IS IT THE WORST campsite on the Yorkshire Coast? We visit Filey Brigg.

Filey Brigg, is it the worst campsite on the Yorkshire coast and did we find the Northern Lights? We headed to Filey Brigg in search of the Northern Lights, even though the campsite we had to stay on had some of the worst trip advisor reviews we have seen. Are the staff as rude as it says? Has the site seen better days? Or are the reviews unfair? We fly the drone over the Brigg and explore Filey itself. Hope you enjoy having a wander with us and we will let you know at the end what we thought of the campsite.
Travelling in our Self Built Campervan is our favourite thing to do!

Just found you and subbed. Good honest review of the site and it confirms one reason why we don't use sites any more. Not a part of Yorkshire that we know bit intend to remedy next year. Looking forward to catching up on your other videos. Thanks both.

[@campervancodgers124]

Thanks guys we've just subbed back and will have a look after work you sound like, like minded people who love getting about, thanks for the lovely comment, look forward to catching up on you vlogs 💗

[@TheEerieBiker]

Fantastic videography! Loving it!

[@campervancodgers124]

Thank you Craig that really means alot. 🙏 💗 My neighbour is hooked on your channel now 👍

The headland you pointed to is Carr Naze. Filey Brigg is the rocky outcrop at the bottom of Carr Naze & is only visible at low tide. You were initially walking on the Wolds Way. It transitions to the Cleveland way at the stone marker on Carr Naze.The entire caravan site doesn't get used in winter as the lower half gets bogged down with rain water. I walk my dog in the Country Park every day. If I stray over the edges of the caravan site, the stroppy management always moan at me , so I know they can be miserable. However, Filey is a great place for a peaceful holiday. Thanks for the video. It was fun.

[@campervancodgers124]

Thank you for that information we will include it when we visit again. Which we will. Thank you for watching so pleased you enjoyed the video, we do try keep things light hearted and fun. 🥰

[@carol_ann_living.in.the.moment]

Great vlog guys, you are both so funny together ❤️. I'm over the East Coast in July so might add this onto my goto places 😀

[@campervancodgers124]

Thank you so much, ❤️ the location is perfect just a but dated and Filey is beautiful, I'm sure you'd enjoy. Thank you so much for watching ❤️😍👍

[@itsanomadslife]

That was a nice coastline walk there probably worth it for that maybe 😊

[@campervancodgers124]

It was a lovely walk and beautiful sights. That's the best thing about travel, feasting your eyes on beauty. Thanks for watching guys ❤❤

[@Dave-bj1bq]

I love Darren's running commentary when he took over. He'll be doing Look North next. Bempton cliffs can be a good spot for the Northern lights. You do need to be careful of the werewolf when there's a full moon though. The vervain could have come in useful, it's used as a homeopathic remedy. Great for swelling and pain relief. So ideal for Toni's foot lol😂. Great footage and as always, very entertaining. Look forward to seeing the next one xx

[@campervancodgers124]

Thanks Dave will have to give Darren the camera more. I enjoyed the freedom ha ha will have to try Bempton , just research the moons better next time ha ha. Thank you for watching hope your well.❤️

[@roberttomkinson1052]

Lovely site the staff that I’ve seen have all been polite and helpful . The location is beautiful the toilet blocks on car park and see front have been upgraded and are spotless. However the site toilets and shower blokes are dated and in need of modernisation. Looking forward to sit opening this year it such a great location an good bus routes to Scarborough Bridlington and Whitby makes for some good holidays and with good pubs just a walk away

[@campervancodgers124]

It Definitely is in a lovely location. However it really does need updating. This like we said wouldn't stop us going for a weekend as we are self contained anyway. Enjoy your travels this year and thank you for watching 🥰

[@TheBeechy66hull]

Had winkles when I was a youngster from whitby and was sick for a week.. Pampas grass. Lol

[@campervancodgers124]

We used to eat them all the time, I'd be sick now , and trust Darren 🤣

[@sheilahowse6880]

New sub here you talk my language don’t judge a book by its cover and beer o’clock never been to Filey Brigg even though don’t live far away lovely shots with the drone CV

[@campervancodgers124]

Thank you for your sub, always have to check that watch for beer o'clock 😂 it's surprising isn't it how we don't see what's on our doorstep, we loved filey Brigg. Glad you liked the drone footage 💖💖

