Campsites with campfires near Hull

·

Beyond nearby camping, bustling Hull, Yorkshire’s chief seaport on the River Humber, has a pretty old town of cobbled streets, a museum quarter, and international ferry connections to Belgium and the Netherlands. Seaside-lovers relish Hull’s position midway along a sandy seaboard, with East Yorkshire’s beaches leading off in one direction and North Lincolnshire’s beaches in the other. Lesser known is its location at the start/finish of a couple of fantastic long-distance hikes: the Yorkshire Wolds Way (running north) and the Viking Way (running south). North of the city are some of the best campsites near Hull, some on farms and others on the river’s edge.

12. Snettisham Meadows

96%
(24)
113km from Hull · 40 units · Tents, Motorhomes
Set on a traditional family-run farm in rural Norfolk, Snettisham Meadows is on the outskirts of the pretty village of Snettisham and short drive away from North Norfolk's beautiful white sandy beaches. Animal-mad campers, form an orderly queue please, as this 329-acre farm has several attractions up its sleeve for you, including meet-and-greets with pigs and ponies, lamb feeding in spring and deer safaris. There’s also a dog paddock for rent so four-legged companions can have a frisk around, and an area on the camping field is reserved for guests with dogs. Campfires and barbecues are permitted and you can borrow firepits from the site owners. Logs are also available to buy. The site is only 10 minutes’ walk from a village pub if you fancy a change of scenery. After a fun-filled day exploring this lovely part of Norfolk, come back to your pitch and keep your fingers crossed for clear skies and some serious stargazing. Facilities include washing-up sinks, a small shop at reception for essential supplies and tourist information, USB phone charging and a freezer for ice packs.

19. Bickley Rigg Farm Glamping Wagons

100%
(27)
64km from Hull · 4 units · Glamping
With a private valley, formed in the last ice age, acres of land and woodland to explore, our farm has a very special feeling which has been mentioned by every visitor. Occupied by some beautiful wildlife, including buzzards and owls, deer, badgers and foxes. The Wagons have a grass roof, firepits, sleep 4 (in double bunk format), they are hand-made from reclaimed materials salvaged from the local town and other areas, double skinned and insulated with sheeps wool. They have a 2-ring gas-burner in the cute kitchen area, dining table and seating, and are the perfect home away from home. All the decor is vintage, including cuttlery, crockery and even the childrens teddy's. Being on the doorstep of Dalby Forest, there are hours of entertainment to be had. You can follow the stream at the bottom of the valley to the River Derwent or venture into the surounding woods. We can provide a guest pass (free access) for Dalby Forest. The Wagons are not powered by electricity and are romantically lit by candles and oil lamps. Heated by cast iron gas heaters.

Campsites with campfires near Hull guide

Where to go

Yorkshire Wolds

These low hills (or wolds) rise out of the surrounding East Yorkshire flat farmland, and you can hike across them from Hull on the 79-mile Yorkshire Wolds Way. Gently undulating, the wolds offer easy hiking and cycling, plus plenty of prehistoric history, including Britain’s tallest standing stone, the Rudston Monolith. You’ll find this area far quieter than the nearby coast, which means there are a number of serene camping spots and farm stays with plenty of space.

East Yorkshire Coast

Running from Spurn Head, just east of Hull, the East Yorkshire coast and its splendid beaches stretch past seaside resorts Withernsea, Hornsea, and Bridlington, then rounds Flamborough Head, home to one of Europe’s most important concentrations of seabirds. It’s a shoreline well-served by caravanning and camping sites, many of which are holiday-maker-focussed and quite large. Smaller, more personal campsites can be found out near Hornsea and Skipsea.

North Lincolnshire Coast

Another big sweep of sand begins across the other side of the Humber Estuary from Hull at Grimsby and runs continuously all the way around to Skegness. Traditional beachside holiday-making is the thing here, and the choice of caravanning and camping sites is huge. Sites tend toward the large and busy along the coast, but there are some hidden gems too, especially inland.

When to go

May is the best all-round month for a Hull holiday—sunshine hours are usually longer than in the June-to-August high season, and rainfall is lower. Swimmers like the seawater temperatures of late August and September, which are the year’s balmiest. May and September are the best hiking months in the wolds, when average daily temperatures hit 16-19°C. Big Hull-area festivals include The Awakening arts celebration in March, August’s Tribfest in Driffield, and the Flamborough Fire Festival in December.
