  • Small East Yorkshire glamping site on a family farm in Octon
  • Bridlington and Filey beaches 20 minutes' drive away
  • Smart and cosy ensuite log cabins with kitchenette and deck area
Seaside days, scenic country walks… and a splendid dose of luxury – it’s all here at Old Octon Farm Lodges, a small East Yorkshire glamping site that’s part of a working farm in the village of Octon, 20 minutes from the coast at Bridlington and Filey. The surroundings here are all pretty pastures and open skies, so it’s just the location for a relaxing time spent soaking up the fresh air, sunset watching and stargazing. There are several pubs and restaurants in local villages, with more places to eat in Driffield (15 minutes’ drive), which also has a supermarket for supplies to take back to base. Whatever you source in the shops can go into meals prepped inside or outside your lodge – each of the smartly kitted-out lodges has a kitchenette (with microwave, fridge, kettle, toaster, cutlery and crockery provided) and a dining area, plus a barbecue area outside for alfresco eating. The table and chairs on the deck at the front of the lodge are in just the right spot for breakfast in the morning sun too… Everything here has been designed with a luxurious experience in mind – from the rainfall shower in the bathroom to the sparkling wine and chocolates provided as welcome gifts. Each lodge also has a Freesat TV and wifi, plus central heating, double glazing and insulation to keep everything cosy. These are family-friendly lodges, although it's worth noting that there are limited entertainment facilities for children, and dogs are also welcome as long as they are added to your booking in advance and not left in your lodge on their own at any time.

What customers say

Visitors praise the immaculate and well-equipped lodges, often describing them as cosy and spacious. The friendly and helpful hosts, Mandy and David, are frequently highlighted, particularly their willingness to involve children in farm activities like bottle-feeding lambs. The peaceful countryside location, with sheep views, is a significant draw, while still offering convenient access to the Yorkshire coast. Minor points mentioned include a less than perfect sofa bed and the need to bring provisions due to limited nearby shops.

Rivers lodge

Liked Stayed at Rivers Lodge, Old Octon farm Lodges with my son and dog for three nights. The site is excellent and everything you could possibly need is provided. The lodge was clean, tidy and spacious. Comfy beds, kitchen, BBQ, shower and toilet, tv and wifi provided. Couldn't ask for more. Lovely friendly owners. Lots to do in the surrounding area, ideas on where to go provided at the lodge. One bonus of the lodge are the sheep in the field opposite. I would highly recommend this site.

Shepherd's View lodge (no pets)

Liked The cabin was absolutely beautiful and looked out on the field of sheep. The cabin had everything that we could possibly need and more. We were so cosy and slept so well. The owners were extremely helpful and friendly also. The location is perfect for exploring the Yorkshire coast. We hope to return as soon as we can - we loved it!

Disliked Nothing at all.

Buttercup lodge

Liked Loved our short family stay. First impressions were the best, bottle of bubbly and steaming hot tub awaited us. Accomodation was spot on and spotless. Our 5 and 10 year old loved the fact it was a working farm, but guess not all would appreciated the early calls of the lambs. We will definitely stay again.

Shepherd's View lodge (no pets)

Liked Spacious, immaculately clean lodges with absolutely everything provided, right down to a wide range of indoor/outdoor games and activies for children. Loved the welcome pack including milk (and chocolates!) so we could make a cuppa as soon as we arrived. The hosts were so kind and welcoming, taking time to show our two boys around the farm/bottle feed the lambs and answer their questions. Gorgeous views from the cabin and incredibly peaceful site whilst only being 20/30 mins drive from the coast. We literally can't fault this place and will definitely be returning in the future.

Local attractions

Here in the Yorkshire Wolds there’s plenty of lovely scenery to explore, whether you head out on foot, get on your bike, or take a seat on the Yorkshire Wolds Railway (15 minutes' drive). You may also like to have a stroll around a couple of local stately homes at Sledmere House (10 minutes), which has a farm park and adventure playground, or Burton Agnes Hall (15 minutes), known for its art collection and craft shops. And of course you’ll want to get over to the coast as well – perhaps for days on the beach in Filey or Bridlington (both 20 minutes), a bit of birdwatching at RSPB Bempton Cliffs (25 minutes) or a trip to the gorgeous Robin Hood’s Bay (55 minutes). The beach and open-air theatre make Scarborough (half an hour) worth a visit too. If you’ve got kids to entertain, a tour of Bondville Model Village (20 minutes) should be on the schedule. If, however, it’s an adults-only trip, might you perhaps be interested in a tour and tasting at Spirit of Yorkshire Distillery (15 minutes)?
