Planning an Easter camping break in Yorkshire with the family? There's something magical about spending springtime under canvas in beautiful North Yorkshire. With lambs in the fields and daffodils dotting the landscape, Easter camping in Yorkshire offers the perfect opportunity to reconnect with nature and create lasting memories with your loved ones.


Why Choose Yorkshire for Your Easter Family Holiday?

Just a stone's throw from Scarborough, Prospect House Farm Campsite and Luxury Glamping sits in a prime location for exploring the best of Yorkshire. The Easter holiday provides an ideal time to experience the countryside coming to life, with mild temperatures perfect for outdoor adventures. Our site offers the perfect base for your family holiday near Scarborough.


Easter Activities for the Whole Family

Spring in Yorkshire brings countless opportunities for family fun. The surrounding countryside offers endless possibilities for outdoor adventure, from coastal walks along the dramatic Yorkshire cliffs to exploring historic market towns.


The seaside town of Scarborough, just a short drive from our site, is packed with family-friendly attractions that make for perfect day trips during your Easter break. Here are some must-visit spots:


Scarborough's Historic Castle

Perched high above the town, Scarborough Castle offers breathtaking views across both bays and the harbour. Children will love exploring the medieval ruins and learning about the castle's fascinating 3,000-year history. The interactive exhibition in the Master Gunner's House brings the castle's stories to life, while the grassy grounds are perfect for family picnics with a view.


Traditional Seaside Fun

With its golden sand and sheltered position, Scarborough's South Bay beach is ideal for traditional seaside activities. Even in spring, children can enjoy building sandcastles, playing beach games, or taking a donkey ride along the shore. The historic Spa Bridge provides a perfect vantage point for watching the fishing boats come and go.


North Bay Railway

Take a ride on the miniature railway that's been delighting families since 1931. The train journey offers stunning views of North Bay and runs to Scalby Mills, where you'll find the Sea Life Centre. During Easter, they often run special themed events that add extra excitement to your journey.


Peasholm Park

This beautiful oriental-themed park is a must-visit for families. Take a dragon pedalo out on the lake, watch one of the famous Naval Warfare displays, or simply enjoy the beautiful gardens. The park takes on extra magic in spring when the cherry blossoms are in bloom.


SEA LIFE Scarborough

Perfect for those April shower days, SEA LIFE Scarborough offers a fascinating underwater journey. From local marine life to tropical displays, children can get up close with everything from seals to sharks. The centre often runs special Easter holiday activities and feeding demonstrations.


Essential Easter Camping Tips

Make your Easter camping trip comfortable and memorable by planning ahead:

Pack for all weather conditions - Yorkshire spring can bring sunshine one moment and showers the next. Warm sleeping bags and extra blankets ensure cosy nights, while waterproofs keep you exploring whatever the weather.


Beyond Scarborough

While Scarborough offers plenty of entertainment, your camping base at Prospect House Farm puts you within easy reach of other Yorkshire attractions. The North York Moors National Park provides endless walking opportunities, while the historic city of York makes for a fascinating day trip. The nearby market towns of Malton (known as Yorkshire's food capital) and Pickering (terminus of the North Yorkshire Moors Railway) offer different flavours of Yorkshire life.
