About Smugglers Rock Certificated Location

Tucked near the clifftop village of Ravenscar on the North Yorkshire coast, Smugglers Rock is a simple, no-frills Certificated Location that's all about the setting. With electric hook-up and WiFi included, it suits motorhomes and caravans looking for a peaceful overnight or short stay—though note there are no toilets or showers on site, so you'll need to be self-contained. Dogs are welcome, and the location puts you within easy reach of the Cleveland Way, fossil-hunting beaches and the dramatic headlands of the Yorkshire coastline.

It's ideal if you want a quiet spot to park up and explore the area under your own steam, but those after more facilities will need to look elsewhere.

What visitors say

John Thomas

Very well equipped cottage that ticks the "drop dead" box for me - ie a decent shower. It's a little compact in the kitchen, but probably fine for a family of four. The living room upstairs spans the whole of the cottage, so is massive.

Lovely little cottages at Ravenscar, well kept, everything you need. Lots of parking and easy driving distance to places of interest.

Really lovely cottage with great views from the front, plenty of parking. Very quiet surroundings but in easy reach to Whitby, Scarborough, North York Moors Robin Hoods Bay and plenty of walking including easy access to Cleveland way
