It's a fantastic little campsite that ticks all the boxes in a beautiful part of the country, in easy reach of Scarborough and Whitby. It's not an easy site for anyone with mobility issues but as long as you know that, you can avoid. It's also not a good campsite if you hope to pitch tents as a group as the pitches are separated and choice of pitch is limited, based on availability. We would definitely recommend and stay again though and the showers we nice and hot but with on / off only, you can't chose the temperature. The only things that let it down are super easy quick fixes. Some solar lighting in the toilets, showers and sink area would be amazing. Juggling a torch and trying to use the loo is tricky. The toilet doors are a nightmare on springs, the toilets in the campervan area are much easier to use as they don't spring back on you whilst you're trying to step in and out. Finally, a small bin or waste bag in the toilets is a must for sanitary towels and toilet roll tubes. Are you supposed to find your way to the bins in the dark, in the middle of the night, to dispose of used products? It's only a matter of time before the toilets get blocked from people trying to flush pads due to lack of bins!
Peaceful and good location

Prospect House Park is well located in North Yorkshire. It was easy to travel to many coastal locations during my stay. The site has great eco-credentials and the pitch areas well maintained. A horsebox had been repurposed as two toilets and shower, and there were additional toilets and showers/washing up facilities on the camping field. The site is peaceful and a great place for an escape.

Things to do on site and in the Scarborough area
The sites ideal location caters to everyone, whether you're looking to enjoy countryside walks or the bustle of nearby towns.
There is a bridleway running through the site that leads you to Scalby village in one direction or a woodland walk in the other. Head a little further afield for more picturesque walks with The Cleveland Way or Dalby Forest not too far away.
For a day of seaside fun Scarborough is just a 15 minute drive away. Offering two beautiful beaches, the south is great if your looking for arcades, fish and chips and a livelier day out. Whereas the north is quiet and great for rock pooling, fossiling and just relaxing on a secluded beach.
You can also visit the many attractions of Scarborough, taking in the culture at the castle and museums, splash around at the Alpamare Water Park or admire in the scenery on the North Bay Railway.
Other nearby attractions include:
- Peasholm Park (10 minutes)
- Playdale Farm Park (25 minutes)
- Scarborough Fair Collection and Vintage Transport Museum (25 minutes)
- Flamingo Land Resort (40 minutes)
