The property

The Drift offers a relaxed, easy-going base for a break on the East Yorkshire coast, set in the quiet spot of High Skirlington near Skipsea.

It’s a single-storey caravan with plenty of room for a small group looking to switch off, breathe some sea air, and enjoy a slower pace for a few days.

Inside, you’ll find two double bedrooms and a twin, along with a clean, straightforward shower room.

The open-plan living space keeps everyone together, cook up something decent in the kitchen, sit down at the table to map out the day, or flop in front of the TV when you’ve had your fill of exploring.

Outside, the enclosed decking is ideal for a brew in the morning or a drink in the evening, and having off-road parking makes coming and going simple.

A small shop sits just a short stroll away for those last-minute bits, while the local pub can be reached with a steady walk or a quick drive.

Skipsea itself has a long stretch of beach perfect for blowing away the cobwebs, and the surrounding coast is full of places worth a wander.

Hornsea’s sandy shoreline, promenade, and independent shops make for a pleasant afternoon out, while Bridlington brings something livelier with its harbour, amusements, and classic seaside buzz.

Head inland and you’ve got Beverley, known for its Minster, markets, and proper old-school charm, the sort of place that rewards a slow wander and a pint.

Nature lovers can make the most of Hornsea Mere, a peaceful spot for birdwatching or simply stretching your legs, and the walking routes along the Yorkshire coast give you the best of the sea views without needing to plan anything complicated.

The Drift puts you within easy reach of all of it: coast, countryside, and a good mix of towns and villages.

It’s the kind of place that keeps things simple, lets you relax, and gives you a solid base for discovering this underrated corner of East Yorkshire.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.

SKIPSEA

Hornsea 6 miles; Bridlington 9 miles; Driffield 11 miles; Beverley 15 miles.

Situated 10 miles south of Bridlington and 6 miles north of Hornsea, the vlllage of Skipsea sits in a typically rural setting surrounded by rich, agricultural land, yet also rests within one mile of the beach and is close to the cliffs of the North Sea. The village has its own Post Office and general store, a hairdresser’s and a pub. Many of the houses in the village, both old and new, use cobbles from the sea shore in the building. Just outside the village are the remains of Skipsea Castle. The surrounding countryside is excellent for walking and cycling, whilst the nearby seaside towns of Bridlington and Filey boast long sandy beaches and numerous resort attractions. The Deep Submarium at Hull, Sledmere House and Burton Constable Hall are within 20 miles, whilst the shops, cathedral and museum of historic York, the resort town of Scarborough and the North Yorks Moors Steam Railway at Pickering are within an hour’s drive, and Whitby is just a little further, making Skipsea a superb base for a relaxing holiday.
