  • Peaceful, dog-friendly site five minutes' drive from the beach
  • A 10-minute drive to Hornsea and 15 minutes to Bridlington
  • Just 10 minutes' stroll from a village shop and dog-friendly pub
Nothing like a bit of sea breeze to revitalise all your senses, eh? And there's plenty of that to be had around Samara Caravan Park, in the peaceful town of Skipsea. This East Yorkshire site is a short jaunt from several seaside towns: you can drive five minutes to the nearest beach (or follow the sound of lapping waves on foot) or get out to bigger towns like Hornsea (10 minutes' drive) and Bridlington (15 minutes). Meanwhile, the heritage grounds of Flamborough are 25 minutes away, where you can catch auks and gannets diving from chalky cliffs. A good antidote to hectic everyday life, this relaxed site is set up with facilities like toilets, showers and water points to top up your bottles or for your pots and pans, as well as a chemical disposal point. There are plenty of friendly faces on this family-run site, ready to point you in the direction of countryside jaunts, old ruins, and the best surf. Dogs are welcome at this site, so make sure you save a space for your furry friend. It’s a 10-minute stroll to the village shop and a dog-friendly pub, or a five-minute drive to a Yorkshire ice cream parlour (bubble gum ice cream, anyone?). Don't fancy cooking? Please note that fires and disposable barbecues are not permitted. Please note that pets must be kept on a lead as the site has free-range chickens.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: The pitches were very neat and tidy very well looked after. On arrival were greeted and shown to our pitch.

Disliked: The toilets and shower werethe main problem as there was only one female toilet and one shower. There isn't a very good mobile signal so unable to use phone on site(not to much of a problem for us).

Liked: The exit.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: As you stated you were going to leave me a bad review due to not being given a refund for the last 2 nights of your stay. If you wanted a site that was directly in a town or village i would recommend to read the description on pitchup before you book another site in future, as ours does state we are a rural area but you can walk to the pub, shop and cliff tops etc. We can't please everyone! but we try our best!

Beautiful site, clean and tidy , everyone is super friendly…

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Nice little site, well maintained and clean small toliet block with shower but enough. we only stayed for one night it was lovely, reasonable priced to, and close enough to drive into Bridlington for the day

Disliked: My only dislike was no where for the kids to play no bit of grass or field etc and was a little worried about them playing where they was as close to cars and caravans etc but nothing major as we was only there for the night.

Non-electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked: Great site - Well looked after facilities & pitch sizes - Owner greeted us & showed us to our spot. We are a roof tent & Awning, so plenty of space was available . Quite mostly caravan & van site, close to the coast or for a walk to the pub in Skipsea, or a little further for Mr Moos for ice cream ! Perfect

Disliked: Some road noise - But we are a tent .. so to be expected! But it’s no drama, when ya up early any way! Not much for little-ies, ours are teens.. But little to no phone signal meant they had to put down the tech!! Which was great 😊 (not sure if that was WiFi but didn’t want it!)

Local attractions

Being just two miles from Fraisthorpe Beach (10 minutes’ drive), it wouldn’t be a holiday without time spent digging moats on the sandy beach, examining rock pools, or chasing the pup into the surf (it’s dog-friendly too) Further afield, more coves can be found at the chalk cliffs of Flamborough Headland Heritage Coast (30 minutes). The expanses of East Yorkshire countryside are right on your doorstep too. Pull on your wellies and prepare to hurdle the country stiles – and while you’re roaming, check out the earthwork left in the wake of the ruins of Skipsea Castle (two minutes), which used to be an old Norman motte-and-bailey fortress. You won’t be short of activities for the whole family in this area either. Perhaps prepare a picnic to enjoy on the grounds of the family-run working farm at Honeysuckle Farm (10 minutes). Then, pop by Mr Moo’s Ice Cream Parlour (two minutes) for some real mouth-watering Yorkshire dairy ice cream – orange marmalade, ticklee toffee, and blackberry slammer are just some of their out-of-the-box flavours. Less of a sweet tooth? Dig into a heartier meal in the beachfront pubs of Bridlington and Hornsea (each within a 15-minute drive) or venture into markets of Beverley (30 minutes).
