Just back from a week on this lovely CL. It's difficult to add to the previous comprehensive reviews by "Wherenext" and "CaroleJay", suffice to say that it is a very well managed site, owner very friendly and accommodating. Plenty of places of interest, obviously Whitby for the statutory fish and chips to be "shared" with the over friendly seagulls. Thankfully we were not attacked. We managed to visit 3 NT and 4 English Heritage properties. North Yorks steam railway including the station at Goathland for Harry Potter fans and the village itself at Goathland for Heartbeat fans. For cyclists and walkers there's plenty of routes including the cinder track between Whitby and Scarborough. If you want totally clear views of the valley and the Abbey would suggest you ask if the pitches furthest from the road end of the field are available. Happy to recommend and would visit again.
