Another fabulous summer holiday! This was the second time we stayed at Wold Farm, no donkeys this time but an extra toilet!
Both toilets were always clean, we rarely had to queue and this time we used the kind offer of freezer space.
The farmer and his wife were really friendly and kept my kids well entertained as did the sheep! This is a lovely campsite although it does get very cold at night.
We hope to return here although maybe if we come a bit earlier in the summer, it might not be so cold and we could see the puffins in the nearby Bempton Bird Sanctuary.

This is a fantastic quiet certificated site in a great rural setting. The facilities are limited, there are toilets (well maintained) but there are no showers or EHUs. This was reflected in the price of £10 for 2 adults and a dog. The water tap and CDP are located in the upper field.
There are sea views towards the lighthouse and Bridlington from the upper field. From the lower field, there are limited sea views but the lighthouse is still visible. The camping area is obviously regularly mowed and surrounded by fields with sheep and donkeys in them.
There is a path leading directly from the site onto the cliff top walk. From there it is a short walk to the puffins burrows and Danes Dyke. It takes about 30 mins to walk to Bempton Cliffs Nature Reserve (RSPB). There is a beach at North Landing (pebble beach) and South Landing and it's a good idea to check the tide times before going on the beach.
It takes about 10 mins to walk into Flamborough from the site. Flamborough has a good selection of pubs(4) and hotels, all seemed to serve food. If walking back from the pub at night, take a torch as the farm track is unlit. There is also a small Co-op supermarket and a Chinese takeaway.
Bridlington and Scarborough are both a short drive away if you fancy having busier day out. Watch out for seagulls trying to nick your chips! They are very fast!
All in all, this is a great site and we will be returning soon

Found this site 'by accident' whilst driving round looking for campsites earlier in the year. March 2011. Pat, was very welcoming and told us we could have a wander round and even take the coastal path for a walk, if we wished. It was rather cold, so didn't stay for too long.
We booked on the spur of the moment, end of June, for a 3 night weekend at the beginning of July, but ended up staying for 4 nights. We had glorious weather, although did get a fresh breeze mid afternoon, which could turn quite chilly.
The site is up a long track but this helps privacy - if not on site, no need to be up there! We were asked to keep to the edge of fields, otherwise could park up where we wanted.
Views were fabulous, and enjoyed watching all manner of wildlife. Dog was kept on lead at all times.
The site has 2 toilets with plenty of hot water for washes, which if busy could perhaps cause a bit of a wait. This didn't affect us being in caravan. There is also separate fresh drinking water tap and a separate septic tank for waste.
We didn't use any of the nearby pubs or restaurants having got 4 years old grandson with us for part of weekend. But did have a 'couple' at the pub in Nth Landing once he'd gone home.
As we know the surrounding areas quite well (been visiting Bridlington for at least 55 years on/off) didn't feel the need to go gallivanting round and got the rest which we were looking for.
Steve was busy shearing the sheep, of which he let grandson watch on occasion, but always had time for a chat and was very helpful about where to go for walks etc.
Because of lack of electric hook-ups we used gas. Unfortunately as this was the first time in 2 years found a few faults with fridge and water heater not working properly. Now got those fixed and have just made reservations for another long weekend towards the end of July.
I'm also sure as this site is open all year will be back for many months to come.
A lovely, peaceful little haven with plenty of wildlife.

We stayed at the Wold Farm camping site in July, it benefits from a stunning location looking over to Flamborough lighthouse, to get to the site you drive up their private mile long drive (we measured it in the car) it is situated about 400 meters from the stunning cliff edge, accessed by the farms private track.
If you turn right and continue to walk along the cliff edge for about 2 mile you come to a lovely bar (not sure what it’s called).
We arrived on the Tuesday and there was eight tents/camper vans in the two good sized fields and so we got a good position in the second field by the fence, we didn’t have any problem in finding a flat space, but, by the Friday it was so much busier
Wanting a bar meal on our first night we walked into Flamborough village only to find the pubs stop serving food at approx 8pm, we ended up having to get a take away pizza from ‘Ozzy’s’ which I have to say was the nicest spicy pizza I’ve had! We then went on to visit the local bars and I’m afraid I can only recommend the Rose and Crown, it’s a lovely cosy bar, the locals and owners were very friendly and dog friendly too.
The location is fantastic but it is very fairly exposed if the wind is blowing (extra tent pegs needed!) there is two toilets with sinks in and I think a shower (not sure on that one)
£5 per person is a great price I think, the cheapest we have ever paid for a campsite. Would I go again? no, simply because we enjoy a bit of a walk on an evening and the mile walk down the drive and the half mile walk into Flamborough was just a bit too much each night and their wasn’t really anywhere else to go.

The location is beautiful! Views over the countryside to the sea and lighthouse, next to the sheep and other animals about as it is a working farm. The children loved being so close to the animals and running around the spacious field.
The farmer and his family were so friendly and helpful.
Plenty of space to spread out with no extra costs for gazebos / porches / awnings.
Only £10 per night for up to 3 people.
Five min drive from thornwick bay, bempton cliffs and many other attractions.
The downside for me (with 3 young children) was that the facilities were very limited (but this is reflected in the low price). No shower or place to wash pots made some aspects of our camping trip a little tedious.
Their is another house on site (in addition to the farm house) and we were pitched next to this house (which is fenced off from the field) as it was close to the toilet block. Both saturday and sunday their was loud radio on from approx 8 / 9am to the end of the day playing from this garden (maybe the owners were doing work in the garden the weekend we were there). The noise really irritated me as I had picked this particular site especially for its peaceful location. To be on the safe side, go a bit further up the field.
However, the thing that spoilt our stay was the wind! The winds were so, so strong, even though it was a fairly bright, summers day, The tent was a nightmare to pitch and take down in such strong wind - it was very noisy at night, blowing all around and despite multiple layers of clothing and a good insulated tent - I was freezing cold! I suppose strong winds are to be expected on a cliff next to the north sea - although the farmer did say that the winds are not usually as bad as they were this particular weekend. As a result, we only stayed for 2 nights instead of the 3 nights we had planned.
Would I go again? The location is a huge plus, but for me and my family, we will only return if more facilities are made available (it would be worth paying that bit extra for) and if I have checked the forecast for winds in advance.

