  • Peaceful, dog-friendly site within the North York Moors National Park
  • Five minutes’ drive from Whitby's seaside, abbey and museums
  • Barbecues permitted on site and cycle hire nearby
Pitch up in the North York Moors National Park at Long Meadow Farm and the pretty views will have you itching to get out for explores of both coast and countryside. There are plenty of walks in the surrounds for all abilities at this family- and dog-friendly site, five minutes’ drive from the sea at Whitby, with wildlife to keep an eye out for as you amble. If you prefer to trundle on wheels, cycle hire is available over the road from Long Meadow. After a day well spent navigating the local area, head back to the park for some refuelling – there’s a supermarket in Whitby for supplies and barbecues are permitted on site, so grab anything that can be grilled and get ready to tuck in. If your roams have you tired out and you’re not up to cooking, a couple of pubs serving meals are within walking distance, so you can stop in for a quick refreshment before hitting the hay. Please note that this site does not have toilet or shower facilities.

What customers say

This clean, tidy park gets the tick for its awesome spot, close to Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay by bike or foot, plus a bus stop nearby. Reviewers love the chill vibe, great views and easy check-in. Sites are good, though some found them a bit close. Has the basics, but no loos or showers noted by some.

Liked Great location but we won’t return due to reasons below.

Disliked Very small pitches and far too close together. First time using pitch up we always use CAMC who adhere to strict fire safety regulation distance between. We felt these pitches were much closer than CAMC. There was nowhere else to park the car to gain more space without using a second pitch. See the photo which shows how close. There was absolutely no room for an awning not even a porch one and only just enough room for water and waste between next doors car and our caravan. Such a shame so many pitches crammed in on the size of a standard 5/6 pitch site as it would be lovely site with much less.

Liked Lovely little dog friendly site, 4 miles from Whitby with a bus stop over the road. Great spacious pitches, with a view of Whitby in the distance.

No shower facilities but perfect for a short stay.

Owners very helpful & welcoming.

Liked A fantastic location and lovely site.
It is well looked after with very well spaced plots. Easy walking to Whitby & Robin Hood’s bay via the cinder track or the beautiful coastal path. We will definitely be back. Thank you 😊

Powered gravel caravan site

Liked Very good site near to local facilities can walk to Whiby

Disliked No other facilities shower or toilet block but this made very clear when you book.
The big bush on the entrance could do with a trim as with wide units it does catch the caravan especially with wide vans.

Local attractions

If you don’t spot any animals scampering about the North York Moors while staying at this site, set off to the SEA LIFE Scarborough aquarium and eye up some underwater creatures instead. The town also has a castle to check out, along with a sandy beach (half an hour's drive). Stretches of coast closer by include Robin Hood's Bay (five minutes), which is also home to a fab old fishing village, and strolls along the seaside at Whitby’s harbour are also a satisfying way to while away your time. Head to this town – said to be the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s spooky novel Dracula – to have a gander at the atmospheric abbey as well. If you’re keen on seeing the scenery of the nearby national park but not on two feet, make tracks to the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, which leaves from Whitby and chugs along for 18 miles with views of Newtondale’s geological formations and Fen Bog’s nature reserve. Kids can’t keep still? Tire them out at Go Ape Dalby (35 minutes), a treetop adventure park with all sorts of activities available, or take them to Alpamare waterpark (25 minutes) to whoosh down the slides and float in the pools.
