  • Small adults-only tourer site set on North Yorkshire’s Centenary Way
  • Castle Howard 20 minutes’ drive and historic York 25 minutes
  • Fully-serviced hardstanding pitches; pub half an hour’s walk
Listen up, all you walkers out there – the small tourer park at Lilling Green Farm sits directly upon North Yorkshire’s Centenary Way hiking route on its way across the Howardian Hills and Yorkshire Wolds. This peaceful (and adults-only, so it will stay that way) spot is on a friendly, family-run smallholding with sheep, chickens and horses; the neatly maintained pitches all have electric hook-ups, water and views over farmland. The dog-friendly site is 10 minutes’ drive from Strensall, with bags of amenities including mini-supermarkets, a local butcher, pubs and a café. If you don’t feel like driving, you can walk down to the historic village of Sheriff Hutton in half an hour to the post office, shop or pub. As well as the Centenary Way, there are footpaths offering walks for all levels of activity and ability through the gorgeous North Yorkshire countryside directly from the pitches, and you might also like to have a potter around pretty Sheriff Hutton’s 600-year-old castle and lovely medieval church. There is plenty for non-walkers to do as well, of course, from visiting east-coast beaches (about an hour’s drive) to exploring the cultural delights of York (20 minutes).

What customers say

This is a small, peaceful, and well-maintained site with friendly and helpful owners. Guests appreciated the quiet atmosphere, lovely views, and well-kept, fully serviced pitches. The location is ideal for dog walks and exploring local areas such as York and Helmsley. Some visitors noted the absence of shower/toilet facilities, recommending the use of personal facilities. Access roads are single-lane, though managers state there are passing places. Many reviewers expressed a strong desire to return.

Paula D.

Fully-serviced gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Quiet site with friendly helpful owners. The pitches were well maintained and fully serviced. It's a small holding so got to see their sheep and wonderful sheep dogs. Only 20 mins from the park and ride into York and a huge retail park. Saw and heard owls while we were there.

Disliked Nothing. There are no shower blocks or toilets which might put some people off. But we used our own facilities.

From the manager: Thank you so much for taking the time to review our little site, we are so pleased you had a good time and hope to welcome you back again in the future.

Janet H.

Fully-serviced gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Booked here to spend time visiting York and its Christmas markets. It is about 6 miles away from Monk's Cross Park & Ride which was great as no hassle parking and going into York.
It is a small family run site with a handful of pitches and log cabins. We were welcomed by Phil when we arrived and when we left. It is clean and tidy and well kept. The pitches are fully serviced which is good as there are no shower or toilet facilities other than in the caravan. A great place to stop for our long weekend.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely informative review, Christmas is always a special time in York. We hope to be able to welcome you back again sometime in the future.

Local attractions

Keen hikers can set off along the Centenary Way straight from their pitch; this route combines riverside trails and forest tracks and links up with the Cleveland Way. Alternatively, you can head to Dalby Forest (40 minutes’ drive) to explore forest footpaths or take up the treetop rope challenge at Go Ape (45 minutes). Of course, the ancient city of York (25 minutes) looms large on local sightseeing schedules; amble around the (largely) Roman walls for city views, see how the Vikings conquered the region at JORVIK, and catch a free guided tour of the ornate, Gothic-era minster. Pick up souvenir fridge magnets and locally crafted chocolates along The Shambles, or acquaint yourself with Victorian York at the Castle Museum. Elegant Castle Howard (20 minutes) and its spectacularly laid-out parkland – scattered with follies – makes an excellent day out, or you can wander the aromatic wildflower gardens at Yorkshire Lavender (15 minutes). Fancy a day at the beach? The coastal towns of Filey, Scarborough, Whitby and Bridlington are all roughly an hour’s drive away.
