Lovely view

  • Simple and scenic rural site a mile from the Yorkshire coast
  • A mile from Hayburn Wyke waterfall; Scarborough 15 minutes' drive
  • A few minutes' walk from the Cinder Track path and a pub
Few things in this world can compare to flitting around the Yorkshire coast. Toing and froing between Scarborough's seaside scenes to Whitby's clifftop abbey is best done by bike along the Cinder Track, an old railway that runs through the green surrounds of the North York Moors National Park along easy flat terrain. And when it comes to finding somewhere to rest your head after all that pedalling? The Hulleys Campsite could well be the answer. This simple and scenic rural site is set a few minutes' walk from that traffic-free bike trail and 10 minutes from a local pub. On top of that, The Hulleys Campsite is within easy strolling distance of the coast (roughly a mile from base), where the splendid Hayburn Wyke waterfall makes a very pretty backdrop for picnics, walks and general seaside frolicking. It's a five-minute drive from these spacious pitches into the village of Cloughton, where a couple more pubs and a farm shop are on hand to keep you fed and watered during your stay. For supermarkets and a wider range of restaurants, steer yourself towards Scarborough (15 minutes). The Hulleys Campsite prides itself on keeping camping here simple. The facilities reflect that, with low-key but functional toilets and showers. Dogs, barbecues, commercial vehicles and student groups are all welcome.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Very quiet, nice and tidy pitches

Disliked: There is only one spot with the sea in the background. The rest are trees. Also, mowing the lawn at 9am on a Saturday while I was still trying to sleep.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Self checkin and pick your own pitch. Accessability. Secure. Lots of helpful signage! Great view of Scarbough down the coast. Oportunity to see the stars on cloudless nights.

Disliked: Shower facility needs an upgrade! Only 1 shower for the whole field. Shower curtain too long. Water pressure not strong enough. No hand soap in the gents.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Liked the flat smooth pitches, open space and plenty of benches. The showers and toilet facilites were clean, outside charging point was brilliant feature.great spot for getting around the east coast. The lack of light pollution really did give you that camping under the stars and very quiet. Close to friendly pubs which served great local produce at competitive prices. All in a great spot to camp, friendly and clean.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Beautiful location, pitches and main camping field were clean and tidy, the pitches were nicely spaced and there was plenty of additional space for kids to run around for a bit.

Disliked: Nothing major, the toilets/showers were a bit basic and not the cleanest but could have been worse.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Was quiet when we went, had a view of the sunset and pitch was easy to find. Good location for where we wanted to visit. Handy phone charging and washing up area. Generally clean pitches, just the odd bit of litter and bins not emptied. Toilets worked well.

Disliked: Bins overflowed, no recycling facilities, no soap or loo roll in men's loo, the shower in women's side didn't work well. General lack of presence of any staff if there had been noise from groups or to ask about the issues with the facilities. We were lucky that there were mostly quiet couples staying.

Local attractions

Planning a trip to Scarborough is easy, as Britain's first ever seaside resort is a mere 15-minute drive to the south. Donkey rides, Victorian buildings like the Spa, sticks of rock and amusement arcades are all available here, as are two sweeping sandy beaches, the Asian-inspired landscapes of Peasholm Park and Oliver's Mount, a large wooded hill 500 metres above the town with a well-stocked fishing lake and fantastic far-reaching vistas. Whitby (half an hour) is the other must-see town in the area, but this part of Yorkshire is peppered with other sights too – there’s Flamborough Headland Heritage Coast (40 minutes) with its nesting birds and beaches, Sewerby Hall and Gardens (45 minutes) for tours round a historic country pile, Flamingo Land Resort (50 minutes) for adrenaline and excitement… Want to focus on the North York Moors National Park? Ride out on mountain bikes through Dalby Forest (35 minutes), step among the scenic stones of Rievaulx Abbey (an hour and 10 minutes) or get down to the village of Goathland (30 minutes) to see the Mallyan Spout waterfall and a train station that featured in the Harry Potter films.
