  • Peaceful touring pitches in the North York Moors National Park
  • Whitby 15 minutes' drive away; 25 minutes to Robin Hood's Bay
  • Adults-only site with dogs permitted; easy access from A171
Can’t decide between a countryside location or being close to the coast? Bag yourselves a good bit of both with a stay at Burnt House Caravan Park. This peaceful family-run park is in the North York Moors National Park, so it’s surrounded by gorgeous rural scenery and has easy access to moorland walks, relaxed bike rides and other activities including fishing at Scaling Reservoir (five minutes' drive away). You may like to ride on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway for a good taste of the landscapes or perhaps challenge yourself to a steep clamber up Roseberry Topping. Or how about that coast trip? The North Yorkshire coast is only about five miles from the site, and being close to the A171 means you’ll be able to zip along to the popular town of Whitby in about 15 minutes by car. Staithes, Runswick Bay and Robin Hood’s Bay are all within easy reach too. The touring pitches here are for adults only, but dogs are allowed as long as they’re kept on leads at all times. Barbecues are permitted, and you can retreat to the games room for some indoor time if the weather’s not looking so good. Other facilities on site include a launderette, a wifi service, a chemical disposal point and bathrooms with showers and toilets.

What customers say

This is a clean and peaceful site with friendly, helpful staff and well-maintained grounds. Guests appreciated the quiet atmosphere, lovely surroundings, and the leisure room with games. While some found the toilet and shower facilities dated, they were generally reported as clean and adequate. Some visitors noted issues with Wi-Fi strength, a lack of local amenities, and a perceived lack of dog-friendliness due to charges and limited exercise areas. The site's location offers good access to Whitby and the moors.

C H.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (maximum 7 metres)

Liked We pitched here to walk the coast section of Cleveland Way. The location of the campsite plus excellent local bus service made this very easy

Disliked Attitude of warden: the reception is open from 12-5pm. We arrived at 1pm and could not get him to respond to buzzer/bell. We had to phone owner who gave us the entry code. Consequently we had no idea where to take waste or recycling.
My husband told the warden there was no soap in the men's toilet block. His first response was that he had not started work yet (09:10 in the morning). He eventually sorted it out after 3 days

Ian D.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (maximum 7 metres)

Liked The quietness and tidiness of the site and the location was only 10 mins drive from Whitby

Disliked Could do with more signs pointing out where things are (e.g. chemical waste). It was on the map provided but still took a while to find as it was at the side of a static caravan

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (maximum 7 metres)

Liked Very friendly and welcoming staff. Well spaced out pitches . Hookup points and water tap on every pitch. Toilet block very clean and only a minute from the pitches. Security barrier at the entrance. Lovely site only stayed for one night but we will be back for a longer stay.

Steve W.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (maximum 7 metres)

Liked Tidy site, bit remote for what we hoped but was a late booking. Very clean. Also hit by storm Dave so a rough night as not much shelter from the elements but that was no ones fault.

Disliked Toilets very dated and cold, mens have just been 'renovated' new tiles on 2 walls!! Pitches were short, website says 7m max, my van 7.6m. I checked before booking and they said ok but leg drops at the rear so needed a gap meaning front sticking out further still. WiFi and signal terrible.

Local attractions

You’ll be well positioned for walks in the North York Moors National Park here – there are plenty to choose from, but if you need a bit of help a good place to start is Danby Lodge National Park Centre (15 minutes’ drive). The distinctive hill of Roseberry Topping (25 minutes) is a popular place to walk, as is the rocky area around The Wainstones (45 minutes). Elsewhere nearby you can go coarse fishing at Scaling Reservoir (five minutes' drive), ride the North Yorkshire Moors Railway from Grosmont station (10 minutes) or dip into the area's history at Rievaulx Abbey (50 minutes). The Museum of Victorian Science (10 minutes) is a good option on a damp day. The coast isn’t far off either, so you may like to set off for the beaches at Runswick Bay (10 minutes), Staithes (15 minutes) or Robin Hood’s Bay (25 minutes). Whitby (15 minutes) is another great option, for its abbey, Captain Cook Memorial Museum and 199 Steps as well as the beach.
