Explore

With so much space to explore and activities to enjoy, our country estate is the perfect home for your staycation.

Our home

Camp Kátur is based on the 300-acre Camp Hill Estate’ and the family home of the Ropner family who are passionate about preserving their perfect part of North Yorkshire, being responsible custodians of the Estate and sharing their home and all that North Yorkshire has to offer with their guests. "After 11 amazing years of welcoming so many happy glampers to our woodland home, the time has come for us to make some minor changes and focus our efforts on pre-booked group bookings, such as Weddings, Corporate events and Retreats. This gives our small team a chance to elevate the guest experience and allows visitors site exclusivity and the ultimate environment to create memories and truly connect with nature here at Camp Katur." - The Ropner Family

Bright eyed and bushy tailed

With so much to do on the Estate, you’ll never have to leave. From bird watching in the meadows, to time spent roaming the 270-acre woodland, to trailing the paths and finding the hidden corners, there’s so much to explore. You’ll see trails marked around the Estate, but feel free to roam and wander, we just ask that you’re sympathetic to the animals in their natural habitat. We’re also proud holders of ‘Dark Sky Status’ – we have little light pollution on site and are positioned between two ‘Dark Sky Reserves’. On a clear night, the sky above us is just beautiful and to be enjoyed around a fire pit, with a glass of Red perhaps!

Adventures in Nature

We have various activities to do on the Estate, such as our Woodland Kingdom, Swing Park, Football Pitch or spend time gather branches to build the perfect den. We also have a small holding with sheep, chickens and the occasional pigs! Lots of our guests enjoy walking to our ‘Plane Crash’ or having a champagne picnic on one of the meadows – there’s so much to do and the Camp Kátur team will be happy to help you plan your stay. A perfect break for families & big kids, with so much safe space to play and little or no traffic.

Active Breaks

Camp Kátur is the perfect chance for an active break, why not bring your bikes and explore the Yorkshire Dales, work out in our Outdoor Gym with timed circuits, run our 5km trail or just count your steps as you roam.
