  • Peaceful rural site under five miles from the centre of York
  • Reach the city centre with a five-minute walk and a 15-minute bus
  • Camping kitchen, play area and Australian barbecue; dogs welcome
Staying in the city isn’t for everyone; some would much rather cradle their morning cuppa in a peaceful field somewhere nearby before popping in for a daytime wander. If that's you, take a look at Ashfield Touring Caravan Park, just under five miles from the historic city centre of York. There are no busy city streets here, that’s for sure – the family-run site is surrounded by green fields. However, you’re still all set to stroll along The Shambles, snap pictures of York Minster and sink your teeth into the city’s famed chocolates by day. You see, Ashfield Touring Caravan Park is just a five-minute walk away from the nearest bus stop for a 15-minute ride into the city centre. It’s peaceful and scenic out in this rural part of Yorkshire. Grab a freshly baked treat from the on-site cake shed (open Friday to Sunday) before taking a morning stroll in Hagg Wood, a mile away. If you're a cyclist, get your bike ready for some action along The Route 66 Dunnington or the Stamford Bridge cycle route too; both are nearby. After your day on the trails – or city streets – you should be pleased to reunite with the excellent facilities back on site. A heated shower and toilet block has music and accessible facilities. There’s a camping kitchen with a microwave, kettle, toaster, fridge and freezer to help you prep and pack your meals. The kids have a play area at their disposal, and it’s next to a picnic space and Australian-style barbecue. And that's not all. The site also has a licensed shop selling essentials, plus a washing-up area, laundry facilities, chemical waste disposal, fresh water points and wifi.

Electric optional hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Beautiful quiet well kept site. Facilities were spotless. Hot showers. Pay seperately for electric and 20p for a shower. We used our electic heating in the van for 3 nights and this was at an extra cost of only £7. Jenny was so helpful with the walks around the area and bus times to York. Dunnington village a short walk from the site.Lovely pub for food. Bus stop 5 min walk from site and 20min ride to york. Highly recommend 👌

Electric optional hardstanding touring pitch

Liked We had a lovely stay at this campsite. The site was really well kept, a nice size, and a pleasant place to stay. We had a pitch with the option of electric hook-up, although we chose not to use it. The play park was great and a lovely addition to the site for younger ones. It was also handy to have a bus nearby to get to and from York.

Disliked Personally, we prefer to have the option to select and pay for electric when booking online, as it just makes things easier for us. We also feel that showers should be included in the price rather than charged as an extra, although we were aware of this before arriving.

Electric optional hardstanding touring pitch

Liked This can only only be described as an absolute gem of a site. Rob and Jenny are so approachable and nothing is too much for them. Fantastic dog walks on your doorstep, a well stocked shop on site for anything you may have forgotten. The showers and toilet facilities are probably the cleanest we have found. This is certainly one site that we will be returning, time and time again.

Disliked Nothing, everything was perfect for us.

Electric optional hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Lovely small quiet site. We wanted somewhere not too far away for our first time touring in our caravan. We were greeted by a lovely lady who helped me get my caravan onto its pitch I was so grateful. She was really nice and explained thoroughly. The site was cute and really nice and clean. The shower blocks were nice and well cleaned and checked all the time. The other guest on site were nice and friendly. Nice woods and walks near by and very local to shops and York city centre. We will be back thank you.

Disliked Nothing to improve.

Electric optional hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Site and facilities were immaculate and showers were hot and clean. A very short walk to the bus stop on the main road from the site to catch a bus into York. This was very convenient. The kids play area looked great. The owners were very friendly & approachable, taking time to have a little chat. We will definitely be back for future York trips.

Disliked It was a little tight accessing our pitch with the van due to parked cars but they very kindly offered to move to make it easier.

Local attractions

York is right there (a five-minute walk and a 15-minute bus ride) for walks down the alleys that inspired the Harry Potter world's Diagon Alley. York's museums will show you everything from a reconstructed Viking village to York’s chocolate heritage. All sorts of activities take place in the city too, like escape rooms and ghost walks, and it's packed with a wide variety of restaurants and shops. Once you’ve got your fill of the city, whisk the kids over to the York Maze (five minutes’ drive) to tackle the giant corn maze. They should also like a little trip to the Beetle Bank Farm (five minutes), where you can walk the alpacas and say hello to other farmyard creatures like goats, pigs and rabbits. Further afield are the walks of the North York Moors National Park (40 minutes) and Yorkshire Dales National Park (an hour), and the beaches of the east coast: tick off Scarborough, Bridlington and Hornsea (all within an hour or so).
