What customers say
This is a small, quiet, and clean campsite with spacious pitches and friendly hosts. Facilities, including toilets and showers, are well-maintained. Guests appreciated thoughtful touches like a toy box and communal fire pit. While some note occasional road and train noise, the overall experience is highly positive, with many guests recommending the site and planning return visits. A small number of minor points were raised regarding shower design and site signage.

Electric optional grass tent or campervan pitch
Liked This was my 1st trip in my van. Dove Cote is a nice site in the countryside and was quiet. With only half a dozen pitches the site has a welcoming feel. The toilets and showers are adequate and well looked after by the owners. The owners are rightly very proud of their little site and it was nice to meet Liz to tell her how good my stay was. Will definitely return soon to this beautiful little site. Some Decent pub grub within short travelling distance by car at the Black Dog Inn at Camblesforth Selby.

Electric optional grass tent or campervan pitch
Liked Such a beautiful quiet area with power outlets, clean bathrooms and shower.
Didnt smell strongly of manure or have loud farm animals waking you early morning. The managers of the site were very friendly and accommodating. We will definitely come again.

Liked Lovely little campsite, plenty of information provided ahead of our stay which meant we could just turn up, pitch up and get on with our holiday.
Plenty of space for kids to play. Showers and toilets well kept and clean. Fridge and freezer very useful, especially the freezer this week to freeze some ice packs for our days out!
Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a campsite in the area.

Excellent site
Electric optional grass tent or campervan pitch
Liked Nice small quiet area. Good toilet/shower facilities which were lovely and warm on a night time.
Disliked Not really a dislike but we came in a motorhome and we didnt realise this was not allowed. Must be a campervan. Where i come from they are the same thing lol. So you must note motorhomes are not allowed on site due to size restrictions for turning into the site. Huge apologies to the owners for our mistake.
