The steam trains pass by on the opposite bank but are not intrusive. The setting is riverside, so care needed with small children.

The complex is extremely peaceful, there are a few facilities in Ruswarp, including a reasonable bus and train service to Whitby. Garden area is shared and not enclosed. Outdoor seating is provided for each cottage. Free wifi slightly unpredictable and I couldn't get it to work in the bedroom in the evening (where I like to check my emails). Don't rely on the general store for late arrivals, bring your own tea/coffee etc. Make sure you visit the fantastic butchers shop in the village, bacon butties are brill.

Well that's it…read more Never again will I eat my breakfast in daylight. After an awesome weekend break at the gothic themed Bats and Broomsticks in Whitby I now insist upon eating all my breakfasts in a candlelit cellar to the strains of Sisters of Mercy. You may never have tried that before but once you have you will wonder how you ever breakfasted any other way. I'm feeling all dark and Mistressy just thinking about it. So to review. I believe I can sum this up neatly by saying that this warm, welcoming and quirky B&B just up the road from the heart of Whitby is PERFECT for you if you can say 'yes' to any or all of the following: 1) When I say 'Amelia' by The Mission you immediately start singing it in your head. 2) At any point in your life you have spent a weekend ruining the new DMs your badgered Mother finally bought you, to just the right degree of 'aged distress'. 3) You've ever picked holes in the cuffs of your school jumper to thrust your thumbs through. 4) You can air guitar to Alice Cooper's 'Poison'. 5) You have ever drawn spider webs on the corners of your eyelids. 6) Your father/mother/grandfather/grandmother has ever exclaimed you look like you are 'going to a funeral'. 7) You have ever deliberately sat in the shade on a sunny day drinking Cider and referring to those playing in the sunlight as 'The Others'. 8) You still refer to anyone as a 'Norm'. 9) You know what Stargazer Pitch Black is. 10) You have ever owned a dress or shirt made of crumpled velvet. Score double here if it was dark purple or had leather threading at the neck. So what are you waiting for my little Lestats and Booberellas?? Drag yourselves out of the dirt of your homelands and go for a thoroughly satisfying dark skulk around Whitby. You know you want to.

It's been going some 20 years this year. About 3 or 4 thousand turn up & have a great time. The local community welcome the bikers in pubs & shops without issue, although I'm sure the volume of the music is an issue for some. The site itself is in a nice location with a small but perfectly formed castle nestling in the trees. Open fields surround the caravan/ holiday home areas. The castle has the amenities located within ie bars & food. The site is located in the area of weardale & teesdale, perfect for visiting local attractions & the city of Durham. I would certainly recommend it both for the bike rally & a place to take a vacation.
