The campsite

  • Small adults-only site in rural North Yorkshire
  • A five-minute drive from Ravenscar; Scarborough 15 minutes
  • Just off the Cinder Track; access to car-free trails; honesty shop
Whitby or Scarborough? Scarborough or Whitby? At Valley View Camping, kiss that age-old dilemma goodbye and settle down somewhere with easy access to both of North Yorkshire's most popular seaside resorts. Driving to either is a breeze – Scarborough is 15 minutes away by road, while you can reach Whitby in about 20. But there are rewards for travelling under your own steam too – the site is a few minutes' walk from the Cinder Track, a traffic-free bike and walking trail that connects up Yorkshire's seaside capitals, passing through lots of scenic spots that you might otherwise miss. Valley View Camping's level grounds are small in scale and overlook peaceful open countryside. It's an adults-only setup too, so the place should stay nice and peaceful while you relax, perhaps settling in for drinks and meals on the picnic tables provided (you're welcome to bring along a barbecue to create those meals if you like). Other facilities on site include an honesty shop, showers, toilets and chemical disposal. In need of village amenities? Here you're a five-minute drive from Ravenscar's tea rooms, public toilets and stony beach. The nearest farm shop is three miles to the south in Cloughton Newlands. When you arrive, just park up and pick your pitch (with any awnings to the right, please).

What customers say

Lovely, peaceful adults-only spot with great Cinder Track access for walks/cycling. Facilities are spotless & modern. Kitchen handy. Some pitches uneven, but well-kept overall. Relaxing, good for exploring the coast.

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Could not fault it, great clean hot showers, toilets and washing up room with microwave and kettle if needed. Great honesty shop too with all the essentials there, though one of us is vegan and a small amount of vegan options would be a bonus, but we were fully stocked up in van so didn't need to use 😁😁

Jane H.

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked The peaceful location
The excellent new toilet and shower facilities
The little kitchen area with kettle, fridge/ freezer and microwave
The view and access to cinder track and coast path
The location, away from the noise and bustle of Whitby and Scarborough. Within cycling distance of both on the Cinder Track

Disliked The plots are close together so if you have noisy neighbours who want to stay up late talking and laughing it's hard to get to sleep. Bring ear plugs just in case.

From the manager: Hi.
Thank you for your review & we are glad you enjoyed your stay with us.
We do have a period of quiet between 11pm & 7am - this is normally very well respected.
It seems like we had one couple this weekend not respecting this - Had we been made aware we would have resolved this as, we pride ourselves on being peaceful here at Valley View.
Again, I’m glad you enjoyed your stay with us & thank you for taking the time to review us. All feedback is greatly received.
Thanks.

Local attractions

Keeping to the coast, you might like to start by sampling the amusements, bars and restaurants that line Scarborough's North and South bays (15 minutes' drive) before moving on to spectacular Whitby Abbey (20 minutes) for clifftop panoramas over the North Sea. Lots of other splendid seaside spots are close by too, including fantastic former fishing villages like Robin Hood's Bay (20 minutes) and Staithes (40 minutes) or the birdwatching hub of RSPB Bempton Cliffs (45 minutes). There's also a number of attractive freshwater spots in the area, with waterfalls on show at Hayburn Wyke (five minutes) or around the North York Moors village of Goathland (30 minutes). For anglers, Scaling Dam Reservoir (35 minutes) is on hand for fishing, while walkers have the green surrounds of Forge Valley Woods (30 minutes) for scenic strolls along the river Derwent.
