Yorkshire is one of the best places int’ UK for camping n’ glamping, and once you’ve arrived, it’s easy to see why. From dramatic coastline and sandy beaches to wild moorland, rolling farmland and quiet country lanes, this is a county made for slowing down and spending time outdoors. The don’t call it “God’s own County” for nothing tha knows.
Whether you’re pitching a tent, touring in a campervan, or unwinding in a glamping pod wi’ a hot tub, Yorkshire gives thee’ space to breathe and freedom to choose ‘ow ya holiday.
At Prospect House Farm, just outside Scarborough, we sit right between coast and countryside, offering camping, campervan stays and hot tub glamping right within North Yorkshire. It’s a place to switch off, embrace the art of being lazy, and enjoy everything Yorkshire does best.
Coastal Camping and Glamping in Yorkshire
Yorkshire’s coastline is varied and full of character. Scarborough, Whitby, Filey and Robin Hood’s Bay each offer something different. From traditional seaside fun to quieter coves and clifftop walks.
Many people search for Scarborough campsites near the beach. And while seafront sites are popular, they can also be busy and noisy. Staying just outside the town gives you the best of both worlds. You can enjoy the beach, fish and chips and seafront atmosphere by day, then return to peaceful countryside by night.
From Prospect House Farm, you’re only minutes from Scarborough’s beaches. Whilst still being able to enjoy darker skies, more space and a slower pace once the day-trippers head home.
Camping in the North York Moors
Head inland and the landscape changes quickly. The North York Moors National Park is one of England’s most striking areas. Picture open heather moorland, deep valleys and miles of walking and cycling routes.
It’s also an officially recognised Dark Sky Reserve, making it one of the best places in the country for stargazing. On clear nights, the skies here are something special, with countless stars visible and even the occasional glimpse of the Northern Lights.
Camping on the moors is about simplicity. Days spent walking, evenings around a campfire, and nights under vast skies. From our location on the edge of the National Park, campers and campervan guests can explore the moors easily, then return to a quiet base with plenty of space to relax.
Countryside Campsites in Yorkshire
Between the coast and the moors lies Yorkshire’s gentler side. Fields bordered by hedgerows, small villages, winding lanes and working farms create the kind of countryside that feels timeless.
Countryside camping in Yorkshire is ideal if you want peace, privacy and room to spread out. Farm campsites offer a slower rhythm, birdsong in the morning, and evenings spent watching the light fade with a fire crackling nearby.
Prospect House Farm is exactly that kind of place. Our camping fields are spacious and unhurried, with room for tents and campervans, and the freedom to enjoy evenings outside without the bustle of larger holiday parks.
Tent Camping in Yorkshire
Tent camping remains one of the most rewarding ways to experience Yorkshire. Families enjoy the freedom for children to roam safely, couples appreciate the quiet, and solo travellers love the simplicity.
Scarborough is a popular base for tent campers thanks to its beaches and attractions. Nearby villages like Scalby, Goathland and Grosmont offer countryside charm and access to walking routes and heritage railways.
At Prospect House Farm, our tent pitches are well spaced, allowing for campfires that lead to shared moments and that proper camping feel that’s becoming harder to find.
Campervan and Motorhome Stays
Yorkshire is made for campervan travel. Coastal roads, moorland routes and quiet country lanes all lend themselves to touring at your own pace.
Campervan guests often want the freedom of the road without sacrificing comfort. Our dedicated campervan field provides level pitches, electric hook ups, space to relax, and a peaceful base close to Scarborough, Whitby and the North York Moors.
It’s an ideal stop whether you’re staying for a night or settling in for a longer camping holiday right here on the North Yorkshire coastline.
Glamping in Yorkshire with Hot Tubs
For those who love being outdoors but prefer a few comforts, glamping is the perfect option. Across the county, glamping pods and cabins have become increasingly popular, especially when there’s a hot tub involved.
Our glamping pods here on the farm are designed for couples who want to properly switch off. Each pod comes with its own private hot tub, heated and ready for your arrival, countryside views, and easy access to both the coast and the moors. They’re available all year round, with energy efficient central heating, so they’re just as inviting in winter as they are in summer. And if eco credentials matter to you, our hot tubs are powered by highly efficient heat pumps.
Glamping here is about indulgence without rush. Long mornings, lazy afternoons, and evenings soaking under star filled skies in the Dark Sky Reserve. It’s outdoor living, but done gently. We call it the Art of Being Lazy. Once you’re here, you’ll understand.
If you’re searching for a good old, heart warming Yorkshire experience, this might be your sign to stop making excuses and book a glamping stay that’s about peace rather than crowds. Our little corner of North Yorkshire, that we call home, delivers exactly that.
Why Choose Rural Yorkshire Over Busier Sites
Busy holiday parks and seafront campsites have their place, but they’re not for everyone. Rural Yorkshire stays offer something different.
You get quieter nights, darker skies, more space, and a stronger connection to the landscape. You can still reach beaches, towns and attractions easily, but you return to calm at the end of the day.
That balance is exactly why so many guests choose Prospect House Farm for camping and glamping in Yorkshire.
