  • Well-maintained pitches behind a friendly rural pub in Yedingham
  • Castle Howard, Flamingo Land and beaches within a half-hour drive
  • Beer garden, playground, river fishing and home-cooked meals
Pitching up by a pub – that’s always a fine idea. Settle in for a tasty dinner, and as many drinks as you wish, then simply stroll across the garden to get to your bed without any worries over who’s going to drive. And it’s an even finer idea if the pub in question is a cosy, friendly place like the Providence Inn in the village of Yedingham, around a 15-minute drive from Malton. There’s a cheery Yorkshire welcome for all guests here, be they families, groups, couples or single travellers – the folk on site just request that all visitors respect each other (and the neighbours) by keeping the hubbub down after midnight. (Please do note that there is likely to be a bit of noise from the pub/beer garden in the evenings though – such is the way with pubs…) Life here is pretty relaxed and informal – guests can pick their pitches, and are welcome to light up barbecues or build fires in firepits (as long as they're kept off the grass). Along with basic bathroom facilities (cleaned twice daily), there’s access to the River Derwent for those who’ve brought along a fishing licence and asked permission. Pike are the most likely catch, but there have been sightings of other slippery species around here too. And so to dinner… home-cooked food is served seven days a week in the pub, and it gets a thumbs up from the locals, who have been known to drive a considerable number of miles to get their dinner here. There’s a good-sized beer garden for alfresco drinks on fine days, and a generous play area to keep kids entertained while the grownups nurse their drinks nearby.

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked: The providence Inn is honestly such a lovely little place. The facilities are lovely and clean, the staff are amazing. There is a pub literally next to the pitch and it's amazing, with thr most delicious home cooked food. Atmosphere was 10/10 the locals were so friendly and welcoming, there is also a little park for kids which is brilliant. We travelled with a 12month old and he loved it! We would 100% be back thank you.

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked: Lovely and quiet at night for the most of our stay. Owners of the pub were lovely. The park is a really good one my children absolutely loved it! Definitely worth the money!

Disliked: The last night of our stay there was inconsiderate people having their engines running a long time late and talking and laughing late into the night. This is not the campsites issue though just other people unfortunately. If I was to be picky I would say there should really be another ladies toilet as there is only 1 and 2 males.

From the manager: Thank you for your review. There is also a unisex shower and toilet at the side of the shower block if you were to visit again

Really good site, plenty of space in the field. Great family atmosphere.…

Local attractions

To work up an appetite for dinner, drive north for about 15 minutes to the North York Moors National Park, head west for the Howardian Hills (25 minutes) or make a break for the beaches and coast path around Filey and Scarborough (both about half an hour away) or Whitby (45 minutes). A bit of history as you roam? Stop in at Castle Howard (25 minutes) to stroll through the elegant gardens, visit the stunning stately home and seek out the secret island. Swish Scampston Hall (10 minutes) is also worth a stop, and there’s more recent history on display among the 20th-century exhibits at Eden Camp history museum (15 minutes). For more rural pursuits, join the pretty pink birds at Flamingo Land (20 minutes) or puff through the countryside on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway from Pickering (15 minutes). When you fancy a change of scenery, head to York (45 minutes) for a day of visits to the minster, the city walls, the Jorvik Viking Centre, the railway museum, the chocolate museum…
