Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked: A wonderful, peaceful site with huge pitches hard standing pitches and some lovely landscaping including a very pretty lake with an island in the centre ( from which we saw a huge heron gracefully take flight on our first evening). We were greeted by friendly staff to show us our pitch and brief us about the facilities. The toilet and shower block are fantastic! Spotlessly clean and toasty warm. Loved the eco friendly vibe, the nature trail and the sound of the curlew.
Disliked: Not a dislike as such, but useful for campers to know the toilets are closed between 10:30 and 12 daily for cleaning. Also the bar has limited opening hours on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. You need transport for this site as shops and pubs are not really within walking distance.

From the manager: Hi Clare, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, and we hope you enjoyed your stay with us. Please note the toilets are closed for cleaning but we do have a family bathroom, which can be used whilst the facilities are been cleaned. We hope we can welcome you back to Flaxton Meadows very soon.

Liked: The site is beautiful, well laid out and standard of facilities second to none. Onsite bar is excellent. The site is well run by a lovely couple who were very welcoming, helpful and hard working.
Disliked: The hard standing pitches can be very difficult to knock awning pegs into - take a good hammer and good quality pegs and plenty of patience

Liked: The welcome to the site from Lucy & Micheal they explained everything to us. The toilet & shower block was amazing so clean & warm. There was a bar on site which was great but unfortunately we didn’t get to use it, next time we will. We went to York & Scarborough by car. Site 5 Star 🌟
