Pitch up in Pickering at Oak Tree Farm Park to be in a prime place for pottering around some of the best parts of North Yorkshire… villages, markets, Dalby Forest and first-rate walking and cycling routes are all close by. Oak Tree Farm is a small and welcoming site on a working farm with friendly free-range hens and a couple of pigs and goats (which the kids are welcome to interact with). Bags of feed are available to buy for a small cost if you'd like to feed the farm animals, such as goats and alpacas. For your own feeding and watering, grab the fresh coffee that's available to takeaway on weekends and during school holidays between 8.30am and 10am. The farm has a toilet block, showers and dishwashing facilities: a £1 honesty box contribution is used for the showers. Oak Tree Farm Park welcomes families and couples of all ages, but doesn't accept group bookings or group multiple bookings.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Lovely place and host. Beautiful setting. Great showers and toilets and wash facilities.

Disliked: Only negative which isn't a dig at the owners. But the rules do say dogs to be kept on a lead. But unfortunately this wasn't the case. 4 large dogs running about the camping field and stressing the farm animal.

A beautiful, brilliant place to stay, especially with young children

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: The owners were very helpful and friendly, the children 11,8,7 loved the animals and the camping field was great for them to run around, there's a gate that's kept closed (sign on it that says keep closed children playing)on entry to the site so you feel safe letting the children play. Breakfast butties in a morning if ordered the day before and fresh eggs when available, fire pits to hire for the toasted marshmallows, showers and toilets were clean and looked after,washing up facilities good. Some people left their electric cool boxes plugged in in the kitchen bit (permission of the owners) we had electric hook up which was sufficient for the heater at night and kettle and toaster ( all on at separate times )plus charging of phones/ tablet etc , had a great stay and will be back as central for flamingo land,scarborough, whitby, Robin hood bay.

Disliked: Nothing at all

Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked: Everything about the site boasts family !
The animals are a missive hit , not just for the kids but adults too . If we needed anything, it wasn’t too much to ask .
You can order pizza and breakfast baps in advance and also grab fresh coffee and eggs.
We loved it so much that if we could, we would have stayed an extra night .
Clean shower and toilet facilities. A fridge freezer to use and washing up stations.

Disliked: Nothing !

Oak Tree 2 bedroom safari tent (hot tub)

Liked: The facilities. The beds (in safari tent) were super comfortable. There was nothing the safari tent didn’t have.

Disliked: This isn’t a dislike just more a comment about the listing of facilities in the tent in how the fact there is a decent size and quality cool box available but we didn’t realise this so packed foods accordingly). We also discovered a fridge in the camping wash room area which we thought was a brilliant idea (we are camping amateurs).

Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked: This is a lovely site. Pitches are a great size and our fully serviced pitch having its own water tap next to pitch was a added bonus. The owners are welcoming and friendly and there if you need them but not Intrusive. The food and drinks that you can order are a great price and so are the fire pit hire and logs.
The animals are not just good for the kids to enjoy but also some relaxing therapy for the adults too. Our kids enjoyed feeding and stroking the animals and spent a lot of time there.
Local shops are only a short drive away as are local nature trecks.
We enjoyed our stay and could have stayed longer. Will definitely return again.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: What's not to like, this place is a little gem of a campsite. Small and quiet with big well spaced pitches, and plenty of space for children to play safely. Even my older two enjoyed walking round the paddock with the goats, alpacas, pigs and chickens. Being able to have a campfire was an added bonus and bags of logs and firepit hire wasn't expensive.

Facilities are basic but the four individual shower/toilet cubicles are roomy, clean and tidy with hot powerful showers and plenty of hooks for hanging clothes and towels. Never had a wait to use them, even in the mornings.

The owners are welcoming and friendly without being intrusive and always on-hand if you need anything.

Well placed for visits to Whitby, Scarborough and Filey, with all three being within a 30 minute drive. The centre of Pickering is only 5 minutes drive and there is a good selection of local shops, cafes, pubs and small supermarket.

Disliked: Nothing.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: This has been our favourite campsite so far. So chilled, welcoming and with lots of space.
Hot, powerful clean showers and toilet blocks.
We absolutely loved the petting farm, pigs, goats, llamas, ducks all which you can feed with the food provided for just £1 a bag 🥰

Fresh eggs sold on site as well as fresh proper coffee 😋

40 minutes drive to York, Whitby and Scarborough and a 1 hour walk into Pickering

Highly recommend and we will definitely be back ♥️
