The campsite

  • Small adults-only site in rural North Yorkshire
  • A five-minute drive from Ravenscar; Scarborough 15 minutes
  • Just off the Cinder Track; access to car-free trails; honesty shop
Whitby or Scarborough? Scarborough or Whitby? At Valley View Camping, kiss that age-old dilemma goodbye and settle down somewhere with easy access to both of North Yorkshire's most popular seaside resorts. Driving to either is a breeze – Scarborough is 15 minutes away by road, while you can reach Whitby in about 20. But there are rewards for travelling under your own steam too – the site is a few minutes' walk from the Cinder Track, a traffic-free bike and walking trail that connects up Yorkshire's seaside capitals, passing through lots of scenic spots that you might otherwise miss. Valley View Camping's level grounds are small in scale and overlook peaceful open countryside. It's an adults-only setup too, so the place should stay nice and peaceful while you relax, perhaps settling in for drinks and meals on the picnic tables provided (you're welcome to bring along a barbecue to create those meals if you like). Other facilities on site include an honesty shop, showers, toilets and chemical disposal. In need of village amenities? Here you're a five-minute drive from Ravenscar's tea rooms, public toilets and stony beach. The nearest farm shop is three miles to the south in Cloughton Newlands. When you arrive, just park up and pick your pitch (with any awnings to the right, please).

What customers say

This adults-only park's a ripper for a quiet country escape, with stunner views and easy access to the Cinder Track for a wander or cycle. Blokes rave about the spotless, modern loos and showers, and the handy shared kitchen. Some spots are a bit lumpy, but it's tidy and chill, a top base for checking out the North Yorkshire coast.

Woodpecker shepherd's hut

Liked We booked this last minute and were so pleased with our choice! The shepherd's hut is lovely inside and well equipped. The bed was firm which we like and very comfortable. The extra bonus was the toilet next to the shepherd's hut! We thought we might have a walk up to the campsite area but we had our own toilet right next door.
The site itself is small and beautiful. We were surrounded by fields and spent time sat outside in the very comfy loungers watching the wildlife and relaxing.

Unpowered concrete and grass tent or motorhome site

Liked Our first stay but we will definitely return.
Nice & quiet, clean, lovely views of the sea & countryside, lovely walks. Toilets, showers, communal kitchen & honesty shop, although we took what we needed with us, so we didn't check this out so not sure what was available.

The Deer camping pod

Liked The decor in the pod. Everything was super clean and the bedding smelled lovely. The toilets and showers were spotless and the site was tidy. The little cat was lovely and the skies were the clearest I've ever seen. All in all a lovely peaceful site.

Woodpecker shepherd's hut

Liked We stayed in the woodpecker hut for one night, we wished we booked an extra night!
It was very clean and had everything we needed, including two very comfortable lounge chairs for outside. We will definitely be returning.
Perfect thank you .

Woodpecker shepherd's hut

Liked The shepherds hut was located in a quiet corner of the campsite away from everyone else with fabulous views over the surrounding fields and a very short path dropped us straight onto the cinder track from which either way led to lovely walks and gorgeous views. The hut was very well equipped, warm and a very comfortable bed. Everything was clean and well looked after, and no midges at all when we sat out on an evening - bonus. It was an absolute pleasure staying here and we have been recommending it and the whole site to our friends and family.

The Deer camping pod

Liked The pod was just as it is shown on the website. The bed was very comfortable and there was plenty of room. There was a bin provided along with cleaning materials and a reed diffuser, which made it very welcoming. The pod uses solar power, which was enough to power the lights and charge our phones. The view from the pod was beautiful and it was very peaceful. The toilets and showers were clean and spacious and there is a kitchen where you can wash up, with a kettle and microwave that you can use. We particularly liked the "honesty" shop which had all the basic things you might need and the facility to pay by card as well as cash.

Unpowered concrete and grass tent or motorhome site

Liked A very peaceful location with stunning views. The facilities were spotless, showers hot and the kitchen was basic but had everything you needed for your stay. The honesty shop is a great idea and we'll stocked. There were plenty of walks directly from the campsite. We loved everything about the site - it's a real hidden gem..

Disliked There was nothing to dislike.

Local attractions

Keeping to the coast, you might like to start by sampling the amusements, bars and restaurants that line Scarborough's North and South bays (15 minutes' drive) before moving on to spectacular Whitby Abbey (20 minutes) for clifftop panoramas over the North Sea. Lots of other splendid seaside spots are close by too, including fantastic former fishing villages like Robin Hood's Bay (20 minutes) and Staithes (40 minutes) or the birdwatching hub of RSPB Bempton Cliffs (45 minutes). There's also a number of attractive freshwater spots in the area, with waterfalls on show at Hayburn Wyke (five minutes) or around the North York Moors village of Goathland (30 minutes). For anglers, Scaling Dam Reservoir (35 minutes) is on hand for fishing, while walkers have the green surrounds of Forge Valley Woods (30 minutes) for scenic strolls along the river Derwent.
