  • 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.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: On-site facilities are well presented, modern and always clean, with the bonus of an excellent coffee shop within an old railway goods carriage. There's plenty of open space for the kids to play and with it being secluded, it's also safe. There's access to the Trans Pennine Trail at the back of the site which with a brisk walk puts you into Hornsea within 15-20 minutes. Check-in was effortless, and we were able to extend our stay with a late check-out, which just takes the stress out of packing up the awning!

Thank you to Katie and all her team for another excellent stay, we will be back again next year...

Disliked: Nothing...

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Well spaced out site, plenty of room on pitch which was almost level. Site tidy and well maintained. Toilets and showers clean during our stay, we stayed Saturday and Sunday night. Great for walks to Hornsea

Disliked: We had no personal contact with reception, and we didn't receive a site map so if we were new to this site you wouldn't know where things were, could have been emailed with booking confirmation.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Lovely quiet campsite within walking distance to hornsea from campsite
The site/ showers and toilet are one of the cleanest we've camped at .

Disliked: Only thing we would complain about was powered going off the first night at about 9 n was off till 4 in the morning leaving us all very cold and then the second night it went off again for an hour
The electric power boxes have too many extensions using them and people using too many appliances a once so the power was consistently tripping all weekend

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.
