  • 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

A ripper spot! Clean, quiet, and top-notch location with awesome views. Easy check-in via text and friendly owners. Perfect for trekkers and cyclists with the Cinder Track, Whitby, and Robin Hood's Bay close by. Buses handy too. Great value for a peaceful getaway, though no loos or showers and a bit of road noise now and then.

Unpowered gravel caravan site

Liked Nothing

Disliked We weren’t given our pitch number until almost 9pm. Then there was an awning across it. We had to squeeze in between other vans. People were arriving with no information. The owners were impossible to contact. I have asked for a refund but they haven’t responded

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hilarious review from someone clearly on the grift.

As our latest message to you shows, the pitch number was sent to you at 12:46pm. I have no idea why you didn't receive it until so late, but from the correspondence we've had with you I aren't convinced by the story at all.

Everyone arrived with the information they needed but you caused problems by taking someone else's pitch. You say we were impossible to contact and we haven't responded; neither of these claims are true.

You will absolutely not be receiving a refund because you caused us problems and we're delighted you won't be staying with us again.

Unpowered gravel caravan site

Liked Great location as equidistant between Whitby and Robin Hood's bay. Adjacent to the Cinder track which takes you off-road into both towns. Superb views over the valley towards Whitby. Tidy site with essential facilities. Very helpful owner in assisting with a last-minute change of booking.

Disliked No means to recycle.

Unpowered gravel caravan site

Liked Incredible views and within easy cycling of both Whitby and Robin Hood’s Bay. Bike hire available by appointment just yards from the campsite if you didn’t bring your own. The Cinder Track is an off-road route that follows a disused railway track and is perfect for walks or cycling and (when in season) blackberry picking.
Site offers basic amenities and a relaxed atmosphere. I booked for two nights and stayed for four. Will return!

Disliked No facility to recycle but maybe that’s the council.

Unpowered gravel caravan site

Liked In good reach of cycle track to Whitby and other areas.

Disliked Hadn't realised there were no facilities! My van is tiny and we have no toilet/shower! So not ideal. Entirely my fault, as rushed the booking. But it did spoil our stay.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for your - somewhat bizarre - review. Sorry to read that you spoilt your own stay by not making sure our site had the facilities you require.

5/10 for your reading skills.

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.
