Morning campers.... (I bet loads of people have said that.......sorry, I'm new).

New member and first post. I am looking for a campsite (preferably a reasonably lively one.....not somewhere with 4 tenst in it) where campfires are allowed.

Pickering, Lockton, Dalby Forrest area is what I am aiming for but not tied to it. Please feel free to advise of anwhere you know of in that general North Yorkshire area and I will check them out.

Thanks guys.

Thanks guys. Really appreciate the feedback. I'll look in to those.

I am currently a very fed up a frustrated city boy who desperatley needs a break :o).

I have been to festivals but not proper camping so I am pretty knowledgedless on the whole subject (locations wise at least). All I want to do is get out of the city for a while, Do some walking, hiking, exploring little places, climbing (nothing too serious), hire a bike and ride through a forest and stuff like that. Basically get my hand dirty and graze my knees like a big kid for a week. This is why I was aiming for the Dalby Forest area.....as it really the only place I am mildly familier with...

...But some of the campsites I have found that do allow campfires are not exactly near the forest but some further north near Goathland. But if I did stay near Goathland....whats that like? and is it far from Dalby Forest anyway? (I will have my car with me anyway).

Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks again.

Great stuff. Thanks everybody.

I'm only 30, pretty agile and full of beens so I should be ok (terrain wise). But some good info. Thanks again.
