Camping

A relaxing campsite near Scarborough

Looking for spacious, allocated areas to pitch your tent? We have 20 spacious, flat camping pitches. You can take your pick from our two camping fields.

One is ideal for families as it shares the children’s play area. Pitches on this field are large (10m x 10m) for a maximum occupancy of up to 8 people per pitch. These pitches are perfect for the campers who like to build big and bring it all!

Our other camping field is in a quieter location with smaller pitches (4m x 3m) for a maximum occupancy of 4 people per pitch. These pitches are perfect for the more traditional campers who travel light – best of all it is also closer to the pub and restaurant at The Downe Arms. There is no electric hook up on any of our camping pitches.

As we are a quiet campsite, we do not accept group bookings. We also enforce a quiet time across the site at 10pm. However, if you want to stay up later and toast marshmallows till dawn, our sister site is just a stones throw away at Campsite — North Yorkshire Water Park

Camping pod convenience

Our purpose-built wooden camping pods offer a truly unique camping experience. Forget the hassle of erecting and striking your tent. All you need to bring is your camping and sleeping equipment!

Our simple camping pods sleep up to 4 people. There’s enough space for two double sized air mattresses or camp beds. These fantastic little pods have power sockets, heating and lights.

Thanks to their fantastic insulation, the camping pods are cosy in the winter and cool in the summer. A window and locking doors offer extra ventilation in hotter weather.
