St Helens in the Park Reviews

Great site

We stayed 3 nights in a motorhome on a adults only gravel pitch wiich had a water and electric hook up, electric was pre pay which cost us £3.50 for the the whole stay,We walked to the Dennison Arms in the next village which took 40 mins although good shoes and a torch was needed the meal in there was lovely, The bus stop to Scarborough is at the entrance of the site and run every 2 hours all in all we will return to this site it was great

Perfect

Very welcoming on arrival. An excellent shower block, a lovely friendly cafe, the pitch was excellent and I would definitely recommend.

Pod stay

I had a really nice stay here at St Helens in one of the pods! Hadn't been in a pod before and this was really enjoyable! The Pod was clean, the campsite was also clean! The toilet block was very clean and modern, I liked the touch of the radio playing at any time you went in there (even at 12am!!), it was a nice little touch! The staff were friendly and the on site café had lovely food! All around a lovely pod to stay!

Brilliant

For our first time out in the new caravan life, we couldn't have come to a better start here. The site was clean, well-managed, and everything was on hand to make our stay enjoyable. The café is amazing and a must-go for you lads who like a proper breakfast. I would 100% recommend it to family and friends.

Absolutely amazing

We stayed just for a night so we could visit Scarborough the following day and it was absolutely amazing! The facilities were so clean and the cafe on site was delicious. We will 100% be returning, especially for the price, thank you for having us :)

Happy glamping

We had a fabulous 4 nights. There are a couple of things that I think need mentioning. We were disappointed that the shop wasn't open as it's quite a long drive to the nearest supermarket and it would have been nice if the cafe/bar had been open at night. We had an incident with the barrier as reception hadn't logged the registration plate. This was frustrating but was sorted the next day

Great site, disappointing customer care

Lovely site and the updated shower and toilet rooms are excellent. Used the cafe for takeaway pizza and great value and tasty. Pitches excellent. However, experience tainted by experience beyond our control. Issue with car had led to it stopping without warning which, as we are both in our 70s, was more than worrying. Thankfully. a local garage said they would look at it. They could only do this on day we were leaving site. This meant we didn't know if the car would be back to us in time to leave site by 11am. Explained this to reception and paid for extra night. However, garage sorted car and we were able to leave before the 11am time and so the extra day was not required. We were surprised that site did not accept that this was a scenario out of our control and refused to refund unused day.

Fab

Immaculate site with added extras such as a dog wash station and donkeys, alongside lovely, safe walks. We will be back again very soon.

Gem of a site in great location

Friendly staff and the cleanest campsite we've stayed on in the UK. Toilet and shower block was modern and immaculately kept at all times. First time we've stayed in a pod. Wasn't disappointed. Would love to return next time we're in the north east.

A fantastic review, thank you very much. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and we very much look forward to welcoming you back again soon!

Lovely campsite

Had a lovely short break here in August, site was great. Street food kept my two daughters waiting for 1hr and 40 mins for a very small order. Definitely give them your number and go back, don't wait. Other than that - no complaints.

Site's response

So pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay, thank you very much for your feedback. We apologise for your wait, Streetfood is an outside caterer who visit our site but we will pass on your feedback. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

Fab campsite

Cannot fault this campsite at all. We arrived at about half 7 on the Friday night and were met by lovely people in reception. Our pitch was in the adults only part, it was lovely. The facilities are brill, lovely and clean, there is even individual cubicles with hair dryers in! The laundry looks good, although we didn't use it. If you take your dog there is even a dog wash room!

Glamping pod

Lovely clean site, has everything on site that you would need. Friendly staff. Will definitely be staying again.

We appreciate your review and look forward to welcoming you back again soon!

Very pleasantly surprised

We move around the country quite regularly and often book similar sites and accommodation as a means to catch a break from work. This was by far the nicest site we have been to. We are used to a field with a pod, toilet block and a BBQ. This site has everything you could need for a long term, comfortable stay. Unfortunately, we had to leave earlier than expected but it's on our list for a long term stay when we are next up.

Thank you for your lovely review, we very much look forward to welcoming you back again soon!

Good experience

It was my first time using a pod in a campsite. I am very happy to have made that choice. A pod will be my preference for future camping. I have to say, the ensuite public bathroom was the best experience in the park. Thanks.

Site's response

So lovely to hear you enjoyed our camping pods, we are especially pleased to hear about our fantastic facilities. Thank you for your review and we look forward to welcoming you back again soon!

Lovely place and cafe

Great, all round, well kept site. We were at the café on Friday and Saturday, Greek night and pizza night had lovely food and lovely people. The only downside was on both nights, we waited an hour and a half for food.

Site's response

Thank you for your review, we are so pleased you had a lovely stay. Our Greek and Pizza nights at our onsite café are extremely popular and we do get very busy, so we do apologise for your wait. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and our yummy pizzas! We hope to welcome you back again soon.

Great site!

Chose this site for a last minute getaway & we weren't disappointed. When we arrived we didn't realise just how big the site was until we were led round to our pitch, it's massive! We booked into the adult only section for a bit of peace & quiet and it was pretty relaxing apart from the odd kids on a scooter or bike whizzing past. We were told that the nearest shower block hadn't yet been refurbished like the others on the site but it was perfectly adequate, clean and never had a problem getting a shower. In fact, every time either myself or my husband went for one, we had the place to ourselves, which was very surprising considering the size of the site. We took our dog with us and there was a lovely 'field' walk at the entrance to the park but also plenty of space around the site to walk with him too. While we were there a fish n chip van visited and also an Asian street food van, can't comment on them because we already had our meals planned. Electric is prepaid onto a card and when you leave you get refunded for what you don't use, which we felt was a very good/fair system. There was some road noise but not enough to bother us, in fact we commented how peaceful it was in the adult only section. There are 'private' bathrooms which you can pay extra for, which I suppose is a good idea if you have a family. There is also a room to do your washing, if needed. All in all, we had a lovely stay, the weather obviously made a big difference, and we will certainly be going back again before the summer is over.
