Woodland camping near Rosedale Abbey

·

Set up camp in the woods around Rosedale Abbey and you’ll find over 40 forest sites to choose from—think fire pits, hot showers, and proper toilets, not just a clearing in the trees. Prices start at just £12 a night, with the average closer to £110. You’re not here for manicured lawns; expect mossy trails, tangled roots, and the scent of pine after rain. Wildlife-watching is a real draw—roe deer, badgers, and a symphony of birds at dawn. Bring sturdy boots for hiking, and don’t forget your swimmers for wild dips in nearby streams. Breaks Fold Farm Glamping & Camping (31 reviews) is a local favourite for its sprawling meadows and forest edges. The Darling Woods of May (6 reviews) offers secluded spots under ancient trees, while Dale Farm Holidays (5 reviews) puts you closer to the edge of the moors. Here, campfires are allowed, so you can end your day swapping stories under the stars. Don’t leave rubbish behind—locals are strict about keeping the forest clean.

Channel your inner Viking and run rampant along the north-east coast at this family-run site in East Yorkshire. Set in pleasing green surroundings, the fab accommodation at Viking Garth Hideaways is close to both established seaside spots like Bridlington or Scarborough and the wilder cliffs and coves of the Flamborough Headland Heritage Coast. Pods are spread over tree-lined grounds, with plenty of picnic tables about where you can admire the view or tuck into an alfresco meal (or both…). Campfires are also welcome in the designated areas – wood and charcoal can be picked up in Bridlington (10 minutes' drive), along with other holiday essentials. Finished off in natural wood, Viking Garth Hideaways' all-weather accommodation is easy on the eye both inside and out. This eco-conscious spot has also kitted out all of its pods with double glazing and insulation (heating is on hand for those cooler nights). The smart interiors are mightily functional too, coming with a microwave, fridge, crockery, cutlery, a TV, and a DVD player. If and when you manage to pull yourself away from these snug surrounds, start your explorations with jaunts to seaside villages like Bempton (five minutes' drive), which has a village pub, a railway station, and other handy amenities. Want a day off from driving? A local bus stops a few minutes' walk away from the site entrance.
