Big Chief wigwam
Liked: Great location, scenery was fantastic and the farm setting was lovely. We used it mostly as a base to visit Flamborough and Filey. Nice quiet site and my kids got along well with the others on the playing field which is great for footy. Farm trails are nice, me and my youngest had a great stroll one evening. Services are great, the toilets and showers are really clean, hot showers, great facilities! Also really enjoyed walking the pony with the kids down the Piggy Back Trail (which is a nice free activity).
Disliked: Accommodation was a little more basic than we'd anticipated and the mattresses were very uncomfortable (particularly the ones that you put in the middle over the coffee table). We ordered pizza for the last day, I think we paid £35 for two pizzas, garlic bread and two cheesy chips. They had been sat in a pile with other orders prior to collection and they were all stone cold - really disappointed. We just binned majority of it and cracked on. We also saw the chef have a good pick of his ear in the kitchen and not wash his hands.... Not the sites fault but there is zero signal on site and they charge £4 per device for 24 hours if you want wifi - even then, the connection isn't great.

From the manager: Thank you very much for joining us here at Humble Bee Farm for your camping trip. We are well-placed for exploring the area, including all the Yorkshire Coast resorts. As you mention, our site includes a sports field, a small play area, an indoor tractor play area, plenty of walks, Farmer Percy Club and more. Thank you for mentioning the clean toilet and shower facilities which our guests enjoy; these are checked and cleaned on a regular basis. The accommodation you booked was a standard cabin (called a big chief) which includes mattresses, toaster, kettle, fridge and microwave along with a storage area, a coffee table, heating, lighting, lockable door, and access to an outdoor bbq and firepit. There is also a parking space provided along with free access to all onsite facilities. While this cabin is the standard option there are options for fully ensuite cabins too. These include our deluxe cabins with hot tubs, our premium lodge with hot tubs, yurts, and camping. We also have three luxury holiday cottages for guests to enjoy. We appreciate your food order and your feedback about this aspect of your stay. Guests pre-order their food at an agreed timeslot, and our catering team prepare those pizzas ready for collection at this time. If not collected then the pizzas are placed on the top of the pizza oven. If anyone feels their food isn’t hot enough etc, then we are more than happy, if we are informed, to prepare them again. As with any feedback, we are happy to receive and it and we will go the extra mile to resolve problems if we can. As you mention, there isn’t a phone signal on the main site (there never has been) and WiFi is an option on a paid-for basis. The chargeable WiFi is mentioned on our listings so guests are aware. We are in stunning rural location and the WiFi is provided for guests to use if they wish. There is also a good 4G signal at the top of the site which many of our guests use. Thank you again for joining us and for taking time to offer your feedback.

Liked: This is the third time that my friend and I have visited Humble Bee Farm. As usual the stay was amazing. The accommodation is clean and comfortable. My friend struggles with anxiety and always feels relaxed at the farm. The hot tub was amazing and very private. The staff could not have been more helpful. We will continue to visit the farm at every opportunity. Excellent job guys, thank you so much for making our stay such a lovely experience.
Disliked: Nothing at all to dislike.

Liked: The staff are all amazing and couldn’t do more for you if they tried, friendly laid back place it’s nice and private and quiet and I like there’s things on site to do/eat. Also a really good price compared to what some people are charging.
Disliked: The wifi went down the entire weekend which was unfortunate as I needed to work the first day I got there but no fault of anyone and the owners couldn’t of done more to try and help out when it went down.

From the manager: Hello, thank you for taking the time to review Humble Bee. Your photos look great and it's lovely to see you enjoyed our friendly farm yard gang. Due to our rural location, we have had to install super fast fibre to the site. The logistics of installing this do result in a small charge per device, however many of our customers enjoy an unplugged experience whilst visiting the farm. We hope to see you again, best wishes
