  • Well-maintained holiday park set around a 12-acre lake
  • A quarter of an hour's drive from Hornsea beach; Hull 30 minutes
  • On-site restaurant; paddleboard, kayak and pedalo hire
There's a lot you can do when you stay somewhere with a lake. Holidays at such a spot can be as peaceful as they come, or you can opt for a break that's all about sports, outdoor activities and messing about on the water. So it's no surprise that both choices are on the cards at Dacre Lakeside Park, a well-maintained site on the edge of the East Riding village of Brandesburton. The pitches here are set around a spectacular 12-acre lake, which, as well as being scenic, is a hub for all sorts of outdoor antics. With kayak, paddleboard and pedalo hire, this spot caters to a whole range of holidaymakers on the hunt for a pleasant park near the Yorkshire coast. Bert's, Dacre Lakeside Park's on-site restaurant and takeaway, is also close by in a scenic location overlooking the water. Other leisure facilities on offer here include tennis courts, pitch and putt miniature golf and foot golf. The reception building has a bar, table tennis, pool tables and a beauty salon too, all of which are a short walk away from a spacious and secure beer garden. Dacre Lakeside Park is a pet-friendly spot, and dogs are welcome to join you on breaks here throughout the season. Guests bringing a four-legged friend won't be short of places to take them for walks, as this site is a 15-minute drive from Hornsea beach and within easy strolling distance of plenty of paths and trails.

What customers say

This well-maintained campground gets high marks for its family-friendly vibe, roomy spots, and lovely lakeside setting. Guests love the many activities, especially watersports, mini-golf, and footgolf, plus the clean facilities and helpful staff. While a few noted occasional bar noise, most found it clean with good staff. Despite wanting more amenities like a shop, the overall feedback is very positive, with many planning return trips.

Liked The break away

Disliked The state others on site left the toilet/showers. Paperwork in toilet block wasn't upto date or the blocks weren't checked?

We all brought our swimsuits & floats & bodyboards but wasn't allowed in lake ??

Katie O.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Location was good
Pitches were large
Dog walking area

Disliked State fishing on-site but if camping it is from a boat launch where you will have to avoid Watersports people and cast far out due to shallows
Very loud! The bar was playing music till nearly 12am
Bathrooms and toilets were filthy and when we went for a shower at different points of the day we never got any hot water.
Inconsiderate people onsite up talking till 2am
If you go and get pitch 21 ask to move it’s right next to the toilets, dog walking gate which is loud and the bar.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Good flat site and location. With good on site activities and play area for the kids.

Disliked At check in I was told where the pitch was and given a list of the site rules. However it is clear that the owners do not want to enforce the site rules. So then change them so people know what they are walking in to if they book to stay here. We booked this as it is advertised as a family site and it was right in the middle of the school holidays. Every night there were very loud drunk groups of adults screaming, shouting and singing at the top of their voices around their tents, way past midnight and into the early hours. But while the bar is adjacent to the tent field and is playing loud music and karaoke until midnight you can understand why campers don’t follow the “quiet time” rules. Also the site needs to decide if fire pits are allowed or not. Their rules say “not” but again lots using them and no one pulling them up for this, so would have liked to have brought ours.

Local attractions

If, after trying all the sporty facilities on site, you still haven't had your fill of outdoor life, you might like to spend a few hours on the greens at Hainsworth Park Golf Club (five minutes' walk), an attractive parkland course where there are 18 holes to play with. A little further afield, you can let the coast at Hornsey (15 minutes) and Bridlington (25 minutes) provide you with bucket and spade days, or head to The Deep (30 minutes), a huge aquarium in the centre of Hull, to find out what's swimming beneath the surface… It takes about an hour to get there, but the spectacular Spurn Heritage Coast – affectionately known as ‘Yorkshire's very own Land's End’ – is also well worth visiting for its birdlife and rugged seascapes. Dacre Lakeside Park is a well-connected place, so you can easily get out on day trips to handsome historic sites like the centre of York (an hour) or Castle Howard (an hour), one of the North's grandest stately homes.
