Landscaped site 20 minutes' drive from Pickering, with rural views
Well-maintained heated shower/toilet block with makeup area
Licensed shop and launderette; caravan spares and gas for sale

The Pickering people have it sorted. The Vale of Pickering Caravan Park is crammed with trees, shrubs and flowerbeds and it has views over the North Yorkshire countryside, plus washrooms you'd want to find anywhere. The heated toilets and showers are immaculate, there are private wash cubicles, an electric point for those all-important hairdryers and hair straighteners, and even a ladies’ makeup area. Best of all, there are ladies’ and gents’ baths – providing a long hot soak after a long hard day relaxing and sightseeing. There are first-class facilities on site too, including a well-stocked licensed shop, a launderette, caravan spares and gas cylinders, a play area and a football pitch for the kids. A pub is about two and a half miles away for food, or you can pick up some fresh local produce at the nearby farmers’ market. Thornton Dale (four miles away) also has two traditional pubs so you won't be short of choice when it comes to satisfying all tastes and tums.

Samantha C. Apr 2025

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch (large)

Liked: Everything about this campsite is brilliant especially for families with young children. The staff are warm friendly and welcoming.
The campsite is easy to pitch up on.
Everything is in good walking distance from the pitch
The toilets and shower facilities are some of the best we’ve used. Clean and modern/up to date.
The park is brilliant again updated and both boys loved it.
There are lots to do locally around you.
The cafe is just next to the park making it feel safe when your kids are in the park playing. Prices are reasonable and the food/drinks were lovely.

Disliked: The cafe times although I think is owned separately to the campsite. We felt 9am was a little late to open and 3pm barring Fridays (8pm) was quite early to close. But that is just personal preference with two young children up at 6am! However an afternoon late coffee/drink would have been nice.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Lovely well looked after site, the facilities were brilliant, clean and well maintained. The kids loved the park with plenty to play on. The cafe onsite served amazing food and drinks. A good location. Staff very welcoming and friendly.

Disliked: The gravel under the awning was uncomfortable without shoes and my daughter fell in the awning really bashing her knees.

From the manager: Thank you for your review it was great to meet you. We look forward to welcoming you back to The Vale of Pickering.

Local attractions

Trainspotters and sightseers alike will be chuff-chuffed at the North Yorkshire Moors Railway to take visitors on a steam-rollering 18 miles through the moors, with rural villages along the route – Goathland was used as Hogsmeade in the first Harry Potter film and as Aidensfield in ITV’s Heartbeat – and with plenty of opportunities to hop off and go hiking o’er the moors. The North York Moors National Park has walking and cycling routes galore, with other sporty options near the Vale of Pickering taking in tennis, golf, horse-riding, sailing, mountain biking, fishing and watersports at Wykeham Lakes, or cantering at Snainton Riding Centre. Savvy shoppers should sally to the nearby market towns of Pickering and Malton, or head towards York to spend the day at the Monks Cross Shopping Centre two miles from the city centre. And once the wallet is somewhat lighter, other recommended and less expensive days out in the area include taking in the World War II museum at Eden Camp, seeing the historic buildings at the Ryedale Folk Museum, or going to one of the many events at the Baroque mansion Castle Howard. A visit to this neck of the woods wouldn’t be complete without a day at the seaside – visitors can stroll on the sands at fantastic Whitby, flit around Filey, browse through Bridlington or spend days at the country’s first ever seaside resort of Scarborough with its Italian gardens, miniature steam railway, casino, clifftop castle and kid-clamouring for seaside amusements. Kids will also love the nearby theme park and zoo Flamingo Land, making like a monkey on the zip wires at Go Ape! or getting grisly at the York Dungeons after the big folk take in the architecture of York Minster and the history of the Jorvik Centre.
