The campsite, bunkhouse barn and holiday cottages are situated within a sheep farm, in the heart of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park. Both campsite fields can accommodate tents, caravans and motor homes. The majority of the area is flat and level; some parts are gently sloping, with all of the fields having lots of shelter from high hedges and trees. There are views across the moors from most parts of the site, and there are views of the North Yorkshire Moors Railway (heritage steam-operated) from some parts of the site. There are 90 pitches shared between both fields. There is a small meadow ideal for back packers opposite the farmhouse, adjacent to the railway. At bank holiday weekends, a large number of additional pitches are available for use. Approved rallies are able to use Chapel Hill by arrangement. DOGS are welcome but must be kept under control at all times on the site and can be exercised off the site. Please clean up – children about! Please note we are a farm site; bring appropriate footwear!

See our how to get here page for detailed directions and public transport advice. In Goathland, the farm is sign-posted next to the Goathland Hotel, opposite Goathland Garage. The farm is about 800m along the lane. The lane, which is a bridleway, is the trackbed of the original Whitby to Pickering railway, and crosses a neighbouring farm to reach our site entrance, marked with sign boards. The camping fields are on both sides of the track, the facilities and reception are a little further on, turning left, towards the house and farmyard.

Showers, toilets, CDP, wash-up sink, washbasins and disabled/family shower room are in the building attached to the bunkhouse barn (hot and cold water, 24 hours); the building is fully lit.  There are also toilets, wash-up sink and CDP on the main site (cold water only), torch needed!. Drinking water taps (spring water) are located at several convenient points throughout the site.

Note that the site fields and their access lanes are unlit, ensure you bring a good torch /lantern!
