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.

All reviews featured on Campstead.com have been submitted by genuine customers who have stayed at the park.
My first time there and we where well impressed with the site and facilitys .great food at the cafe.staff very professional. Loved it.i will be back.
We arrived to a very friendly reception. The campsite is large spacious and well maintained. Toilet blocks are outstanding, modern, clean and well set out. Oakwood Cafe is dog friendly and has a good range of homemade cakes and food. Only downsides are the very early noise from bird scarers from the surrounding area and the grey waste disposal point size for motorhomes.
Thank you for leaving us a review - your lovely comments will be shared with the team. There is a bird scarer approx 4 to 5 fields away on a neighbouring farm. This is temporary so once the crop is up and away it will be removed.
Stayed here quite a few times, and am always impressed with how nice, clean and tidy the friendly helpful staff keep this caravan park , it’s in a great location, has a good shop, nice pitches, wonderful cafe, great shower block. All I could hope for… really excellent. Looking forward to my next visit already

Brilliant site well kept and extremely lovely staff would highly recommend
Thank you so much for your feedback. We very much look forward to you staying with us again.Dianne
Immaculate and very clean. It was quiet and not overly busy which helped. Staff very helpful when we had gas bottle issues.
Lovely site with very clean facilities including family bathrooms, friendly staff and nice little cafe. Vale of Pickering always make the site look so pretty during the festive season. Nearby places to visit are fab too, Pickering itself where you could take the Steam train, Thornton Le Dale, Dalby Forest, Helmsley or you could head to the coast either. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back again.
4th visit to the site, first for Christmas though, as always welcoming staff, exceptional cleanliness and lovely grounds. This really is a peaceful place to stay, the site is really well maintained and in a lovely ideal location.
Absolutely stunning site, had a five night stay, we were late arriving, quick phone and everything sorted, no problem. Facilities were amazing, we are already planning another trip…..
