  • Family-friendly caravan park in a rural spot just off the A64
  • A 10-minute drive from central York; park and ride close by
  • Peaceful eight-acre site with spacious serviced pitches
York, oh yes indeed – and as many times as you fancy popping in too… As the name suggests, Beechwood Caravan Park York is in a most handy spot for days out in this splendid city – it’s just off the A64 and about a 10-minute drive from the city centre (or a stress-free bus ride from the park and ride two miles away). Not that you’d guess either of those facts while staying at this peaceful rural North Yorkshire site: it’s a private and sheltered spot spread over eight acres surrounded by mature trees and hedgerows. There’s plenty of space on the pitches, all of which have electric hookups and access to a chemical disposal area and recycling facilities. Other facilities at this family-friendly touring site include a washing-up area and male, female and unisex/family bathrooms with toilets, basins and full-height showers with free hot water. (Please note the facilities are not heated) Visiting York several times is a fine idea, of course, allowing you to explore the city at your leisure rather than cramming it all in. This is, however, one of those particularly fine spots where you really can mix up a bit of city time, a bit of country time and a bit of coast time. Shake things up a bit by getting to the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in about 15 minutes’ drive, the North York Moors National Park in 40 minutes and the coast at Bridlington in an hour or so.

What customers say

This is a well-maintained, peaceful campsite with spacious, level pitches, many fully serviced. Facilities are consistently described as clean, though some reviews note a lack of heating in the shower block. The location is praised for its convenience to York via park and ride or taxi, with friendly and helpful staff contributing to a positive experience. Some minor road noise is occasionally mentioned, and a lack of on-site shops or extensive walks were noted by a few visitors.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Nice quiet peaceful site.
Play area great for the kids to keep them entertained! Close enough so you can keep an eye but not too close to affect you if kids being loud.
Shower and toilet block really clean. Would recommend!
Good communication - we checked in by text as arrived later in the day.

Disliked Disliked nothing - one small suggestion would be there were quite a few empty pitches and some of us were close together so may be good to space people out further. Some faint road noise.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Spacious campsite, large level pitches with water & electricity on each. Good shower & toilet block, nice enclosed dog walk area and good access to York. The trade off is some road noise but a quiet, well run & friendly site ideal for visiting York & surrounding area.

Liked Great site. Some road noise but not too bad

Disliked The roundabout to get into site is a nightmare coming from the a64. Would in future go down towards monks cross park and ride go around the roundabout and approach from a different direction.

Liked Have stayed here a few times now, nice and quiet, on the outskirts of York but a quick taxi journey sorts that out.

Local attractions

Naturally you’ll want to start with York, for history-tinged days at the Jorvik Viking Centre and the minster, strolls down the Shambles, (free) engine-gazing at the National Railway Museum, cruises on the Ouse and sweet tales at York’s Chocolate Story. And then? Maybe for more excellent architecture at Castle Howard (25 minutes’ drive) or Ripon cathedral (45 minutes), or a journey back to the past with a steam railway ride on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway (an hour)? Or perhaps turn eyes to the skies with a trip to the Yorkshire Air Museum (10 minutes)? If you’re of the opinion that no visit to the countryside is complete until you’ve brushed a pig or milked a cow, you can get such things sorted at Piglets Adventure Farm (10 minutes). Thirsk racecourse (40 minutes) is the place if you’d rather see the horses going full pelt, while Flamingo Land Resort (half an hour) should be on the list if you’d rather hurtle along rides or meet exotic beasts. Beach time? It’s around an hour’s drive to Bridlington for a classic British seaside day out – think funfairs, amusements, donkey rides and tasty portions of fish and chips.
