Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked We really enjoyed it campsite is clean and close to all amenities literally 5 mins drive to the likes of B&m and home bargains and many more shops and food outlets campsite does provide if needed disposable BBQs obviously at a price I mean come on it’s cheap enough to stay the night Ideal location if traveling a distance to go to saltburn Whitby Scarborough we booked one night but once we had arrived I thought oh why have I not brought my grandson so we booked another night hubby went and got grandson and he loved it from the freedom of running around all day to the cute animals it was his first time away and first time sleeping in a tent he’s 2 in November and he hasn’t shut up about it since massive thumbs up and can’t wait to see the farm shop etc we are sure it will be a success

Disliked The fact we had to leave early because like many other kids grandson was up before gods dog wanting to run around and everyone else where asleep

Primitive grass tent campsite (two person)

Liked It’s a new campsite, but we really enjoyed how private and peaceful it was. The hosts are very relaxed and don’t mind when you arrive or leave, which made things feel easygoing. You can park your car anywhere on the pitch and set up your campsite wherever you like, which gives a lot of flexibility. We had everything we needed, so we didn’t require much assistance. There were only three other camps set up, and just one of them was occupied, so it felt very quiet and restful. The views were beautiful, and we loved seeing the farm animals. You can also walk towards the cliff for a short hike that leads to a stunning sea view. A shop is within walking distance, and the toilets were clean. There’s even a golf course nearby you might spot a few golf balls while exploring 😄. Just make sure to bring everything you might need, as there aren’t many facilities or supplies available nearby.

Disliked Wish there was a sink for washing up but as a new camp site understandable.

Liked Easy to find, level campsite with clean facilities.
Gorgeous animals to go and see and a footpath from the site to either the sea or the nearest village.

Local attractions

There are plenty of things to do in Saltburn-by-the-Sea (five minutes’ drive), a coastal town that has been popular with holiday-goers since Victorian times. Stop by the beach to try some watersports or head directly to some of its historic attractions, like Saltburn Pier (open since 1869), the Saltburn Cliff Tramway (open since 1884) and the Saltburn Miniature Railway (open since 1947). Those who don’t mind a slightly longer drive can eye up Whitby (35 minutes), famed for its Captain Cook heritage and Dracula inspiration over at Whitby Abbey (35 minutes). Climb the 199 steps up to St Mary's Church if you’re feeling full of energy; if you’re not, there’s always the option to retreat to the beach. Gripps Farm is just outside the North York Moors National Park (10 minutes from the northern edge) too, so walkers will have plenty of areas to take their pick from. One of the closest sites is Danby Beacon (20 minutes), thought to have been used during the Roman occupation.
