  • Play area, games room and indoor pool; restaurant and bar; launderette
Whether you’re after a hiking holiday, a spot of birdwatching or bracing good times at the seaside, coastal North Yorkshire always delivers. And at Spring Willows Caravan Park, you’re well placed for all these activities – and more besides. This family- and dog-friendly site sits close to the junction of the A64, which takes you straight into Scarborough (20 minutes’ drive), and the A1039, which you can follow all the way to Filey (15 minutes). From there, you can choose to spend a day at sandy, expansive Filey Beach, or head to Filey Brigg, a narrow, ragged promontory where there are reliable sightings of migratory and breeding birds. So that’s the beaches and birdwatching taken care of. As for the hiking, Filey Brigg marks the end (or the start) of the Yorkshire Wolds Way, a long-distance route crossing spectacular valleys, woodland and chalk hills. On site, grass pitches come with splendid views of the surrounding fields, and facilities include an indoor pool, a gym, a games room and a fenced-off children’s play area with climbing structures. If you’re into experimenting with your G&Ts, the S Club Bar and Restaurant has a pretty decent selection of gins. (How decent? Well, you might find it hard to work your way through the entire menu during your stay here…) If you fancy sipping your drink under a canopy of stars, the outdoor seating area has heat lamps and warm throws. A modern and pristine toilet block with hot-water showers (plus facilities for disabled guests), a washing-up area and a launderette complete the picture.

What customers say

This campsite is praised for its fantastic location, stunning countryside views, and welcoming, friendly staff. Visitors particularly enjoyed the on-site swimming pool, hot tub, and bar area with good food. Pitches are generally spacious. However, some guests experienced issues with sloping pitches and found the toilet and shower facilities to be dated, dirty, or in need of an upgrade. The play park was also noted as being worn.

Hannah C.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Family friendly
Not too big
Good food at the bar
Good views
Park

Disliked Shared toilet/shower portaloo block for camping was disgraceful, doors didn’t shut properly and had a bit of wood on the back to stop it from opening (partner did walk in on someone)
No squeejee or mop to clean floor after shower so it’s muddy from people coming and going
Shower and toilets need to be separate, wet room doesn’t work in such a small space
Pool booking system - booked a private slot and a family came in half way through our swim - someone needs to man the pool as people are coming and going once they know the code regardless if they have a slot booked or not

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Very peaceful and relaxing site, beautiful scenery all around and fantastic woodland walk for the dog.
The swimming pool was warm and we made use of the hot tub which was a great addition, and a well-planned timetable meant it was not overly busy.
Would have enjoyed spending more time in the sauna and gym area if we had stayed a little longer.
The bar area was modern and inviting and the games room is fantastic for the children.
Facilities were clean and showers were warm, providing all your needs whilst camping.
Staff were friendly and helpful and the campsite was not too noisy which added to the relaxing atmosphere.

Disliked The only issue we encountered was access to reception for check-in as a new guest. Beside this we had a lovely stay.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked Secure location with gates

Disliked I was given a pitch that was on a slope and the ground was hard and unable to take a tent peg. Check-in stated 1-9pm, however arrived at 4:30pm and was told it reception was closing. Did not end up staying at the campsite as was unsure of where else to move my tent as reception was closed.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked Absolutely loved our stay here and we will definitely return . Perfect location, the owners were so welcoming and all the staff were very helpful. The onsite bar has a lovely atmosphere with excellent food and very accommodating for myself as I’m dairy and gluten intolerant . We really loved our holiday here.

Disliked The only negative is that the shower and toilet block for campers needs a bit of an upgrade.

Local attractions

Build a day out around the kids by taking them to Playdale Farm Park (10 minutes’ drive), where they can feed alpacas, handle guinea pigs or have a go at ziplining. Then head to the North Yorkshire Water Park (15 minutes), for climbing, bouncing and sliding on the inflatable adventure course. With its chequered floor and elegant colonnade framing views of the sea, the Sun Court at the Scarborough Spa (20 minutes) is a great spot for a drink, maybe accompanied by music from a live orchestra. A stroll along South Bay Beach takes you to a pretty marina lined with restaurants and the Luna Park theme park. A chalk outcrop jutting into the North Sea, Flamborough Outer Headlands Nature Reserve (half an hour) is a popular spot for birdwatching. The coastline around here is pretty spectacular, with tall cliffs and rock formations like the Drinking Dinosaur, where seals come for a rest.
