  • Family park a few miles from the beach
  • 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.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (premium)

Liked We really liked the swimming pool & slide facilities , the crafts area was amazing 🤩 my granddaughter really enjoyed painting a piece of pottery . That kept her entertained for a couple of hours.
Restaurant was a bit pricey , but very enjoyable.
Seating area inside & out was very inviting.
Play ground area kept the kids entertaining for ages , with lots to do .
Our pitch was large enough for the motorhome, and awning. Liked how the hedges separated each pitch .
Evening entertainment in the club was enjoyable.
Beach was a stones throw away 👍along the top of the cliffs , but had to be careful getting onto the beach . No disabled access.

Disliked sadly 😧we were unable to put the annex on as the waste grate was towards the back of the pitch in the middle , which would have resulted in the annex covering the grate . We had to ask for maintenance to unblock the grate about 4 days into our holiday.
So good job we couldn’t put the annex up anyway.
Toilet block was very old & really is in need of refurbishing ( not on touring field) so had to walk 300 yards.
Needless to say we all showered in the disabled toilet , which was a little better but was in need of t l c !
don’t think it was cleaned every day .
Not too keen on the bingo situation . ( all other park holiday sites involved) . Too like going to gala bingo . Fishing pond not big enough and not a lot of parking.there was other ponds but not to fish , which was a shame and nearer to touring pitch .

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked First time visiting and the signposts showed us where we needed to be, we hadn’t checked in straight away but the lady at reception rang to say to just come the following day, I felt this was a nice touch. The pitch was clean (apart from a few cigarette butts) the pitches are spacious enough (we didnt put our awning up, but many others did) About a 7 minute walk down to the beach and a 4 minute walk to the swimming and entertainment complex, we didn’t go to the entertainment but the park was lovely and clean and the lady in the shop was really helpful and kind.

Disliked We struggled (as did many others) to find the toilet block on arrival, once found. We didn’t find the unisex block until the second day. This was much more pleasant for my daughter who is scared of spiders as the ladies had a lot of spiders, we came to understand from the welcome pack that spiders and insects were an issue on the site, they did give some tips on how to manage the insects for example the site emptying the big waste bins. By Monday these bins still hadn’t been emptied and were overflowing (it was a bank holiday so maybe that was the issue)
Not the sites fault but we went to the beach on an evening and it was littered with alcohol bottles and rubbish which was sad to see. Again not the sites problem but there was a strong smell of cannabis frequently on the site. I’m not sure if they have a cut of time for music etc but the music from the entertainment complex was loud and heard from the touring pitches until around 11:30pm

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Good sized hardstanding pitch. Entertainment facilities were ok.

Disliked The main downside was the shower facilities during our stay. From arrival Monday until Thursday, the main shower block only provided cold water. This was reported to reception on Tuesday morning. We also tried the pool shower facilities, which had signage up and were experiencing similar issues.

By Wednesday late afternoon the problem was still ongoing, so it had to be reported again on Thursday. We were informed maintenance had attended earlier in the week and changed a gas bottle, but the issue had been assumed resolved. After the second report the showers were finally working properly, allowing hot showers on Thursday evening leaving only 1 day with decent shower.

Appreciate that faults can happen but more should have done sooner, as shower facilities were included as part of the booking, it did impact the majority of our stay. When complaint given to site via email management were dismissive.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (ensuite)

Liked The site was clean very clean

Disliked Beach was a mess bottles metal bars sticking out of the sand tubs and just a joke to be honest.

Had a tap on the sink next to the caravan was making noise all the time reported it but was never done so had no sleep for 3 nights.

Pitches was way out of level to one side.

Food very expensive.

Will not be going back there even if it was free.

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.
