What customers say
A tidy, friendly site in a top spot for exploring. Showers & bar get a thumbs up, dog field's a winner. A few found pitches a bit snug or wonky, and the electric meter was a bugbear. Bar hours were a bit hit-and-miss for some. Still, great value, and many keen to return!
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Great site, great facilities and perfect for a trip into Whitby centre
Power optional gravel caravan site
Liked Great site within close proximity to Whitby. Easy to find and an awesome pub (Hare and Hounds) within a 10 minute walk.
Toilets and facilities on site were good.
Disliked Drains smell in the toilet block. Nothing major but noticeable.

Lovely place to stay very close to a bus stop and pub.
Power optional gravel and concrete motorhome site
Liked Lovely site nice and quiet with very friendly staff.
Disliked The electric meter was a real pain hard to judge how much you would need. Ended up running out in the middle of the night with no way of topping up so was very cold. Would be better if you could pay for your electric at the end of your stay like on other sites.

Liked A lovely site especially for a November stay.
