Why stay here ...
Poverty Cottage CL site is set within the North Yorkshire Moors National Park with magnificent views of the Yorkshire coast, a peaceful 4 van site with the charms of Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay nearby. Close to the Cleveland Way coastal path and the disused railway line that ran from Whitby to Robin Hoods Bay making it perfect for walkers.
2 miles from Whitby you can wake up to the amazing view of Whitby Abbey.
Explore the charms of Whitby or just a short drive away to the picturesque Robin Hood's Bay, Runswick Bay and Staithes with beautiful beaches.
Heading out of Whitby the Esk Valley full of woodlands, pretty waterfalls and pleasant dales that sweep up to the open moors. The village of Goathland, made famous by the Heartbeat series, is also a short drive away through the stunning landscape and nearby at Grosmont, a ride can be enjoyed on the nostalgic steam train line to Pickering, one of the most scenic preserved lines in Britain.
Close by the villages of Hawsker and Stainsacre both have pubs serving excellent food.

First Rate CL site
Poverty Cottage
This is our second stay at Poverty Cottage within a month. Jo could not anymore welcoming, first class hosts. Amazing walks from site and a quick drink at the Whitby Brewery before heading back to motorhome. View amazing and site is clean and tidy.
Thanks Jo for a wonderful stay.
This site is what a quality CL should be
Poverty CottageWe wanted a peaceful, well maintained site with good views and easy access to the coastal path. We got all those, and a warm welcome too. We like to use local buses where possible. There is a good bus route about 20 minutes walk down a quiet road. Highly recommended. (And if you like a beer or two, I agree with other reviews - try the wonderful Brewery close to the wonderful Abbey)

Superb site and friendly hosts
Poverty Cottage
We stayed at Poverty Cottage site for 4 nights in August. Received a very friendly welcome from the couple and showed us to our pitch. The views across to Whitby Abbey are lovely with various walks to local attractions including Whitby, The Abbey, Robin Hood's Bay and the local supermarkets!
We would definitely stay here again if near Whitby as of the 4 sites we stayed on our trip (Bamburgh down to Whitby) this was the best.
