What customers say

Great spot near Runswick Bay & Cleveland Way. Reviews rave about clean facilities, friendly staff, spacious pitches & good pub. Minor notes on the uphill beach walk, shower temps & wind. Highly recommended.

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Toilets and washing up facilities were great. Super clean and well organised.
Field was perfect with super views and paths directly onto the Cleveland way and down to the beautiful beach. Steep but with benches along the way for those needing a rest and completely worth it!

Tracey C.

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Location within walk of beach, pubs, bus top, coastal walks. Easy check in. Pitches a little uneven and much closer together than we like.
Lovely spot albeit just a field, within easy reach of Staithes ( an hours walk) and Whitby (3 hours walk)we walked to both, bus stops outside pub if want to save time.
Two lovely pubs within walking distance both served delicious food.
Toilets and showers cleaned on regular basis.
Handy utility room for washing up. Washing machines if needed. Freezer good to keep cool box ice block frozen. Be nice for communal fridge for storing essentials and maybe a kettle/ plug for chargers if needed as no electric hook ups.
Easy access to Cleveland Way for walks with beautiful scenery, although walk up from beach is very steep!
Great dark skies for stargazing.
Very windy on last night but we were prepared for this from reading previous reviews.

Disliked Pitches a bit close together for us, glad site wasn’t too full!
Way to toilets could be better lit as lights were poor, recommend a torch.
Showers push button so not continuing running water.

Trudy B.

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Great campsite with good facilities in a location that we really liked. Good location for dog walks, access to a dog friendly beach and round corner from a dog friendly pub! It’s still good if you don’t have dogs! Close to Whitby and Staithes. We also went to Whitby golf course which was a 10-15 minute drive away and was really welcoming to visitors.

Disliked I’m finding it hard to think of anything. The showers were on the cool side but that’s being a bit picky!

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The location, the ease of booking, the facilities.

Disliked We were in a row of 5 plots, only 2 were being occupied yet they put us next to eachother? Space people out as much as possible is my advice for obvious reasons.

Local attractions

Getting out for a walk is a good idea here – either along the coast or out into the moors (Falling Foss waterfall, 25 minutes’ drive away, is a good place to aim for). For other fresh-air activities, you could go surfing in Saltburn-by-the-Sea (25 minutes' drive), follow the bike trails through Dalby Forest (45 minutes) or climb into the trees at Go Ape Dalby (45 minutes). Whitby (15 minutes) is a must-visit, of course – to walk the 199 Steps, visit the Captain Cook Memorial Museum and follow in Dracula’s footsteps at Whitby Abbey. A little way south, Robin Hood’s Bay (half an hour) is also a great place to take a stroll, with fossil hunts and ghost walks as well as National Trust - The Old Coastguard Station to explore. More seaside time? How about a day out in Scarborough (45 minutes), with its Sea Life Centre, open-air theatre and Alpamare UK waterpark? Alternatively, mix up coast and moorland scenery with a heritage ride on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway from Whitby to Pickering.
