Why choose The Hideaway at Baxby Manor

About the site

This is a special, peaceful and restful place, the kind of retreat from the stresses of daily life that is hard to find. It's ideal for keen walkers and cyclists, and close to Yorkshire's attractions, situated on the edge of the North York Moors National Park. Your setting is the woodland attached to a spectacular medieval manor - one that dates back to The Doomsday Book. This historic building is by the edge of Husthwaite village, a few miles from the market towns of Thirsk and Easingwold. This is the place for camping, campfires, and escaping to the countryside. Pitches are sheltered, level and spacious and many include 6 amp electric hook up for tents. There are areas reserved for adults and also areas where the whole family can stay - the best of both worlds, amongst a total of 37 grass pitches each allowing up to six people. The Hideaway has a strong environmental ethos that it maintains in all that it does. The site plays host to stunning wildlife and tranquil areas of unspoilt nature - it's a beautiful, natural environment. Glampers have a wide range of quirky and tempting options here, including dog free and dog friendly options. Dogs can stay in selected Hoglet Houses, which include real beds and hassle free shelter for those who want to enjoy some home comforts in the wild. If you love the magic of the countryside, you'll adore these pods. These include a round door and inside real beds along with quirky furniture and a cosy stove. The luxurious treehouse is beautifully secluded with views over the neighbouring moors. It sleeps six and is set among ancient trees, with fabulous features such as a hot tub and a secret slide to a hidden den... This is the perfect place to immerse in nature which is why there is a quiet policy after 10pm and it's asked music is only played through headphones. Sorry, dogs cannot stay in the treehouse.

Camping and glamping units are available from April until November, the treehouse is open all year. Pitches from £133/night for 2 people.

After a shortened camping trip and broken tent poles due to the weather earlier in the year, we opted for a Hoglet Hut and what a great experience. The huts were very clean and well catered with all utensils including glass wear and ceramic plates instead of our usual plastic. The beds were very comfy and it stayed dark and quiet in the morning for a mini lie in. Some extra lights were useful (that I had packed) although the fairy lights and others they provide gave it a lovely glow. It rained a little during our stay and the hut was great to seek shelter and cosy, with room for games and the fire an option with firewood provided. The site is quiet with lights on offer for beauty treatment, helicopter rides and the great pizza shack. The kids loved the churros. The bathrooms were very clean and maintained. The firepits were great for roasting marshmallows and the kettle for a cuppa. Communal fridge and freezer were very useful and a clean washing up room. There were walks and a park in short distance and other attractions a short drive away. Overall, we had a great stay and will be back. Would definitely recommend the Hoglet Huts. Tips. Take crocs/easy removable shoes for the bathroom to remove before entering rule. Take outside lights as the fairy lights didn't come on until about 11pm. Take your key everywhere to prevent locking yourself out of your hut and remove the latch! Feedback. Our 2 huts didn't have any outside open play area. Some did, which is a consideration for younger children not being able to see them playing. Tthe trees near the hut could have been cut back to access the hut more easily.

I love this place. Toilets, showers, potwash room are immaculate. Communal Fridge and freezer available. Convenient electric points on all pitches, which are all level, and grass cut. Fire pits at each pitch. Owner Benny on reception is really nice, and really helpful. Mini shop is well stocked. Pizza shack on site is fantastic with great pizzas and breakfast options. Guy in the pizza shack is also really nice. I'm coeliac and they accommodate GF options which are all great, which is a rarity for a lot of places so this site was perfect for me. Easily the best campsite I've ever been to. Amazing place, highly recommended.
