Pitch up in Pickering at Oak Tree Farm Park to be in a prime place for pottering around some of the best parts of North Yorkshire… villages, markets, Dalby Forest and first-rate walking and cycling routes are all close by. Oak Tree Farm is a small and welcoming site on a working farm with friendly free-range hens and a couple of pigs and goats (which the kids are welcome to interact with). Bags of feed are available to buy for a small cost if you'd like to feed the farm animals, such as goats and alpacas. For your own feeding and watering, grab the fresh coffee that's available to takeaway on weekends and during school holidays between 8.30am and 10am. The farm has a toilet block, showers and dishwashing facilities: a £1 honesty box contribution is used for the showers. Oak Tree Farm Park welcomes families and couples of all ages, but doesn't accept group bookings or group multiple bookings.

What customers say

A small, friendly, peaceful campsite with welcoming owners & spacious pitches. Loved the farm animals & clean showers. Great base for exploring Pickering & the Yorkshire Moors. Minor notes: arrival signage could be better, and bathroom tidiness varies.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Large pitches, great showers, convenient location in lovely area, the animals!

The best campsite we’ve stayed on. Set in a lovely location next to a working farm. Facilities were excellent, and having the animals on site kept the kids extremely well entertained.
A couple of miles from Pickering for any supplies you might need, and only about 1/2 an hour or so away from Whitby.

FHU grass campsite

Liked Well spaced out level pitches in a countryside setting that was lovely and quiet overnight. Adjacent paddocks housed alpaca, pigs and goats which were enjoyable to watch. Friendly owners. Shower/toilet and washing up blocks were easily accessible and kept clean.

Claire G.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked I liked the pitch sizes, the location and quietness of the campsite. I also loved the ducks roaming about.

I also enjoyed having a fire pit and chopped wood available.

The site owner was on hand 24/7

The site is idyllic and so close to Pickering, and all the amenities and attractions.

The toilets are close to the main field so it’s not a long treck. But as the electrics weren’t working you certainly need a torch.

Had the electric been working properly and had there been separate toilets I would
Recommend to a friend and possibly return. Because of those issues I’d be unlikely to return.

Disliked I wasn’t happy as the electrics kept going off in the toilets and shower blocks. Therefore no lights or hot water.

The owner didn’t get a qualified electrician out immediately and over the days we were staying there was a problem multiple times per day/night with the hot water and lights.

I also wasn’t sure on the honesty box system for the showers. 1- because lights and hot water were hit and miss. 2- this cost should ideally be covered in the fee for the pitch.


The shower and toilet were separate and in the same room. There were 4 shower/toilet cubicles, which were great in a way as there was plenty of room for clothes and towels etc. unfortunately in the morning one of the shower cubicles was being cleaned while 3 were taken with people showering and there was a queue of people were waiting for the toilet.

I allowed 2 children in to use the toilet before I could get my shower.

It would be fab if they could build just one stand alone toilet/sink that can be used without having to wait for someone to finish their shower.
