 Just got back from camping here in tent with two dogs and all I can say is what a great camp site this is. There are 'no frills' and this is just what we were looking for, but there is a very friendly welcome, lots of beautiful views and adequate facilities. Yes, it would be better if the toilets were separate to the showers, but, because of the beautiful location, it was forgiveable. Having two dogs, it was great to have the lane across the road to walk into Thornton le Dale as the main road is busy and it is fast and to us not really suitable to walk your dogs on. There is a lot is space and as mentioned, the views were breathtaking. We will definitely return, particularly as we became members of Dalby Forest which is 5 minutes away and which to us was one of the best finds ever. Having a busy working cocker, it has some great walks and we were able to find peace and quiet despite the school holidays. Would highly recommend the Site and the area, but we are biased as we are from Yorkshire :)

Stayed here twice now and it's well recommended. It's a peaceful large site with plenty of space. Access is good even for large caravans or motorhome. Easy to get too and close to Thornton le dale, just east of Pickering. It's about 1. 5 miles walk into Thornton le dale which is a postcard little village with two pubs and numerous cafés and small shops. Dalby forest is on its doorstep and the coast not that far away.
Stephen the site manager is most welcoming and very friendly. No long list of do this and do that just enjoy yourself and be considerate to others. No parking within inches to the white peg just park as you like as there is so much space. Toilets and showers are very clean and washing facilities for plates and pans etc.

Just got back from a 4 day break at This site. This is a quality camp site, clean and tidy. Showers spotless, as was the rest of the facilities. We walked to Thornton Le Dale which is just over a mile and a half away. The best way to walk is straight out of the site cross the road and go down the lane opposite, keep walking until you come to a right turn, follow the road to the right and keep walking. It's brings you out back on the main road about half a mile from the village. Better than walking the whole way on the main road. Takes about 40/60 mins. Had a bar snack sat in beer garden of The Buck, good value and very nice! You can get the bus from the middle of the village all the way to Helmsley, we did this and called at Kirkby Moorside for a few beers on the way back! Very nice place we will be back!

Just returned from a stay over the Bank Holiday Weekend, a warm welcome when we arrived. The site is tidy with generous sized pitches which were flat and well drained. There are two wet rooms which are excellent, it is £1 for the shower. There is a covered area for washing dishes. Thornton le Dale is a short walk away although there isn't a footpath for about half the distance. Thornton le Dale is a lovely village with a few small shops including a Nisa supermarket, butchers and Post Office. There are a few tea shops and three pubs, good food in both the New Inn and the Buck, both have nice beer gardens and are dog friendly. We didn't try the other pub but have been told it is also very good. It was the Scarecrow Festival which seems to be well supported by the local residents and there was also a band performing on the Village Green. The site is well situated for visiting the East Coast and the North Yorks Moors. The only improvement I could suggest is that there should be separate toilets as there is sometimes quite a wait if people are showering saying that we will definitely return.

We stayed at this site for 3 nights in July 2013 and found it to be very clean, friendly, quiet and relaxed.
The pitch sizes were ample and level.
Trying to find a negative to give is difficult but could be picky and say the showers, the reason being that it cost £1 for 5 minutes. I found that to be quite expensive as the time passes quickly and there is no warning and the water just stops.
Other than that I could find no other complaints. We would definitely return and recommend.

We visited this site at the start of June 2013.
We stayed for 2 nights and really enjoyed it, we have a large tent with electric, 2 adults and a little dog.
On the site there are 2 wet rooms which are at a very high standard, the showers cost £1 for 5 minutes. The showers are the best I've seen on a campsite, the only down side is that the toilets are in the same room as the showers so if you need the toilet and both of the showers are occupied then you have to wait, having said that I think I only waited once for a few minutes and the site was quite full. If your in a caravan then you won't have this problem. I do think that the site would benefit from a couple of separate toilet blocks though.
The site is about 1. 5 miles to the village of Thornton le dale and it's a nice walk, there isn't a path on the road but you don't get that much traffic so we just stood to the side if a car came past.
In the village there are some shops, a chip shop and a couple of good pubs, there's the New inn and the Buck inn, both are nice inside and both have beer gardens.
It's a really picturesque village with streams running through and great walks through the woods.
Pickering is also just a 10 minute car drive
The site is well maintained and the manager was really helpful, all in all we loved it and on our departure booked for August bank holiday.
Can't wait

What an absolute gem of a site that has easy access to Malton / Pickering / Thornton le Dale / Whitby / Scarborough / Bridlington / York / Eden Camp and flamingoland.
Fabulous local shops at thornton le Dale inc. Nisa Shop and local butchers.
The site itself was fabulous, very flat and well drained with good washing up ares and newly built toilet and shower facilities that were heated, and internet access was free which was a bonus and showers were £1 for 5 mins.
All in all a fabulous site that we will be visiting again.

Celebrated my 50th birthday weekend of 10-12th May at High Grundon with tent and caravan pitches booked.
Facilities are spotless. Pitches are spacious. Nice views. Location is great for exploring all the delights of North Yorkshire. Thornton is pretty village.
The owner could not have been more helpful in both the booking arrangements and also making the weekend run smoothly. When the wind took the party marquees, they were beyond repair. The owner organised use of the barn with the farmer and it was best party venue ever!
Some of my family/friends stayed in the cottages -handy for everyone to get together. They were of a very high standard.
Have been before and already booked to return. Next time for a peaceful weekend, as the site is usually very quiet!

Stayed here for a long weekend May 10th-12th with a pre booked birthday weekend group of vanners & campers, Very friendly welcome and easy access to spacious level & open site.
Veg prep area, Chemical emptying point, Showers & loos immaculately clean.
Following a minor incident, Steve the owner (& his brother in law next door) were both extremely helpful & accomodating, & made our weekend the best birthday party we could have hoped for.
Really strongly recommend this site to any vanners / campers.
Thanks very much all at High Grundon.

Stayed here for weekend in April and found it to be an excellent site and have already recommended to friends
Field very flat and plenty spaces between pitches
Two toilet/ wet rooms which are immaculate and £1 for shower,
Site is just over mile from Thornton le Dale which is a beautiful chocolate box village.
No path though and need to walk on road but we didn't find road busy.
One of our favourite sites and will return
