Monday 13th July – Friday 17th July 2009
The Caravan Club website seems to be confused with the Castleton in North Yorkshire and the one in Derbyshire as they have all C/Ls in these towns listed in both regions. Wild Slack Farm is in North Yorkshire and if you haven’t yet visited you really need to put it on your list of things to do. The C/L is in a separate area to the adjoining small commercial site, but all pitches have stunning views over the surrounding moors. Martin Foord, the owner is never very far away and always manages to appear when you arrive. He will show you the available pitches and offers advice on the best way to set up your outfit as some pitches do slope. There are a couple of showers [50p token] and a washing machine and dryer are available.
The surrounding area is ideal for walking, and there are many interesting places to visit further afield by car. A leaflet is given to new arrivals detailing local attractions and provides useful information about the surrounding area.
Bus and rail facilities are available in nearby Lealholme which is about 1 mile away. There is a shop, garage and pub in the village, but if you require more substantial facilities you will have to travel to Castleton or further afield to Whitby.
I have found a useful site for information on digital TV which will tell you the direction to point your aerial. Put in the postcode and name of the site and tick the box for professional aerial installers,
