A fantastic retreat
Camping pod
Liked Lovely small site in a great location- good walks and pub a 20 min stroll. Cayton Bay and Filey a short drive.
Pod was comfortable and had everything we needed - toaster/ kettle/ microwave and a heater. There was a barbecue outside and chairs and a table on the patio. It looked out onto countryside and felt private. There were lovely horses in the fields and yard. We will definitely return.
