Ruth K. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: Peaceful

Disliked: 2 ladies toilets with broken seats and not cleaned everyday. Everyone (including those who were here for the fishing and not staying in touring area) using the disabled showers as radar key hanging up and the mens showers had lack of privacy. Not really a caravan touring site as this site is for hard-core fishermen and fishing only by pole. If you come here at end of August the local farmers are muck-spreading so you are unable to sit outside as the smell is so strong it makes you gag! Spoilt our last 3 days so we went home early. Did not see owners at all - no welcome whatsoever.

From the manager: Hi Ruth, Thank you for your review, We do have a problem with the seats in the lady’s as sometimes they unclick themselves as they are a new design of toilet seat which we are looking at replacing as we keep having to click them back on. We totally agree with the chicken muck smell which lasted a day and a half it was awful and luckily it was a one off, a poultry farmer some miles away from the site had piled loads of chicken muck just a field away ready to spread and plough into the fields however he left it there for 2 days and the strong wind was in perfect alignment with the site, this doesn’t happen regularly just to inform others, we are however near a pig farm which does smell occasionally if the wind is in certain direction.

A quiet well laid out and level site.…

Liked: A quiet well laid out and level site.

Disliked: We were near the facilities and the lights were very bright not subtle for sleeping. We were surprised that we couldn’t find general rubbish bins and more importantly to us recycling bins. We didn’t use the facilities so cannot comment.

Local attractions

Even if you're not one of the fisherfolk, you'll find lots to do all year round from The Oaks Lakes Caravan Park, whether you want to stride off into the moors and surrounding countryside or go urban among local towns and cities. The walks, bike rides and tours of the North York Moors National Park a short distance away are rather legendary, as is nearby Brontë country around Haworth, the Vale of York and York city with minster and Jorvik Viking Centre. Spa town Harrogate is a short drive away. To the east, hit the superb Yorkshire coastline and famed seaside spots like Scarborough, Filey and Whitby for family days out, wildlife watching and getting close to the Dracula legend at Whitby's clifftop abbey. An abundance of stately homes, castles, abbeys and historic houses is also in the area, such as Castle Howard, Helmsley Castle, Beningbrough Hall, Newby Hall, Duncombe Park and the abbeys of Byland, Rievaulx and Fountains.
