We are really pleased to hear you would definitely recommend Crows Nest and found the facilities great during your stay.

It is lovely to know the showers and toilets were really clean, and that all the staff were friendly too.

Thank you again, and we hope to welcome you back soon.

喜欢 Great location and lovely view from campsite!

不喜欢 Unfortunately let down by poorly kept facilities with the toilets, family washrooms and pot wash being filthy every visit. Appreciate this is due to disrespectful visitors (wet tissue thrown at toilet doors and litter) but we didn’t see any cleaners or anyone patrolling the site during our visit.

We are pleased to hear you enjoyed the location and views from the campsite.

We are sorry to hear the facilities were not as you would have liked during your stay. The toilets, family washrooms and pot wash areas are cleaned a minimum of 4 times per day, but this week they have been particularly difficult to keep on top of due to the way some guests have used them.

We have had issues with intentional flooding, toilet roll being thrown around and stuck to walls, water balloon fights and general misuse of the facilities. This is sadly not a lack of cleaning, but a lack of respect and parental supervision from a small number of guests.

We do appreciate that it is unpleasant when facilities are left this way between cleans, but our team are working hard to keep them in order during one of the busiest periods of the year.

Thank you for your feedback.

喜欢 Lovely site with all the amenities we could need (although we are very low maintenance and usually suffice with a field and cold running water). Check in very quick and easy.

Family and dog friendly place to stay. It was busy given it was the summer holidays but not overly so, it didn’t feel cramped and noise levels were not excessive. Single sex groups are not allowed, presumably to discourage stag and hen do type groups, but as two mums with four girls we didn’t have a problem. There is a curfew of about 10pm when quiet is expected and whilst you could hear a few people chatting quietly it was not disruptive for sleeping at all.

Gorgeous views from the upper camping field and gate to coastal path to Cayton Bay and Filey, it is steep though as it’s a cliff. Worth noting that the beach directly below is not sandy but only a mile walk to Cayton Bay or quick drive to plenty of other lovely, sandy beaches. Can also be very windy though as it’s quite exposed. Plenty of less exposed pitches though if that worries you. There was a much quieter camping field lower down away from the cliff top which I suspect would have been less windy.

Pitches are not individually designated so you decide yourself where you want to pitch up when you arrive. Not a lot of flat ground available most is slightly angled due to the nature of the site, but not excessively so. We were very happy with our pitch. You are allowed one car on your pitch included in the price but can pay a small amount extra for an extra car too.

Hot running water a luxury for us (whilst camping) and nice clean toilets and showers. Although a little maintenance needed here and there. Washing up facilities with hot and cold running water available by the toilet block and drinking water points dotted around for filling bottles from etc.

The kids loved the pool even though it is quite small and they are quite big. We loved being able to send them on their own and having some peace and quiet to ourselves. (Can do this from aged 8 if you’re comfortable with that) Decent play park too although ours preferred to be in the pool so didn’t spend much time in it.

WiFi and reception levels perfectly adequate for most people’s needs I should think too although we only used phones for the occasional phone calls and texts and googling what the little island was we could see.

There is a little shop on site too with plenty of essentials in terms of food and camping equipment and a chippy, although we didn’t use that so can’t comment.

Overall we really enjoyed our stay here and would come back.

不喜欢 Generally speaking, the amenities were good and plentiful, although a little maintenance wouldn't go amiss.

The small toilet by the pool was clean and perfectly usable, but the fittings were showing some signs of rust and the lock was quite rusty. The taps were also running continuously and wouldn't switch off.

The main camping toilet block was nice and clean, with plenty of toilets and showers, but again a couple of the taps wouldn't turn off. There was also a leak or overflow somewhere, with water coming out from underneath one of the sink units and spreading across the floor. It wasn't a huge issue during our stay and certainly wouldn't put us off returning, but it's something that could easily be addressed.

The showers were free and had good water pressure, but the temperature fluctuated and they only stayed on for quite a short burst before needing to be pressed again.

We are really pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay and found Crows Nest clean, friendly and well located, with great views and plenty of facilities. It is lovely to know check in was quick and easy, the site felt family and dog friendly, and that you would come back.

We are glad the non designated camping worked well for you, and that you enjoyed the upper field views and coastal paths. As you mention, the cliff top can be windy and the ground is naturally slightly angled in places, but many guests enjoy being able to choose their own pitch.

We appreciate your comments regarding maintenance in the toilet and shower areas. The facilities are cleaned regularly and checked throughout the day, but we will take a look at the taps, fittings and any possible leaks you have mentioned.

It is also great to hear the children enjoyed the pool and play park, and that the shop, chippy, washing up areas, drinking water points and WiFi all added to your stay.

Thank you again for your balanced feedback and for recommending us. We hope to welcome you back to Crows Nest again soon.

喜欢 We loved the facilities that were available. The atmosphere was fantastic. Definitely coming back soon

喜欢 We had a fantastic stay at the campsite and overall, everything was amazing. The facilities were great, and it was particularly well suited to families with children. There was plenty to keep the kids entertained, and we really enjoyed our time here. The campsite itself had a lovely atmosphere, and we would definitely consider returning.

不喜欢 Unfortunately, the toilets were a real let-down and didn’t match the standard of the rest of the campsite. The floors were often extremely dirty and covered in water and mud, particularly in the family toilet areas. There didn’t appear to be any tools available for campers to wipe up water themselves, such as floor brushes or squeegees. I appreciate that some of the mess is caused by a lack of consideration from certain campers, but having cleaning tools available would make it much easier for people to leave the facilities clean for the next person. During busy periods, I also feel that the toilets would benefit from more frequent cleaning sessions. With improved cleaning and a few simple measures to help campers keep the floors tidy, the facilities would be much better.

We are sorry to hear the toilets did not meet expectations during your stay. The facilities are cleaned regularly throughout the day, but during very busy periods they can deteriorate quickly between cleans, particularly when guests walk in with wet or muddy footwear or do not leave the areas as they found them.

We understand the suggestion about leaving cleaning tools out for guests to use, but unfortunately items such as brushes and squeegees have been stolen or damaged in the past and, in reality, they would not last a day during peak season.

We appreciate your balanced feedback and are pleased to hear you still enjoyed your holiday and would consider returning.

喜欢 They did provide toilets and bins for your waste, and we were able to pitch together
As we were on the overflow site.

不喜欢 Unfortunately the showers and pot washing, were on the site near the caravans which was quite a distant away on the other side of the site., and only 3 of them.

We are pleased to hear you were able to pitch together and that the overflow field provided toilets and waste bins for your stay.

The overflow field is used during very busy periods when the main camping areas are already full. From your review, it sounds like this may have been a last minute booking, and booking earlier would usually give more choice of pitch types and locations.

The overflow field is not made up of designated pitches, so guests choose where to pitch within the available space. This also means the distance to the main toilet, shower and pot washing facilities is partly chosen by the guest depending on where they decide to set up.

Thank you for your feedback.
