Filey Camping: Best Campsites Near Filey, North Yorkshire

Between the seaside resorts of Scarborough and Bridlington, Filey offers simpler days by the seaside. Its long sandy beach is perfect for paddling, swimming and sandcastle building and it' got a lower-key attraction all of its own with a promenade, beach huts and a bandstand just off the shoreline. It's a great launching pad for walks on the 109-mile Cleveland Way which starts at Filey Brigg, a peninsula a mile north of the town. Camping and glamping in Filey and its surroundings gives you access to wilder and quieter stretches of the Yorkshire coastline but keeps you within reach of the kiss-me-quick entertainment of the busier neighbouring resorts and offers easy access to the stunning Yorkshire moors too. The area's been attracting holidaymakers since Victorian times and there are plenty of places to stay but here at Hipcamp we steer clear of the large-scale holiday parks and caravan sites that dominate the coast and look for smaller, independent camping and glamping sites. We've only given the thumbs up to the ones that we think offer something special whether that's a classic campsite in a special location or luxury glamping in pods, yurts and bell tents.

Filey's golden sands are where it's at if you want a paddle in the sea, lunch with a sea view or a stroll along the prom. The town centre has independent shops and cafes and a little museum where you can learn about its history. Filey Brigg, a mile north of town, is where the Cleveland Way National Trail begins. It's a lovely place for walking, running and birdwatching. The same can be said about Flamborough Head, 13 miles to the south, with its iconic lighthouse. It's less than 10 miles to Scarborough which offers the full range of seaside attractions from donkey rides on the beach to boating in Peasholm Park and the Scarborough Sealife Centre. Inland, you can explore Dalby Forest where there's yet more walking, mountain bike trails and treetop adventures, on the edge of the Yorkshire Moors National Park. For more informationon things to do while you're camping and glamping in Filey, visit the Discover Yorkshire Coast website.

Just south of the bucket-and-spade resort of Scarborough, the smaller town of Filey offers a quieter way to explore the North Yorkshire coast, with a host of good campsites in the local area. Find the best of them today, with Hipcamp's carefully selected collection of top campsites.

With a private valley, formed in the last ice age, acres of land and woodland to explore, our farm has a very special feeling which has been mentioned by every visitor. Occupied by some beautiful wildlife, including buzzards and owls, deer, badgers and foxes. The Wagons have a grass roof, firepits, sleep 4 (in double bunk format), they are hand-made from reclaimed materials salvaged from the local town and other areas, double skinned and insulated with sheeps wool. They have a 2-ring gas-burner in the cute kitchen area, dining table and seating, and are the perfect home away from home. All the decor is vintage, including cuttlery, crockery and even the childrens teddy's. Being on the doorstep of Dalby Forest, there are hours of entertainment to be had. You can follow the stream at the bottom of the valley to the River Derwent or venture into the surounding woods. We can provide a guest pass (free access) for Dalby Forest. The Wagons are not powered by electricity and are romantically lit by candles and oil lamps. Heated by cast iron gas heaters.

I stayed for two nights on an electric hardstanding pitch. The pitches are nice and spacious, and the facilities are clean and warm, with good hot showers. I enjoyed taking a little walk along the side of the lake with my morning coffee. There's a little shop on site for milk, alcohol, and snacks, and there are really good walking options right on the doorstep. The staff were friendly and helpful too. I will definitely stay here again.

This was our first real trip as newbie motorhomers. We had a lovely couple of days between Christmas and New Year. Site was busy but still peaceful. Hosts keep an eye on things and are more than happy to help if required. Hassle free booking. Plenty of space between pitches and plenty of room on pitches. The facilities are good and kept spotless. There are short or long walking tours to Castle Howard and a lovely walk along the lakeside. Take your walking boots as not really suitable for trainers. Take extra hookup cables as it can be a long way to ehu points.

Staying in 'Oxo'. Amazing cozy little hut full of amazing personal touches and a lovely warm welcome from the owner and some lovely little luxurys on a welcome tray. The site has a little dog run, a little shop for beers, wine and eggs, washing facilities and fire.pits. Brilliant stay.

Weekend Trip to Greenoak Hideout

We had such a lovely stay at Greenoak. The hosts were so friendly and approachable and there were lots of lovely small touches that made the yurts feel homely and comfortable. The log burners and electric blankets meant that we were warm over night and had a really comfortable sleep. We are looking forward to going in the Summer to be able to enjoy more daylight hours. The boys (4 and 7) loved all of the friendly animals and the play equipment on the land, as well as the hot tub! We will definitely book again and would recommend to our friends and family! Thank you for a lovely stay and we look forward to visiting again next year!

The setting was just perfect for our family of five (including two dogs and a 4 year old). The Yurt was comfortable, clean and very cosy. The private shower and toilet facilities were great, as was the hot tub. We had a trip to the local nature reserve during our stay, however think our daughter and the dogs were just as happy in the grounds with lots to explore, very friendly animals and lots of activities including trampoline and climbing walls. Thank you.

Such a lovely spot. Very idyllic and private. Pitches were a decent distance from each other which was really nice - it was nice knowing other people were around but having your own private space. Dog friendly, which was brilliant - camped for the first time with our boy. He didn't like the owls! We will be back!

We had a wonderful time at Woodsworth Exploring - our kids loved camping in a woodland, and it is well-looked after and beautiful. You do have to walk in with your gear, but they provide wheelbarrows for you to use. Emma was very responsive and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and hope to come back sometime soon!

Happy farmer sitting in a truck in a grassy field

But for a more authentic taste of the North East coast, this pretty fishing town offers glorious sands, beautiful sunrises and a chance to get back to nature along the North Yorkshire coastline. Stroll to Filey Brigg and join the renowned Cleveland Way footpath, explore Glen Gardens or hunt for fossils in the bay. However you choose to spend your time, the local area has a number of great campsites in which to pitch your tent. And, as always, only the very best have made it onto our shortlist.
