  • Peaceful, secluded pitches at a family-run touring park
  • A two-mile walk from Hornsea and the East Yorkshire coast
  • In rambling country with easy access to the Trans Pennine Trail
Are you after a quiet, secluded and no-frills East Yorkshire spot – with easy access to hikes and the Yorkshire coast as well as some shops and pubs? White Cottage Holiday Park should see you sorted if so, as it's in peaceful and remote countryside just outside the town of Hornsea on the East Yorkshire coast. There's easy access from here to the Trans Pennine Trail, the long-distance path running for 215 miles from coast to coast across the north of England from Southport to Hornsea; plenty more scenic countryside walks, footpaths and trails start from around these parts too if you'd rather strike out on your own. The site is run by a local family who've given it a bit of a spruce up over the past couple of years, installing an updated amenities building with eco-friendly touches like locally sourced timber, lambswool insulation and a ground source heat pump system for the hot water and heating. With the seaside town of Hornsea a mile away, a major supermarket, shops, newsagents, bank and post office are all within walking distance.

What customers say

Immaculately clean, well-kept site with roomy, flat spots. Great showers/toilets, direct access to the Trans Pennine Trail for easy walks/rides to Hornsea. Staff are super friendly. Handy little cafe. Minor gripes: no bins, a bit of road noise. Highly recommend for a chill break.

Powered concrete slab caravan site

Liked Very clean wash facilities with hot showers, spacious pitches and big green areas for children to play on.
You can also get straight on to the transpennine trail at the back of the site so if you have children, dogs or bikes it is a really safe walk in to Hornsea.

Disliked Showers were hot but the water pressure a bit low to wash your hair.
Not a dislike - but a recommendation would be to add a children’s playground.

Powered concrete slab caravan site

Liked New to Caravanning so was a really easy starter site for us nice and flat large pitches , beautifully kept site lovely clean shower/toilet block and a really good coffee/cake shop on site.
To the side near the lake is the trans Pennine cycle trail which was handy as we brought our bikes so was a gentle ride into Hornsea lovely town gorgeous sea front nice cafes and some lovely real ale bars.

Disliked Slightly open and was very windy but looks fairly new , looks to have a lot of trees planted which over time should grow and offer protection on very windy days

Local attractions

Get onto one of the local footpaths or trails from White Cottage Holiday Park, or tackle as much as you dare of the Trans Pennine Trail, which finishes up in Hornsea after its epic run east from Merseyside's Southport. Its mainly traffic-free route is suitable for horse riding and bikes too (and in most cases buggies and wheelchairs) and it was voted the best National Cycle Network in the country in 2015. Also within easy reach is Hornsea Mere, the biggest freshwater lake in Yorkshire and where peeps flock to for birdwatching, rowing, sailing, boat trips and fishing. Set on the remains of a vast wetland, it's a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest and a Special Protection Area for birds, with many species visiting throughout the year. A café and 18-hole putting green are on the mere's shore. White Cottage is 13 miles from Beverley, with rail access to York and Hull for shopping and days out. You could also wander around the many stately homes of the region, such as Burton Constable Hall, Burton Agnes and Rise Hall.
