  • 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.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Lovely site, facilities are excellent. Nice walk along the trans pennine trail into Hornsea. Cafe onsite for teas/coffees and cakes. They even had a pizza van come to the site on the Friday evening. Will definitely be going back.

Disliked: Not a big concern, but there is some traffic noise on an evening/overnight. Alcohol helps!

Powered grass tent campsite

Liked: Lovely little camp site just outside of Hornsea. All the pitches are level and very tidy. We used to have a touring caravan but decided we would use our tent and the tent field was brilliant. Lovely little coffee shop on site, open on the weekends I think and they sometimes have food vendors come on site over the weekends, we had a lovely curry from a local cafe called Eden that was on site, Friday night. Toilet and showers are very clean. You can walk into Hornsea from a path at the back of the site and it’s a lovely 50ish minute walk to the beach but well worth it. Would definitely go back.

Powered grass tent campsite

Liked: Went with my two children. Loved how chilled, quiet and friendly it was. I’d say it’s a medium size site and it was completely full, but so quiet, after 10 there was barely a sound. Pitches nicely spaced apart (at least 6m). Lively little coffee place on site. Will definitely be staying again.

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.
