From the online booking to the moment we left the site, everything was perfect. The site is immaculate and a credit to all the staff who work tirelessly every day; they are always doing something and nothing was too much trouble. Our pitch was clean, weed-free and almost perfectly level. We loved how all of the caravans were pitched facing the sea. The shop was small but well stocked with the essentials. Considering we were in the full throws of the World Cup, the site was lovely and quiet. It is quite a busy site and, where we were pitched, there was a steady flow of new arrivals and leavers; it is very much a transient site with people staying for a few days before moving on, but we hardly noticed. It is very well placed to visit the many beaches and tourist attractions in the area and we did find the local bus service very convenient, considering parking in Whitby can be an issue at peak season. There are bus stops outside the site entrance which take you into Whitby at one side of the road, and up to Sandsend and Staithes in the other direction. There is a secure dog field on site which our Patterdale enjoyed every day. The amenities are fabulous, very clean and well cared for; we couldn’t fault them. Congratulations and thank you to everyone who work so hard in looking after the site and its visitors so very well. I highly recommend the site to readers of this review and look forward to returning again myself one day. · via Google [Lesley Moore](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/102822152038192679126/reviews) ★★★★★ We knew as soon as we arrived that we had picked the right campsite. The location (albeit a rather windy one on this occasion) is just great. From our pitch we could see the sea and any passing ships (I think I should have been a sailor!). The facilities here are first class, we have not used better anywhere else. The fantastic beach is an easy downhill walk on the path from the site and you can easily walk into Whitby on the promenade or the beach. If walking is not your thing then there are bus stops outside the entrance (X4 - later becomes the X4A) to Whitby/Middlesborough. There is an interesting looking Golf Club very close. (visitors welcome) All staff we met were lovely and friendly/helpful. Dogs seem most welcome and the dog shower facility looked to be well appreciated by owners. Cannot comment on Friday pizzas, but the bacon rolls from the local Breakfast serving van ladies was very tasty! We definitely are recommending this site. · via Google [CAROLE WILSON](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/109420782942934099642/reviews) ★★★★★ Just had 4 nights at this fabulous site in our campervan. We loved it. Pitch with sea views and the most wonderful sunsets. The lovely team there were so helpful,welcoming and just great. Walks to Whitby and Sandsend and a reakky good bus service with stops just outside the site. The toilets and showers were spotlessly clean. We will definitely be returning. Thanks to all the lovely friendly team ...we love your site. · via Google [Colette Duxbury](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/107681804016954364024/reviews) ★★★★★ We have just enjoyed our first one week stay at Sandfield House Farm Caravan Park. The park is ideally situated overlooking the sea, just off the road between Whitby and Sandsend and is walking distance to both resorts. There is also a regular bus service which passes just outside the entrance to the caravan park. The caravan park itself is well organised and very well maintained and the toilet and shower facilities are spacious and super clean. The staff we met were very friendly & helpful. We would happily recommend this caravan park to anyone looking to stay in the Whitby / Sandsend area. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x487f197c22e6c575:0x112bf67ae98345a3!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ## At a glance **Address** Sandhills [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=54.4989124%2C-0.6608219) **Category** Beaches & Coastline **Guest rating** 4.8 / 5 (335 reviews) **Suitable for** All Ages **Setting** Outdoor **Dogs allowed** Yes **Good for children** Yes **Toilets on site** Yes **Destination** Whitby [More attractions in Whitby](https://staycation.co.uk/whitby/attractions) ★ 4.8 (335 reviews) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Whitby **Payment** Cards, Contactless **Plus Code** 9C6XF9R4+F4 [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x487f197c22e6c575:0x112bf67ae98345a3!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x487f197c22e6c575:0x112bf67ae98345a3!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [Write a review ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x487f197c22e6c575:0x112bf67ae98345a3!12e1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Whitby Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
