Whitby, North Yorkshire, England
Northern Skies safari tent
Liked First time at coast and camplight staying in the Northern skies safari tent and we will be returning! Lovely quiet spot surrounded by nature. I've never been one for camping but this is the way to do it!! Comfortable beds, cosy log burner, outdoor kitchen and your own shower room and toilet. The tent had everything we needed and had some really nice touches like binoculars (great for watching the barn owls), hot water bottles and every kitchen utensil you could think of. There's no place to charge a phone in the tent but we could recharge the power bank at the honesty shop/caravan and we did get some signal which we weren't expecting. It's a great location for some lovely walks along the Cleveland way and great coastal views. 5 mins drive one way to Whitby or 5 mins the other way to Robin hoods bay. Supermarkets not far away, just as you get into Whitby to buy food etc.
We stayed 3 nights but could easily have stayed longer, we will be booking again soon for next spring :)

Camping pod (no pets)
Liked We loved everything about this site and the camping pod experience. The location was great - in-between Keswick and Penrith, both within an easy 10 min drive. The scenery was amazing and we were blown away by the views of Blencathra from our pod. The facilities on the site were fantastic and we really appreciated the communal area with fridge and freezer to store food. There was laundry and washing up areas too which were very useful and came in handy. Everyone on site was really nice and it had a lovely family friendly atmosphere.
Our pod was very impressive for our first time in this sort of accomodation - the heating was very effective and everything was in good working order. We had a very comfortable stay and will definitely be returning to Gill head farm soon!
Disliked My only negative was that it says on the campsite listing that you can only use fuel for a barbeque bought from the farm itself, however when we got there they did not have any coal and we had to drive out looking for somewhere nearby to buy it. If I had known they were likely to be out of stock we would have brought our own in the first place but didn't on purpose as we trying to respect the rules, but we know this now for next time.
