Dogs are not allowed on-site, yet if you are yearning for a bit of animal company, feel free to say hello to the farm’s ‘girls’ – friendly hens who like to roam around the fields.

Was just wondering if there are any parking spaces for Motorhomes In Whitby as to not easy to get into Whitby from most sites with out driving in. Even in winter when most of the sites are shut and there are special events on Motorhomes aren’t allowed to park anywhere in the area after 23.00. Most Carparks are stood empty all night when they could be used for a fee for parking over night. Instead of paying someone to drive around issuing fines, you could make a lot more money buy providing us the spaces to park.. And yes we do spend money in the town, we eat at the Pier inn also the Granby but to name a few of the places we eat and drink.
