Heart of the Wolds - Spring Willows

53af20be-8b79-4a75-acf4-b9fb011400b8
CAN you imagine delicious barbecues beside your own luxury holiday property on long summer evenings with nothing but the sound of birdsong to accompany you. Or a balmy spring afternoon stroll through the meadows or along the beach marvelling at the trees bursting into blossom or the miles of unspoilt coastline as you breathe in the fresh country air.

That’s the kind of lifestyle you could discover at Spring Willows, a luxurious, family-friendly holiday park close to the seaside towns of Scarborough, Filey and Bridlington. It’s in a magnificent sun trap on the edge of the Yorkshire Wolds on the outskirts of Scarborough, centred round a beautiful natural spring and with landscaped gardens.

There is a range of excellent facilities, including a bar and restaurant, heated indoor pool, gymnasium and outdoor children’s play area. And it offers a range of comfortable luxury holiday homes.

Each model is beautifully fitted and furnished with all the space you need to enjoy weekends, holidays or longer stays. The park is open for 11 months of the year, so you can choose to spend as much time in your home as you want.

What’s more, the friendly staff and thoughtful layout and design make it an ideal place for a holiday home. If you phone the team there, they will arrange a VIP Park Tour for you and you can make up your own mind!
