Spiers House Yorkshire Site no: UK015

Set amidst the rugged splendour of the North York Moors, Spiers House combines a forest location with easy access to some of the world’s finest moorland.

This popular family site nestles in a spacious, grassy clearing inside Cropton Forest itself, making it ideal for forest walks as well as for discovering the wider beauties of the North Yorkshire Moors. You can join the Spiers House Forest Ranger on forest and moorland walks from as little as a mile, right up to more than 10 miles; while if you prefer to go your own way, there are plenty of paths to explore on foot and bicycle, and stunning views to stumble upon.

A UK Escapes break is all about returning to nature, so you won't find electricity or a fridge in our UK tents. To make your stay comfortable though, a cool box (ice packs available on-site) and lanterns with rechargable batteries are provided.
