What customers say

This well-maintained campsite is ideally located for exploring Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay, with convenient bus access. Guests rave about the friendly staff, clean facilities, and spacious sites. The on-site cafe/bar and large dog field are highlights. Metered electricity and some uneven pitches were minor issues.

Karon T.

Power optional gravel and cement/asphalt RV campsite

Liked Good location with easy access to the site including a sizeable pitch. Well maintained with clean toilet block and showers.
The Café Bar was welcoming with excellent food and the staff were super friendly.
Bus stop at the top of the road direct to Whitby or Scarborough. Excellent pub in the village, amazing food!

Power optional grass tent campsite (large)

Liked The location.

Disliked The pitch was very uneven so made the beds uneven. The showers were awful as the water from the other showers flowed through which ment I was standing in it.The Wi-Fi didn’t work and we had to pay for an electric top up card on top of our hook up lead The pitches were to close together won’t be back.

Chris P.

Power optional gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked the location was ideal for a relaxed stay the pitches although small were well looked after the staff were very helpful and a pleasure to talk to. Clean toilet and washing up facilities. Restaurant food good quality

Disliked Showers did not stop on long enough and a long wait to get them warm(were only warm not hot) waste of water. Menu for evening meals need additions like a fish dish /salad dish. Electric cards with no refund mine ran out during night so no electric

Local attractions

York House Caravan Park is nicely located on the eastern edge of the North York Moors National Park. It's a short drive from here to Robin Hood’s Bay (five minutes’ drive), where ghost walks tell the story of times gone by. For a small taste of the village's smugglers' history, head to the museum. For hikers, there are fine choices around such as the 109-mile Cleveland Way (five minutes) through the North York Moors, and the Coast to Coast Path (five minutes) ending at Robin Hood’s Bay. Those who prefer to travel at higher speeds can take the North Yorkshire Moors Railway from the station in Whitby (10 minutes) – after spending some time exploring the famed abbey, of course. Goathland (20 minutes) is a popular destination – it's the home of the TV series 'Heartbeat' and starred in the Harry Potter films too. There are so, so, so many pretty spots along the coast that you might find it hard to choose where to spend your time. However, Ravenscar (20 minutes), a pretty coastal village with splendid cliffs, and the more ‘happening’ Scarborough (half an hour) are some very nice picks.