[@simonlegg1301]

I used to go to hull indoor market with my mam when I was you to buy winkles and eat the with a needle

[@campervancodgers124]

Morning, yes and had to pick the little black bit off first, and always came in a brown bag. We'd never eat them now, even our brothers and sisters said no when we asked them if they would eat them now. Thanks for watching 🩷

[@peskyparttimers8239]

We stayed there a few times and it used to be ok. Last time we went though they wouldn't let us on despite being 75% empty so we ended up riding round for 2 hours looking for somewhere to park for the night. Seems to be used by "travellers" of the less desirable variety as well.

[@campervancodgers124]

Thanks for watching , we didn't notice any travellers and I don't understand why the council won't let the huge car park opposite be used for overnight by those fully self contained. Maybe they could use the extra funds created to update the actual site xc

[@chaddamp2894]

Hi, I think you'd love it there when the tide is out,you can walk on the rocks all the way to the end (over half mile)Also if you like fish and chips then Inghams is the place to go !!

[@campervancodgers124]

Thank you for this we love Filey and when I was a little un I actually saw a sea horse in a rock pool. We need to go back when the tides out and look again 💗

[@KewiCampervan]

❤

[@campervancodgers124]

Thanks for watching 💗

[@ErnieCG]

We went to Filey in the 90s and stayed in a guesthouse it was nice

[@campervancodgers124]

We loved Filey itself, so clean and tidy and will definately go back. Thank you for watching. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas xx

[@shellh5571]

Hey what is the name of this site please? Thanks x

[@campervancodgers124]

Filey Brigg country Park.

[@user-yd9wc7lz2b]

Yes you can walk on filey brigg when the tide is out. I dont care what trip advisor says we love the campsite for the position. We were just up from your piitch nearer the shower block. It is what you make it. We liked that the carpark wasnt rammed at night .xxx it would anoy me if i had paid a proper fee and someone takes the mickey. We do filey alot. Either camping or rent a flat on the front. Probably cockles?wear your tacticle gloves when parking overnight when being naughty😂😂😂 xx perhaps a balaclava?😂😂❤ filey fish and chips. Definitely fair comment on showers they weren't like that when we came a few years ago. Thankyou for your warts and all account. We moved pitch from nearer reception as there was a big muddy hole it is quieter where you are. BUT ALL THAT SAID IF PEOPLE WANT TO RISK A 70.00 fine good luck to you. I live down south now so lots of places to explore in Hampshire and Dorset.

[@campervancodgers124]

Thanks for watching. We always check for no overnight parking signs and wouldn't risk it. But love the idea of wearing the tactical gloves and a balaclava if we are ever brave enough, which I doubt. 🤣 have a lovely Christmas 🎄 x

[@user-yd9wc7lz2b]

Come to hampshire...Fishery Creek hayling island is basic but a great view great pitches. Little cafe bar. MEADOWBANK Christchurch has the best shower and toilet block ever very modern clean heated floor xxx liz also fish and chip van comes round. x lots to do and see. Portsmouth is fab.

[@Jashic2022]

You heard of skatepark in Filey

[@campervancodgers124]

We haven't. We are hoping to go back in the next month or so, is it worth a visit?

[@Dave-bj1bq]

You and me both, we used to call them bogies with crash helmets on. Still don't like them lol

[@campervancodgers124]

Horrible things , cannot believe both Darren and me used to eat them as kids ,,, yuk 😅

[@SwamperJez]

Hey, just make sure you keep big dick within sight 😂 Nice vlog, and a good laugh as ever!! Hope your ankle fully recovers soon!!

[@campervancodgers124]

I normally close my eyes when big dicks about he scares me🤣🤣. The ankle is still a little dodgy but much less painful. 💗 Thank you for watching. Hope your well. 🥰

[@user-si4pb6zm4b]

A bad mannered person should not define a site, we should all be very careful of what we say on line sometimes I find the person giving the opinion are the obnoxious ones

[@campervancodgers124]

The bad mannered person didn't define the site, she was just one of the few negatives we encountered on the site. Our opinion is shared by other people on Tripadvisor, however I doubt those people are as obnoxious as me but I'm trying to improve. Thanks, Darren.
