Great views from the site

  • Quiet site in the countryside with views of the Cleveland Hills
  • Half an hour's drive from the coast or the centre of Middlesbrough
  • Well-placed for walks in the North York Moors National Park
This is a fine spot for folk looking to get out on walks and bike rides, or in search of other outdoor activities, that’s for sure. In the countryside and only half an hour's drive from the coast, Southview Farm makes for a rather splendid base… The small and privately-owned North Yorkshire site is also three miles south of the market town of Stokesley and about half an hour's drive from the centre of Middlesbrough. The views from the site give something of a hint that the Cleveland Hills are nearby, with the huge expanse of the North York Moors National Park another option on the activities front. If you fancy a few lungfuls of sea air on one of your strolls, set forth for Saltburn-by-the-Sea – it’s about half an hour’s drive from here. Any dogs out there hopefully wagging tails at the idea of all this should be pleased to hear that they’re welcome to come along for a stay at Southview Farm. It’s also a place that allows outdoor cooks to have a go with their barbecues, although there are several places to eat, drink or pick up takeaways in Stokesley if you’d rather someone else did the honours.

What customers say

This is a quiet, well-maintained site with spacious pitches and stunning views. Visitors consistently praise the friendly and helpful staff, particularly Dave. Shower and toilet facilities are described as very clean, warm, and well-equipped. The site is a good base for walking and exploring the local area. Some minor points for improvement included occasional requests for more toilet/shower facilities when busy and clarification on waste disposal.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Spacious pitches, lovely views. It was not busy when we were there but it looked as if there was plenty of space between the pitches so you would not feel crowded.
Complete shower rooms.i.e. shower, toilet , sink in one room. There was plenty of space in them and lovely and warm.
We had no problem when we wanted to use them, but there are only two rooms ( plus two other toilets) so there might be a wait when full.
Dave was really helpful and friendly.
Great walking up on Lordstones.
I would recommend this site and we will definitely go again.

Disliked Nothing.

From the manager: we find that we have sufficient capacity for the size of site when we get busy and couldt justify the cost of building more with the income we recieve

Site is really well maintained toilets and showers are spotless

Local attractions

It’s likely you’ll be spending a fair bit of time out and about in the wilderness (or countryside, seaside, whatever else you’d like to call it) and with that comes some gorgeous wildlife and walking trails. Leven Valley Alpacas (20 minutes' drive) combines both – treks through an 11-acre farm with alpacas for company – while Butterfly World (25 minutes) is a rainforest with butterflies of all shapes, sizes and colours. As for those lengthier hikes, the trails at Roseberry Topping (15 minutes) will take you to the woods and a hilltop with views over Cleveland. Guisborough Forest (20 minutes) is just as adventurous, with a woodland cycling trail or hiking trails. There’s Saltburn-by-the-Sea (half an hour) when you’re craving a stroll along the seafront too… or a trip up the cliff tramway and a surfing session on the sandy beach. If you like your strolls a little more historic, you’ll have a monk’s cell and ruins of a medieval monastery to explore around the National Trust’s Mount Grace Priory (15 minutes) and at the National Trust’s Ormesbury Hall (20 minutes), an 18th-century mansion. Cleveland Ironstone Museum (35 minutes) is another historic place, with mine remains, 3D models and collections from the 19th century.
