My wife and I have been visiting Castlebeckfarm for many years, and have never failed to leave it without feeling better for the experience. From the first visit, the welcome from Ian and Katie has always been a warm one, and we have found the site a fine base for visiting North Yorkshire. Scarborough is not far away, as are the moors and the countryside. We have particularly enjoyed the wild life around us, and on our recent visit our bird table was visited by no less than 14 species, including the Great Spotted Woodpecker, the Nuthatch, and a flock of Goldfinches to name but a few. Harwood Dale deserves a visit if you have not been before, and once experienced, you are likely to return.
