Middlewood Farm Holiday Park Reviews

Busy site, good location

Booked this site last minute so we expected it to be busy during school holidays. Nice 10 minute walk across fields to Robin Hood's Bay - we saw a deer and there were cows in the field. Pitch was a bit tight but ok and showers were hot. Nice and quiet at night even though busy. Bay hotel has good food. We also ate at the Fylingthorpe Arms which is just 5 minutes away and the food was good there too. Whitby and Scarborough beaches are partially dog friendly as is Sandsend. Nice site for a short stay.

Thank you for your great 5* review. We hope to see you again.

Pod stay

Pod perfect for me, however the toilet block became flooded after heavy rain and was quite busy at times, so had to queue.

Site's response

Thank you for your review. It was an unprecedented amount of rain, of which we had never seen before. As we have "low thresholds" in the doorway, to make it very accessible for our guests, this did allow some rain to get into the facilities. But only a small amount !! We do have 2 x toilet blocks!

Our stay

Good site, but I think it needs a shop on site. Were some times when toilet block could have been cleaner. Location good and only a 10 minute walk to Robin Hood's Bay. Although, you have to walk through fields full of cowpats. On the whole, not a bad site.

Great place to stay

We were due to stay for 2 nights, but unfortunately had to leave on the 2nd night due to needing to get back home. The staff were really friendly and made us feel welcome, even if we were a bit late for our initial arrival. The park was very clean and tidy and the facilities were also very clean and tidy. Will definitely be returning here again.

2 nights stay at Middlewood Farm Holiday Park

The park is ideally situated for Whitby and Scarborough and surrounding villages. Great walk to Robin Hoods Bay from campsite. The facilities at the campsite were good and our pitch was in a good spot. My partner complained that the gents shower floors were dirty, I said that was probably because people were showering with flip flops on, and of course he didn’t have shower shoes.

Lovely family stay

Everything we wanted, short walk to amenities and to the beach. Clean/tidy and well managed.

Thank you for your 5* review. Your praise is appreciated.

You get what you pay for

Nice enough family campsite, however, the toilet/shower blocks could do with some updating, and you have to hold down the tap to try and wash your hands. Not the best. Nice views. This is a great site for people who don't mind loud kids and dogs. Apart from that, it was a great base to venture out as it is close to Whitby, North Yorkshire Moors Railway, Filey, Scarborough etc. We personally wouldn't stay at this campsite again.

Site's response

The water taps are "press" taps to stop people leaving the water running when they leave the basins. There are sink plugs at all basins so you can wash your hands! Maybe people should realise that during the summer school holidays, there will be children on the best sites. Maybe visit adult only and dog free sites.

Campervan stay on a non electric grass pitch

Lovely location, 20 min footpath walk from campsite to Robin Hood's Bay, and a well kept site. We will stay here again.

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

Fantastic, restful holiday

Had a much needed rest at Middlewood Farm in the camping pods. Pity the weather was rainy but everything else was fine. The shared facilities were clean and kept that way throughout our stay. The pod had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Only fault we found was could have done with another plug socket so we could charge both our phones at the same time.

Very nice and good camping with a beautiful view of the area

We stayed for 7 nights and the area was new to us. It was short to visit all the nice things Moor Beach etc. And we enjoyed the whole time living at the campsite. The enjoyment of the little children with a safe place to play and run and bike. And also the friends and whole families that enjoy for a couple of days of the camping life. Really camping for all ages. A lot of space on the pitch. Fine atmosphere. Can be busy during the day, but lovely and quiet in the evening and night. Greetings from VW Van fans from Holland.

Lovely campsite

All the family enjoyed are stay here. The staff are very friendly and helpful, stayed at a lot of different campsites and this has the cleanest toilet and shower blocks out of all the ones we have stayed at. There's plenty of room for the kids to play football whilst making new friends. The kids enjoyed going over to the cow and horse fields as they are animal mad. Caught the bus just up the road from the site into Whitby and only cost £2 each, saved on having to get the cars out and working out parking. We ate from the chip shop called 'Fish Box' and must say, it was worth every penny. Chips were lovely and the fruity curry is the best i've had. Overall, I would recommend and definitely go back.

Thank you, your praise speaks volumes. We hope to welcome you again soon.

Great campsite, enjoyed our stay

We went as a family with grown-up kids with the girls in a pod and my son and I in a tent. Was great having the pod to hang out in the evening and having fun as a family. Great location 10 minutes from Whitby. Friendly staff.

I am pleased that you all enjoyed your stay with us, and thank you for your review.

Summer 2023

Lovely quiet site, nice facilities and walks to Robin Hood Bay through fields. Be aware of narrow lanes when approaching the site, otherwise fantastic location.

Site's response

Thank you for your 5-star review, it is appreciated. There is an alternative route to us from the A171 for Tourers and Motorhomes, which we use for the 48ft Articulated Lorries. We hope to see you again soon.

Great week

Great week. Comfortable and clean park. Good location. Great park with great location. The walk to Robin Hood's Bay was lovely and the bay itself is a hidden gem. Lots of pubs and excellent fish and chips. It's an absolute must!

2 night break

Great spot, really peaceful. Helpful staff and very clean toilets/showers, short walk to shop & pub, slightly further to Robin Hoods Bay but only 15 mins through lovely countryside.

Site's response

Thank you for your great review.

Nice stay, not keen on lockdown

Nice and clean and well kept site at all times. Only thing not keen on is the tent site round back had a barrier that got locked at 10.45pm, whereas the family field didn't.

Thank you for your kind review.

Weekend break

Great location, clean and tidy, well organised, very friendly and helpful staff.

Fantastic 5 star review. Thank you so much for taking the time to review us.

Lovely location and well run friendly site

Great holiday park and lovely location, plenty of walks around and literally 15 minutes from Robin Hoods Bay. Probably stating the obvious, but not a place for anyone who can't do steep hills. We loved staying there and will book again if we're that way, but I do have observations which may be of interest to the site management. Firstly, the showers are automatic and mostly have reasonable pressure, however, they run for 5 minutes. Most people I spoke to had finished within 3 minutes and were standing drying themselves while the shower carried on running. Secondly, the hard standing is good with plenty of space, but the gravel (rocks) used for the hard stand are pretty uncomfortable underfoot for a soft Southerner! All in all, loved it. Scenery is spectacular and all the people we met were lovely.

Site's response

We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and we thank you for your review.

Perfect quiet location

This is the perfect location being only 20 minutes walk to Robin Hoods Bay and never having to go near a road to get there. The site is generally flat, making pitching easier. The facilities are really clean and well looked after and the site is quiet and peaceful, surrounded by wildlife.

Site's response

Thank you for your excellent review and we hope to welcome you back very soon.

Motorhome-ing

Great location next to 'Scarborough to Whitby' cinder track.10 mins walk to Robin Hoods Bay Beach and short walk into Fylingthorpe, with village store and pub serving good quality food. Site was well laid out with level pitches and clean, roomy shower/toilet blocks. Would benefit from a Motorhome service point in the family field and additional hooks in the showers. Highly recommended.

Site's response

Thank you for your 5 star review. Just to be clear, we do have a Motorhome service point in the Family Field. We have 2 hooks in the showers which is normal practice, this is usually enough. We hope to see you again soon.

June 2023

Spent 7 nights on a touring pitch. Hardstanding level and all pitches well-spaced. Amenities were clean, with more than satisfactory showers. The reception staff were welcoming and willing to help. TV reception was good, but no Wi-Fi was available. Access to the site is hilly, having to use narrow roads with tight bends and an abundance of parked cars.
