Runswick Bay Camping And Caravan Park

Runswick Bay Caravan and Camping Park is a family run park at the top of the bank above Runswick Bay, a North Yorkshire coastal village with a sandy beach and a proper claim to some of the best clifftop walking in the county. The park sits about 6 miles north of Whitby, with Staithes a short hop up the coast and the Cleveland Way passing a few minutes from the gate. These days the park centres on 9 lodges, each with a private hot tub, and it opens a seasonal camping field for tents in high summer, typically from early July to the end of August, so campers wanting hookups or spring and autumn dates should check availability before planning a trip. Dogs are welcome at the park and across the village, on the beach and in the pubs, which makes this corner of North Yorkshire a sound pick for coastal breaks with the dog. Regulars praise the sheltered pitches behind hedges and pine trees, the clean facilities and the sea views from the cliff top, though the walk back up from the beach is a steep one. Runswick Bay Caravan and Camping Park takes camping bookings through its online booking page, with lodge enquiries on 01947 840997.
