A super CL
I imagine everyone has a vision of their ideal CL. Summertree Farm comes pretty close to matching my ideal vision. Bob and Bernadette are the perfect hosts - a warm greeting, lots of local information, nothing too much trouble but will leave you to relax in peace and quiet once you have settled in. The field is extremely well tended, the grass is kept short, the field is flat with good views and has a very rural feel. There is ample space between pitches, so privacy is not a problem. The facilities are good, clean and well maintained. Some people might feel the toilet is a little remote from the field but that wasn't a problem for us. Access to local places of interest is good. Thornton le Dale is just two miles away, with Whitby, the North York Moors (and railway), Scarborough, Malton and York all easy and very picturesque drives away. A word of warning though, walking and cycling on the road outside the site (to Thornton le Dale) requires care due to lack of a footpath and quite a few bends which hide you from on-coming traffic. Bob and Bernadette do know alternative off-road routes though, so just ask them.
In summary, a great CL, which we would have no hesitation in using again.
