Lebberston Touring Park
Site Owner Mark and Jane Boleat
Open 1 March-31 October
Inspector Pat Murphy
Lebberston Touring Park is a compact site close to the seaside resort of Scarborough on the north-east Yorkshire coast. Despite its proximity to the bustling town, Lebberston is
a tranquil site on a gently sloping vale with magnificent views towards the moors: the perfect place to unwind and relax.
There are 125 pitches, of which 23 are hardstanding. Most pitches are flat, with only ten on the kind of slope that might require you to get out your levelling chocks. There is little to divide the pitches, but there are plenty of trees, hedges and flower beds, which make the site look very pretty.
The site isn't overloaded with facilities and, as a result, isn't going to suit visitors who like to overdose on activities while on holiday. That said, it is well located for anyone who fancies exploring the amazing Yorkshire coastline. It's a perfect site for couples or families who take pleasure from the beauty surrounding them.
Splendid little parks like this are often let down by poor washroom facilities. This certainly isn't the case with Lebberston. It boasts two immaculate blocks, including good disabled and family facilities.
Security is becoming a major issue on touring sites these days, but there are no such problems at Lebberston. The site holds
a 'Secured by Design' award, and the storage facility offered by the park has its own CaSSOA Gold Medal-standard secure compound.
This site is ideal for a quiet break. Sitting out in a deckchair and relaxing with a bottle of wine from the site's small
off-licence, and good friends or a good book makes for a perfect evening. During the day, a ramble over the moors, or a stroll along one of the nearby golden beaches can be exhilarating. This is a great example of
a privately owned British touring site.
There's a dedicated tourist information centre to help you plan your stay, and a nearby village pub in which to pore over the possibilities.
