Just spent 4 nights here in splendid isolation as we were the only people on the CL which is always a bonus! Lovely simple site with great country views - rain permitting... We had a lot of rain during our stay but the field clearly drains well as there were no puddles or muddy bits. As other reviews have pointed out there are some noises from the pigs in the nearby barn but we never found it intrusive and nights were blissfully quiet. Amanda came to welcome us and check all was OK which was a nice touch having been a few CLs where we never met our hosts - not a criticism as we often stay on working farms and they do have other things to do! Amanda was also helpful when we had a problem just as we were about to leave but thankfully we were able to fix it and get on our way. The CL is only a 1 - 2 miles from the A170 so access is easy - it also means it's easy to get to explore the immediate region with Helmsley, Pickering and Scarborough all being within easy reach. There are also some spectacular drives to be had over the North Yorks Moors. All in all, a great CL and one to return to!
