Townend Farm

Liked A very passionate host awaits to welcome you, very friendly and informative. Lovely grass field with level hardstanding, water and electric on your own pitch. The site is ideally situated on the X4 bus route so you can travel to Whitby or Middlesbrough for a capped charge of £3. You can also purchase a hop on hop off so you can visit intermediate stops for just over a tenner. The bustop is opposite the campsite and always on time. They run approx every half hour. Across the road from the site is a real ale pub that serves great food at very reasonable prices for both food and drink.The site has the benefit of being adult only.

Disliked A bit of a walk to the chemical disposal point but not a big problem

Liked Location was perfect for getting to coastal towns and villages.
All pitches were fully serviced and we had 5g mobile service on EE and Vodafone so video streaming not a problem.
Pub across the road was excellent. Sunday lunch was the best I've had in years and was just £15.95. The staff were great and they even sold Caffreys 😋
Even a pizza takeaway across the road.
This site is a little gem. Very small which is what we like. The owner was very friendly and directed us to a small beach further up the coast called Skinningrove where we could take our two dogs which was perfect. Just an hours drive to Durham which is a nice day out.
Will definitely be visiting again when we choose to travel to the North Yorkshire coast.

Disliked Little bit of a walk to elsen point but we knew that and with a trolley provided it's no big deal, don't let that put you off.

Liked Lovely quiet site, great views and just close enough to go one way to Saltburn or the other way to Whitby which are lovely destinations. The hosts can’t do enough for you . Very considerate and great value. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Liked Excellent location for exploring the area. The journey was all motorways and A roads, so no thin winding roads to worry about. We had already been given our pitch number via email and asked to telephone on arrival and Julie would come over to welcome us. Which is exactly what happened. She explained where things were and told us about the local beaches, from Redcar down to Whitby, (Saltburn-by-the-sea and Runswick bay were both very pretty) also the bus services that would take you to them. She was absolutely delightful. Very friendly, very helpful and very welcoming.
The pub, literally across the road from the site was lovely and welcoming. The food was very good too.
The site had level hard standing fully serviced pitches, with plenty of space around. There were also a couple of picnic tables that you could use if you wanted, on the large grassed area in front of the pitches. The owners also provide a small trolley on each pitch if you need it, when taking your cassette toilet to the elsan point. Although the site is on the A174, there was very little noise and the road was never very busy and very quiet at night.
If you are happy using your own on board facilities then this is the ideal place to stay and very cost effective compared with many other sites in the Whitby area. All in all an excellent site and we will return.

Liked Wow!! What a beautiful site!! Super easy entry, very friendly owner who can’t do enough to make you feel more welcome.
I read a review on CL booking website saying this owner was unfriendly….absolute garbage! Can’t wait to come back here…we even had breakfast in the B&B which was delicious! Great knowledge of the local area as in where to go and how to get there etc. Stunning views and super quiet…what more could anyone ask for.
A very peaceful and relaxing stay.

Thank you to everyone. Looking forward to seeing you all again soon.
