Ready for a ghost hunt in your motorhome? These are the spookiest sites that the UK has to offer.
With a history as bloody and terrifying as the UK’s, you can guarantee a good ghost hunt somewhere around the eerie isles. If Halloween is your kind of holiday, then take note of these notoriously haunted spots in the UK. We’ve rounded up three of the scariest places that are sure to keep you on the edge of your seat if you ever visit!
From wicked witches to haunted houses and ghost-infested castles, these are the destinations that will send shivers down your spine around every corner.
Pendle Hill is home to the twelve Pendle Witches who were hanged at Lancaster Castle in 1612 and buried on the ominous location overlooking the village of Newchurch. A popular Halloween activity among ghost hunters is climbing to the top of the hill on Halloween to see if they can spot any paranormal activity. After catching some chills, you can go warm up in the nearby Rising Sun Pub and sample their witchy brews like Witchfinder General and Broomstick Bitter. As for campsites, we recommend Pendle Prospects to catch some sleep afterwards… if you can!
There is an alleged number of ghosts residing in Berry Pomeroy castle, but one known as the White Lady haunts the dungeons and has been seen rising from St. Margaret’s Tower above the Castle walls. Experts have identified her as the ghost of Lady Margaret Pomeroy who was imprisoned by her sister, Lady Eleanor. Sounds scary…but fear not! You can warm the cockles next to a log fire afterwards in The Pig and Whistle Pub situated just a ten-minute drive away. If you’re looking for a nearby camping spot, we recommend Widend touring park which is a five-minute drive from the castle.
Whitby is a picturesque seaside town by day, but nighttime is another story! Especially if you dare to embark on the Whitby Ghost Walk. This is a 75-minute ghostly experience that takes you on a grisly tour through time, exposing all the murder and bloodthirsty history of Whitby. Most famously spotted are a headless horseman, barghest hound, a haunted lighthouse, Dracula’s bench and the hand of glory. As well as exploring all that Whitby has to offer on your trip, you can choose from many nearby camping sites such as Bay Ness Farm and Middlewood Farm Holiday Park.
Happy haunting in the motorhome!

"Great company, great service, friendly and helpful staff. Lee and Julian are very approachable and knowledgeable, always willing to go that extra mile, even out of hours. Highly recommended."
"Nice to be able to go to look out motorhmes And not have the sales person follow you around, they came and said hello explained that all the Van's were open and more that welcome to look inside and if you need any more information just come and ask. Now that's my sort of experience I like and all the staff we meet were very friendly and helpful."
"Thank you for my van and the collection service you offered us. We drove away in the pouring rain feeling on a high for all you had done to make the collection and purchase go so well."
"Dear Andy and Steve, I just wanted to drop you both a line to say thanks for a great day when we came to collect our Starblazer Motorhome. And to thank the valeters for all the hard work that they have done on it. IT LOOKS FANTASTIC. It has been a great experience dealing with Timberland. Everyone has been most helpful and friendly."
"Came down to get a feel for what kind of motorhome would suit me and my partner. I was delighted at how we were looked after by the staff. It was a cold day so hot drinks were offered and the staff were happy to let us wander around. Great service."
"Have purchased my last 3 motorhomes from here the staff are all very knowledgeable and friendly and always willing to go that extra mile."
"We have bought 4 new motorhomes from Timberland and have always received good service. We have never had the hard sell we received from other dealers, Lee and Julian are approachable and happy to advise, and assist where necessary, leaving us to mull over proposed purchases in our own time. We will be back to Timberland when it is time to buy the next van."
"I have been a customer for, almost, eighteen years and currently own my eighth motorhome. I have had issues with some of my vehicles but all have been resolved at the earliest possible date, as I live 148 miles away. I have NEVER had just cause not to trust anyone at Timberland and would certainly never take my business elsewhere. They have all become my friends over the years and I class them as my second family..enough said."
"We just wanted to thank you for making our stay so pleasant when we had to have repairs carried out on our motorhome. A special thank you to Simon and Lee as we feel that they went out of their way to help. Again our Thanks."
"Thank you to Gary, who sold us our Autotrail Cheyenne, who made paying for it almost a pleasure. We have no hesitation in recommending Timberland to all."
"Visited yesterday and received a very warm welcome. Large range of motorhomes and the sales people very happy to show us around. Spending time to find out what we wanted for our budget...."
"My husband and I wish to express our thanks and appreciation for the excellent service we received from everyone when we recently purchased our motorhome. Good service is a rarity these days; hard to find and much-valued."
