The crunch of gravel under your boots and the wide East Yorkshire sky — Thornthorpe sits in working farmland where the air smells clean and the evenings settle in quietly.

This is a straightforward spot for tent campers and campervans who prefer simplicity over polish. It's the kind of place walkers and couples find when they want to escape the manicured touring parks — peaceful, unpretentious, and genuinely rural. If you're bringing the dog, ask ahead to confirm. The East Riding landscape around here is gentle rolling fields and bridleways, perfect for stretching your legs without the drama of fell or coast.

Facilities aren't specified, so this is one to contact directly before booking to check what's onsite — showers, hookups, that sort of thing. Campfires may be allowed depending on conditions, so ask when you arrive. Expect a low-key, farmer-run vibe where you pitch up, settle in, and let the countryside do the talking. No frills, no fuss — just Yorkshire space and quiet.

Centenary Way

Stretches 134km across North Yorkshire from York to Filey, mixing flat riverside paths, rolling farmland, and gentle chalk wolds with some moderate climbs through the Howardian Hills. Generally well-marked with good surfaces, though longer sections make it more suitable for experienced walkers tackling it in stages. Dogs welcome throughout on leads near livestock. The varied landscape rewards you with historic villages, dramatic coastal finale at Filey Brigg, and genuine Yorkshire countryside aw

White Rose Way

Stretches across North Yorkshire's varied landscape, linking historic towns and countryside with a mix of gentle farmland, rolling hills, and some challenging moorland sections. Suitable for experienced walkers rather than families with young children or buggies due to length and terrain changes. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock. Worth doing for the diverse scenery, from riverside paths to open moorland, plus connections to Yorkshire's heritage sites and charming villages along this long-dis

Chalkland Way

Follows chalk ridges and limestone edges across the Yorkshire Wolds for 59km, mostly gentle rolling terrain with some moderate climbs offering expansive views over East Yorkshire. The well-waymarked trail crosses farmland, quiet villages and ancient trackways, suitable for experienced walkers tackling multi-day sections but too long and remote for young children or buggies. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock. Worth it for the big skies, dry underfoot conditions even after rain thanks to chalk
