Liked: The reception staff are very helpful, and the site is well managed. We were moved pitches before arrival as an assessment had been made on the ground conditions, which was great. The shower block etc we’re brilliant. They were clean, warm, and the showers were fantastic.
Disliked: The bar could be open for more hours, but maybe this is the case in the summer. The play areas could do with flooring, as they were very boggy. Again, summer I imagine is lovely

Disliked: Was very disappointed with how much they charged for electric I have a 5 bedroom house and don't use that much 15.00 for 2 days was scandalous and we were out all day on the Saturday would not stay again for them to charge that much

From the manager: Hi Sandra, we are sorry to hear that you did not like the park or enjoy your stay hear due to having to pay for your electric usage. We offer a pay as you go electric system which is a fair way for people to use or not use electric, especially as there are customers who use very little or non at all and those who use a lot more. This helps to keep our pitch fees as low as possible. Kind regards, York House Caravan Park team.

Liked: How organised the site owner was, when we arrived we had all the information we need- a map to our cabin and the parking, codes for the loos etc- she was also super friendly. The cabin was clean and cosy and the site was quiet at night- perfect for a busy couple who wanted a quiet night away! Location wise it was only a 7 minute drive into Whitby and a 30 minute drive from the North York moors which meant that our weekend was full of things to do!

Liked: Lovely clean site, facilities were close and again very clean. There is a nice little club house that serves food and drinks till 9pm. Great location .
Disliked: Thought when I paid for electric hook up , electric was included but no I had to purchase electric token. Which isn’t a problem but they need to make this clearer as we haven’t camped in years so came as a bit of a surprise.
