Warm, friendly Yorkshire welcome!
Since acquiring the site in 2012 we have implemented a continual comprehensive programme of improvement and refurbishment throughout. The campsite has been transformed with dedicated serviced motorhome pitches, all-weather fully-serviced caravan pitches, new electrics, fencing, pitches, dog walk/nature trail earning a customer feedback rating of 10/10 (UK Campsite website). A new toilet block containing full disabled room and separate male and female rooms which include showers, small kitchenette and external pot wash is finally completed, at a cost of £70,000. Being seasoned caravanners and motorhomers for 38 years we have invested our wealth of experience in designing and setting up our Touring Park and being family owned and managed you are assured of a friendly and warm, Yorkshire welcome.
Large pitches, mostly with open aspect!
Our campsite pitches are all-weather based with large open grass areas. All caravan pitches are now fully-serviced (10 Amp electricity is metered from 1st October 2022) with the added benefit of a private picnic table & free Wi-Fi. An additional 4 all-weather pitches, which have been specifically designed for campervan/motorhomes, enjoy a south-facing "back-water", again with metered 10 Amp EHU, water, private picnic tables & free Wi-Fi . Most pitches are separated by Beech hedging & all pitches enjoy an open aspect, many with distant countryside & Moorland views.
Stunning 'dark skies' location!
Although we are only located 1 mile from the historic, friendly market town of Pickering, our stunning location is ideal for those wanting to enjoy the peace and quiet of a parkland type setting with dark skies and fantastic sunsets over the Moors,
Back to nature at Westgate Carr Farm!
Our dedicated circular nature trail/dog walk along our fields to the boundary with Costa Beck, a fast flowing "chalk" stream where you may see Trout & Grayling, Herons, Swans, Kingfishers, Wagtails & even Otters has proved particularly popular. Bullfinches & Long Tailed Tits are resident in the hedges surrounding the camping field, as are Goldfinches, Yellowhammers, Woodpeckers and Owls. These together with more commonly seen wild birds such as Chaffinches & Robins etc. During autumn, winter and spring you will almost certainly see Little and Great White Egrets along the lane and around the farm. Roe Deer are also regular visitors to the field adjoining the campsite.
Up close with the animals!
The immediate grounds have been landscaped with trees being planted and the provision of a bird feeding station together with the creation of new paddocks for occasional use by our Alpacas, Sheep and Horses. The Alpacas are particularly inquisitive, if not wary of strangers, but are highly amusing providing hours of entertainment. Our hens roam freely together allowing guests to observe and potentially interact with the animals, if desired.
