  • Well-maintained Yorkshire campsite with clifftop views
  • Withernsea five minutes' drive; 20 minutes to Spurn Point
  • Heated shower block; secure site with CCTV
Set in an impressively peaceful spot just a short distance from the Yorkshire coast, Hollym Airfield Caravan and Camping is a laidback site in a scenic clifftop location. With spacious grass pitches and lots of fine views, this family-friendly site – where well-behaved dogs are also welcome to come and join you on your travels – is about a mile and a half from the local town of Withernsea and 40 minutes' drive from Hull. The nearest beach is roughly 10 minutes away on foot, and if you keep heading along the shore (when the tide is out) you'll soon reach the town centre (25 minutes from base), where you can access its handy shops, supermarkets, promenade and leisure centre. Hollym Airfield Caravan and Camping is a family-run business with well-maintained amenities, including a washing-up area, a water refill point, a grey water disposal point, CCTV for extra security and a heated toilet and shower block with disabled facilities. After a day of long exploring, you could light up a barbecue by your pitch, explore the various eateries on offer in Withernsea or tuck into a traditional fish and chips there or in other coastal spots such as Hornsea (35 minutes) or Bridlington (an hour).

What customers say

Great sea views from the cliffs, decent pitches & clean loos. Staff are lekker, it's peaceful and close to the beach/town. A bit windy sometimes, and beach access isn't always easy, but it’s good value and chill. People will be back!

Electric grass pitch

Liked The waterfront view is good

Disliked Very noisy because the camp site is next to the road with 40 mph. I have been forced to wake up by the traffic in the very early morning in my two days stay.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Absolutely loved it here! Excellent pitch size and relaxed atmosphere. Super clean amenities, and a pleasure to actually smell bleach in a loo rather than the alternatives. The showers are the best iv had so far and have camped many years! As warm as you like, powerful and not on push timers like others. I actually felt clean for once! The site has access to its own beach, which is worth every penny of the price. Miles of it to walk down or go for a dip.

Withernsea is within 20 mins walk away, with access to local attractions, bars and eateries. There’s a superb restaurant also called The Willows which is 15 mins walk away or 3 mins in the car, and superb little bar called Golden Sands which is more or less opposite the site and opens from Wednesday onwards. Has a pool table, air hockey and others small games for all.

We stayed here for 5 nights and enjoyed every minute of it. The relaxed vibe, cleanliness and ease to get to places make this one of the best sites iv camped at. I couldn’t recommend it highly enough and I will definitely be going back!

Local attractions

History and heritage abound around here: you're about five minutes' drive from such spots as RAF Holmpton bunker or Withernsea's well-maintained lighthouse museum, where you can learn about the area's mariners and airfarers of yesteryear. There are several more museums to explore in Hull (40 minutes), including Wilberforce House, where you can find out more about abolitionist and MP William Wilberforce, Kingston upon Hull's most celebrated son. Birdwatchers should pack some sturdy footwear, some binoculars and a thermos flask and head to Spurn Point (20 minutes), a spectacular nature reserve that extends for well over a mile into the North Sea. Seabirds also flock to Flamborough Head (an hour), just north of Bridlington, which is well worth visiting if you don't mind the drive. Brought kids who'll need to be kept entertained? Take them for a spin around the animal enclosures at Bugtopia Hornsea Zoo (35 minutes), or alternatively pack plenty of spare change and dispatch them to the arcades in Withernsea and Hornsea.
