About Wild Camping at Stepney Stays
This scenic hill farm on Scarborough's outskirts delivers genuine Yorkshire charm alongside sweeping valley views and a surprisingly versatile pitch collection. Run by the Tyson family since 1966, the site blends traditional farming (Hereford cattle, Saddleback pigs, Easycare sheep grazing in surrounding fields) with thoughtful facilities including a hot tub, on-site farm shop and tea room, and barbecue area. The location shines: Scarborough's beaches and medieval castle lie under 10 minutes by car, while the North York Moors National Park starts just two miles away, making this a walker's dream base.
Pitch options range from basic grass-and-earth tent spots to motorhome spaces, all non-electric. Whitby is 40 minutes north, Filey and RSPB Bempton Cliffs easily reached southward. Note that dogs aren't permitted, which some touring families may find limiting. Still, for those seeking Moors hiking, coastal exploration and a working-farm atmosphere without the frills, Stepney Stays offers quiet, open countryside within striking distance of the coast.
