 The site was quiet at the time of our visit towards the end of the school holidays.

The toilet block is fairly new and very clean. The showers are free and hot. Good outdoor washing up area. There is also a washing machine and tumble dryer.

There are waymarked walks around the farm and we went on one of them on a previous visit.

There are chickens, donkeys and Shetland ponies, and cows in the barn. There is a small amount of road noise from the busy A170 some distance away, but not too obtrusive.

The site isn't particularly level and you may need to spend a little time levelling up your van.

 My wife and I (both semi retired) dread going away in our motorhome on bank holiday weekends (with the whole world and his dog!), but we made an exception August BH because we had our 2 year old granddaughter staying with us and wanted to treat her to a little break.

So, we went to Cliff Farm because, frankly, it was the only reasonably local site to us we could get in.

But we found it perfect for our needs, although the site was full it was peaceful and not overcrowded in the least, very clean and tidy, nice to get close to some animals and spotless toilet/shower block.

There are a couple of dog walks from the site although we left ours at home on this occasion and you can get the bus from Sinnington half a mile away to go to Pickering or Kirbymoorside. Plus there is an excellent pub, The Fox and Hounds in Sinnington, that takes dogs and has a beautiful beer garden.

The owners were helpful and friendly, all in all couldn't fault it. The only thing I would say is don't expect a shop or a park for the kids, it's not that kind of site, a working farm in beautiful surroundings. Open in winter too.

We shall return, no doubt about it.

 We've just had a four night break at this location.

Despite being a large site [three different fields] the pitches are well spaced, so this allows plenty of room, and we did'nt feel overcrowded.

There are only two loos & two showers per male/female [plus a 'family/disabled'] shower/loo. But the fact that the site consists of relatively few pitches for its size prevented any apparent overcrowding/queuing despite it being Aug. Bank Holiday [and all of the pitches occupied].

The toilets are of the highest standard, and the showers are spacious [and free!] and cleaned daily.

There is a Laundry & drying facilty, although we did'nt use them, so cant comment.

The views are stunning, and I found it a pleasant walk along the lane each morning/evening with our dog.

There is a water tap for every three or four pitches, TBH, we were so near the tap that it wasn't worth using the aqua-roll.

We had fresh eggs for breakfast two of the mornings, and would have brought another half-dozen home with us, if they hadn't been sold out, a bargain at £1 for six.

The view from our awning was incredible, miles & miles across what I assume to be the Howardian Hills, I wished I'd taken my binoculars.

I cant really comment on the 'Child Friendliness' aspect of the site, as there was only the two of us [plus dog]. But I would have no hesitation bringing my 2x Grandaughters here, as they both love animals [horses, poultry & cows] and the 'One Way System' and general layout of the site make it pedestrian friendly.

Previous reviews mention the long approach track being rough, but I've visited far worse, and although its narrow, there are 'passing places', and no nasty bind bends.

Whilst staying, we took a train ride on the North Yorkshire Railway into Whitby, we visited Helmsley and Pickering and took a very scenic drive over the Moors to the Moors Visitor Centre at Danby, we also visited the Sutton Bank Visitor Centre [highly recommended, as the views from Sutton Bank are stunning].

On the dowside, I found the 'Hard Standing' [gravel] pitches hard to peg our awning down [must buy stronger pegs for our next visit, as I could imagine that strong pegs would be needed if the weather was 'windy']. Although to be fair, I realise that I must be in the minority by my prefering 'grass under my feet' in our caravan awning.

Will we visit again??. Most definitely!

 Just returned after a 2 night stay at this site. The site was clean and tidy and virtually empty. There are 2 showers and toilets in the men's and ladies, and a disabled/family shower and were clean and warm, although they could get busy and over run in summer. For us two it was perfect. The site is well laid out and the pitches large with plenty of space between them.

The wifi was faultless over the weekend. Pickering is a short drive away as is Kirby Moorside.

Fresh eggs were offered for sale on arrival.

We will return for another visit as we enjoy the quiet, peacefulness with a few farmyard noises thrown in.

 Stayed here once again for the Pickering War weekend and found the site brilliant for our needs. The pitches are well spaced out and really easy to get into.

The facilities ie toilets, showers are first rate and really clean and tidy. The water and disposal sites are easily accessible. The owners are very friendly and helpful and we have pre booked again for next year.

Also be aware however it is on a working farm so there is cattle noise sometime which for us makes it all the more special.

There is also a long farm type track to gain entrance to the site which is ok but proceed with caution and be prepared to wash your unit when you get home if the weather is wet. All in all a great site and we will return.

No comments on child friendly as no kids with us however there are some farm walks and open space on site so could be ok.

 A peaceful grassy site on a working cattle farm near the village of Sinnington, about 5 miles from the market town of Pickering on the edge of the North York Moors.

The family care about the site and have provided excellent facilities, with toilets and showers cleaned daily. There is a laundry with washer and drier, as well as wash-up sinks with hot water. Fresh eggs, local ice cream and home-made jams and chutneys are on sale.

The site-wide free WiFi internet worked well and was much appreciated.

Three farm-walks have been signposted from the site (ranging from half a mile to 2 miles). Dogs allowed on a lead.

We came for a couple of nights and stayed a week - and we'll be back.

 Good well laid out site all pitches were hard standing with plenty of grass as well.

The toilets/showers were very clean with plenty of free hot water in the showers.

The owners are very friendly and likeable.

You don't have to go very far for water with a tap for every two or three pitches.

The only down side I could see was there was only two toilets and showers which might not be enough in busy times, but it wasn't a prob for us.

There are a few signed walked around the edge of the farm which is a proper working farm.

An added bonus is the free wifi which was very good, I watched a football match on my ipad with no probs at all.

There's a londis supermarket about a mile away or a little further is Pickering with loads of shops etc.

 Good site, level hard standing, friendly owners, excellent facilities that are clean and warm.

Pub in the vilage is a short walk but more of a michelin restaurant than a pub with food so we went in to Kirbymoorside. Incidentally, in Kbymrside, you'll find JB's Spice, a takeaway curry house that is one of the best!

Will definitely be back when it's warmer and take the walk up the hill to Appleton-le-Moors.

£16, with EHU low season, the right price.

 We chose this site due to its location between York and N/East coast. This is a working farm but purpose built touring site, good access although the turn off the main road is easy to miss especially in the dark. Good layout, with plenty of taps and central facilities/elsan point etc. Showers and toilets kept very clean. Owners very friendly and welcoming. Busy little site but not overcrowded, large pitches ample room for awning and car. Weather not the best but expected rain late in the season, site seems well drained with gravel hard standings and roadway. Free wi-fi good speed when connected but intermittent connection. Overall good site, great location would return.

 We loved this site. The price we paid included electric hook up and the showers are free - excellent value. A well kept site with friendly owners who kept it in immaculate condition. The showers were clean and spacious. Plenty of convenient water points. Nice pub in the village just a few minutes away with the most miserable landlord ever. The food looked good but a bit expensive, we didn't eat there as we weren't made to feel welcome. A few miles from Pickering so loads of pubs and restaurants to chose from. Beautiful area and great for getting to seaside and other lovely villages. Nice little walks for the dog. Great eggs when available. We are looking forward to going back to this lovely site.
