East Yorkshire is home to three of the UK’s best sites for an outdoor break, it has been revealed.
Campsites.co.uk, one of the UK’s go-to camping, touring and glamping booking platforms, has released its much-anticipated Outstanding Sites list for 2025. The list includes the top 150 camping, glamping and touring sites and celebrates those who offer their visitors a reliably great holiday.
From holiday parks on the beach, to eco camping and luxury glamping, these hand-picked sites are a combination of award winners and other sites that have continually garnered excellent reviews and delivered a first-class holiday in the great outdoors. Martin Smith, founder of Campsites.co.uk, said: “I’m really pleased to launch our list of Outstanding Sites for 2025.
“Every one of these sites is a trusted favourite with our audience and a great choice for your break this summer.” Among the 16 standout sites, in the north east of England, three are in the East Riding.
Dwell On The Moor
“Dwell On The Moor offers a relaxing glamping stay in the Yorkshire countryside, 35 minutes from the historic city of York,” says Campsites.co.uk of this rural site, just outside Holme-on-Spalding Moor.

“Each of the luxury pods can sleep up to a family of four, kitted out with all of the essentials, including a full kitchen, en-suite, TV, WiFi and heating. Unwind in the outdoors with your own private hot tub and garden furniture, or cook up a treat over the fire pit/grill. Dogs are also welcome in two of the pods.”
One visitor review of Dwell On The Moor said: “The site was beautiful, peaceful and had everything that you could want.” Another guest said: “The cabins themselves provide a blissful and relaxing experience.”
Wold Meadow
“ Wold Meadow is an adult only glamping site just 15 minutes from the Yorkshire coast. Choose from the Stargazer bell tent or one of five yurts that each sleep two people and have individual private hot tubs, the height of luxury,” says the website of the site located in Wold Newton.

“Explore the beautiful surrounding countryside and switch off at this peaceful retreat. The site is also perfectly located to tackle the Wolds Way in small chunks, the closest point 20 minutes away from your yurt.”
One reviewer said of Wold Meadow : “A perfect little getaway. We enjoyed every minute.” Another camper said: “I cannot rate this place enough, the yurts are beautifully furnished and include everything needed.”
Thorpe Hall
Campsites.co.uk says: “A quiet and peaceful site just ten minutes from Bridlington sea front, Thorpe Hall Caravan and Camping Site is a rural and tranquil site located within the walls of the old kitchen gardens at Thorpe Hall Estate. An excellent base to explore the attractions of East Yorkshire, the site offers electric grass pitches suitable for trailer tents, motorhomes and tourers.

“There are also two cosy 5m bell tents, perfect for couples. There is a large games field where guests can play cricket, football, frisbee, fly kites or simply relax and enjoy a family picnic.”
One review said: “Quiet site with spotless facilities. Set in a walled garden so relatively wind free.” Another commented: “The play field and park were perfect for my children.”
