  • Peaceful touring pitches in the North York Moors National Park
  • Whitby 15 minutes' drive away; 25 minutes to Robin Hood's Bay
  • Adults-only site with dogs permitted; easy access from A171
Can’t decide between a countryside location or being close to the coast? Bag yourselves a good bit of both with a stay at Burnt House Caravan Park. This peaceful family-run park is in the North York Moors National Park, so it’s surrounded by gorgeous rural scenery and has easy access to moorland walks, relaxed bike rides and other activities including fishing at Scaling Reservoir (five minutes' drive away). You may like to ride on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway for a good taste of the landscapes or perhaps challenge yourself to a steep clamber up Roseberry Topping. Or how about that coast trip? The North Yorkshire coast is only about five miles from the site, and being close to the A171 means you’ll be able to zip along to the popular town of Whitby in about 15 minutes by car. Staithes, Runswick Bay and Robin Hood’s Bay are all within easy reach too. The touring pitches here are for adults only, but dogs are allowed as long as they’re kept on leads at all times. Barbecues are permitted, and you can retreat to the games room for some indoor time if the weather’s not looking so good. Other facilities on site include a launderette, a wifi service, a chemical disposal point and bathrooms with showers and toilets.

What customers say

A peaceful spot with helpful staff and nice grounds. Enjoy the quiet, good views and games room. Toilets are clean but old. Wi-Fi can be weak, limited local shops and dogs might face charges/less space. Handy for Whitby and the moors.

Fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site (maximum 7 metres)

Liked Very friendly and welcoming staff. Well spaced out pitches . Hookup points and water tap on every pitch. Toilet block very clean and only a minute from the pitches. Security barrier at the entrance. Lovely site only stayed for one night but we will be back for a longer stay.

Steve W.

Fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site (maximum 7 metres)

Liked Tidy site, bit remote for what we hoped but was a late booking. Very clean. Also hit by storm Dave so a rough night as not much shelter from the elements but that was no ones fault.

Disliked Toilets very dated and cold, mens have just been 'renovated' new tiles on 2 walls!! Pitches were short, website says 7m max, my van 7.6m. I checked before booking and they said ok but leg drops at the rear so needed a gap meaning front sticking out further still. WiFi and signal terrible.

Clair P.

Fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site (maximum 7 metres)

Liked Very clean , quite , friendly regulars
That knew things and was very helpful
Everyone was friendly
They have a play room with pool table and table tennis ,games,puzzles and books galore to take or swop
We paid £22 to get back from Whitby but the Taxi driver was very friendly & helpful

Disliked The shower block in my opinion needed to be closer to the motorhomes
25-30 mins on bus to Whitby
Buses are not reliable and bus station is dirty smelly
Very over crowded as well

Katharine B.

Fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site (maximum 7 metres)

Liked Very well kept site, great location, very quiet. Lovely pub nearby.

Disliked Poor wifi throughout site with no data available. Poor lighting at night, especially to get to toilets. Toilet/shower block quite dated and not lit at all at night. Site is better suited for motorhomes or campervans with own toilets. Concerned about short metal posts sticking through concrete pad on plot, could cause damage if driven over.

Alva G.

Fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site (maximum 7 metres)

Liked Burnt House park was clean and pleasant. Although there was noone to greet us, we were made welcome by the lovely gentleman who answered the door bell via phone link and talked us through where to pitch. The toilets and showers were clean and hot and the hard standing pitches were spacious and well maintained with electric and water .

Disliked The site could do with more signs pointing to the chemical toilet waste unit and bins and some direction to where dogs would be able to be exercised and walked. It didn't come over as being particularly dog friendly.

Local attractions

You’ll be well positioned for walks in the North York Moors National Park here – there are plenty to choose from, but if you need a bit of help a good place to start is Danby Lodge National Park Centre (15 minutes’ drive). The distinctive hill of Roseberry Topping (25 minutes) is a popular place to walk, as is the rocky area around The Wainstones (45 minutes). Elsewhere nearby you can go coarse fishing at Scaling Reservoir (five minutes' drive), ride the North Yorkshire Moors Railway from Grosmont station (10 minutes) or dip into the area's history at Rievaulx Abbey (50 minutes). The Museum of Victorian Science (10 minutes) is a good option on a damp day. The coast isn’t far off either, so you may like to set off for the beaches at Runswick Bay (10 minutes), Staithes (15 minutes) or Robin Hood’s Bay (25 minutes). Whitby (15 minutes) is another great option, for its abbey, Captain Cook Memorial Museum and 199 Steps as well as the beach.
