Very well maintained and loved. Wes and Sarah the owners were away for most of this, but Hazel did a wonderful job of looking after everyone on the site. Nice and peaceful just what we needed.
Our stay was on the deluxe hard standing pitch, however the only issue we had was that our piping was not long enough to attach to the water point, however, for our stay there was no-one on the next pitch so we were able to use their point. We have fed this back to Wes and Sarah who said that they will have a look at it.
2 Pubs in the village. A great butchers. Fish & Chip shop The General Store is a small Post Office with only a few bits and bobs. If you need a larger shop, there is a Co-Op in Staithes, A new Asda in Skelton and in Whitby a Sainsburys & a Lidl.
Overall, we loved it. The Dogs loved it.
It was a joy not to be on a campsite with the noises of Scooters/Roller Skates/Bikes/Footballs being kicked around being heard at all times.
We loved this campsite! We chose it because it is dog-friendly, but we will be going back to it for many other reasons too.
The pitches were spacious and well organised, and the ground wonderfully soft for the tent pegs. The grass was in excellent condition and felt 'bouncy' underfoot. Free range chickens and ducks (with a duck pond) added to its charm.
The facilities were great too, complete with a communal washing machine and fridge freezer. The toilet/shower block was clean and well maintained, with no fee for showers. My only (minor) criticism is that a couple more showers would be useful at peak times. There was even a communal lounge room (with WiFi and a selection of local interest leaflets) - this would've been very useful if it had rained during our visit.
We found the site to be relatively quiet, compared with other campsites I have visited, perhaps due to the spacious pitches.
The site is very close to the village. We didn't have chance to sample the pubs, but we found the post office shop well stocked with essentials, and the chips from the chippy were excellent. There are dog-friendly walks from the site, and the beach is a 20 minute(?) walk away.
Finally, the people who run this site and lovely and go out of their way to make sure visitors enjoy their stay. We're already planning our next visit.
Been coming here for a few years now, (though we had missed the last 2)to find it had been taken over by a lovely couple, from Pat and Nigel.
BUT it is not a quiet site now, as children are allowed and we had a field in witch football was played 8am and night as well as screaming and running around we were very saddend by this and decided to go a day earlier just in case any more turned up!
The have kept the place spotless as it as been, and
We wish them all the best but we feel we must look elsewhere for a quieter site in the future.
Spent early bank holiday weekend on this lovely site on fully serviced pitch with fantastic views. Good clean facilities, very friendly owners who have only been there a couple of months. Site location excellent for walking and local bus service. Village has 2 friendly pubs with real ale, tried & tested fish & chip shop (delicious), butchers & local store. Will certainly go back again. PS tent facilities looked excellent.
We are fairly new to touring but this is the best site we've seen so far. Everything is beautifully clean and tidy. Although in the centre of the village, it is extremely quiet and the view is lovely. Easy access to Staithes, Runswick Bay, Whitby and Robin Hoods Bay with glorious countryside all round. We ate in the Brown Cow - very friendly with great, reasonably priced home cooking. If Wes and Sarah continue as they've begun they will make this a great success. Highly recommended!
Stayed here whilst walking the Cleveland Way and must say what a lovely site, lovely and roomy. The views are great and the facilities were very clean and modern. There is a summer house on the site, although I never used it.
The owner was very friendly and the price for a tent was about the average.
The fish and chip shop is handy and a short walk away. I never used any of the pubs in the High Street.
I would camp here again, if I did the Cleveland Way again.
Stayed on this site over easer and expected it to be packed. What a nice surprise. There were a few caravans and motorhomes there, but not crowded at all. Place is under new ownership now, but the high standards seem the same. Excellent facilities and the showers were free- don't know if that's a permanent change or not. We had electric hook up, and it did trip on two occasions (don't think it was down to us) but this was rectified within minutes both times. Tried both pubs. Ate at the brown cow and the food was good. Pleasant village, in easy reach of other places of interest. Only saw one child on the site so it was lovely and peaceful. Would definitely stay here again.
Yet another great weekend away. What a brilliant site, with owners who really care! Alot of water underfoot but that did not spoil the break. Facilities so bright, clean and warm. Sampled fish and chips from the local chippy, very tasty and fresh. Useful info on local walks in the area. We had a great Saturday walking along part of the Cleveland Way. Have booked for week in 2013. Thank you Pat and Nigel.
Our first visit to this site - we found it lived up to our expectations (good reviews previously)- well run by the owners, very tidy and clean, all facilities in good working order and decent condition. Bathrooms always fresh smelling & spotlessly clean. Good area for washing/drying/freezer etc, with helpful local information on things to do/see in the area.
