Mr Malcolm''s is a new (2019) relaxed rural off grid camping field in the beautiful North York Moors National Park, set in the Esk valley with easy access to Whitby and the delightful North Yorkshire Coast.
Watch and listen to the wildlife in the surrounding fields, with regular visits from local barn owls on one of their dawn and dusk outings, flocks of partridges, pheasants and all manner of smaller birds plus you may even get a view of the local roe deer if you're lucky.
The site is small, off grid, tent only and accepts adults and children over 12.
With a selection of pitches, you can chose the communal camping area close to the facilities block and camp fire or one of our individual spaces on higher ground accessed by pathways mown through the long grass, whichever is the ideal spot for your stay.
Enjoy the views across the Esk valley and to the hills and moor beyond from your tent thanks to Mr Malcolm's marvellous vantage point, on a clear day you will even be able to see the famous Whitby Abbey and sea beyond.
Cars can be brought to the edge of the camping field and wheelbarrows are provided for transferring equipment and belongings to your chosen spot. Parking is then in the adjacent, flat former horse exercise arena.
Facilities include composting toilets, hot gas showers, wash sinks and solar lighting.
A repurposed digger bucket makes for an ideal communal campfire, perfect for watching the sunset, toasting marshmallows or simply sharing stories with friends old and new.
Barbecues are allowed but must be raised off the grass (stands available).
At reception there is a small shop with hot and cold drinks, snacks and camp essentials for sale along with camping equipment for rent as well as wifi, a seating area with view across the valley and a table football game for anyone fancying a game.
