Fabulous location with good walking area and views Facilities very clean couldn’t fault it

We had a really lovely stay. The location was fab with some incredible walks and views from the site.The pod was quite spacious and well equipped.The food at the restaurant tasted so good and we ended up eating there a lot. 10/10.Overall, a great stay and we would definitely recommend.

The site itself is good. It is level and sheltered and well looked after, with clear pitches. Although, there was some litter around our pitch in the forest retreat.However. The facilities for campers are bear minimum, there is zero customer service and feels more aligned to the glamping experience.We arrived around 1610, after a long 17mi day. The shop and cafe were closed. Early. Whilst the website does say 'times vary', there were clearly 2 more bookings still to arrive when we got there. The weather was setting in, and my bag was left open to the elements on a shelf, and we had no shelter to cook food. We had very little food, as we'd hoped to get a sandwich in the cafe - thinking it closed at 1700. Overall, it wasnt a terrible experience, but extremely overpriced for a patch of grass and a shower.

I stayed here for a night while walking the C2C trail. I didn't have time to complete the trail and I needed to leave and found that I could walk to Carlton-in-Cleveland (easy 1.5 miles downhill walk) and catch a bus to Stokesley. Details are on this website: https://www.hodgsonsbuses.com/service8089.html. (I asked at the cafe but none of the staff were able to help confirm the information.)The cafe is open during the day but only operates as a bar in the evening on certain days so check the dates on the website. The shop has gifts but unfortunately does not have practical food like bread. So, if you are camping on a day that the bar is not open make sure you bring your own food.The camping area ‘Woodland Retreat’ is surrounded by trees and gets little sunlight, feels damp and is not the most pleasant campsite.It is very expensive compared to the other camping sites on the C2C. They charge more than twice the price of other places and it's not as if there are any special faciliti

The site itself is fine. Perhaps it was bad luck as was a Friday night in summer, but the noise from other campers went on until 1:30 am. In the big field feral kids were shouting and drunk parents doing the same. In the woodland retreat I was surrounded by youths drinking (and drugs from what I could tell) and generally making a racket until the early hours. I tried to ask them to shut up but fell on deaf ears. If you want sleep go elsewhere.

Campsite was easy to find, check in was easy.I had a unpowered pitch in a quiet cluster of trees.All the facilites were working and clean, and the cafe was available if I didnt fancy cooking.Great views across the hills and valleys and a great base to explore from

We had very high hopes when we arrived, the site is lovely with nice facilities. However, despite first impressions, this site is poorly managed. We were pitched in the woodland retreat, clearly stated on the website for small tents however on our first night, the pitch next to us had an oversized 8 man tent which extended into our space leaving us with little privacy. On the second night, this pitch was replaced by a group of 4, who stayed up drinking and playing music until the early hours, along with multiple large groups in the main field with crates of alcohol - feeling more like a festival than a peaceful camping trip. This is despite the campsite imposing a silent rule after 10:30. Also despite no fires/BBQs, multiple groups were doing this which felt very dangerous given the current climate. On either night, we did not see the warden patrolling (as stated on the website) to enforce these rules. Overall, we felt unsafe and exhausted throughout this trip.

Very depressing place. We arrived at 3.50pm and the shop was already closed. The camping pitch was in the most dark and depressing area I have ever come across, no idea why there was a wooden door and fencing blocking it off from the other camping area and it was far from the toilets. We moved our tent to the better area as there was nobody else there. A couple turned up to camp and were upset there was nobody around to get a key for the toilets and anything to eat. We had to lend them our key initially but had to resort to putting the catch on the door so they could use the facilities without disturbing us. It did not feel safe, the whole area is open to everyone which I understand due to the rights of way across the estate but anyone can walk in and pitch up. The only good thing was the washing up room had two sockets so we could charge our phones, which was needed as we were walking the Cleveland way. It was the worst camping experience in my 40 years of camping. Toilets were clea

When we first went to the pod the lock was a bit odd, but we thought it was just stiff but no ,because we got locked in for over 10 minutes which doesn't seem a long time. As we couldnt get a signal on our phones we couldnt ring for help. The door into the toilet was dragging on the floor and we struggled to open it. But I have to say Lucy was great and she got us into another pod that afternoon! I just think these things should be checked more carefully. It didn't stop us enjoying our 5 nights there. All the staff in the shop and restaurant are so lovely and couldnt do enough for us. The meals are excellent. Its just general maintenance really. We've stayed 4 times now and won't stop us returning

The setting at Lordstones is idyllic, we stayed in the Central pod which was perfect as we took small children who had plenty of space to run around and be loud without disturbing others. This place is so peaceful and just beautiful. The staff were fantastic, particularly the team in the restaurant who made our kids feel really special when we went for dinner and breakfast throughout our stay.The pods themselves are a little tired inside, but nothing that would put us off staying again, especially for the price which is so reasonable for a 2 night stay. We're looking forward to returning for another visit!
