GET EXCITED

Glamping has really taken off as the UK short break of choice for people all ages and from all walks of life, thanks to the simplicity yet convenience of this very appealing type of back-to-basics holiday.

But how to find a suitable site for your break?

It might even feel like your vision of the perfect glamping holiday doesn’t exist! Location is a big deal – you want to be surrounded by countryside but not literally stuck in the middle of nowhere; you’d like peaceful, unspoilt views but need to know there’s lots of attractions, shops and beautiful beaches within a couple of miles; you want your children to be able to play outdoors all day in a safe yet fun environment; and wouldn’t it be wonderful if just for once, a holiday park didn’t put up its prices during the school holidays?

Well, at Pinewood Park, we’ve got the answer to your dilemma. We make it our mission to ensure you enjoy the glamping trip you dream of, without any of the penalties families often suffer. All you need to do is turn up, then let your imagination run wild…

KERRY & DAVE WOODHEAD

Your hosts

Meet Kerry and Dave Woodhead, owners of Pinewood Park, and you’ll quickly realise that giving visitors a magical, memorable holiday is totally what makes them tick. This desire to ensure holidaymakers enjoy every second of their stay means the couple are always on their toes, creating regular updates and improvements to what has become an absolute gem of a glamping site just outside Scarborough, in North Yorkshire 

One feature that is proving popular at Pinewood Park is the accommodation with hot tubs, as more and more people choose to treat themselves to a leisurely hot tub break.

“Each outdoor hot tub is for the exclusive use of the occupants of the accommodation. Some are bubbly, some are wood-fired, but they are all clean and warm and surrounded by fairy lights. We understand that even people who want an active holiday and are out and about all day still appreciate a chance to relax, so you can look forward to quietly chilling out under the stars with a glass of fizz,” Kerry added.

So whether you are visiting Pinewood Park with a friend or partner, as part of a larger group of friends and family, or for a wedding or other celebration, one thing every single visitor can be assured of is a genuine Yorkshire welcome from Kerry and Dave, and a whole host of new memories to treasure.

Packing Tips for Spring Glamping

By Kerry Woodhead • April 23, 2025
Packing Makes or Breaks Trips Most glamping holidays hit snags. Forgotten essentials. Unprepared for weather changes. Too much luggage crammed into too little space. Spring glamping especially challenges packers with its unpredictable mix of sunshine, showers, warm days and chilly nights. But your Pinewood Park adventure deserves better than packing stress. These practical tips ensure you'll have everything needed for comfort without overloading your car. Clothing: The Layer Solution Weather apps often lie. Spring in Yorkshire can deliver four seasons in one day. The secret? Strategic layering. Pack these essentials: Base layers (t-shirts, light long-sleeves) Mid layers (fleeces, light jumpers) Waterproof outer layer Walking shoes/boots Wellington boots Warm socks Hat and gloves (yes, even in spring) This system adapts to whatever conditions appear, keeping everyone comfortable without packing your entire wardrobe. Smart travellers travel light. Kitchen Essentials Simplified Food tastes better outdoors. Your Pinewood Park glamping pod provides basic kitchen equipment, but these additions elevate your meals: Sharp knife (safely packed) Favourite spices in small containers Reusable food storage containers Tin foil (incredibly versatile for cooking) Washing up liquid and cloth Tea towels Thermos flask for walks Remember, local farm shops and markets offer fresh ingredients that need minimal preparation. Simple meals create less washing up and more relaxation time. Tech and Entertainment Balance Disconnecting refreshes the soul. While glamping celebrates nature, some tech makes sense: Phone chargers Portable battery pack Headtorches (essential for evening toilet trips) Bluetooth speaker (kept at considerate volume) Camera Downloaded movies (for rainy evenings) Physical books and games (better than screens) The goal isn't complete digital detox unless you want it. Just enough technology to enhance comfort without distracting from nature's show. Outdoor Comfort Creators Small items make huge differences. These often-forgotten essentials transform your outdoor experience: Picnic blanket (waterproof-backed) Portable camping chairs Insect repellent Sunscreen (yes, even in spring) Reusable water bottles Hand sanitiser Basic first aid kit Bin bags (leave no trace) These items barely take space but solve common glamping frustrations before they start. Experienced glampers never forget them. Children's Special Considerations Kids need different things. Beyond the obvious clothing and toiletries, consider: Familiar bedtime items (special toy/blanket) Nightlight Extra snacks Activity packs for car journeys Outdoor toys (ball, frisbee, bug hunting kit) Extra changes of clothes (they will get muddy!) Children adapt amazingly to new environments when they have their comfort essentials. Their excitement makes everything worthwhile. Before You Leave Home Final checks prevent problems. The day before departure: Check Pinewood Park's facilities list again Monitor weather forecast Charge all devices Prepare first meal (something simple after arrival) Confirm directions and arrival details Pack car strategically (essentials accessible) This final review catches overlooked items and reduces departure stress. Holidays should start relaxed, not frazzled. Your Perfect Spring Escape Preparation creates freedom. With these essentials packed, your spring glamping adventure at Pinewood Park promises comfort, convenience and connection with nature. Book your pod today and start planning your perfect packing list. Because the best glamping experiences combine wilderness wonder with thoughtful preparation.

