Reviewer: Josg 1 review from this member

 Lovely accessible site. Easy access and relatively level park up (depending on which pitch is allocated) facilities only include

Elson, fresh water, and rubbish. No grey waste or toilet /shower facilities.

Easy walking to train station and bus stop. Can also walk into Whitby (about 20 minutes) along path running parellel with railway line.

There is a very friendly pub in the village and also a butcher.

Owner is very amenable and helpful. Family run business

 Lovely site, with lovely owners.

You can walk from the site into Whitby alongside the railway track in about 30 mins.

We had views of the river and could hear the church chiming the hour from where we were which was lovely.

Really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

Reviewer: Ianarayner 102 reviews from this member

 A quiet site. No views however a tidy site. Friendly owner, (or may have been her son / grandson).

No facilities and thought it was a bit pricy at £25 pn. (Believe it's now increase to £30!.

Nice walk along the river to Whitby took about 30 minutes

 Great little site in a beautiful village of Ruswarp.

Very friendly owner who gave us good info on the local area.

Great 20 min walk into Whitby via railway and river path.

You can also take the Cinder track both lovely walks.

Good location and great spot for walking the coastline of Robin Hoods Bay, Whitby, Sandsend and Runswick Bay.

We will definitely returning here.

 Lovely view of the river, 30 mins.

Riverside walk into Whitby or 4 mins on the train, and 5 mins drive to Sainsburys.

Owners very helpful and chatty and the site is well kept.

Only downer for us is that the Bridge inn was unexpectedly closed and we were looking forward to going there. No fault of the site though.

 Small and peaceful very well maintained site in absolutely stunning location next to the River Esk in Ruswarp.

Very helpful, friendly and informative owners.

Basic site with water and EHU. A 20 minute walk into Whitby down the footpath next to the river.

Can highly recommend this little gem and will definitely be back soon.
