Licensed Site. All units welcome.
Site open from 1st March to 31st October
The campsite, bunkhouse barn and
holiday cottages are situated within a sheep farm, in
the heart of the North York Moors.
Both campsite fields can accommodate tents, caravans and
motor homes, and there is still plenty of space to play
ball games and fly kites. Enjoy a completely clear view
of the night skies, free from light interference, and
experience the almost complete silence of warm summer
nights.
The majority of the area is flat and
level; some parts are gently sloping, with all of the
fields having lots of shelter provided by high hedges
and trees. There are views across the moors from most
parts of the site, and there are views of the North
Yorkshire Moors Railway (heritage steam-operated) from
some parts of the site.
The main campsite has 30 pitches, and
there are an additional 60 pitches for use in busy times.
There is a small meadow ideal for back packers opposite
the farmhouse, adjacent to the N Y M Railway.
DOGS are welcome but must be kept
under control at all times on the site and can be
exercised off the site. Please note we are a farm
site; bring appropriate footwear!
This campsite is a private home
and business and is not owned by any commercial organisation.

how to get here page for detailed directions and

of the track, the facilities and reception are a little
further on, turning left, towards the house and
farmyard.

CUSTOMER COMMENTS
Fantastic stay, the owners were very welcoming, we had a pitch in the paddock and found it to be a fantastic spot with a stream around the edge and a direct view of the steam trains going through the farm
Would highly commend - a nice quiet site with beautiful surroundings
Camping in gorgeous Goathland. Nice secluded quiet campsite. Washrooms were cleaned daily and restocked with essentials
.A perfect place to visit and stay
Amazing and very friendly
Fantastic location in
lovely surroundings. Couldn't fault it, good value for
money.
This farm site is
amazing, there's so much nature and wildlife to be seen!
This
is not the first time we've visited this lovely site and
we will certainly be going again
If
you don't like the bugs, nature, the joys of dirt
tracks, climbing rocks and seeing waterfalls and mother
nature at her best, why camp? We will definitely be
returning for another visit, couldn't fault the place
