What customers say
Great family spot, spacious sites, lovely lake. Plenty to do – watersports, mini-golf, footgolf. Clean facilities, helpful staff. A few mention bar noise, want more facilities, but most loved it and plan to return.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Good site, great size pitches but the camp shower block lets it down
Unpowered grass tent site
Liked We used to have a caravan on Dacre up to 6 years ago. We love how the park has changed over the years. More activities for children is great!
We were camping overnight this time with friends. The field is good now you're allocated a pitch number, with plenty of room per pitch. Its not overcrowded! The toilet block on the camping field is a great addition.
Disliked Having the toilet block on the camping field is a great addition, however at 11.30pm they hadn't been cleaned since 8am. There was no toilet paper, so people had been using the few paper towels that were left as toilet roll and had therefore blocked the toilet. The showers were near useless, you cant call it a shower more like a constant drip, and were freezing. This definitely needs sorting out.

Overall, we'd recommend Dacre Lakeside.

Liked We've been to Dacre Lakeside for the weekend closest to the 11th August, for the past 4 years.
Pitch sizes are great, toilet/shower block is close to the field where you pitch up and gets checked throughout the day.
There is enough space between pitches for the kids to play. There is also activities on site for the family to enjoy.
Staff are friendly and helpful - in particular Craig (site/bar manager) who has always helped when we've had a question or problem. If we've had to raise an issue over the years, staff have always helped and dealt with it quickly - whether that be food or camping related. (Even issues we've had with local takeaways - Craig has helped where possible).
We have seen new improvements made to the site, each year we've been. Whilst we do not have a dog, the site is very dog friendly and they have an enclosed area for the dogs to be able to go off the lead. We've always found families with dogs to be respectful towards those who don't. There are new shower/toilet blocks on site.
Bett's restaurant has a lovely view of the lake. We've had some lovely food there but our favourite has been the pizzas from the pizza truck near the bar.
We've not accessed the lake activities yet but they all look fun and you can see plenty of people enjoy them.
Disliked Over the years, we've found the showers have been temperamental with their heat but it's always been sorted when we've mentioned it.
This year, the site has had a problem with moles, so the ground was not in as good a condition as previous years but we have always been impressed with the ground we have pitched up on in previous years. This wouldn't deter us from returning another year.

Liked Absolutely loved this place. Enjoyed it so much we booked an extra night.
So much to do for all ages. Usually struggle with having kids with such a big age gap. But this place is perfect for kids of all ages. And was really relaxing on a night. Our tent was near the toilet so that was great, toilets and showers were pretty clean too! Reception staff were all amazing. So so friendly and very helpful.
Disliked Nothing at all i disliked about the place. We enjoyed our 3 nights.

Liked The site is brilliant for children, very reasonably priced and I like that you can book just 1 night as many sites are minimum 2.
Disliked They advertise fishing but you cant fish unless you are in a lodge, this was a big let down as thats the reason we booked this site so my son could fish on the lake. They also said all bikes were out of use due to punctures and the brakes not working.

Amazing site, will definitely return
Unpowered grass tent site
Liked Fantastic set up and well maintained (don’t understand the negative reviews on showers/toilets?) - plenty of space (even when full), good range of facilities and of course the lake if you’re a fan of paddle boarding etc. Enclosed area to exercise dogs is a great addition.
Disliked Mention of a no open flames policy but not enforced - would’ve liked to have brought a fire pit if I’d known.

Unpowered grass tent site
Liked Flat camp ground - well maintained, grass cut short. Plenty of open space for families to play games. Toilets were clean - 8 available to campers. Couple of nice bars on site. Short distance to Hornsea. Quiet rule after 11. Also liked that there were no caravans mixed in with the tents!
Disliked Nothing.
