What customers say
This well-maintained campsite is ideally located for exploring Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay, with convenient bus access. Guests rave about the friendly staff, clean facilities, and spacious sites. The on-site cafe/bar and large dog field are highlights. Metered electricity and some uneven pitches were minor issues.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Good location. Things for the children…
Power optional gravel and cement/asphalt RV campsite
Liked Good location. Things for the children to do (parks), dog walking field and cafe/pub (although this often didn’t appear open when we stayed). Facilities basic but clean, although the site was very quiet.
Disliked No correspondence regarding the recent Moores fires before arriving. Lots of road closures which made access difficult and were not informed of this prior to arrival. Not given any update or information once arriving either.
Showering was difficult with young child as cubical were very small and no family bathrooms.

Wouldn't return
Power optional gravel travel trailer campsite
Liked The bar was a nice seating area
Disliked Very small pitches crammed close together.
The showers where you stand to have shower the water from the 4 showers gathers around your feet. With the drains clogged with hair this wasn't a nice experience.
Ques for toilets, shower and dishwasher.
Supposed to stay 2 nights left after 1.

Great location
York house family camping pod
Liked The pods were a good size, clean and had power. Great location, easy walk/cycle along the cinder track to Robin Hoods Bay/Whitby.
The bbq/live music was a great addition.
Disliked Toilets/shower block dirty at times.
Overly complicated bar/cafe for ordering

Wonderful site, just toilet block lets them down
Power optional grass tent campsite (large)
Liked Site clean and tidy, all staff were friendly and helpful.
Pub/cafe was lovely and dog friendly. They had a brilliant singer on one of our nights.
The woman who checked us in was very helpful and offored us advise on buses and electricity point. All staff were helpful and friendly.
Disliked The toilets were filthy, even after cleaning. The drains were blocked and the whole room was flooded most mornings and evenings.
Many of the toilets were blocked throughout the day and would be filled with toilet roll and poo until they were un blocked at lunchtime the following day when they were closed for cleaning.
The site was beautiful they could just do with an upgrade to the toilet/shower block.
Would have also been nice to have better mirrors and a place to dry your hair.
