Not many pitches.
But special ones.

Tucked away on a small family farm in the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Greets Farm is a level, two-acre Certificated Site (CS) offering a laid back and relaxed atmosphere, space and open countryside views — with the added bonus of being just a mile's easy stroll from the charming village of Welburn.

Our adults-only site has been welcoming guests for 15-plus years. Visitors love the rural farm feel — sheep grazing in neighbouring fields, views stretching towards Castle Howard — yet without feeling cut off from good food, local attractions and excellent transport links. For an impressive three times the site has been nominated for the Camping and Caravanning Club's Best CS Award and continues to earn five-star reviews on UKCampsite.co.uk.

Sarah and Marcus Lyon run the site with the care and attention that only a small, family-run place can offer. Five pitches. Open countryside. Castle Howard just down the road. Call Sarah on 07918 070716 to check availability, or book online.
