  • 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 receives praise for its friendly and helpful staff, stunning countryside views, and convenient location near Scarborough and Filey. Many enjoyed the on-site pool, spa facilities, and the pleasant bar and restaurant, noting the food was good. Pitches are generally considered spacious and well-maintained. However, several reviews highlight concerns regarding the cleanliness and condition of the toilet and shower facilities, with some describing them as dated or needing improvement. A few guests also mentioned issues with sloping pitches and limited availability for the pool.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Site was nicely situated for bud into Scarborough and staff friendly.

Disliked Toilets could do with a good deep clean and decent locks on doors.
Pub and restaurant could be open during day or all week and not closed on Mon and tue especially in peak season. No shop apart from walk to garage, not good if disabled

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Relative proximity to Scarborough and Filey ,nice welcome, beer facilities ,food was very reasonable and nice view over the countryside.

Disliked Sloping pitches and dirty broken tired shower facilities .Advertised as boutique (?!) It's not small, compact or bijou
Not Campsites issue , but busses often late and in our case was full so we waited for 1.5 hrs for another to turn up (Saturday).Could be better to go via Filey to Scarborough
wifi available at the bar not the field

Leanne D.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked Ideal size pitches and plenty of space. Not crammed together.

Pool is a nice idea and especially that it's free... Although you have to wait to get in as maximum capacity is 15 users.

Disliked Toilet & shower facilities were disgusting!! Not even that they were a portakabin set-up, but they were dirty and not maintained!!

Nothing in the facilities to clean them out. Befire & after use. Cleaner came first thing on a morning then around lunch time, but then nothing after.

All the silicone in the portakabins was peeling out, the dirt was literally pushed in to the corners as a pose to being cleaned out.

Static owners weren't overly friendly and miserable to campers.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked Good location in regards to proximity of lots of places to go and activities to do for all family

Disliked Shower/toilet block was very dirty and camp field all on a slope and very exposed to the wind on the hill.
Also the restaurant and bar on site were closed the whole time we were there- seems like more of a weekend venue. Also poop access very very limited.

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.