Top 5 Reasons to Choose a Glamping Getaway This Easter

By Kerry Woodhead • April 17, 2025
Why Easter Glamping? Most holidays disappoint. Easter breaks especially. The weather's unpredictable, attractions are crowded, and hotel prices skyrocket. But what if there was a better way to celebrate? Glamping at Pinewood Park offers that perfect middle ground – the excitement of outdoor adventure with all the comforts you crave. Here's why an Easter glamping getaway might be exactly what your family needs this year. 1. Weather-Proof Adventures April showers won't dampen your spirits. Unlike traditional camping where rain can ruin everything, our glamping pods keep you cosy whatever the weather throws at you. Picture this: raindrops pattering on your wooden roof while you're snug inside with a hot chocolate, playing board games with the kids. Then when the sun peeks out, you're just steps away from outdoor fun. The best of both worlds. 2. Beat the Summer Crowds Smart travellers know a secret. Easter glamping lets you enjoy popular attractions without the summer madness. The beaches around Scarborough? Peaceful and pristine. Local attractions? No queuing for hours. Nature trails? Just you and the emerging spring wildlife. You'll experience Yorkshire at its authentic best, not elbow-to-elbow with other tourists. 3. Value That Makes Sense Holiday budgets matter more than ever. Easter glamping at Pinewood Park delivers exceptional value compared to hotels or holiday cottages. Our fully-equipped pods mean you can self-cater easily, saving on restaurant bills. Many local attractions offer Easter holiday discounts too. And the memories you'll create? Absolutely priceless. 4. Nature's Easter Egg Hunt Spring awakens right outside your door. Easter coincides perfectly with nature's rebirth – wildflowers emerging, birds nesting, and woodlands coming alive. Children discover a natural playground that no video game can match. From spotting rabbits hopping through morning mist to identifying birdsong at dusk. These moments connect families in ways that busy everyday life rarely allows. 5. Something for Everyone Family harmony isn't always easy. But glamping bridges the gap between different holiday wishes. Adventure-seekers can hike the nearby North York Moors. Beach lovers can explore Scarborough's golden sands. History buffs can visit ancient castles and abbeys. And those who simply want to relax? The peaceful setting of Pinewood Park provides the perfect backdrop. Everyone wins. Make This Easter Special Easter memories stay with children forever. Will they remember another weekend at home... or their magical glamping adventure? Pinewood Park's Easter availability is limited and booking quickly. Secure your family's pod today and give them the gift of adventure, connection and joy this Easter. Because the best family stories always begin with "Remember that time we..."
