High Paradise Farm

Μου άρεσε: Lovely camping field with plenty of space. Facilities are basic but clean. The kids loved meeting the farm dogs, especially Pumpkin who became a firm favourite. The owner was super friendly and helpful, giving us ideas for biking routes. Location is fantastic for walking and biking and the local area is very picturesque. The on site cafe is also great

Μου άρεσε: Loved how quiet it was, the pitches are fantastic, a new solid picnic bench and big fire pit by each one. Lovely cafe and very popular, alot busier than I'd expect for the location. The on site dogs are great, pumpkin was a family favourite! Will definitely be returning at some point (although we like to try new sites alot)

Δεν μου άρεσε: 1 road in is incredibly bumpy, took 10minutes to get along, lesson learnt and used the other road the rest of the time. Not really a complaint mind. Electric would be ideal, to keep a fridge running. But it's not essential and we knew before arriving.

Μου άρεσε: Great plots with plenty of space, a picnic bench and fire pit. We were able to get a plot right next to our friends and had a great 3 nights. There was a compostable toilet close by and then flushable toilets a short walk away. Only one shower but you never had to wait that long for it or for the washing up area, and the water was good and hot! There's a tea room on site and sheep and horses for the kids to look at.

Δεν μου άρεσε: Nothing really, it was a lovely site with friendly owners. My only minor dislike was it was tricky to wash little children's hands after the toilet as the washing up sinks were high up.

Μου άρεσε: It's such a picturesque yet practical site - pitching up amongst the trees meant we were very sheltered on a particularly windy weekend. We really did appreciate the contact from the owner on our day of arrival, keeping us up to date with the damage caused by Storm Lilian - and were impressed it was all sorted and back to normal by the time we got there. The picnic table and fire pit with each pitch was particularly welcome - such a good idea and so useful and enjoyable. The location is fantastic. Remote enough to feel wild, yet close enough to Thirsk for practicalities (for us, we needed somewhere close by to charge our car). And we loved that it was such a convenient place for walking routes - and that the HPF website details a variety of them so well. And it was lovely on our last morning, after packing up, to be able to have a butty and a cuppa at the tea room. I love a good tea room and it's such a charming and friendly place, filled with other people just appreciating the outdoors. A wonderful atmosphere.

Δεν μου άρεσε: I didn't realise from what I read in advance just how basic and open the sanitation facilities would be. It wasn't a problem for us, given that we've been to plenty far more basic campsites than this, but I suppose this is just a note of awareness to readers to expect functional but very basic facilities. (And for future note, HPF team: if you redo the toilet block at any point in the future, could you consider creating more space between the loos and the door please. At the moment the leg room between the loo and the door is like a Ryanair flight, making it rather difficult to use.)

Μου άρεσε: We loved the small site with the trees, and the lovely touches of the picnic tables and fire pits. It had a lovely wild feel to it. It's also totally safe to let the kids roam a bit. Really well located close to Thirsk, Sutton Bank and Helmsley

Δεν μου άρεσε: More showers would be great, but this didn't compromise our stay at all. The info is really clear.

Μου άρεσε: The location was amazing. Plenty of space between pitches which all had their own picnic table and fire pit. Facilities were good and clean. Liked that there was a family area and solo traveller/adult side. Extra thanks to Ginny for providing some batteries that I’d forgotten! Very prompt when responding to queries. Amazing clear skies at night.
