Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: We took a spontaneous day trip to Whitby, and decided to make a weekend of it. This campsite had plenty of spaces despite it being a last minute booking on a busy bank holiday. It was fantastic, and reasonably priced. Wonderful central location with beautiful views on a massive spacious, pretty much level site. We’ll definitely keep an eye out for dates this campsite ‘pops up’ in future.

Local attractions

Not quite done with seaside days just yet? Make the 35-minute drive to Scarborough, farther south on the Yorkshire coast, where – as well as more sandy stretches – guests can explore the Scarborough Fair Collection, get adrenaline pumping at Luna Park, wander about the Italian gardens, and spy out the marine species at Sea Life Sanctuary. Turn away from the sea, then, for inland explores starting in the sprawling North York Moors National Park (10 minutes), which is home to Go Ape Dalby treetop courses (35 minutes) and the rides and animal shows at Flamingo Land (40 minutes). There’s a healthy dose of history to be had hereabouts too, with Ormesby Hall (40 minutes), Nunnington Hall (55 minutes), Rievaulx Terrace (one hour) and the spectacular Castle Howard (55 minutes) – famed double for Brideshead in both productions of Brideshead Revisited – within relatively easy reach.
