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!

Things to do on site and in the Whitby area
The site is the perfect place to kick back an unwind, with WiFi available in the information hut as well as magazines and sofas it is the perfect place to sit and read a good book. Or if you are wanting to get out and explore Runswick Bay is only 20 minutes away and is the previous winner of the BBC's best beach award.
The village of Hinderwell is close by with a few eateries and a butcher's, or for somewhere a bit livelier Staithes (5 minute drive or 30 minute walk), is a pretty harbour town with winding cobbled streets and quaint cottages. Here you will find a few eateries with fresh seafood and traditional ales. Or Whitby is a bit busier with a sandy beach, see where the idea for Dracula was born!
