Main problem was the shower block, plus side, it was warm and plenty of warm water, minus was it needed a good scrub, I did see the lady cleaning the block but by the following morning it left a lot to be desired, the mop for cleaning shower area out after use was dirty and the water in the mop bucket filthy. One toilet blocked with poo and paper, no toilet paper in one. Not nice especially as was in my view relatively expensive.
We booked four nights but stayed one. Read the terms and conditions and it was clear there would be no refunds so just bit the bullet and moved on.
The views of the sea were a long way off and some pitches had no view at all. Dog bin overflowing. Food from pub was mixed, husband had steak pie and it was good, I had garlic mushrooms and chips as I couldn’t see a vegetarian option on the menu, the garlic mushrooms were awful, couldn’t taste garlic, they were soggy in a sort of soy sauce. Chips were ok though but at £24 for steak pie and my edible plate of chips and a pint and a half it was an expensive meal.
There are good reviews so just have to presume we are too fussy as this site did not meet our expectations
Good points. Near to pub. Dog friendly. Dog walk on site. Quiet. Nice lady in reception who I think has too much to do possibly. The church nearby is a must visit.
Last minute break camping, not had the tent out for about 6 years.
This site was emailed along with around 8 others the Thursday early evening before Easter w/end enquiring availability. The site made contact via a phone call within the hour, .
I hadn't made a list of where & who I'd sent emails too, but thankfully I'd only picked sites around Whitby & I wanted to stay in so when this site owner rang me I had no idea which site! but he needed an answer there & then as he would be phoning the next person on the list. Being a bank holiday I knew I was pushing it for a place so I just asked did it have a sea view??.
Yes was the reply, so I booked & paid over the phone "3 nights, £72, 2 adults, 1 dog, no electric". He then sent a tx with directions, still non the wiser exactly where lol !
Arrived about 5. 30pm, lady at reception pointed to spot where we were to set up. In hindsight wish we had gone back to lady to make sure we weren't taking up too much room as we tried to give the neighbouring campervan their privacy but made sure we left enough room for another tent beside us that they would be next to a little tourer van that looked like it had been there a while.
Anyway once pitched up a gent came along to couple up an electric point ready for a new neighbour he didn't say otherwise so I thought we were safe but later that night a camper van came along trying to get in the spot between us & the tourer, realised next day when we came back from being out all day he also had a large awning to attach, so we ended up being only about 2ft away from each others bedrooms lol "I say bedroom but think they used the awning as kitchen". Anyway like I said before in hindsite I would have camped slightly closer to other campervan.
We did have a sea view. It might have been a mile away lol but we definitely did have a sea view, loved sitting out each morning with a cuppa "sun was blaring" & then on an evening with a glass of wine or a beer.
Lovely clean site, plenty of bins.
Actual shower rooms clean & toasty warm, but let down 2 of the mornings I tried to shower as the water was freezing, was about 8-8. 30 so maybe all the hot water had gone by then, didn't try evenings, but did overhear neighbouring campers saying how cold the water was after their evening shower.
Sorry cant tell you if & what they sell at reception as we only noticed it open the night we turned up, not that we needed anything.
I believe the pub owner also owns the site, so if any problems arise I'm sure help would be at hand quickly.
Ice cream van came on site each evening.
Clean Grassy area to walk the dog. Lots of dogs on site, all kept on leads & well behaved.
Had a meal & drink in the pub "Stiddy" 1st evening, recommend the home made steak pie!. The best pie I've ever had! Large portion, Packed with meat & lovely pastry!. Partner had scampi & looked envious at mine all way through the meal lol.
Was Expecting to see real ale but alas other than bottled speckled hen & bottled black sheep "think it was" that was it, oh & the usual fosters & Carling. Oh! & another lager but forget the name, we actually had one with our meal, that was nicer than the usual 2.
2nd evening we just had the one drink, I had rhubarb/ginger gin & tonic, partner had bottle black sheep & we took away a bottle of house wine for back at the camp, came to around £20.
Site is perfect for us walkers, by the side of the church is a lane that takes you to the Cleveland way, either turn right for whitby or left for staithes, we went whitby, enjoyable walk along the coast & back.
We enjoyed our stay here, perfect base for whitby & surrounding areas, nice & quiet, just how we like it & would happily stay here again for that reason. via mobile
Beautiful tent only site set on a family run hill farm in the Yorkshire Dales, nestled between Ingleborough and Whernside. The Three Peaks footpath runs right through the farm adjacent to the campsite with lots of walks direct from the site from easy strolls to climbing the Three Peaks, and five minutes to the pub!
Tent pitches only, no electric hookups. Toilet and shower block and washing up facilities. Sit, eat and socialise in the old barn, with free wifi, charging lockers, freezer. At weekends the Philpin Snack bar is open for cooked breakfasts, hot and cold snacks and drinks, ice creams, chocolates etc, on other days there are vending machines in the barn. Find out more here
Great site with level parking. Facilities clean, but busy.
We only stayed one night at a cost of £20 including EHU. Despite a quiz night at the 'local' the site was quiet.
We stayed as we wanted to visit Whitby Abbey - rip off -car park by Abbey costs £2 for first hour and £1 per hour subsequently, plus as OAPs cost of entry £7. 10 each.
