Perfect peaceful get away.

Just back from my third visit this year. Perfect basic CL with lovely views and beautiful surroundings. Close to Whitby, Staithes, Saltburn etc., lovely walks, plenty of pubs offering good food. Easy access and well kept grassy field, just what a CL should be.

A great place to stay, views, etc. There was no welcome and we never saw anyone during our 2 day stay. A dog barked in the house as we approached. A notice on the door asks you to put fee in honesty box. The septic tank was a hole with a tin sheet cover and no tap/hose to rinse. We had to scout around for a bin; no recycling. Fee increase of 20% from website. All felt a bit weird.

Response from the CL Owner:

Thank you for your feedback with regards to your recent stay at the site. Hawthorn Farm is first and foremost a working farm with a basic site available for caravans to pitch. It’s a simple site for those who just want a peaceful location with a great view. We leave guests to enjoy their break without interruption. There is a tap available at the septic tank, it may have been that you approached the wrong section of the tank. Thank you for asking about the possibility of recycling, unfortunately at this time we are unable to accept recycling beyond that of the farm house itself. We are hoping to provide at information sheet for those staying at the farm in the future as the owner is often out working on the farm.

Perfect for Family Holiday

Hawthorn Farm
We enjoyed nine days here and would definitely recommend it. A bit of a bumpy drive but great grassy space, fabulous views of the sea and countryside around. Septic tank is down the track by the house, but easily accessible. Easy access to Saltburn for surfing and Whitby and lots of gorgeous coastal villages in between, especially Staithes, Runswick Bay beach was fantastic, especially for a late evening stroll. Saw the farmer once who was very friendly. Just what a CL is all about, thank you.

Lovely Peaceful CL

Hawthorn Farm
This was a lovely CL for us. Grass was short, views were lovely. Site is surrounded by countryside yet only a few miles from lovely local beaches on one side (Staithes, Runswick Bay, Sandsend and Whitby and moors on the other side. Easy to level the caravan. Good TV signal for BBC channels but could not get ITV. Site is large enough and reasonably priced. The toilet waste emptying is a short walk away down a hill so we tended not to wait till it was too full. We have a reactive dog so were concerned about previous comments regarding wandering dog. The comments are fairly old and I can say there were no issues with a farm dog. There was a dog which stayed with the farmer/in the farm house a little way away from the site. There was never any dog wandering alone and no dog entered the caravan pitching area (other than dogs with caravanners). The entrance track is a single lane but it is not very long. We were leaving late afternoon so to avoid any issues my partner just walked up to the top of the lane to check there was nothing approaching then I set off. The site road is extremely quiet so it is highly unlikely you will meet another van entering/leaving. However, at the top of the lane the main road is straight with good visibility so no issues if you did have to wait for another van leaving the lane. The farmer was very helpful if needed but not at all intrusive. We are so pleased we tried this site and will definitely be back.
