Middlewood Farm Holiday Park Reviews

One week at Middlewood Farm

We have just spent one week at Middlewood Farm and we have a mixed review. We do not have a dog and we do not dislike them, there are rules to keep dogs on leads but some owners consider this not to apply to them, we witnessed a few dogs not on leads and a dog marking its territory on an awning. If I had reported it, I could have been considered a dog hater and the owners should police the rules but we didn't see anyone checking the site. Some reviews were poor on the W.E. and shower facilities but we found them suitable, clean and the showers hot. We never had to queue so I can't see why people say there are not enough. My only comment is that although they are cleaned daily, the floor could do with a deep clean and the mats had seen better days. The site is well situated for Robin Hoods Bay, Whitby and Scarborough. We would advise when booking to be clear on the pitch size required, we booked hard standing because of the weather, but found our pitch (No 10) far too small even for our 2 berth van, our car had to go in a pod parking spot. After all that, we would recommend Middlewood Farm and would stay again. We found the lady on reception polite and informative and the facilities good enough.

Thank you for your review. As regards your statement that we should "police" the site. It would not be acceptable to other people if we did that. We do expect guests to take some responsibility for their dogs. If they do not, then they will be spoken to.

Really lovely!

Excellent facilities, everything was really clean!

Bliss

Little pitch issue but that was solved instantly and with no hesitation. Great pitch in touring area, not beside the kids park. Everything was easy. The shower block was close by and clean. Campers should also take ownership to ensure they leave toilets, sinks etc clean. Butchers was a 10 min walk. We had pizza on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Shop at the top of bank sell breakfast buns. We had Sunday lunch in the pub which was great value and very tasty and only 10 min from the site. The bus back from Whiby was the X93 and it was £2 for a single.

Thank you so much for your "Blissfull" Review. Comments like yours is what makes all the hard work worthwhile.

Very good

Fab position for Robin Hood's Bay and Whitby and I'm sure there were other places nearby. Everything you want for a relaxing place. The only fault was the WIFI, I paid to have WIFI for my granddaughter but could not receive it unless I was stood at reception, I did not mind paying if I got connection.

Thank you for your review. I am glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. When you were staying with us, BT were having problems with the broadband. If you had come to reception and let us know, we would have refunded you.

Camping pod experience

We had a lovely stay in the camping pod. Really comfy mattresses. Good sized fridge, microwave and kettle and the heater was lovely. We're used to camping so this felt like luxury to us. Facilities lovely and clean. Plenty of showers and hot water. Gorgeous walk to Robin Hood's Bay and a quick drive to Whitby. Thank you, we had a great time

Only stayed one night as I only had 2 days off, however, it's a nice, quiet site and clean. Will book again in the summer.

Pre Easter break

Good location, the walk to Robin Hoods Bay was easy. Bus route to Whitby and Scarborough was regular. The facilities were clean. The pub in the village was a good walking distance and the food was ok.

Family of 4 short break

I absolutely loved it with 2 young children. The reception team were very friendly and really helpful. Pods are simple, clean and comfortable. Toilet block and showers again very clean, will definitely be back. 10 minutes walk to Robin Hoods Bay either over the fields or on the road. Great little place

Good location for Robin Hood's Bay

Good. I think there should be some bins near where you camp, like for food waste when you wash up and for dog mess. The sink we used was full of food but if there was a bin there, people would hopefully use it. Saw the lady who cleaned daily, she was lovely. Bath was good for £1 and there were free showers. The local shop 5 mins away was adequate.

Few days away

Had a lovely stay here. We had some snow flurries but they were overnight. We even managed to sit out in chairs as the sun was warm. It's a lovely site with facilities that were immaculate. We would go back again. It's very clean and well laid out.

Awesome break

This was our second Motorhome trip and our first to Middlewood farm. We found the staff very pleasant and helpful. The site was very peaceful and quiet which is what we needed.

Friendly staff

Easy to find as clearly sign posted. Friendly, helpful staff, as we had a few issues with our motorhome. Would use again for sure.

Thank you for your great review. We hope to see you again soon.

Great location and very quiet and clean!

This is a very nice site, not far from Robin Hood's Bay (just a stroll across a field). The facilities were spotless and clean and although the showers only lasted 5 minutes, they were hot and FREE!!!! Clean bathrooms and a large facility to dump trash. Reception staff were friendly and helpful and very welcoming for me as it was my first time visit. A small store up the road and a sweet local pub with great food and local brews. Wish I had stayed longer but I will be returning.

Feb half term break

Lovely location, great 10 minute walk down to Robin Hoods Bay. Close to toilets, my only negative is the shower cuts off after 5 minutes, just need a little longer.

Two night stay

Last minute stay for 2 nights. Great location, although could benefit from a shop selling a few essentials maybe. Quiet site, although it is February, can imagine it gets very busy and popular in summertime. Will definitely be back due to the close proximity to Robin Hoods Bay. It was also a short walk away into the village with dogs. Unfortunately the owners and reception staff seemed unhelpful.

Site's response

We have no need for a shop as the village general store is very well stocked and a mere 5 minutes walk away.

Great site

Lovely site with walks nearby and 10 minutes walk to Robin Hoods Bay. Warm showers and clean toilets with good sized plots. Great site!

Thank you for your 5 star review.

Cosy glamping in a perfect spot

We stayed here out of season in January, and our pod was very cosy. It was the perfect place to come back to after lovely, chilly days on the surrounding walks and beaches. The park is perfectly situated to walk into Robin Hood's Bay and Fylingdales, and only a short drive to Whitby. The pods and shower / toilet blocks were spotless, and the owners were very friendly.

Thank you so much for your BRILLIANT Review. We do appreciate it.
