What customers say
This small, friendly campsite boasts an excellent location near Cayton Bay & local spots. Guests love the welcoming owner, Rebecca, and clean facilities, especially showers. Some note road noise, flies, and occasional shower temp/pressure issues. Pitches can be sloping or close.

Liked Good location, near to the beach, local pub, nearby shop.
Disliked There were a lot of flies - nothing the site could have done but it was unpleasant.
The shower and toilets were mixed sex and basic with the water often being cold.

Really cool site. Cosy without being on top of each other.
Primitive grass and earth tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Warm greeting. Good facilities. Excellent location.
Disliked Tricky to do anything about but the flies were a nightmare. It was like the battle of helms deep in my tent (I was heroic Aragon and flies the urak-hai).
Also the 10am leave by time felt rushed. An extra HR would have been massively helpful.

Just okay.
Primitive grass and earth tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Had a 2 night stay. Fairly convenient location for our needs.
Facilities were ok but toilet roll was in short supply in the mornings - thankfully we had taken our own emergency roll.
Disliked Looking at other reviews we could have just been unlucky, but there was an obvious lack of quiet hours or enforcement of them. One night music was going until at least half one and was still noisy with loud talking until at least half 3.
Tents without ehu were quite closely pitched together.
Appreciate the site can’t do much about it but the amount of flies present was off putting - would recommend taking your own deterrents.

From the manager: Thankyou Ellie for taking the time to Review The Paddock Campsite.I must say that in terms of noise you were indeed unlucky last weekend as usually my site is quiet & campers adhere to quiet time after 10:30/11pm.The individuals creating the noise on Friday were spoken to several times & were subsequently asked to leave next day due to their disturbances.In terms of the non electric pitches these were marked out with posts & a few were in the same group & like to be pitched close together which they can be as they are non electric & this wasnt a problem indeed many campers spoke to me & said what a great ' Vibe' the Site had. Location wise The Paddock Campsite YO11 3NT is ideal for walkers & a very handy 10 min drive to Filey & 15 to Scarb.The Plough Pub & The Bull at Gristhorpe have been favourites amongst campers & glampers this season & many comment of the big portions at The Plough & great food at The Bull so Im very surprised by your comment.Further Cayton Bay beach is walkerble (20mins) & has surf school & Salty Dog Cafe so too is The beautiful Cleveland Way & many swimming pools & towns are extremely accessible drive from site so the location is ideal for many activities.
Excellent site, great location & welcoming host. I’ll book again.
Primitive grass and earth tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Lovely site, very welcoming host who was contactable throughout our stay.
The site is a short walk from a beautiful Sandy beach which does not seem to get overcrowded.
There’s a lovely farm shop next door that does a great cooked breakfast & a pub 5 mins walk down the road which serves huge portions.
The site welcomes you to bring your own fire pit & has toilets, showers & area to wash your dishes.
Disliked Would have been better to have a couple of separate toilets as all toilets had a shower inside so if all taken by people having showers then there’s a wait to use the toilet.
It’s only a small site so not a huge problem.

A very small but lovely campsite. Very clean & host was very welcoming
Primitive grass and earth tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Location wise it was perfect to walk to Cayton Beach - it’s about a 20 minute walk and the beach is so quiet and beautiful
The site itself is very clean, the showers were good and the host was very kind.
We got a taxi into Scarborough and really enjoyed our evening there watching the dolphins.
Disliked A little bit far out if you’re wanting to walk to nice pubs for dinner etc. The Plough is the closest pub but unfortunately this was a bit of a dive. The farm shop next door is nice but this closes at 5pm. Aside from these two, there’s nothing else to walk to locally in the evening.
The campsite is very small and right next to the owners house, we felt a bit exposed as there wasn’t anywhere we could pitch up out the way if that makes sense but it’s perfect for families with kids or young women who want something small and safe. The size of it didn’t bother us in the end as we spent most of the time out but we were surprised when we arrived. This isn’t a deal breaker though, more personal preference

Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Small peaceful site within walking distance of Cayton bay. Really great location to access nearby Filey or Scarborough. The facilities were clean with hot showers and the owners are really friendly. There is the option to hire a firepit and the campsite is close to a farm shop with cafe. Would recommend if you are looking for a small quiet site
