Riverside Caravan Park

Liked A wonderful peaceful location. This site was just what we wanted, peace, calm and plenty of space for the kids to explore and make friends. Its not a huge site so even st capacity didnt feel crowded.

Located alongside the River Derwent you could access the river and paddle easily. (Its very shallow).

The pitches were flat and of a great size. There's two fields but no pitch is too far from facilities.

Lizzie met us on arrival and was very welcoming and accomodating throughout out our stay.

There is only one sink for dishes but I never queued even when the site was full.

The toilets and showers were clean. There are 3 showers, great power and temperature.

In a fabulous location for visiting Scarborough and Filey.

Great Fish and Chips locally.

To address some of the previous reviews they have clearly taken these on board over the lsst couple of years as I didnt find any of the negative comments to be accurate.

Disliked Honestly cant say I disliked anything.

Liked The people there are lovely,met some lovely people. Lovely views all round,
plenty of space if you have kids for them to play safely in the middle

Disliked shower room could do with mats on the floor , those that let the water run through them as you just get wet after one.

Liked Big pitch

Disliked Ball games were being played where we were pitched up. Numerous times a ball was hit off our caravan and car. Dogs not on leads and running around the field playing fetch and running and pooping all over. Such a shame

Liked Large grass areas with electric hook up at each pitch. Lovely & quiet in a secluded area, garage within walking distance for anything forgotten! Ponies, donkeys & goats were also welcoming! Open area so kids can play. Play park in village.
River running around site, nice local walks & can get bus or taxi into Scarborough.

Disliked Maintenance required on toilet door locks. Site is clearly still being worked on.
Grass had recently been cut but not collected, so a bit messy.

Liked Lovely quiet site of which we stopped for three nights. Flat pitches and facilities were good, three showers and three toilets all of which were clean and plenty of room.
Showers were hot and no extra price for using them. Looks like site had been updated since previous reviews hence we found everything good. We tried site even after reading reviews and we were glad we didn’t get put off. Overall a lovely stay.

Disliked Not really a dislike but would have been nice if pitches were marked out so that if it did get busy no one be encroaching on your space. Maybe hot water tap would be useful for washing pots.

Liked Location near a small town with lovely pubs and a restaurant. Nice little site next to a river. Peaceful and quiet. Clean toilets.
Would return.

Disliked A bit cramped the first night as it was really busy and hard to find a pitch as one wasn’t allocated.
The shower block was cold so didn’t use the showers but the shower cubicles were modern and clean.
Could do with a small bridge over the Ford for walkers.

Liked Very quiet site. No traffic noise. Spacious pitches. Nice surroundings, streams running along each side of the site. Although some reviews said about the toilet/shower facilities being very basic, we found them to always be clean.
Easy walking distance to the village.

Disliked Limited rubbish disposal
Waste water disposal
No hand drying facilities in toilets

Liked Peaceful and quiet rural campsite. No fixed pitches but plenty of room. It's a grass area so try not to drive like Lewis Hamilton and you won't get stuck. There's 2 showers and 2 toilets, we stayed at Easter and the site was reasonably busy but never had a problem using the facilities. It's simple and basic but has electric, water and waste disposal. A great base to stay if your exploring the coastline

Disliked You have to cross a shallow ford as you enter the site, not a problem in the car but I'm not sure you could walk to the pub without waterproof footwear.
If it's important to you the washing up facility isn't great. There's no hot water.
To be fair, the site is a bit of a work in progress. You can see the owners are making improvements
