About Us
Having finally completed legal purchase in late December 2012, we immediately implemented a 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 & external pot wash is finally completed, at a cost of £70,000.
Being seasoned caravanners & motorhomers for 38 years we have invested our wealth of experience in designing & setting up our Touring Park & being family owned & managed you are assured of a friendly & warm, Yorkshire welcome.
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
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 & quiet of a parkland type setting with dark skies and fantastic sunsets over the Moors,
Westgate Carr Farm Campsite must be shortlisted for your holiday!
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
Wildlife at Westgate Carr Farm
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.
Roe Deer are also regular visitors to the field adjoining the campsite.
During autumn, winter & spring you will almost certainly see Little & Great White Egrets along the lane & around the farm
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 & Horses.
Our hens roam freely together allowing guests to observe and potentially interact with the animals, if desired.
The Alpacas are particularly inquisitive, if not wary of strangers, but are highly amusing providing hours of entertainment.
We are blessed to be home to a significant hedgehog community & in the summer months they can be seen roaming the park often scavenging in & around awnings
