Liked: Great location very close to the Cleveland Way and Sutton Bank. The site is small so lovely and quiet, with great views. Facilities are pretty good (the off-grid shower was especially good) and there were even a couple of walk guides in the shed with the washing up sink.
Disliked: Nothing!

Liked: Peaceful site with great views. Pitches were well maintained, toilets/showers kept clean, fire pits available to use and you could purchase firewood and fresh farm eggs from the site. The owner also kindly let us freeze our ice packs in their freezer. The kids loved walking round the farm and seeing the lambs, sheep and cows 🥰

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked: Lovely farm camping. Friendly owner. Small site. Rural. Lots of walks and cycling trails nearby. The off grid shower was hotter than the main shower. Very eco friendly with compost toilets which were never smelly.
Disliked: A bit exposed at times up on the top of the moors. We had an exceptionally windy night for the end of May. Make sure your tent is pegged down properly. A fridge in the utility room would have been a helpful addition as we could not see where we could get our freezer blocks frozen .. I guess you have to ask at the farm house. Overall it’s a great little campsite.

Powered grass campsite
Liked: Wonderfull views across the countryside, spacious level pitch, happy friendly host, good WiFi. Lovely fresh farm eggs! Lots of birdlife around the farm. Quiet site. Shower is basic but worked Ok.
Disliked: Loved everything about the site, however: if you’re towing a caravan you cannot access the A170 Sutton Bank from Thirsk, so plan your route, the detour for caravans is 20 miles round and takes 40 minutes.
