About the site

Perched above Saltwick Bay, this site is a scenic coastal base just a 20 minute walk from Whitby with direct access to the Cleveland Way Coast Path. Whether you're pitching up with a tourer or staying in a glamping pod with a private hot tub, the park offers a relaxed stay with sea views and plenty of family friendly facilities. Enjoy a breakfast bap or lunch at the Jet Bar and Bistro, while the beer garden is the ideal place to sit back with a refreshing drink. Little ones can burn off energy at the nautical-themed play park, while older children can tackle the climbing ropes and structures. There is a range of electric grass pitches available, all with a 16 amp hook up. Standard pitches cater for units up to 6.5m, suitable for roof tents, caravans, small campervans and motorhomes, while larger pitches with awning space accommodate units up to 8m. There are also sea view grass pitches, including larger pitches with awning space. Eight electric hardstanding pitches are available on a tarmac base, suitable for units up to 8m and located close to the main facilities. For those after extra comfort, the ensuite glamping pods sleep either two or four guests and come complete with private verandas, hot tubs, fully-equipped kitchens, cosy living areas, heating, bedding, and WiFi. The Ensuite Studio Suite Glamping Cabin sleeps four, featuring a mezzanine sleeping area and a double bedroom with sliding doors. Inside, there is an open-plan living area with a smart TV and a kitchen with an oven, grill, fridge/freezer, four burner hob, and a microwave. Outside, there is a gated veranda with a hot tub. There are also holiday homes for a home-from-home feel. The park is perfectly placed for exploring the Yorkshire coastline and the scenic North York Moors, with plenty of walking and cycling routes nearby. Around 25 minutes away, Grosmont is home to the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, where you can hop aboard a steam train ride through the countryside to Pickering. Dogs are welcome on the pitches, and there's a handy doggy wash for cleaning those muddy paws. BBQs are allowed, provided they are raised off the ground. Campfires are not permitted.
