Our 5 star holiday park is owned and run by the Stockdale family. We have been providing touring and camping holidays since 1985. We are a farming family who diversified into tourism and originally opened with 5 caravans in the corner of the field. We have steadily grown over the years into the award winning park that we are today. With continual investment we work hard to ensure our grounds and facilities are kept in tip-top condition so that our guests can have a memorable stay.
Our grassed camping areas at The Vale of Pickering are all level and can accommodate most tent sizes. As well as having camping pitches on the main park we also have an adjoining camping field. Some pitches for tents have electric hook up (6 amp) but these are limited in number. 6 amp hook ups are suitable for low wattage appliances only.
Our spacious all-weather touring pitches are suitable for touring caravans, motor-homes, camper vans and trailer tents up to a maximum length of 27ft. Pitches are level and well drained. We have 2 chemical disposal points and a drive-up motor home waste water point.
We pre-allocate pitches on booking and will always try our best to meet any requests made. Touring pitches have a 10amp electric hook up supply. Some touring pitches overlook the children’s play area and several are close to the shower block. Our centrally heated wash-rooms are situated in a central location within the park.
Our licensed onsite shop is open daily and caters for most needs, stocking basic necessities, children's toys and a small range of caravan and camping equipment. The local butcher supplies us with tasty bacon and sausages and we also stock free range eggs from a local supplier.
Our surrounding area really is 'Gods Own County' and is very special to us. We love to share our knowledge of the local area which in turn helps you to plan your days out to get the most out of the time you spend with us. There really is something for everyone including the coastal towns of Scarborough, Whitby, Filey, Bridlington, the stunning North York Moors and historic market towns of Pickering, Malton and Helmsley.
We have a host of popular attractions nearby including The North York Moors Railway, Dalby Forest, Flamingo Land and Castle Howard to name but a few. We are committed to stocking local produce in our shop and cafe wherever possible supporting our local producers and makers. You will be spoilt for choice when it comes to dining out. Our local village pub The Cayley Arms, Allerston is just 1.25 miles from our park and the Coachman Inn, Snainton is 3 miles from the park offering excellent food and drinks.
We invite you to relax and share with us our 'Happy Place'.
All of our pitches are level and well drained. Touring hard-standing pitches have a 10amp electric supply.

Excellent showers. Free internet that we could get while parked up. Fish & chip van visits every Saturday which was very good. Dedicated dog walking area which was also very good. Really liked the park & would stay there again.
Hi Paul, Really pleased to read this wonderful feedback of the site, we look forward to welcoming you back again in the future!Caitlin :)
We love Pickering & Whitby & this is a great place to stay for both. We are only sorry that we had to leave a day early to get home before Storm Austen.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review your stay here with us! We are so thrilled to see that you found it to be worthy of 5 stars and we certainly look forward to welcoming you back (minus the storm perhaps) next time!Caitlin :)
Facilities good clean and tidy, staff polite and helpful, toilets and showers second to none. Site a little out of the way for someone not wanting to drive.Cafe good, as we came in October but not open a great deal .Fish and chip van once a week. Good dog walk.Would benefit from some fully serviced pitches, generally well run ,as we have been numerous times we are aware of the small issues. Good far out ways the bad

We are pleased that you have chosen to stay with us numerous times so far, and will pass on the lovely comments about the staff politeness and facilities.

Caitlin :)
