Liked: We took a spontaneous day trip to Whitby, and decided to make a weekend of it. This campsite had plenty of spaces despite it being a last minute booking on a busy bank holiday. It was fantastic, and reasonably priced. Wonderful central location with beautiful views on a massive spacious, pretty much level site. We’ll definitely keep an eye out for dates this campsite ‘pops up’ in future.
