Hidden in a beautiful valley full of wildlife and walks our caravan offers you the chance to unwind and relax with nature.With limited mobile service and no WiFi you can unplug from the outside world and hideaway. It really is a place where time stands still. Take a gentle stroll alongside the babbling beck into Thornton dale for an ice cream or bring your walking boots and explore Dalby Forest at your leisure. At night our dark skies are perfect for those who like to star gaze and relax in peace.
Our caravan has an open plan kitchen, dining area and cosy living room. The kitchen has an oven, microwave, fridge and everything you would need for home-cooking.
We offer a welcome pack on the first day of your arrival so as soon as you arrive you can put your feet up and the kettle on. Our welcome pack includes farmhouse bread, locally sourced sausages and bacon, black pudding, mushrooms, baked beans, tomatoes, fresh eggs laid by our own hens, fresh fruit juice, tea, coffee, milk, sugar, cake and a box of chocolates. There is parking directly outside the caravan and a BBQ for your use with a complimentary bag of logs.

The perfect place to switch off from the outside world, offering its own outside space where our runner ducks paddle in the stream close by. Our fields are home to our farm animals and our skies on a morning are filled the most incredible dawn chorus. Situated in a stunning valley on our working farm, it doesn’t get any closer than back to nature. Switch off, unwind and relax. We’ve said it before and we will say it again, it really is the place where time stands still. With a double bed in one room and two twin beds in another room we offer stays for adults or children over the age of 14. Our caravan is situated on the edge of our campsite, although we welcome families onto our site we do not accept large groups and have a strict low noise rules after 10pm so all our guests and wildlife have a peaceful and relaxing stay

Local attractions
Bring your walking boots or bikes along for outings in Dalby Forest, just to the north of the site, or see it all from above as you tackle the treetop course at Go Ape (10 minutes’ drive). Back down at ground level, kids can seek out evidence of the Gruffalo, find one of the play areas or get lost in the dry stone wall maze.
A 10-minute drive from the farm gets you to Pickering, where you can explore the Beck Isle Museum and Pickering Castle before boarding a heritage train for a scenic trip on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway. For train travel on a smaller scale stop by at Cedarbarn Farm Shop (five minutes) for a tour of the fruit fields on the miniature railway.
Head in the opposite direction and you’ll get to the Yorkshire coastline with a drive of half an hour or so. Go due east for a day on the sands in Scarborough or head a little more north to get to atmospheric Whitby and Robin Hood’s Bay.
