What customers say
A quiet, adult-only spot in the Yorkshire countryside. Friendly owners, clean facilities with hot showers, and horses! Pods are well-equipped. Great value for a peaceful getaway, though pitches can get a bit muddy when it's wet.

Perfect for adults with dogs who like a simple relaxed camp site.
Power optional grass site
Liked Really relaxed and peaceful site. We don’t like the busy noise of the large family campsites so this was perfect for us. Close to Scarborough and heading off for beautiful walks in North Yorkshire or along the coast.
Toilet and shower were clean and the water was hot. An essential when camping on cold and wet days.
