Middlewood Farm Holiday Park Reviews

Lovely site

Nice well thought out site with roads to each pitch, only fall-back was toilets were closer to caravans and motorhomes who have facilities in their vehicles, should have the tents closer.

Site's response

Thank you for your review. The toilets are where they are due to planning conditions.

Wet weekend in May

Due to rain, the site was waterlogged. Drainage very poor, nearest water point was disconnected, next nearest was flooded. I would stay again but it needs to have been a very dry spell prior and no rain forecast for the stay. This site is rated 5 star but I felt I have been on better for less.

Site's response

I am sorry that it rained before and on your stay with us. As you may know, I do not control the weather! Maybe next time you might like to try our Glamping Pods. PS. Fields do not drain instantly, even tarmac is wet when it is raining!

Excellent location

Campervan & we were told we'd been moved onto hard-standing (not available when we booked) when we arrived, which was great as there had been a lot of rain. 10 min walk to Robin Hood's Bay through the fields or 15/20 mins via the road (with footpath). 5 min walk from the Cinder Track (disused railway line) to Whitby or Ravenscar. Lovely circular walks to Boggle Hole YHA & café, for example, and on to the Cleveland Way. Had a great weekend.

Site's response

FANTASTIC. I am pleased that you enjoyed yourselves so much. We hope to see you again.

Recommend but be prepared for very quick showering

This is a good site, especially as it is right on the old railway line walk. I really did not like the 5 limit on the showers, 2 mins to warm up 3 mins showering. I thought showers like that had gone from campsites 20 years ago.

Rejuvinating

Relaxing place.. loads of friendly farm animals in the neighbourhood 😊 Have access to city centre and beaches. Enjoyed our stay and definitely will be coming back. Thank you.

First time at Middlewood Farm

Brilliant campsite. Very accommodating as we were late onto site due to van trouble. Good size site with well attended facilities. Great for dogs (must be kept on lead around site). Plenty of walks...the cinder track disused railway ran alongside the site, which you can take all the way to Whitby (7 mls north) or Scarborough (14 mls south). 5 mins walk on the path opposite the site went straight into Robin Hood's Bay and the beach, which joined onto the Cleveland Way. Would absolutely recommend and we will be staying again for sure.

Lovely site

Nice walk into Robin Hood's Bay. Shower facilities nice and clean, would definitely recommend and stay again.

Pods with a view

Perfect sized for either a couple or two people. Enough space with a fridge and microwave, to be fair, felt the microwave was slight overkill but if staying for longer, could be useful. Village shop stocks the basics, plus some homemade products, and the pub serves some cracking food, portions are massive! Will recommend to all.

Thank you for your 5 star review on our pods. We hope to see you again.

3 day last minute booking

Excellent stay and the sunny weather a bonus.

Cosy and clean

We managed to book this pod last minute for the goth/ steampunk weekend in April. The location was spot on, less than 15 mins from central Whitby. It was easy to find and we were greeted by a helpful lady at reception who explained which was our pod and basic rules of the campsite. On arrival at the pod, it was clean but basic, cosy and it soon warmed up after putting the heater on for 10 mins. The facility block was spotlessly clean also. Was warm and dry with shower cubicles, toilets, sinks and hairdryers if needed. On making the bed up, it was bigger than a king-size and plenty of room. We weren't so lucky with the weather and heavy rainfall all night but lovely and cosy in the pod. Also good how you can park your car right outside the pod, which was helpful in the miserable weather for us to load the car back up. We would definitely recommend to others and is an ideal spot when visiting Whitby again with us having a dog.

Clean and friendly

Site was very clean and had everything you could need. Close to a pub and little shop. Also the bus is easy to get in to town every 30 mins.

Beautiful peaceful spot

After arriving at the site down a tight back road and over a Ford (Google maps is not always right) I checked in and had wonderful service from the gentleman (maybe owner) in reception. Got set up and looked around the site. Shower block was very clean and warm, given the unseasonably cold weather. Walked down to Robin Hood's Bay in the evening to look at the sea. It was a hard climb back up from someone who lives in the Fens! Had a peaceful nights sleep too, which is a major plus for me.

Thank you for your 5 star review. I hope you remember the advised route to us next time!

Short break for 1st visit to Robin Hoods Bay

What a fantastic site in a superb location. The showers were lovely and warm and there are hangers for your towel and clothes so they stayed dry. A lovely 6-mile walk along the cliff tops to Whitby, or you can go on the cinder path. Pubs in Robin Hood's Bay had a good selection of drinks and there was a lovely butcher and pub just 1/2 mile away. The pub The Flying Dale Inn does super food and big portions. Loads more to explore, so definitely going back.

What an amazing 5-star review. Thank you so much. We do appreciate it.

Lovely 2 night stay

From check-in to departure, everything was great. The washing up area, toiletries and showers are clean and tidy. Our pitch size was perfect for 2, but I would likely get a bigger size if there were more of us. From the campsite, there are loads of walks and Robin Hood's Bay is only a short walk away. Whitby is a short drive or a 13-mile round trip walk, but what a fantastic coastline walk it was. Great value for money.

Can't fault it

Spot on. No faults. Great location.

Great site

Great site and location. Clean and tidy with decent-sized pitches. Not too far from Robin Hood's Bay.

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

Grass pitch in a campervan

The grass pitches were all waterlogged, so the offer of a hard standing was accepted. Suitable protection under the awning prevented any damage. Great access to Robin Hood's Bay. Bring your wellies.

Thank you for your 5 star review. Come again soon.

Mid April stay 2024

The site is well positioned with accurate information on walking times to Robin Hood's Bay etc. The shower block, whilst clean, was on the cold side. You also have to undress then start the shower which is on a 5 min timer. Fair play to save water but let's keep everyone warm.

Thank you for your review.

Excellent

We have stayed here many times and we can't wait to return this summer

Lovely, spacious pitches and spotless campsite

Lovely site with a helpful friendly lady to greet you, spacious pitches and spotless site. The toilets and showers are nice and warm, a lovely walk to Robin Hood's Bay from the site and only 5 miles drive from Whitby. Loved my holiday here, thank you!

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

Nice little campsite

Nice little campsite! We stayed overnight as a stop between our trip along the coast. Great location with a lovely off road walk 10 minutes into Robin Hood's Bay. Dog friendly, which is great for us as we have 2. Facilities were clean and all in working order. Site we pitched on was hard standing with electric hook up, great for no mud trailing into our camper 👍🏼

Thank you for your great review.

Excellent value

Our first stay in a pod accommodation and it was a great experience. We booked a couple of weeks beforehand for two of us and the dog. We arrived on Saturday at 5pm and checked in with a friendly and informative gent who told us where the pod was and how to get to the pub! The pod was clean and tidy, minimalist as is the style, but no complaints here and nothing missing, broken or worn out. The only comment would be that the decking is slippery when wet, so watch your step. Weather to blame, not the site! The camping field wasn't in use yet and for good reason, it was absolutely sodden. Hopefully it improves before people try and pitch tents on it. The facilities block had toilets, sinks, showers and outside washing up facilities. The block was warm, very clean and all fresh and working as it should. The pod heating worked well enough overnight and we slept well. Packing down in the morning was simple and a simple key drop at reception ended out brief stay. At £66 for the night, it was amazing value and we'll be back, next time with our kids and a couple of pods. Can't wait. Thanks for an excellent stay.
