About St Helens in the Park
St Helens in the Park, just outside Scarborough, has raised the bar with a major refurbishment that's left its shower blocks genuinely impressive—spotless, underfloor-heated, with private changing cubicles that feel almost hotel-like. The site offers a generous spread of pitches, from grass touring plots to fully serviced hardstanding (including adult-only options), plus two ensuite glamping pods with hot tubs if you fancy extra comfort. Families and dog owners are warmly welcomed, and the on-site shop and cafe keep prices reasonable, avoiding the holiday-park markup you sometimes see elsewhere.
Friendly staff and well-maintained grounds create a peaceful base for exploring the North Yorkshire coast and moors. Open year-round with WiFi throughout, it's a polished operation that manages to feel relaxed rather than regimented—though with this level of facilities, peak-season pitches do book up quickly.

What visitors say
One of the best campsites we have stayed on! Due to a long journey we arrived late on Thursday night (9pm), as we had selected the Self Check In Option the barrier opened for us and we found our pitch, the electricity had already been loaded onto the meter so this was really helpful. We had booked pitch 43 which was a Large Fully Serviced Pitch - this was beautifully kept with wooden fence surround and plants/bark border. The pitch was huge, we had our caravan, awning and tow car on the pitch and there was still plenty of space. This was one of the closest pitches to the toilet/shower block and I was a little nervous about potential noise of people walking too and from but I had no reason to worry as I barely heard anyone else for the 5 nights we stayed! The toilet & shower block was amazing too! Underfloor heating so no cold feet in these chilly months, sizeable rooms so I could take my two small children in with me and there was still plenty of space to wash and dress. There was also a big vanity mirror with hairdryers which was lovely to use. I took my children to the park which was well kept and plenty to do, a great range for older and younger children too. We tried the Cafe on the first day and this was lovely with reasonable prices. The location is also great, it was around a 15 minute drive to Scarborough sea front where we spent a lot of time, similar distance to Pickering for the train. We also spent a day in York which was around 45 minutes drive so still reasonably close! We will not hesitate to come back, the facilities, staff and location were all faultless. We have been looking for a site in the area to keep coming back too and we have definitely found it!

Loved this place. As soon as you drive in, it just feels nice. It's really well set up WITH ANPR in the gate in case you arrive a bit later and you have selected the self check in option, which involves you being pre-allocated your pitch and heading straight there upon arrival. As you drive through, the pitches seem a bit tight, but we had booked an extra large pitch in the adult only section and these were much bigger and much more spacious. Electricity is chargeable on this site and the self check in option has £10 pre-loaded onto the pitch. We used about a fiver a day in early October (and during Storm Amy) so that didn't seem too bad. The shower blocks are some of the best I have ever seen. Under floor heating, a separate changing area in each cubicle, decent water pressure and praise the gods, A PROPER TAP!!! I hate push button taps on showers so this was a blessing. The only suggestion I have for the showers would be bigger shower heads, but that really is nit picking. Other facilities include dog wash, bike wash, a café and a small shop. This really is one of the nicest sites I've visited in ages and as such we have booked to come back for a full week in April.

We have travelled up and down the country to numerous parks over the years, then we found this gem. Perfectly kept grounds and friendly staff. The new wet rooms are the best we have ever seen, refurbishment of other blocks was underway. Small shop on site that sells the basics. Also a cafe which is also licensed. Only downfall there is no clubhouse or a pub within walking distance, the cafe is OK to have a drink but it closes most days at 3pm. Needs a fully stocked bar/clubhouse which is open all day and this would be our number 1park.
