About Us

Welcome to The Vale of Pickering Caravan & Camping Park — a 5-star, family-run holiday park set in the beautiful North Yorkshire countryside. Located on Carr House Farm in Allerston, our award-winning park offers spacious pitches, modern facilities, and a relaxed atmosphere perfect for families, couples, and explorers alike.

Since opening in 1985, the Stockdale family has carefully developed the park from just a handful of pitches into one of the region’s most highly regarded caravan and camping destinations. Every improvement we make is guided by a simple goal: to help our guests enjoy an unforgettable and stress-free stay in “God’s Own County.”

Our Story

What began as a small family idea has grown into a 15-acre holiday haven. Over the decades, we’ve invested continuously in our grounds, our facilities, and the guest experience — while preserving the welcoming, personal touch that families return for year after year.

Today, the park remains proudly family-run, and our team works hard to ensure every visitor receives a warm Yorkshire welcome.
