 Absolutely brilliant and perfect in every way. Beautifully maintained with a warm welcome and huge pitches.

CL field is run as a genuine 5 van members only site. Lovely walks and views across the Hole of Horcum, easy drive into Pickering or Whitby for provisions and entertainment.

Spotless amenity blocks for those who require them, impossible to fault.

Fish and chip van and pizza seller plus daily ice cream van were welcome extras.

We simply love coming here

Reviewer: Carava 1 review from this member

 We stayed in the 'Back Field'. Great size pitches (approx 13m wide), well marked out and maintained, even in very wet conditions.

Nice unobstructed views (partly because nobody else stayed in the field that weekend).

Very helpful when we left as my FWD cart could not shift the caravan on the wet grass, so they arrived quickly in a 4x4 and made easy work of it!

Highly recommended location as well due to close proximity of towns for excellent food choice and great walking round Horcum.

 Even though there is currently restrictions in place due to Covid19 this is one of the best sights we've stayed on.

Don't let the busy road comments put you off, after the first night we didn't pay any attention. The pitches are very large and not crammed together.

All the farm animals make it exciting for the kids and the field was long enough for our youngest daughter to ride her bike down.

I would firmly recommend to at least try this site once and if like us, you will surely plan to revisit again.

Reviewer: Amanda 2 reviews from this member

 Arrived at 12. 30pm, the time from which you're allowed onto the site. Was welcomed by whom I think was Angela. We were given a pitch number and instructions on where the water/chemical disposal was. All very organised.

There was hand sanitizer everywhere that people would touch. I can't comment on the washroom facilities as these weren't open, for obvious reasons.

The pitches are enormous and the site is very well kept. It is near to a main road so there is traffic noise but you get used to it. It's a great site to get to whitby/robin hoods bay and lots of other lovely places.

It is a really relaxing site and is also a working farm, which makes it even better, in my opinion.

I would thoroughly recommend this site and it is very reasonably priced.

Reviewer: Graham 2 reviews from this member

 Can't fault the site, excellent location and facilities.

Next to busy road but after a couple of days this didn't bother us.

Ideal walking area and access to the coast was easy. We'll certainly be returning.

Reviewer: 88mark 6 reviews from this member

 Friendly welcome

Used this for a one night stop over. Pitched in the front field next to the busy A169 with quite a bit of road noise through the night.

Pitches on the front field quite uneven but no real problem for one night. The top/back fields look more level

Good area to compute to Pickering, Scarborough, Whitby etc.

Shower blocks clean and modern

Reviewer: Chloe99 13 reviews from this member

 The best site we have ever stayed on. We return every summer and our children have practically grown up with this as their main summer holiday destinations.

Angela and Trevor are friendly and helpful hosts. Definitely book in to see a milking session.

The site is always maintained to the highest standard with bins emptied and grass mown regularly.

The washrooms are always spotless without exception, even when the site is fully booked, and there are sufficient facilities to avoid the need to queue.

The pitches are huge, lots of room for our 6 berth caravan, awning, car, picnic table, bbq.

Lovely location, short drive to Pickering for all the usual market town facilities including Co-op and Lidl. Pretty drive across moors to Whitby.

Right opposite the Hole of Horcum, we enjoy walking to Levisham Station from the site to watch the steam trains with a picnic.

It is several miles but a lovely day out for keen walkers.

Can't wait to come back again next year.

Reviewer: Newnatjj 25 reviews from this member

 Absolutely loved our stay here!

We were pitched on the back field, with EHU on the biggest pitch I have come across on a camp site! The pitch was well maintained (nice short grass!) and not far from the clean, abundant facilies which were fully stocked with toilet roll, hand wash, etc (loved the 'farm theme' of these too!).

There is a small play park for the kids, lots of room for them to have a run around and a designated dog walking area. There are animals to see and you can go watch the cows being milked too.

The site is situated just off the main road to Whitby through the North Yorkshire Moors, so you do get some noise from the traffic but definitely not enough to put me off re visiting. We went for a walk around the Hole of Horcum whilst there, and had a drive to Goathland too which is really close by.

Was really please with how reasonable the site fees were too, makes a refreshing change from the seemingly ridiculous increasing fees that some sites are charging.

10/10 from us, we will return!

 Absolutely loved everything about this site!

The booking process was great - an email sent & responded to straight away via their Facebook page.

Arrived on a very wet and windy afternoon and was given information of where to pitch, where to find facilities etc. The pitches were level.

The pitches are HUGE! The biggest pitches we have had on a campsite. We could not believe it for the price we paid - £12 per night including electric for 2 adults in a 6 man tent with a dog.

The facilities were spotless. Unisex blocks with showers, wash rooms, washing up facilities. These were heated, washing up liquid provided, hand wash provided, air fresheners in the loos too. Loved the farm theme too!

The site is separated into 3 separate fields; the first field on entering had a few touring caravans, there was a field further up that I believe was for Caravan & Camping Club Members, then the field at the back (which we were on) was for the tents. There is a designated dog walking area, a small wooden children's play area, donkeys, sheep, goats, pigs and cows on the farm - you can watch the cows being milked; great for the kids!

The location is perfect for exploring the North Yorkshire Moors (fabulous for steam train enthusiasts!), pretty villages such as Grosmont and Goathland, Whitby etc. If I were to be EXTREMELY picky, then the only slight niggle is that the site is on the main road that runs from Pickering to Whitby but this did not disturb us.

10/10 all the way from us, we can't wait to return!
