  • Small family-run park on a 200-acre dairy farm with stunning views
  • In Wrelton, a five-minute drive from Pickering and Sinnington
  • Walks and cycles around the North York Moors straight from the site
Centrally located, easy to access and with far-reaching views over 200 acres of fields – Keld Knowle Farm Holidays is a convenient and scenic site for ticking off the top attractions of North Yorkshire. This working dairy farm is in Wrelton on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, between the pretty villages of Sinnington and Pickering (five minutes’ drive). Wanders in dramatic landscapes can certainly be had around here, as you can head off on ambles or cycle rides right from the gates; one of the area’s best routes is a day-long journey through woods and fields with stop-offs at local watering holes along the way. Don’t mind driving? Destinations within 10 minutes by car include Pickering Castle, the North York Moors Steam Railway and Beck Isle Museum. Horse riding is available close to the park too if you’d rather trot through the countryside. Tuckered out after spending hours out in the open air? Return to the farm and settle in to watch the cows and tractors at work (safe in the knowledge you won’t be asked to give anyone a hand…). This family-friendly site also does the basics right with stone roads for smooth driving, handy electric hook-ups, a smart bathroom block with underfloor heating, and easy access to drinking water. A pub is in Wrelton for eats, and the village also has a bus stop and a play area; a well-serviced shop and petrol station are a couple of miles away in Middleton. Meanwhile, pizzas are available on Tuesday and Friday evenings throughout the high season.

This is an excellent, immaculately clean campsite on a working farm, praised for its friendly owners and peaceful atmosphere. Pitches are spacious and well-maintained, with many highlighting the superb, modern toilet and shower facilities. The location is convenient for local attractions, and popular homemade pizzas are available on site.

Liked Well presented showers

Disliked No hot water no one. Around to tell
Spoilt the night we stayed

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hello, sorry you had no hot water for the one night that you stayed with us. We were aware of the problem and thought we had sorted it that evening, unfortunately the boiler had tripped out again. We are always nearby to report problems but may take some finding as we are working early and late on the farm. Apologies once again. Karen.

Great value. Fabulous campsite.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Level pitch with loads of space. Lovely facilities. The plants in the bathroom were a really nice touch!

Local walking route recommendations were provided which was greatly appreciated. Walking distance to the local pub!

A signposted walking loop around the farm was a really nice surprise and great for a quick leg stretch with the dogs.

Home cooked pizzas are available on certain nights!

Loved walking up to the cows in the next field.

Disliked Absolutely nothing.

Kevin B.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Nice welcome on arrival giving plenty of information of the site and surrounding area. Pitches were of good size and a nice touch having water on the pitch.
Excellent dog walk on a circular walk as well as a walk to Wrelton.
Buses for Pickering/Scarborough and York were from outside the Buck Inn, which opened Wednesday to Sunday.
I would recommend this site.

Local attractions

Hotspots in the local area include Pickering (five minutes’ drive), famed for a heritage steam railway you might recall from the Harry Potter films and Heartbeat TV series, and the postcardworthy villages of Sinnington (five minutes), Hutton-le-Hole and Thornton Dale (10 minutes). Take in all the cute country cottages as a precursor to the impressive architecture of stately spots like the National Trust’s Nunnington Hall (15 minutes) and Castle Howard (half an hour) before roaming around the Roman sights of York (45 minutes). Looking for days out in nature? Dawdle around Dalby Forest (half an hour), which is dotted with playgrounds if you’ve got the kids with you; other family-friendly options in the area include the zoo at Flamingo Land Resort and Helmsley’s bird of prey centre (both 15 minutes). The coast isn’t far away either for seaside sessions: the resorts of Whitby and Scarborough are both 35 minutes’ drive, while the sandy beach of Filey is 45 minutes away.
