  • Quiet, pretty site with local attractions a short trip away
  • Family-oriented site welcoming families of all ages or couples
  • Unique accommodation close to the North Yorkshire coast
Whether you’re looking for a short break in a tent, a long weekend in a caravan or very magical and unique family holiday in either our Shire House, Le Petit Chateau, Ground Keeper’s Cottage or and shepherds hut, we are sure to have something suitable for you. The family oriented site welcomes families of all ages or couples wanting to enjoy a quiet, pretty site with local attractions no more than a short trip away. We have a variety of farm animal residents, including peacocks and free-range chickens, which can be enjoyed by everyone that stays with us. This idyllic spot is placed perfectly from the hustle and bustle of tourist based Whitby, yet can accommodate up to 5 hook-ups and up to 10 tents at a time, along with 10 hardstanding pitches for caravans (including seasonal pitches ) and Le Petit Chateau which houses up to 8 people along with our Shire House which can accommodate up to 6 people and our Ground Keeper’s Cottage which can accommodate up to 6 people for a week’s break. We look forward to you staying with us soon! Please note: We do not allow dogs inside any of our accommodations or on our site.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: Toilet facilities clean and tidy

Disliked: Didn't really see anybody the hard standing pitches were poor two plug in s only 1 worked 2 taps only 1 worked. Containers in front off us. It was a quick stop over for us. The site was just not for us..little to scruffy and not our cuppa tea. Looks nothing like how pitch up . Potch it.. Value for money..very expensive.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: Great location, very quiet and clean!

Disliked: It did feel like the touring site was a bit of an after thought to the wedding venue in that there wasn't an obvious reception or out of hours contact, so one van that turned up late pitched less than 5m away from ours even when the site was completely empty.