If you want to experience camping at its very best, a campsite in its early days and untouched by commercialism.you must come here. No one playing loud music, no late night party's no screaming drunks coming out of the on site club, nothing like that at all, the loudest thing you will here are the sheep, pigs, birds and donkeys and they all stop when it gets dark.
During the day, kids under 10 will have a field day. Teenagers, I'm sorry, if your not into good old fashion camping, the lovely rural countryside and what it brings you will hate it.
We have just returned from two nights stay at pat and steven's wold farm. We tried to get into other sites but with it being school holidays we had no chance.and I'm so glad i found this little gem.
Its a bit off the beaten track ( don't get it mixed up with the sign at the start of the track that says camp site this way bookings only. Ignore it and carry on for a further 1/2 mile ) but worth it when you get there.
If you want peace, quiet, good walks, wildlife and tranquillity. You've got it.
This site is very basic but very clean and tidy. On our arrival we were greeted by pat who was very chatty and friendly. She explained that they had only been up and running 3 years.
They only have 2 toilets in one block and no showers yet but to there credit they were seen to be cleaning them every couple of hours. I'm sure with a constant flow of campers, showers, electric hook ups and a little farm shop will all follow very quickly. Oh and the price. A tenner per unit per night.
We loved it and will be coming back again.

This site benefits from a stunning location, right at the end of a long (and bumpy!) farm track at the top of the cliffs, just outside of the lovely little village of Flamborough.
There are some very good food pubs in Flamborough and also a newsagent for essentials (like the matches I forgot to pack, not too good when you have an irate husband wondering how he is going to light the stove for the bacon and eggs on Sunday morning).
There are 2 good sized fields, the bottom one is further from the farm buildings and hence is more peaceful. It is sloping in parts, especially on the bottom field and so it does takes a bit of doing to find the good flat spot for a family-sized tent.
The location is fantastic but it is also fairly exposed if the wind is blowing, so choose where you are going to have your cooking facilities carefully and go in the top field if you want more sheltered conditions.
This is a lovely rural, back to nature uncrowded site so don't expect there to be a lot of facilities - you get one combined toilet and small washbasin with hot water. Expect to have to queue in the busy holiday months, but we didn't find this to be a huge problem.
Don't worry about not having a shower, just pay a visit to the excellent waterpark in Bridlington, with its slides and waves. Great for kids and there was also a normal pool for those who want to have a proper swim. You can walk straight from the site along a footpath to join up with the coastal footpath - wonderful views to be had so well worth the effort.
The owner was friendly and we had a lovely time on this site for 4 days in the summer holidays. I had left it late to book but the owner was helpful and got us booked in with no problems.
It was a reasonable price, some might think it expensive to say how limited the facilities are, but you are paying for the location, this has got to be one of the best on the Yorkshire coast.

Loved this site, although only has one toilet we didn't find we had to queue. The views are stunning, five minute walk from the cliffs and only a short drive/ a bit longer walk to local town which has shops pubs and take aways. The owner is a great bloke very friendly with plans to extend the facilities next year and the donkeys were adorable, mixed campers on site with a great atmosphere lovely and safe if you have kids plenty of room to run around and fields kept clean. As previous reviewers have mentioned I was reluctant to leave a review so we could keep the place a secret but its only fair we say how great it was. Definitely will return here.

We stayed here in our motorhome on the August bank Holiday weekend. £40 for the 3 nights from Fri - Mon. We were welcomed on arrival by the owner and told we can have our pick of places in a choice of 2 fields. Very friendly guy and we spoke about the area and what was going on over the weekend/weather etc.
The site is 2 fields, pretty level, 1 water tap with easy access for motorhome, 1 toilet disposal. Attached to the house there is a toilet with small sink.
I didn't see anything for washing pots and pans but we were self contained anyway.
No electric available on the site, no problem again for us.
We site is exposed to the elements but you do get a lovely sea view and a view down to the lighthouse at Flamborough.
We had no problems finding the site, I checked the instructions on their site before leaving. We met a couple of people on the lane to and from the campsite but there are passing places so no bother.
The site was very peaceful, no noise at all and plenty of space for everyone, not that it was busy with its 5 van limit plus tents.
We have been to the area before so had an idea what we were going to do.
Bempton Cliffs RSPB is withing walking distance on the coastal path. Shop and stuff here.
We drove to Sewerby Hall just north of Bridlington. There is a house, zoo, gardens here and bank holiday had Roman re-enactments and a classic car show. We then used the landtrain down to Bridlington as well. You can walk it but we had a little one with us.
On the Monday we went to the Flamborough RNLI funday at south landing which was good fun too.
Nice simple site, would recommend.

A lovely peaceful site, only one toilet which was always clean and well looked after. No showers available on this site.
Brilliant views of the coastline and the lighthouse in the distance.
No electric hook up - which makes it a quieter site.
The grass was short, not long or overgrown.
The farmer was a polite gentleman, he told us where to be to look at the birds on the cliffs. There was some new born donkeys in one building which were very cute. He also told us about the local area and that the takeaways will deliver to the campsite.
If you are going to use this site for the first time I would suggest looking at the google street view to find this site easier. You do have to go down a long farm track to get to the campsite but well worth it when you get to the field.
