  • Basic campsite adjoining a pub near Pickering in North Yorkshire
  • A 20-minute drive to Flamingo Land Resort; 40 to the beach at Whitby
  • All-day catering and brewery tours available at the pub
Like the sound of wild camping within staggering distance of a brew-pub? Pick yourself a pitch at The New Inn, a campsite in the North Yorkshire village of Cropton, on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors. Back to basics this campsite may be, with simple grass pitches sheltered by trees, but there are a fair few advantages thrown in to make life easy for you. For starters, there’s no need to worry about getting the stove going first thing in the morning, as breakfasts are available in the adjoining pub – what better way to start your day than with a full English and a decent cup of coffee or tea? And it's not just breakfast – delicious home-cooked dishes are served throughout the day (although if you prefer the self-catering route, barbecues are allowed on the pitches). You can also sample beers brewed at the bottom of the pub garden – tours of the brewery can be arranged with the owners on arrival at the site. Please note that facilities on site are fairly minimal – there are toilets and running water but no power, so bring torches with you from home so you can find the way back to your pitch from the pub at night.

What customers say

Basic, no-frills site by The New Inn pub, known for good food, local brews, and a peaceful vibe. Clean but simple facilities (no showers). Friendly staff, well-sheltered, and a great base for the North York Moors. Good value and a relaxed atmosphere, despite occasional noise reports.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked We stayed here in our campervan and couldn’t have asked for better. We were a bit concerned about the weather and potentially sinking in the rain, but they were brilliant and let us stay in the car park instead, which took all the stress away.

Every member of staff we spoke to was genuinely friendly and welcoming. The evening meal was amazing and breakfast the next morning was outstanding, honestly couldn’t fault any of it.

Such a great experience from start to finish. Would absolutely stay again.

Liked Dat de camping nog open was

Disliked Toilet gebouw. De water aansluiting van de urinoirs waren afgesloten. Geen warm water. Verlichting in het toilet gebouw was matig. (Niet voldoende om je te scheren bv) Maar ja, met koud water scheren is ook niet fijn.

Liked I stayed over one night for the beer festival. What a great night. Good beer, good food and great bands. The aggregate at the entrance to the camping field has made a big difference.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Pub is great, didn't see much of it as the beer festival downstairs took up all our time and was amazing, bands were great, staff were lovely, shame we only did 1 night, wasn't much around but knew that before we booked and didn't bother us, was a great night to spend for our belated anniversary. Definitely going back next year for the festival and hopefully a summer one if they put it on

My facilities/activities review was divided - 3 for facilities, 10 for activities so had to go half way

Disliked Toilets for camping were 2 portaloo's which didn't seem maintained, 1 didn't flush properly, but was clean non the less, will be looking at a tent toilet for next time though just incase

Local attractions

Camping at The New Inn puts you in prime position for exploring the North Yorkshire Moors on two legs or two wheels. You could even try travelling under steam, as trains on the vintage North Yorkshire Moors Railway leave from Pickering (10 minutes’ drive) and stop at Goathland (half an hour – and as seen in the Harry Potter films) on their way to the East Yorkshire coast. This is also a great base for families, as the thrill rides and animal encounters of Flamingo Land Resort (20 minutes) should easily keep everybody entertained all day. To run off any excess energy, spend a day on the high ropes and Segway trails at Go Ape Dalby (25 minutes), or let the kids loose on the beach at Whitby (40 minutes) or Scarborough (45 minutes). To add some culture into the mix, visit the Gothic-era minster and see how the Vikings lived at JORVIK Viking Centre in historic York (45 minutes), or mug up on World War II events at Eden Camp Modern History Museum (20 minutes). Closer to base, Pickering Castle (10 minutes) offers up exhibitions in the chapel along with wonderful views over the moors.
