  • Family-focused holiday park in a scenic countryside setting
  • On-site fishing lake and loads of activities to entertain the kids
  • Close to plenty to do on the East and North Yorkshire coasts
Skip to see – and stay at – this holiday park on the sandy East Yorkshire coast: it's likely you’ll love it. Skipsea Sands Holiday Park is in a scenic countryside and village setting near Driffield, but is only a couple of miles from the stretch of Yorkshire coastline between Flamborough Head to Spurn Point – with Bridlington in between – and within easy driving distance of several sandy beaches. It has its own fishing lake and lots of activities and entertainment to float any individual boat. Guests can be occupied day and night should they so wish: kids can work off energy at the adventure playground, chase a shuttlecock/football or rollerblade around the massive sports hall, before cooling off at the waterjets of the indoor pool, or going along to one of the many organised activities for all ages such as dance, football, water games and a club for the under-fives. There’s a small charge to use the sports hall and for a couple of other activities like ten-pin bowling and the intriguingly named aqua jets, but all other activities are free. Elsewhere on site, bigger guests have access to the well-equipped park gym, while all ages can pile into the Pavilion family clubhouse for drinks and snacks; there are two other bars on site, as well as The Sands diner with restaurant and takeaway. Evenings are properly covered with a range of glitzy entertainment from live music to family shows. Prefer to breeze gently through your hols rather than get involved in too much activity? A Jacuzzi, sauna and steam room are on site to bubble placidly at too, all included in your pitch fee.

What customers say

Skipsea Sands het gemengde resensies. Sommige gaste prys die ruim staanplekke, vriendelike personeel en goeie fasiliteite, veral vir gesinne. Maar ander meld probleme met die netheid van ablusieblokke, hoë kos-/drankpryse, swak sein en geen direkte strandtoegang nie.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The welcome we got from Skipsea Sands Parkdean employees was great, very friendly and informative.

Disliked The toilet and shower facilities. The toilet cubicle locks were broken, and only 1 cubicle (out of 4 available in the block nearest our pitch) had toilet roll, not topped up over the weekend. The cleaner eventually brought 1 roll when asked, then had to be told more cubicles needed toilet roll. She had already cleaned the block so should have noticed the lack of toilet rolls. The showers were cold. Only 1 hook in each of the 3 shower cubicles. We had to throw our towels and clean clothes over the door otherwise they would have got wet and dirty on the floor. Access to the beach was dangerous and precarious down a cliff. This spoilt my experience as I have arthritis in my knees and had to scooch down on my bottom.
Quiet time was 11.30pm until 7am. This is very late. It should be brought forward to 10pm or 10.30pm. Other campers were very loud and children shouting and running around until very late. Kicking footballs into our tent and lost control of an electric scooter and drove into our new windbreak and knocked it down.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked The staff were very helpful and friendly. Sadly the wrong site for us and we left before staying the night

Disliked It was very busy with cars driving around everywhere which meant the young children weren’t safe running around. Teenagers on bikes zooming everywhere not looking. Loud music playing at a lot of sites and adults drunk at 3pm meant we left before staying our first night

Recommend to friends Visit again

Great stay and would definitely go there again

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked A good place to stay for reasonable pitch fee's in a remote area.
If you have children there are plenty of amenities on site for them.

Disliked I was not happy with the amount of times the electric went of. We would wake up with no electric on.
We would then contact the office about the electric been of and it felt like we was at fault for the electric been of remembering we had just awoke.
They would say things like are you charging electric scooters or something like that, I would have to remind them we have just awoke. Apparently the electric would go of in blocks of about 4. It was a lot easier when your own pitch went of not a block of pitches. The fish and chippy on site do not know how to do the batter on fish, Batter virtually none existent.

Local attractions

The East and North Yorkshire coast is most visitors’ first stop, from the gannets gabbing at Flamborough Head and Bempton Cliffs to the seaside shenanigans and surfing of Scarborough. If it’s raining, take the kids to Terror Tower: its three floors’ worthy of grisly special effects should silence even the most horrifying sprog. Flit to fab Filey for five miles of beach, its funfair and the start of the Cleveland Way, and nearby Bridlington for the Bird of Prey and Animal Park and Bondville Model Village. Further along the coast, Goths and others love lovely Whitby; have fish and chips at the Magpie café after an afternoon seeing Whitby Abbey and the replica of HMS Endeavour. Inland yields loads to do too, with the North York Moors and Yorkshire Dales National Park both within driving distance; as it’s Yorkshire, you’ll find stately pads, historic houses and museums of all bents easily accessible too. A good option for a city day trip is lovely York, about an hour’s drive away.
