Whitby Showground

Proximity to Whitby and the beach.

No organisation on site. No signage to disposal facilities. The weather was dreadful for the whole of our 2 night stay. Even if it had not been I think the site is well over priced for limited facilities and no marked pitches. A bit of a free for all.

Location and ease of access to town Centre.
Amazing views.

Wonderful views and proximity to centre, flat pitches, hookups

Hookups that failed in the night although massive thanks to the engineers on site who tirelessly worked to resolve and also helped with with a flat battery. The weather was dreadful with 90mph winds on the cliff top

Was a great view of the sea

Nothing

We were able to camp next to our friends with a tent as not all sites offer this.

No extra charges for awning/gazebos etc.

Stunning location and sea views.

The idea of the weekend had great potential in better weather conditions.

The staff were very friendly given the adverse weather they had to deal with.

Unable to comment on entertainment and bar as was not on due to the bad weather.

The weather was appalling and whilst the organisers are not responsible for this we were told by other campers that attended in previous winds it is always windy which I am not sure this would be enjoyable so doubt we would return next year.

Very boggy site as soggy grass was churned up from the tractors towing on the cars/caravans and motorhomes as they were unable to move on themselves so had to leave after 2 days losing 2 more days as we were unable to refill the water barrel and empty waste.

The view maybe

Although we were warned it could be windy there was an actual storm while we were there. The tents were all snapped and blown away. The rain made the site impassible to the point of having to get towed off by a tractor. The bins and portaloos were all blown over. Totally understand the weather is not the campsites fault and we are certainly not fair weather campers! But in the instance where the ground is impassible and the facilities are damaged/ unusable I feel the event should have been cancelled and money refunded. It was actually a danger to life out there!

Location

The location. Excellent and would highly recommend.

The weather was really bas the first couple of days and the electric kept going off over a 24 hour period. Once fixed though was fine.

Band was really good, toilets kept clean, staff on gate helpful and always available, food stands available we only sampled breakfast but the breakfast sandwiches were lovely. brilliant location with fantastic scenery.

Could be extra bins as these were all full, but may have had something to do with the gale force winds on Saturday which caused tents to blow away/break and filled up bins quite early on Saturday

Was a nice spot

toilets, also burger bar very confusing as it was called 'catch of the day but didn't sell anything from the sea'
