Just back from a two night stay at this CL. As all the other reviews have said, it is a beautiful and very peaceful site. Nothing to be heard except a few sheep and birdsong. Unlike other reviews though, we found communication with the owners quite poor – we didn't... Show more

Peace and tranquility.
We spent 7 nights at this peaceful farm site at the end of July. Ideally placed along a quiet country road 2.5 miles from the bustling market town of Helmsley, there are a host of places to visit within a 10 mile radius of the site and numerous walks right... Show more

Beautiful location - peaceful and quiet
We were welcomed on arrival to this beautiful quiet site next to a working farm with a few young lambs in the nearby field. It is a wildlife haven with owls and many birds in the nearby sheltered trees. Walks and access to stunning moorland scenery are wonderful. Thank you... Show more
