Not a pretty site
This site has everything you need, water and disposal wise. And lots of things you don't want, like a view of the massive electricity distribution system directly opposite your front window, and the scruffy unkempt look of the site surface in general, which you had to look across to see the horses in the field opposite. Also there is a large caravan storage area behind the site, which we backed onto, adding to the general air of this not being a restful, out of the way, place.
I felt like I was staying on an industrial estate, in the yard of a caravan repairs business. The place was quiet apart from road noise at various times of the day, and the regular, though not often, train which passes between the site and the electricity installation.
We used this site as a base to visit friends, and for that it was adequate, although the electricity supply being only 10 amps, did trip out 2 or 3 times until we got used to what we could put on with what to stop it being a problem. Ironic, when you consider the view.
The owner was on hand and very pleasant
A good location geographically to visit Hull
We stayed a couple of nights in order to visit our daughter in Hull. Sadly, we found the site quite scruffy. It was covered in weeds, there was an old run down portocabin that made up our view and behind us, directly over the hedge is a large caravan storage facility. There is one tap and a bathroom toilet that stands outside, behind a gate that is the disposal point. Looks weird but does the job.
Also, its close to a railway line which starts running early in the morning and a huge ugly power station that hums all through the night. Bit of a pong too.
Didn't see any sign of the owner for the whole weekend but that was fine. We walked for 45 mins and never made it into the village, so its not very close and not a pretty walk.
If, like us, you use it as somewhere to sleep whilst visiting family, its fine, but it is certainly not a beauty spot.

Great base
This little site was very easy to book as the owners are very quick and responsive to emails. The site is a great base to stay and has all you need there, and it's only about 20 minutes from Beverly, which is a great place to visit. This site has been listed as tranquil - we didn't really find it tranquil here. There was a low emitting hum from the power station and power lines very closely and noticed it more in the evening (we thought it was our water pump), and also trains passing frequently from about 6.15 in the morning until gone 9 at night. There isn't really a scenic view. It's of a power station, huge pylons, a big storage shed and tatty porta cabin. If you're ited across from where we were sited, you would have a field with horses at the back of you which I imagine would be quite nice. When we arrived our name was on the entrance gate stating which plot we was on and the owner came to see us briefly to explain where to empty our bins etc. The storage facility there for caravans looked well secured. Overall, like I've previously mentioned, a great base for visiting Hornsea, Scarborough and other east coast seaside towns.

A great stay, slightly extended!
We had a lovely stay at Tudor springs, welcomed by Lesley and Philip soon after our arrival. A great view of the railway and chickens and horses in the field next door, which our little one loved! The pitches are a generous size with plenty of room for an awning and parking and still room to spare, although we didn’t use and awning as it was very windy.. because of this we also ended up staying and extra couple of nights, which was no problem at all! Great location for Cottingham, Beverley, Hull and surrounding areas. Thanks for having us stay!
relaxing stay near Hull
Stayed for three nights earlier this month. Site is easy to find and easy to access. Owner was out when we arrived but our name & pitch number was on the board, so able to pitch and settle in. We have absolutely no issue with this - CL owners are not full time wardens. Owner greeted us later in the day with a useful leaflet about facilities in the immediate area.
The pictures on the Club site are an accurate representation - except that the hedges are more developed. The site is flat although some pitches are not completely level and might need leveling blocks. Note that the electricity is 10amps - probably not a problem except in winter.
Surrounding countryside is fields and woodland. The railway is quite close so you hear trains roughly twice an hour - but not overnight.
Convenient for Hull, Beverley and surrounding area. We took the train from Cottingham into Beverley. Parked the motorhome at the station - main carpark has quite a steep slope down which might not be good for longer vehicles with an overhang.
We would visit again if in the area.