The pitches were adequately spaced, grass cut and relatively dry and bog-free. All other users were quiet and considerate, many owned dogs (like ourselves), some were 'frequent guests' - always a good sign. Local store and butcher very handy - a short trot up the lane, 2 local pubs serving food (did not try, but heard good reports), and a Fish & Chip shop (we did sample = very tasty!). Lovely cliff walks for miles and miles, with the option of return by bus if you are flagging; the dogs thoroughly enjoyed (as did we!).
Highly recommend for those wanting peace & quiet. We will certainly return! Thanks Pat & Nigel - your site is a credit to you both
We stayed on this site in their rented smaller tourer, as we wanted to try before we considered buying one. The site then was advertised as 'predominantly adults' but the lady was happy for us to come with our children as long as they were well behaved.
The site was in a near perfect location (I won't repeat the other reviews) but staithes and runswick bay were enough to bring anyone back to this lovely area! Super village facilities: 2 pubs, post office, shop, fish and chip shop.
We DID end up buying a tourer after we tried theirs (it was a little tired but ideal for what we wanted and very reasonable priced). We were a little put off returning to the site because of the 'adults' rule. Quite by chance I stumbled across the site again online and note that the 'adults' rule appears to have been removed from their website, I also note that the site appears to be under new ownership. I wish I'd seen this earlier in the season as it would been a real contender for this years bookings if I had known this. One for next year I hope though!
Just come back from an excellent weekend break. Such a well set up clean and well organised site. Plenty of room between vans. Toilet/Shower so clean, bright and really good value. Washing up facilities again so well organised and in full working order. The owners make you so welcome and are always busy keeping the site up to their obviously very high standards.
It has to be said that it is very dog friendly and our dog enjoyed the stay just as much we did.
Had a lovely peaceful 3 days at serenity. The weather was perfect. Owner showed us to the field and gave us the option of where we wanted to pitch. The field we were in was on a slope, with furrows, but because we pitched our little tent by the side of the hedge it didn't make any difference.
The toilets are lovely well maintained and kept clean. You need to pay for showers, hairdryers and electric for tongues, straighteners etc, so take a few 20p pieces. You also need to pay 10p for hot water, for washing up, but we just did ours with the extra kettle water, by our tent. There is recycling for your waste, and in the utility area there are books and magazines to read, we sat here and read a little at night, as our lighting in the tent wasn't so good. We walked into runswick bay, down the hill, and onto the sand. Had a cuppa and a slice of cake in the lovely cafe, at the bottom of the hill overlooking the sea.
All in all a lovely friendly campsite, but for us it was the peace and quiet that secured it, and the opportunity to explore the beautiful surroundings
Just had a week at this camp site it is a quiet site which we loved.
The only downside which we found was the camping field was very uneven they do have a camping field at the bottom but this has not electric so if your not to bothered about a electric hook up and a bit of a walk to the toilet’s ask to go down there.
It cost 20p for the showers now this last for about 4-5 minutes which we founds was enough time but beware the clock starts ticking down as soon as you put your 20p in.
Washing up room hot water is 10p now this runs all the sinks in there!.
The site is kept clean all the time by the owners.
In the village they have a post office, Butchers, Hair dressers, Fish & chip shop which we found very good and two pubs.
Just returned from what was only our second outing in our newly acquired tourer. Serenity was easy to find and we didn't have any problems accessing the site, even though it is a bit narrow. We were warmly welcomed by the very friendly owners who directed us to a level pitch at the bottom of the touring field. Our cable wasn't long enough to reach the hook-up so the owner lent us his extension. There was water and bins nearby, but it would have been handy if there was also waste disposal, instead of having to drag the container back to the main toilet/shower block.
The toilets and showers were very clean and never crowded, with soap and hot water in good supply. There are two pubs within a short walk. The Badger Hounds is nearest, good selection of beer including cask, good prices for food and drink. We looked at the menu with a view to eating there the following night but were told they were hosting a wedding party so no food. The night we were there (Friday) they had loud music and the Karaoke was about to follow, didn't stay. Next was the Brown Cow, friendly barmaid and a few locals round the bar, we soon got chatting. Went back following night to eat and really enjoyed it, food and wine well priced and very good service.
The site is well placed for Staithes, Port Mulgrave and Runswick Bay, a good circular walk on a fine day. Scaling reservoir is nearby with sailing, bird watching hide and a footpath right round. I'm sure we will visit this site again. Lots to see in the area and Whitby just 9 miles away, the bus runs through Hinderwell if you want to leave the car behind.
Returned home from site today, weather has been very kind,
Site is on a slight slope but this caused no problem with my tent ( large )
Toilets, wash facilities and showers spotless at all times, dishwash area absolutely great,
Nigel and pat are around the site at all times and go to great lengths to ensure site is as it should be,
The view from the site is spectacular,
Nearby is 2 public houses, a chip shop and shop and post office,
Convenient for whitby, redcar, lyle, staithes and goathland ( adensfield ),
Looking forward to staying on site again next year,
