Grass pitches

  • Well-maintained pitches behind a friendly rural pub in Yedingham
  • Castle Howard, Flamingo Land and beaches within a half-hour drive
  • Beer garden, playground, river fishing and home-cooked meals
Pitching up by a pub – that’s always a fine idea. Settle in for a tasty dinner, and as many drinks as you wish, then simply stroll across the garden to get to your bed without any worries over who’s going to drive. And it’s an even finer idea if the pub in question is a cosy, friendly place like the Providence Inn in the village of Yedingham, around a 15-minute drive from Malton. There’s a cheery Yorkshire welcome for all guests here, be they families, groups, couples or single travellers – the folk on site just request that all visitors respect each other (and the neighbours) by keeping the hubbub down after midnight. (Please do note that there is likely to be a bit of noise from the pub/beer garden in the evenings though – such is the way with pubs…) Life here is pretty relaxed and informal – guests can pick their pitches, and are welcome to light up barbecues or build fires in firepits (as long as they're kept off the grass). Along with basic bathroom facilities (cleaned twice daily), there’s access to the River Derwent for those who’ve brought along a fishing licence and asked permission. Pike are the most likely catch, but there have been sightings of other slippery species around here too. And so to dinner… home-cooked food is served seven days a week in the pub (you're advised to book in advance for meals, and take note that on Sundays, the kitchen closes at 5pm), and it gets a thumbs up from the locals, who have been known to drive a considerable number of miles to get their dinner here. There’s a good-sized beer garden for alfresco drinks on fine days, and a generous play area to keep kids entertained while the grownups nurse their drinks nearby.

What customers say

A picturesque, family-friendly campsite tucked behind a welcoming pub. Guests rave about the great home-cooked food, generous servings, and friendly staff. Spacious pitches and a decent play area for kids. Convenient for coast and village exploring, though some found loos and showers basic and a bit dated. Occasional pub noise and inconsiderate campers reported.

Liked great size pitches, facilities good too. Lovely walk down the river. Pubs nice and good food, big portions!

Disliked A dedicated path to the facilities would be good as other campers wind break guide lines made it difficult to access at night.

Liked Excellent site in the back of pub garden. Location beautiful and convenient for coast and lovely villages. Great pub food - family of four and our teenage boys loved the portion sizes! Welcoming host, we will be back.

Disliked This isn’t really a dislike as we were informed beforehand. Obviously it is early season and there are a couple of snags with facilities but did not affect us and they are working to sort them out.

Excellent choice for my needs, one night stay while away for work.

Unpowered grass tent or motorhome site

Liked Well drained level pitches, owners allowed the use of the pitches allocated for electric as the non electric was not as well drained. Disabled toilet/shower facility was clean and warm. Great pub, friendly staff and excellent food.

Disliked Some of the facilities not working such as pot wash and some of the toilets had suffered throughout the winter but that did not affect my visit.

Liked Lovely pub, friendly staff

Disliked Very poor facilities - potwash sinks weren't plumbed in, no water or drainage! No paper or hand drying facilities in the toilets, none of the doors closed properly and the lights on timer stayed on for about 10s. The drinking water was from a hose pipe that was laid on the ground.

Local attractions

To work up an appetite for dinner, drive north for about 15 minutes to the North York Moors National Park, head west for the Howardian Hills (25 minutes) or make a break for the beaches and coast path around Filey and Scarborough (both about half an hour away) or Whitby (45 minutes). A bit of history as you roam? Stop in at Castle Howard (25 minutes) to stroll through the elegant gardens, visit the stunning stately home and seek out the secret island. Swish Scampston Hall (10 minutes) is also worth a stop, and there’s more recent history on display among the 20th-century exhibits at Eden Camp history museum (15 minutes). For more rural pursuits, join the pretty pink birds at Flamingo Land (20 minutes) or puff through the countryside on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway from Pickering (15 minutes). When you fancy a change of scenery, head to York (45 minutes) for a day of visits to the minster, the city walls, the Jorvik Viking Centre, the railway museum, the chocolate museum…
