Best Holiday Parks in Yorkshire

The short answer

Where are the best holiday parks to buy in Yorkshire?

The Filey–Cayton Bay–Scarborough stretch is the heart of Yorkshire’s holiday-home market, with big family parks, good facilities and strong value. Bridlington and the East Riding offer cheaper, quieter options.

The Yorkshire coast shortlist

Start around Filey and Cayton Bay for the widest choice of big-brand and independent parks, then widen out towards Scarborough and Bridlington if you want quieter, cheaper pitches.

For every park, confirm the pitch fee, licence period, closed season and resale terms before visiting.

Parks worth shortlisting

We list parks by reputation and location, but prices, pitch sizes and ownership terms change — always confirm with the park.