Wow found this lovely Caravan Camping site. Wonderful views so relaxing. Lovely clean toilets. So friendly, they are like Family. There is a lovely pub called the stiddy in front of the site.
It's only 3/4 mile down hill to Sea front, amazing scenery. If you're into Steam Trains the Guy Builds them in his workshop. Dave runs his in Scarbough 2 foot Gauge you can ride on to sea world.
This site, if you love to Relax, really is Brilliant. In Whitby so much to see from old tall ships harbour and loads more.
Lythe Caravan Camping site thumbs up from me, even has sleeping pods you can hire.
This is the most relaxing site we have ever stayed on. The views are spectacular and it is so peaceful. We were extended the best welcome and the couple who run it are just so lovely. The site is absolutely spotless and the facilities exceptional.
There is a lovely dog friendly pub called The Stiddy within walking distance which serves food and a warm reception. Definitely worth a visit.
We also walked into Sandsend which is so picturesque. There are lots of walks around Lythe, it has lots of history which is worth exploring. When we left we were given a leaflet of all the local walks which we will definitely be returning to complete. Wonderful site with wonderful people.
Have just returned from a 3 night stay at this site and have to say I was very disappointed.
To start with the lane down to the site is full of potholes, not good for the car or the caravan.
The weather was horrendous which admittedly is unfortunate and not the fault of the site, however the drainage is awful and the hard standing pitches are nothing more than a little gravel on a very small pitch. There was no where to park your car as the pitches are so close together, consequently we ended up parking on the grass and churning up already sodden grass. I've stayed on plenty of sites where the wardens would have lost it if we'd done that but no-one seemed to bother! I honestly can't see how the grass will recover over the season- its wrecked!
As if dodging the mud wasn't enough we also had to dodge several mounds of dog muck, most of which was by the water fountain and was subsequently picked up by out friends.
As for the pub, we had planned on eating there and taking shelter however it was only open on the Tuesday night and wasn't serving food. Very disappointing as that was one of the things that attracted us to the site.
On the positive side the showers are clean and the water lovely and hot, the radio is a fab addition that the kids loved.
It's handy for Whitby and the views are amazing but unfortunately this is not enough to make us return.

We have stayed on this site many times. The facilities are excellent.
The showers and toilets are always kept clean and serviced regularly with always plenty of hot water. There is a dish washing area and washing machine and dryer if needed.
There is a bus stop at the end of the lane about 5 minutes walk which runs into Whitby every half hour.
Electricity and showers are all included in the price so no extra charges to consider.
The staff who look after the site are very friendly and helpful and available if you have any problems.
We would definitely recommend this site and look forward to more visits.
What a cracking little site this is, a pleasure to visit, deffo going back. Was on hardstanding overlooking sea, facilities were good ie. Hot showers with heated toilet block, water taps, elsan point all very convenient.
Bus stop outside site to anywhere along the coast you like, was £3 to Whitby single or £5 return then there's The Stiddy pub 100mtrs or so, a proper local pub if ever there was one, very friendly with really nice regulars. Was looked after by the site team very well and look forward to a revisit.
(Nottschip, site owner will understand this ) Access, don't try coming up through whitby to sandsend to lythe with a caravan, motorhome ok as its on par with Sutton bank, you have been warned !, might be ok coming down the hill though as its on a bus route. Come into Lythe from the A171 Whitby to Guisbrough road it's so easy. What a cracking little site ! Owners nice and very helpful.
Facilities well tended as we're the plots. To the reviewer that commented about the holey track from the road these have been filled ! The hardstandings (5) have views across to the Abbey. We were also allowed to put the van either way on the pitch which was nice.
Some of the newer pitches up the track to the Stiddy pub were 16 amp on the main part of the site they seemed to be 10 amp so take a low wattage kettle n toaster or use your gas! Bus service straight outside site to the beach at Sandsend and Whitby. Will I return. Certainly will !
We have stayed on this site several times and have always enjoyed our stay. The wardens are friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble for them. The site is situated close to a regular bus service. The showers and toilets are always spotless and have underfloor heating and background music to make a visit pleasant and private.
We have no negative comments to make and this is one of our favourite sites and would recommend it to anyone. Looking forward to our next visit.
This site could be so much more! Its in a great location, a few minutes from Whitby.
Access, long track full of pot holes, could be sorted with a few chippings.
Lack of water points, none down the bottom (pitch 9) where we were.
Pitches very close together, it was quite when we arrived on Thursday, but come Friday/Saturday it became busy, people were even being pitched between pitches!
It became better on Sunday afternoon/Monday morning.
The site became less packed, not quashed in.
Rest of the week was OK, but to our horror when we returned from a day out on Thursday, a family was pitched on pitch 10, next to ours. Its a long narrow pitch. These campers had put a caravan and awning up, it was under two feet from our folding camper. As I drove down the hill, their dog (one of four) was peeing on our awning!
I complained to the site manager, she went down and told them they must keep their dogs under control, but never moved them! They remained two feet from us, could hear every word.
Site was only half full, could have pitched them anywhere, but two feet from us!
Packed up and left early the next morning (06:00) never got any sleep because of next doors noise and snoring.
We were going to stay on until the following Monday.
Like I said, could have been a cracking site, but will not be going back.
