  • Gated dog-friendly site on a farm five minutes’ drive from Pickering
  • North York Moors National Park five minutes’ drive; Whitby 35 minutes
  • Playful farmyard animals and picnic tables on site
On the outskirts of the market town of Pickering (five minutes’ drive or a 35-minute walk), Brigham Park Farm is a small, family-friendly site on a working farm. There are many things to commend it, not least its location: staying here puts you within an hour of several North Yorkshire attractions – from North York Moors National Park (five minutes) and the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (25 minutes), to a stretch of coastline with sandy expanses like Scarborough (35 minutes) and wildlife sanctuaries like RSPB Bempton Cliffs (55 minutes). Having established that there’ll be plenty to keep you and the brood (and the dog, who’s welcome here) occupied, you might be interested to know what’s on site. You’ll be sharing the grounds with assorted livestock, including inquisitive goats, which the children might enjoy feeding (food is available on request). There’s lots of room for children to chase each other and play tag or kick a ball around – but please ensure they keep to the area where there are no pitches. And if you’re concerned about security, it might relieve your worries to know that the premises are secure and gated. Amenities include a modern and well-maintained toilet and shower block and an outdoor area with picnic tables. Each pitch has a drinking water point. Don’t fancy looking after the campfire or the barbecue? The nearest pub (just over a five-minute walk away) runs themed nights, including Curry Thursdays and Fish Fridays, plus a Sunday carvery.

What customers say

Grand spot for families, with lovely owners & lots of animals kids adore. Spacious pitches with EHU. Facilities mostly clean, though showers a bit pokey. Secure and safe, loads of room for kids. Near attractions and pubs. Some road noise & pitches can get damp.

Electric optional grass campervan or tent pitch

Liked We had a lovely stay at this campsite! It’s incredibly child-friendly, with plenty of space for kids to play safely. The site feels very secure, which gave us great peace of mind throughout our stay. One of the highlights was definitely the animals around the site, especially the friendly goats that wandered freely in the evenings, which the kids absolutely loved. It added such a charming, peaceful touch to the experience. Highly recommended for families looking for a relaxed and safe getaway

Electric optional grass campervan or tent pitch

Liked What's not to like about this site. The owners were really friendly and approachable, facilities are well kept, onsite vending machine for any snacks. We went with family and friends which the owners accompanied us next to eachother. Paid £10 on arrival for an early check in. Being on a working farm, our 5 year old daughter and niece loved seeing the pigs, horses, dogs and the goats that were occasionally let out to roam throughout the site. A burning bin was provided for us with local wood supplied at a small fee. 30-40 minutes away from the coasts of Scarborough, Filey and Whitby. A lot of care has gone into the site, electric and water supply available at every pitch.
Signal can be patchy but isn't that what camping is about? No distractions, just making memories with loved ones.

Disliked Only one dislike I can think of is that we didn't stay here for longer

Local attractions

From Pickering you can catch the North Yorkshire Moors Railway for a heritage train ride through the distinctive moorland landscape. Disembark at Goathland (which might look familiar if you’ve seen the first Harry Potter film) or ride all the way to the Whitby terminus. Flamingo Land Resort (10 minutes’ drive) has thrill rides like multi-looped roller coasters and vertiginous drop towers, plus family-friendly attractions like tractor rides and a soft-play area in the shape of a pirate ship. On hot days, the kids might be drawn to the water-play zone, and there’s also a zoo with penguins, lemurs and other animals. Whitby (35 minutes) is known for the hilltop remains of a 14th-century abbey, which is said to have inspired Bram Stoker to write Dracula. After visiting the house where Captain James Cook (of South Pacific exploration fame) lived as a young man (now a museum), make your way to the Whalebone Arch for views over the harbour.
