Overcrowded, overgrown, untidy, unwelcoming
We booked to stay for several nights and left early. The location of the site, within a short walk of the Humber and of Spurn, gives the site great potential. Sadly, no effort is put into maintaining the site. I have no problem with a place being a little unkempt: an unkempt site can allow space for birds, insects and other wildlife to share our space. A site where abandoned bottle tops are strewn on the ground and left for days is not one that encourages wildlife.
This space is not so much unkempt as overgrown and overcrowded. There were seven units sharing a very small space at one point, with barely any space to manoeuvre our caravan in or out.
The toilet block was not cleaned at any point in the several days we stayed. The same rubbish was sitting in the overflowing bin when we arrived, the same toilet rolls were lying on the floor.
We never saw any sign of basic maintenance by site management or staff. Discarded plastic sits in one corner of the site. A cement mixer sits unused. Plastic buckets blow across the site. A sign stating “No pedestrians” stands at the site entrance. There is no pedestrian access to the site. This site is ignored by all, including the birdwatchers who freely walk through everyone’s pitches.
There is a wonderful pub just round the corner. We would recommend this pub to anyone who stays at any of the other sites nearby. This site is to be avoided.
