Pinewood Holiday Park is a small, family run site, ideally situated within walking distance of the town centre, approximately two miles, and there is pathway to follow all the way into the town. We are extremely lucky to be surrounded by glorious open countryside within the stunning Yorkshire Wolds, and yet so close to so many nearby attractions and places to visit.
We are a family run business and we pride ourselves on offering impeccable customer service. We have many, many customers who return year after year - but every customer, whether new or old, will always be greeted with a big Yorkshire smile!
Fantastic views over the countryside, with many lovely walks nearby.
We have 7 acres of land at Pinewood; consisting of an adult only caravan area with 5 electric hook up pitches on hard standings, a tenting area, a Tipi tenting area, a seperate field, and a woodland area. We also have a vey modern, clean, and spacious toilet and shower block.
Pinewood is split into 3 seperate areas.
The main caravan and camping site is adult only and has 5 caravan/camping pitches with metered electric hook ups.
The second area is our tenting field, which has 14 electric hook ups.
The third area is our Tipi camp. Some of our Tipis also have the luxury of access to metered electric hook up points if required.
Well behaved dogs are also very welcome; we do not charge any extra, but we do ask that they are kept on a lead at all times, and walked off site - next to our site is a brilliant dog walking path, with open countryside, and stunning views.
We have very well spaced out pitches, to enjoy the quietness of our site.
'CAMP PINEWOOD' is our Tipi camp and we have 4 types of tents to choose from:
We have 4 large authenitic American Indian Tipis (or teepees), which come complete with wooden floors, on a large decked area with a picnic bench, carpets, rugs, a full size brown faux leather futon bed and 2 faux leather cube beds. These do have the luxury of access to electric, which is metered to avoid wastage, and there is an electric fire for extra cosiness on a night. These Tipis are based on the traditional ways the Indians would have made a Tipi, with 15 wooden poles and natural cotton canvas and are very spacious.
We have 8 large canvas 'modern' Tipi tents; which have 1 central pole instead of 15 wooden poles. These are still very spacious, and are on wooden decks, with a picnic bench on the grass, with carpets, an electric fire and an electric point (metered), a full size faux brown leather futon and 2 faux brown leather cube chair/beds. These Tipis are great fun and very popular.
We have 2 cowboy cavalry Tipi tents. These are 90% similar to our modern Tipis - still made from canvas with a central pole - same spacious size, but slightly different shape. These are sited on grass with a picnic bench outside, with carpets, a double futon and 2 single cube beds. These also have an electric pretend 'wood burning' fire and also an electric socket (metered).
We also offer unfurnised 'back to basics' Tipis - empty and ready for you to bring all your own belongings. These are situated in our wooded area, slightly further away (but not isolated) from the other Tipis. We are offering these unfurnished, as we have found that some guests already have their own camping gear, but would love to experience a Tipi holiday. These Tipis do however, have real wood burning stoves. These unfurnished Tipis offer a cheaper alternative to our other furnished ones.
We introduced access to electric in our furnished Tipis because some guests have said that while they enjoy getting away from 'it all', and enjoying a new and different holiday experience, they would also like to have a couple of home comforts; like a lamp or a potable DVD palyer to quieten the kids down after a hectic day! And ofcourse there's the hair straightners that many guests just can't live without!! We feel that by offering the electric, we are giving our guests the choice, and by metering it, our guests pay for the electricity which they use - so we can continuing our 'green eco' ethics, as guests are careful not to leave electricity on unnecessarily. By doing this, we can also provide very reasonable Tipi holidays.
