About the site
A quiet campsite tucked into the village of Hinderwell with country pubs, a butcher's and bistro. It is just a 20 minute walk from Runswick Bay and the impressive Yorkshire coastline too. There are a range of spacious pitches on offer for campers and tourers across grass, hardstanding and fully serviced pitches with the option of electric. There are even adult only pitches for tents without electric, perfect for those who enjoy some peace and quiet whilst being surrounded by nature. If glamping is more your style, there are two shepherd's huts and a glamping cabin, perfect if you're on a couple's getaway. Each is fully furnished with its own TV, BBQ, comfy bed and more! The Potting Shed even has its own enclosed garden for dining al fresco. This site is ideal for a peaceful retreat, kept natural with the planting of native trees and hedging to encourage a diversity of wildlife including, birds, insects, bats and a resident barn owl that does a nightly patrol! Whilst onsite be sure to take a stroll around the nature walk to see the ducks splashing in the pond or the resident hens! Set in the North York Moors National Park the site is well located for exploring both the Yorkshire coastline and pretty countryside with The Cleaveland Way just a 20 minute walk away. Well behaved dogs are welcome onsite, but please ensure they are kept on a lead at all times to not disturb the wildlife. The site has plenty of walks around with circular walks available from the campsite gate, or Runswick Bay is within walking distance. Campfires are not permitted, but BBQs are as long as they are raised and in an appropriate container. Please note, all BBQs must be extinguished by 10pm. Enjoy the wonderful dark skies on offer as you feast on a tasty meal outside your tent or tourer.

We had an absolutely wonderful holiday spent at Serenity Camping. The toilets were always clean and nice. The charging shed only had three plug sockets, I would have perhaps liked some USB ports. It was very peaceful, with no screaming kids or EDM music pumping like our usual campsite on the East Coast. I can see us camping here every year from now on. The location was excellent, being close to many local seaside villages and their pubs. It felt like we were cheating the system somewhat, it was a really great holiday! The best holiday I've had since I was a child.
Lovely, friendly and impeccably clean

Hidden away, look out for the sign or you'll drive straight past the entrance, lovely spot. Reception was closed by the time we arrived, but instructions on where to pitch had been left out for us with a phone number if we needed assistance. The tent field has a gentle slope to it, but the pitches are flat and level and of a good size, plenty of space, not crammed in at all. the showers were in very good condition, water hot and plentiful, and cleaned regularly, there aren't many showers but we never had an issue. The family bathrooms are really appreciated by a family with young children. The wash up is more than you would expect, a large freezer for the ice packs, but also a large communal fridge, kettle, toaster and microwave all free to use. Washer and dryer also present (charged for) but we didn't need them. A large pub literally across the road, fish and chip shop 5 mins walk away along with a second pub, Runswick Bay approx 20 min walk (down hill) and there is a local Co-Op just a 5 min drive away in Staithes. Excellent value.
