  • Quiet site on the north-east coast between Filey and Scarborough
  • A 15-minute walk from Cayton Bay beach via a traffic-free path
  • Farm shop and café next door; pub 10 minutes' walk away
Some visitors wax lyrical about North Yorkshire’s coastline, while others are rather fonder of its countryside… so it’s handy indeed that you can easily check out both aspects of the county’s scenery during a stay at The Paddock Campsite. This quiet, friendly site is just outside the village of Lebberston, on the coast between Filey and Scarborough (both of which are within a 10-minute drive). For your seaside strolls, a traffic-free path runs down to the sands of Cayton Bay beach – it’ll take you about 15 minutes to get down to the beach, a wide bay that welcomes dogs all year round and is popular with birdwatchers, fossil hunters and rockpoolers as well as those seeking coastal walks or days spent on the sand. And for your country ambles, a drive of 15 minutes or so gets you up to the outer edges of the North York Moors National Park – although you can get a decent enough taste of the local scenery with the rural views around the park itself if you're not in the mood to travel far. Handy bonuses for guests at this site are a farm shop and café pretty much next door, and a pub about 10 minutes’ walk away. Barbecues and campfires are permitted on site if you fancy using some of that farm shop produce for alfresco cookery. Firepits are available on site to help with outdoor food prep and keeping warm; other facilities on site include three hot showers, three toilets, a clean water tap and chemical waste disposal facilities.

What customers say

This small, friendly campsite boasts a fantastic location, a short walk from Cayton Bay beach, with many visitors praising the helpful and welcoming owner, Rebecca. Facilities, including toilets and showers, are generally reported as clean and well-maintained, though some reviews mention them being basic or needing an upgrade. Road noise is a recurring theme, and the presence of flies, particularly during warmer months, has been noted. The site is appreciated for its peaceful atmosphere, though some found pitches to be on a slope.

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Small, rural site, spacious pitches, clean & well stocked facilities. We had a great few days here, Rebecca (the site owner) was so attentive and nothing was too big an ask. Being a rural area the ground is uneven but our pitch was great and everything we needed, with plenty of space for French cricket which is a given on our camping trips. We had the added bonus on our last night where one of the local chickens joined our party and spent a good while on one of our camping chairs! We were dubious having read lots of reviews...everyone has their own experience and i respect that, but all I can say is we had the best time and thanks to Rebecca for being such an attentive host ❤️

Disliked There were flies around, but camping we had no bother sitting out for hours day and night, we were genuinely rarely bothered by them.

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Great location and friendly site. Nice location close to the beach, with good facilities. It’s a friendly, family-run site. A lovely place to stay, although the number of flies during our visit was a real downside.

Disliked Flies, lots of them. I realise this is largely out of the owner’s control, which is a shame because otherwise the site is great. Unfortunately, there were just so many flies that it became difficult to enjoy our stay. I’ve never experienced anything quite like it — the sheer number of them was unreal. Such a shame, as the site itself is otherwise excellent.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Beautiful area, clean facilities, lovely owner and overall a beautiful stay. We had one of their chickens with us for nearly our whole stay, very wholesome. It can be a bit bad for flies but nothing but a can of fly spray can’t solve, overall a beautiful stay! And will be coming back again next year!

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Lovely little campsite, basic but providing everything we needed. We were allowed to chose our pitch, which was much appreciated as our trailer tent requires a level pitch. The host was very accommodating and friendly.
We will be back.

Disliked Being surrounded by fields, we did experience some rural smell due to fertiliser spraying, which attracted lots of flies, but this is obviously not in the power of the campsite owner and is not a permanent issue.

Local attractions

This is a most handy spot for getting out to a couple of North Yorkshire’s most loved seaside towns, so plan for days at the beach and animal park in Filey or taking in the castle, Sea Life Centre and Alpamare waterpark in Scarborough (before hitting the beach again, of course). Both are around a 10-minute drive away. For another view on the coast, grab your binoculars and wander quietly to see what’s in residence at RSPB Bempton Cliffs seabird centre (20 minutes’ drive). Or for some days away from the shoreline, head out to meet the creatures at Playdale Farm Park (10 minutes), sample Yorkshire’s first single malt at Spirit of Yorkshire Distillery (15 minutes) or try out the inflatable course and all manner of watersports at North Yorkshire Water Park (20 minutes). Fancy leaving the car behind for the day? Stash the keys somewhere safe and set forth on foot for Cayton Bay beach, Scarborough Fair Collection & Vintage Transport Museum or a dip at Flower of May swimming pool – all are about 15 minutes away on foot.
