit different, guests can book in for a beginner’s polo lesson at Beverley Polo Club nearby. Other options include sailing, rowing, fishing and boat tours at Hornsea Mere (30 minutes), taking in a footie or rugby match in Hull, or feeling lucky (perhaps) at the horse racing of York and Beverley.
