The Paddock Campsite

Ik was blij met: Proximity to the beach. Host was welcoming, approachable & helpful.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Noise from adjacent glamping pods & hot tubs disrupting our pitch well into the early hours. Traffic noise from nearby main road which also disrupted sleep. Inconsistent signage for quiet hours, Pitchup listings say 10:30pm, signage on site says 11:30pm. Site was on a slope. No welcome pack/information. No dedicated car parking.

Ik was blij met: Lovely campsite with some lovely scenery around. 20 mins walk to the beech although I didn't manage to get down to it as I'm still recovering from a broken hip. There is a steep walk down the beech. Scarborough is just up the road and there is a pub 10 mins walk away. Toilets and showers were clean, however there were a lot of flies in there. Hired a fire pit for two nights for £25 including wood, kindling and fire starters which I thought was reasonable for the amount of wood we were given. Rebecca was very helpful and welcoming. They have some lovely pods and bell tents with hot tubs which I would love to try on our next visit. Thank you for having us stay and see you again soon. Vicki

Ik was niet zo blij met: Flies in the loo.

Ik was blij met: A lovely little site, a farm shop and cafe just next door too. The facilities were nice and clean. The beach was a 15/20mins walk which was nice and fairly flat. The path down to the beach was steep tho. Definitely be coming back to stay but will be booking a hook up pitch next time.

Ik was niet zo blij met: There is no electricity points if you don’t book hook up, which I wish I’d known before hand but this was my second time camping so lesson learned. The field is slightly on a slant in some parts so next time I will try and book on a flatter pitch.

Van de manager: Delighted you enjoyed staying with us & would return .We have a limited number of electric pitches & they do tend to sell out fairly quickly .I do however, as a courtesy offer free phone/ device charge & will supply a plug to blow up beds if required. I look forward to welcoming you again next season .kind regards Rebecca

Ik was blij met: Next to farm shop and down the road from pub, convenient for Cleveland Way walking.

Ik was blij met: The showers and toilets were spotless. The local area was lovely to explore.

Ik was niet zo blij met: The campsite is not particularly attractive- it is a small “rough and ready’ piece of grassy land on a bit of a slope next to the farm shop. It got quite crowded. Very loud road nearby that kept us awake at night. When I took a shower the water was cold.

Ik was blij met: Lovely location, close to the beach. And good to be able to have a fire.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Firewood very expensive, so bring your own. Showers cold and feeble.

Van de manager: Thankyou for taking the time to Review my Site.As you state the site is in a lovely location & close to Cayton Bay which is a great beach & only 15 mins walk ! Firewood is expensive to buy as it's kiln dried & used in the main,for my woodfired hot tubs which are in use daily & need to be fired up to heat the tubs I welcome campers to bring their own fire wood as supply does out strip demand .I also suggested at checkin that your party buy wood from local suppliers, The Spa petrol station next doors Farmshop as I wouldn't have enough for your 3night stay x 3 pitches .As regards the showers, I asked all campers to comment on the showers all said tge pressure was good & showers were warm.I did notice however when doing my checks that some children had left two hot water taps running , this may have contributed to a one off cold shower.All our showers are checked routinely & cleaned daily

Ik was blij met: Rebecca is a very welcoming host who even brought us a cup of tea whilst we were pitching up. For us, the location was perfect as there is a farm shop/cafe right next door that has fabulous food (at not ridiculous prices!), a short walk to the bus stop to either Filey or Scarborough, the Fair Collection next door and within a short hop to the circus. The site itself isn't huge which was also a bonus.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Areas of the ground of pebbles and stony (building site grade) which made it difficult to fully pitch up the tent without breaking several pegs etc in the process. We also went on one the of the windiest weeks with the tail end of hurricane Lilly battering the coast line - not that that is the fault of anyone lol. However, the site is fairly exposed overlooking RAF Fylingdales letting the lovely North Yorkshire winds in and out of the cliffs we were camped on top of. Made for an interesting experience.

Ik was blij met: I absolutely love this campsite, it is the first time we have been and we will most certailnly be coming back. It is a small campsite which I like, not too many tents, perfect spacing inbetween. I like the fact that after unloading car with tent etc, you park your car off the field which makes it safer for young children, no headlights in your tent from people coming back late or waking you up too early in the morning, everything about this site is a positive for me. The shower room houses the toilet and wash basin and waste bin, all together instead of being seperate just making getting ready for the day easier, of which there are 4, all kept very clean! Rebecca the owner of the site is lovely and could not have been more accomodating, going above and beyond! This site is a gem of a find!

Ik was niet zo blij met: Nothing
