Marfit Head Farm Caravan and Campsite is a friendly site on a working farm in the North York Moors, just 15 minutes from Dalby Forest and ideal for walks around the beautiful Hole of Horcum. It's nicely located for trips to Pickering, Whitby and Goathland - made famous by Heartbeat. Dog and family friendly.

About the site

Looking out over pretty heather (which blooms a pretty purple at the right time of year), the farm is in the southern part of the national park and surrounded by great walking country. Ideal for families, little ones have a chance of meeting and interacting with the animals here! Stay on well manicured pitches with BBQs permitted and optional 16-Amp electric supplied. There are both grass and hardstandings, all generously sized and well laid out. Along with caravans and campervans, tents ranging up to large family tents are all welcome. Two dogs are welcome to join you, provided they are on a lead.

Open from 29 April to 5 November

Site rules and policies

You must please come to the farmhouse on your arrival for your pitch directions.

All our pitches are marked out and allocated. If you do pitch without checking in then we reserve the right to ask you to move your unit.

Check in time is after 12:30 lunch time.

Departure is before noon.

Early arrivals and late departures may be available at request.

We are high on the beautiful North Yorkshire Moors approx 900 feet above sea level and as such we can catch the colder weather and wind. If you are visiting in winter months please check we do not have snow before you set off.

We recommended bringing hard ground rock pegs for pitching.

We are a working dairy farm so please make sure all children are supervised, no person is allowed to enter the farm area or buildings.

Sorry, no campfires.

Things to do on site and in the Pickering area

Guests can pop into the milking parlour during the afternoon's milking and watch the process, asking questions and getting a taste for life on a farm.

Heartbeat fans should head straight to Goathland, which is an easy 10 minute drive away and a bit further north is the coastline at Whitby, with all its seaside fun.

To the south, you can get up some speed on mountain bike routes in Dalby Forest and then drop into Pickering to replace some of those calories at a delicious local chocolate shop.
