Fox Covert Farm is a small-scale farm site set in the gorgeous Yorkshire Wolds. This secluded spot is a couple of miles from the small village of Huggate, where there is a pub, a post office, a tea rooms and a traditional Yorkshire pub. This family-run site is an excellent option for wild escapes: you might spot hares, foxes, badgers and roe deer in the surrounding fields and woodlands. Birdlife is plentiful too, with buzzards, red kites and nesting lapwings commonly spotted at various times of year. Keen walkers will thrive in this rural area, as the Wolds Way, Minster Way and Chalkland Way trails are all within close proximity. The area is very popular with cyclists too, and handily Fox Covert Farm has provision for secure bike storage if required. Other highlights in the surrounding area include coastal resorts like Bridlington (35 minutes' drive), the magnificent grounds of Castle Howards (40 minutes) and the ancient cathedral city of York (45 minutes). Fox Covert Farm is a laidback site that welcomes dogs throughout the camping season (on leads, please). Barbecues are also welcome here (as long as they're clear of the ground).
