Anyone recommend a site near Filey that isn't a holiday park or on the cliff top?

Think we'll camp there next year instead of staying in the usual flat but I find the Haven sites too noisy and I know how windy it gets on the top (don't fancy a flattened tent!)

I have 2 kids so can't go adults only but don't necessarily need playground etc for them.

Have a look at Centenary Way. It's a lovely site within 10 minutes walk of Filey.

i've only stayed at the blue dolphin site in a static years ago, and on the clifftop sites it does get windy , my mrs and kids want to go around that area in a couple of weeks just for a change rather than down south , hoping someone can recommend a site near scarborough thats not on a cliff and doesnt want £35 a night like the c and cc

Second vote here for Centenary Way, it's a lovely site, nice easy walk into Filey or down to the beach, and it does have a play area for the kids.

My friend and Childminder (and camping buddy) is giving the kids a treat and camping at Centenary Way this week (so if it rains and they go stir crazy, they can go home for a bit!)
So will take some photos and post them this week

Best wishes Sam

Thanks everyone.

Just read some of the reviews for Centenary Way and it's looking very promising. Only concern is a couple of reviews mentioned that the pitches are hard standing - not so great in a tent.... Could you comment on this when you've been please Sam? (hope you have fun!)

Caravan pitches are hardstanding Karen, though oddly enough when we were there I did see a couple of tents pitched on them, but there's a tent field at the bottom end of the site which is all grass, so you don't need to worry

Thanks - just got a bit worried as the first two reviews I read from tent owners said they were pitched on the hardstanding ones. Would hate to get there and find that's where I'd been put but I'll check if/when I book.

Also considering Saxdale House (thanks Sam).

I was also about to recommend Saxdale House.
Nice quiet site with lots of space and a very nice friendly owner. Near enough but far enough away from everywhere iyswim
