  • Peaceful, secluded pitches at a family-run touring park
  • A two-mile walk from Hornsea and the East Yorkshire coast
  • In rambling country with easy access to the Trans Pennine Trail
Are you after a quiet, secluded and no-frills East Yorkshire spot – with easy access to hikes and the Yorkshire coast as well as some shops and pubs? White Cottage Holiday Park should see you sorted if so, as it's in peaceful and remote countryside just outside the town of Hornsea on the East Yorkshire coast. There's easy access from here to the Trans Pennine Trail, the long-distance path running for 215 miles from coast to coast across the north of England from Southport to Hornsea; plenty more scenic countryside walks, footpaths and trails start from around these parts too if you'd rather strike out on your own. The site is run by a local family who've given it a bit of a spruce up over the past couple of years, installing an updated amenities building with eco-friendly touches like locally sourced timber, lambswool insulation and a ground source heat pump system for the hot water and heating. With the seaside town of Hornsea a mile away, a major supermarket, shops, newsagents, bank and post office are all within walking distance.

From the manager: Thankyou for your review. I’m so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. With regards to the shower temperature I’m sorry they weren’t hot enough for you. The water temperature has to be set between 38 degrees and not exceed 43 degrees. Our showers are currently running at 41 degrees inline with the BEAMA code of practice regulations. I will however keep an eye on them as we haven't had any other feedback regarding the water temperature. Thankyou Katie

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Firstly we were welcome by Katie who saw us to our pitch and bought over tyre mats so we didn't sink and ruin the grass verge in front of the pitch. The place is flat and very clean with excellent toilet and shower facilities. On leaving Katie was on hand again along with another person to help push the van of the pitch again using the mats for to hook up to the car on the gravel road.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Katie made the visit so pleasant, she was there to meet us on arrival and there to help us off our pitch to go home. The weather was horrible, we asked Katie if it was ok for us to wait a little before departure and she was happy to allow us to hold off. The toilets were spotless and the site was so tidy, even though it had been torrential rain for days.

Disliked: Nothing, we will be back!

Local attractions

Get onto one of the local footpaths or trails from White Cottage Holiday Park, or tackle as much as you dare of the Trans Pennine Trail, which finishes up in Hornsea after its epic run east from Merseyside's Southport. Its mainly traffic-free route is suitable for horse riding and bikes too (and in most cases buggies and wheelchairs) and it was voted the best National Cycle Network in the country in 2015. Also within easy reach is Hornsea Mere, the biggest freshwater lake in Yorkshire and where peeps flock to for birdwatching, rowing, sailing, boat trips and fishing. Set on the remains of a vast wetland, it's a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest and a Special Protection Area for birds, with many species visiting throughout the year. A café and 18-hole putting green are on the mere's shore. White Cottage is 13 miles from Beverley, with rail access to York and Hull for shopping and days out. You could also wander around the many stately homes of the region, such as Burton Constable Hall, Burton Agnes and Rise Hall.
