Peace and Quiet

Just spent 5 nights at this lovely site, a chance to meet up with some friends and have a wander round Whitby on Goth weekend. Nice and easy to find with a long, quiet access road. A warm welcome at reception, info given and payment made. Plenty of pitches to choose from, found a spot in one of the circular glades, fabulous big pitches, no weeds, well gravelled and level. Friends arrived and selected adjacent pitches. It wasn't until I had pitched up, settled down when I realised I had chosen an area with no EE or TV reception, the site wifi didn't reach that area either. Not a huge problem but one to be mindful of. My friend had reception on her phone though on Vodaphone. There is no toilet or shower block, which could be a problem for those who don't use their on-board facilities. It's about 5 miles to Whitby from the site, so having transport is a must if you want to do the sites. The park and ride is great value for money, runs every 15 minutes and well worth the hassle free parking. I can recommend doing the Rail Trail walk starting at Goathland then about 3.5miles walk to Grosmont (do it that way otherwise there are more up hill parts if coming from Grosmont!) There is the added bonus of a pub right next to the train station at Grosmont to quench your thirst whilst waiting for the steam train to ride back to Goathland. We had a lovely day, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Back to the site. It's in a very quiet area, no road noise. There is no playground and I wouldn't really recommend it for families. There is a small crazy golf pitch and a boules area, clubs, balls and boules can be hired from reception. We had a lovely afternoon playing boules...please note, drinking wine is compulsory whilst playing! The site is beautifully maintained and a credit to the wardens. Booked again for the Whitby Regatta and looking forward to returning.
