Prospect House Farm Campsite

Positiv Loved our stay at this campsite. The facilities are basic and quite novel but perfectly adequate. The setting is beautiful and a nice walk down the bridleway to Scalby which is a lovely village. The campsite also has a plant nursery which is great!

Positiv Fantastic site. Great location, clean, quiet and friendly. Basic but all we needed or wanted. The individually cut plots were perfect and the space and safety were perfect for two children to have an amazing time.

Positiv Really nicely run site in a great location. Very well stocked shop full of a variety of amenities. Friendly staff. Showers and toilets always kept very clean.

We had a great stay and I would definitely return!

Negativ Very few negatives so I'm nitpicking really, but if pushed I'd say that the car park is a little small. On busy nights it was sometimes difficult to park without feeling like my car was in the way.

Positiv Small friendly campsite. Tent pitches are marked out really well - feels like your own space. Lovely views, highlights were fire pit and pizza night. Lovely walk into the village. Shop well stocked and friendly welcome.

Negativ Toilet/shower doors have gaps - felt a little exposed so I didn't use the showers.

Positiv Beatifull campsite, all amenities clean, friendly hosts, little handy shop on site.
We really enjoyed our stay.

Negativ Just a little reminder for fellow campers: being out in nature, it’s always wise to check for ticks — especially after time in grassy areas. Part of the countryside experience, so come prepared and stay safe.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you so much for your kind comments about the campsite, our facilities, and the team. We're really pleased that you enjoyed your stay overall and appreciated what the site has to offer.

We’re genuinely sorry to hear about your experience with ticks. Unfortunately, ticks are an occasional part of being in the countryside, particularly in areas surrounded by fields, wildlife, and coastal grassland — something that can be the case anywhere in rural North Yorkshire and beyond, especially during the warmer months.

Our pitches are deliberately designed to retain a natural, meadow-like feel, but we do regularly mow and manage areas around the pitches and main paths to reduce the risk as much as possible while balancing the desire to maintain a natural setting for guests. That said, your feedback is helpful, and we’ll certainly review whether there’s more we can do in certain areas.
We always encourage guests to follow countryside advice — including using tick repellent, avoiding sitting in long grass, and doing regular tick checks, particularly after walking, playing, or camping in wild spaces. We will look at making this information more visible on arrival for guests who may be less familiar with the risks.

Thank you again for your feedback and also for sharing advice with future guests. We hope, despite this experience, we might have the opportunity to welcome you back again in the future.
