 Great to get away to such a lovely part of the country. Could only get ehu tent pitches, but they were large and close to the shower block. These had hot water in plentiful supply.

The washing up facilities were good, too. It was fairly pricey, but school holidays and seaside so don’t begrudge it.

The reception staff were very helpful and it was good to have bricks to raise the bbq. Key code entry and rules about quiet times were good.

My little grandson found the play park intimidating - lots of big children, but this isn’t anything the park can control. A play park for the smallest over on the pod side would be a good addition.

I would visit again.

 I stayed here with my son, aged 22. The campsite was pretty full, but there was plenty of room on the overflow field where we were told to pitch. No sea views from there unfortunately, but pleasant distant views all around. The showers were always very comfortably warm, but you definitely need to watch out for the five-minute cut-off with no warning!

Many families were staying on the site and so the shower blocks were busy and noisy. This I suppose was inevitable, but the site operators should have made sure that the liquid soap in the dispensers was kept topped up. It ran out on the second evening and was still missing in the morning. So anyone using the toilets that evening and the following morning was unable to wash their hands with soap. And this in covid times. Ugh!

The good points about the site were the lovely walk down a little valley to Robin Hoods Bay, the beautiful rural location of the farm and the precise instructions and rules given out on arrival which sought to limit any bad behaviour on the site. Still, one dad in our field had to walk over and complain to a group of young people playing music and singing after 10. 30. They stopped immediately after that.

Overall, a good experience in view of the pressure of having so many people on the site. It was quite expensive, but we were glad to get in anywhere at short notice. Other places we looked at were even dearer. Peak times, I suppose.

 We stayed two nights at Middlewood Farm. It's a nice site with good, clean facilities. We were placed on the first pitch to the larger field where the hardstanding pitches are located which is a little hemmed in by hedgerows.

The grass side, by the farm itself, just looked a bit more "homely" but we wouldn't have realised this at the time of booking. Back to our actual pitch, the EHU point was a long way from the first pitch. Fortunately we'd got two cables that connect together otherwise either cable on it's own simply wouldn't reach (not sure how long they are, I'd guess 20 to 25m each!).

The campsite toilet/shower facilities were kept quite clean and although the showers are included it states there's a 5 minute timer on them so typically I was covered in shower gel and shampoo when the time ran out! Seems a bit of an odd system that you can't just switch it back on to finish your shower.

I think there were a couple of minutes delay before I could get it started again. I understand saving water etc but I literally needed another minute or two but ended up staying for the full 5 minutes, so 3 minutes wasted water? Surely the push-button style activation would be better here?

It's a nice, 5-10 minute walk through the fields to the bottom of Robin Hood's Bay where you can get straight on to the beach or into the pubs for a swift half. We did both! We managed to miss a heavy downpour while in the Smuggler's.

There's a disused railway route runs right by the back of the campsite. Perfect for running/cycling to Ravenscar or north towards Whitby. The Cleveland Way also runs along that stretch of coast but unfortunately bikes aren't allowed on that.

We had a lovely meal and a pint in the Fylingdale Inn just a short walk into the village. From there we walked down to RHB again as the crowds had all gone, before returning to the site. Lots of things are easily accessible from Middlewood Farm and it's such a stunning section of coastline that I'm sure we'll be back sometime.

 This is a lovely campsite with good facilities, clean showers block and washing up area,

Pitches nicely spaced (tent for us) plenty of good walks around the area from leaving the campsite, either down through the farm field to Robin Hoods Bay, a right turn along the cinder path towards Ravenscar or a left turn from the farm to the top end of Robin Hoods Bay.

We chose this place for these walks this time.

Have been a couple of times before and have not been disappointed.

Reviewer: Blakeys7 22 reviews from this member

 Stayed here for four nights in June 2021.

Firstly, do you homework on arriving at this site and do not come through the village with a caravan as it is a nightmare!

We made the mistake of following a sign from Whitby for the caravan park which took us down roads not really suitable for caravans. Obviously this is not any fault of the caravan site, however perhaps something explaining the best route on the website would help.

On arrival, keep your eyes open for the little sign stating reception as we didn't see it and overshot the entrance and had another nightmare turning around.

Once you have made it safely in the park, the pitches are large hard standing with electric so as described. Water was by the shower block, although you had to keep your hand on the tap for it to run. Found another though we had a normal tap.

Toilets and showers fine, although didn't use them.

Lovely walk into Robinhood bay through farmers fields.

Short walk into the village with shops and pub.

Would stay here again when my car as recovered from all the hill starts and steep declines!

 Lovely campsite for all ages. Beautiful surroundings. Love the fact that there is a coded barrier and no access after 10. 30pm and no noise after 11pm.

Showers lovely and warm but could be a bit cleaner & more sockets. Lovely walk to the beach at robin hood bay, great for bikes and Prams very accessible. Local bus to Whitby & Scarborough. Local shop & pub close by.

Our first visit but Will definitely be visiting again & recommending to friends.

Reviewer: Lopo 10 reviews from this member

 We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 nights here. We have stayed here before and things have much improved, since our last visit 9 years ago. We had a nice large pitch with EHU.

The toilet block was fully open, and kept clean, even when the site was full. The walk down to RHB was good, just a bit off putting when the Steers (male bovines) were on the path, then laid down on the path, in the dark on the walk back up.

We were lucky with the weather all week, if you want to eat in any pub etc, you need to get booked in early, otherwise you will find it difficult to get in anywhere, due to social distancing.

We tried to book into Fylingdales Inn, there was no availability at all, any evening. The sky on a clear night here is spectacular, we saw many shooting stars.

BBQ's are allowed, there are bricks for BBQ stands. We will be back.

 Stayed here a few times in the past and enjoyed it.

Site is very clean toilets and showers well appointed and kept clean,

One little moan? we were placed next to a young family who were in a tent and there was some noise (i fully understand a young family can be noisy) so I asked to move the van to corner that seemed to be vacant? I was told that that particular ground was boggy and there was no alternative so we stayed in place. So then went for a walk and on return saw that a van had been allocated the area that we requested. MMMMMMMMM I'm left wondering if it was just couldn't be bothered to change us or the new guy didn't prebook and wonga fever took over??????/

Still a nice place to stay

Reviewer: Calpyline 6 reviews from this member

 Not the best site we’ve stayed on but not the worst either. Certainly not a cheap option but the facilities were sufficient for 3 nights camping with hookup.

Pitch size was fair, showers were hot, hairdryers and sockets in large toilet/ shower block.

Easy walk down to village and beach and other longer and beautiful walks from the site too including a cinder track perfect for bicycles.
