About the site

A family friendly campsite with stunning countryside views over the Vale of Pickering. The rural location is great for those wanting scenic walking routes, with the Yorkshire Dales 15 minutes away and Scarborough within a 20 minute drive! The small site is home to only four tent camping pitches, each measuring 6m x 6m. The pitches allow up to six guests each, with two including a 6 amp electric hook up. If you want to leave the tent pegs at home, opt for a cosy shepherd's hut. Sleeping up to four, the huts come fully furnished with a double bed, pull out sofa bed and bedding. For cooking, there is an equipped kitchen with a microwave, fridge, kettle and toaster. To keep you warm, whatever the weather, there is a wood burning stove, plus a TV for entertainment. Shared campsite facilities are also only a short walk away. The site is set on a working farm, so remember to say hello to the onsite farm animals, including cows and chickens! Dogs are allowed onsite, but please keep them on the lead at all times due to the animals. Evenings can be spent enjoying a BBQ or fire pit, just please ensure these are raised from the ground.

Open from the 30th March through to the 16th September for grass pitches and 30th September for Shepherds hut.

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesSep 2025

Pitches are well spaced out, easy to peg tent in. Bathroom facilities are clean and modern. It is on a hilltop so you are exposed to the wind a little, but a good tent will withstand the elements!

Absolutely stunning campsite!

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2025

A site with breath-taking views. The owner was very helpful and friendly. The site itself is perfect for access to all of the east coast, without being surrounded by children. Dog friendly. It is a working farm, and so the flies and the dirt that is trodden into the toilets were the only let downs. A fly lamp would be helpful, but I know that they can't be eradicated. The showers unfortunately were cold on the second day we were there. Overall, it was a lovely stay. The facilities are modern and a lot nicer than other places I have been to!
