Midsummer Campsite in North Yorkshire is a well-maintained, family-run site offering a peaceful base for exploring the North York Moors, Pickering, Malton, York, Scarborough, Whitby, and the charming village of Thornton-le-Dale. The site is praised for its spacious, level pitches, available as both hardstanding and grass options, often with water and electric hookups. The owners are consistently described as welcoming, helpful, and quick to resolve issues, contributing to a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Families love the children's playground, goal posts, and badminton net, which are visible from many pitches and keep kids entertained. The site maintains a quiet and peaceful vibe, though some road noise from a nearby main road is occasionally mentioned. Cleanliness of the toilets and showers receives mixed feedback: many guests find them spotless and modern, but recent reviews note they are outdated and insufficient, especially during peak season, with occasional odors and overflowing bins. A recurring and serious concern is the water quality, which is often cloudy with an unpleasant rotten-egg smell, leaving guests hesitant to drink it or even shower; bringing bottled water is strongly recommended. There is no dedicated reception office, and check-in can be unclear due to poor signage. Mobile phone signal and WiFi are virtually nonexistent, and the chemical disposal point can be unpleasant. Some noise from other campers and large groups has been reported, particularly late in the evening. The gravel surface can be challenging for those with mobility scooters. Despite these drawbacks, the well-kept pitches, excellent location, and friendly service make it a site many visitors say they would return to.
