Meadow non-electric grass tent or campervan pitch

Liked: Beautiful site. Well maintained. Lake swimming ( we also used the sauna) was a really lovely experience. The meadow is peaceful and magical to have a fire pit under the trees.

Disliked: not the nicest shower but currently increasing shower facilities

Meadow non-electric grass tent or campervan pitch

Meadow non-electric grass tent or campervan pitch

Liked: Lovely setting, excellent friendly staff. Idyllic swimming lakes. Large flat field. Plenty of space. We did have a lovely weekend stay, Swimming, Sauna (paid extra), local walk, running, pub. Would recommend the swimming, not camping.

Disliked: No tap, showers, toilets washing up, at the camp field. Significant walk to a small, shared block shared with day visitors. Only one shower! One washing up sink. The cost for this is far too high. The most expensive campsite I have ever stayed on. I have had better amenities on £5 a night farmer's field. My score is just for the camping and value for money.

Meadow non-electric grass tent or campervan pitch

Liked: Great pools, handsome & mature planting of trees and around the lakes and Meadow, relaxed admin, distance of Meadow from facilities, bird song, carp in ‘secret’ pool. Staff in café very friendly and helpful.

Disliked: Rough roads, distance from Meadow to facilities (!), insufficient facilities (I can see new buildings being started though). Lake access points sometimes difficult for the aged & infirm, improvements would be welcome.

Caroline G. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Meadow non-electric grass tent or campervan pitch

Liked: Pool Bridge Farm is a very special place. It is a beautiful peaceful place to relax and unwind. The camping field was flat and dry surrounded by trees and birdsong. The swimming lakes that are included for camping are truly spectacular. So well kept with basic but great facilities. The saunas were also gorgeous.

Disliked: The camping field is due for a toilet and shower block soon. This will make a real difference as the water tap and showers are a long way from the campsite and the portaloos were dirty and smelly.

Meadow non-electric grass tent or campervan pitch

Liked: The camp is tranquil and I got to combine 2 hobbies at the same time wild swimming 🏊‍♂️ and camping 🏕 as iam new to the swimming part I found allmthe other participant's welcoming and had so much knowledge to share. A great 3 night break for me and my camping friend. Glad they are investing in both sides of my hobbies to make all stays e joyable for all. Loved that Jack the ja know joined us for hot chocolate and cake after our swim.

Local attractions

You can cycle into York (30 minutes by bike) along a bridleway accessed from the farm – there’s also a regular bus service passing the farm entrance. Stroll around Roman walls, tour the Gothic Minster and check out the locomotives in National Railway Museum York. Have a flutter at York Racecourse (both 15 minutes’ drive) and spend all your winnings in the designer boutiques at Designer Outlet York (10 minutes). Alternatively, head off into the North York Moors National Park (50 minutes) for biking and walking over glorious moorland – to add an architectural element to your rambles, wander around the ruins of Rievaulx Abbey (50 minutes) or explore follies and temples in the landscaped grounds at Castle Howard (30 minutes). If you’ve got kids on board, Jorvik Viking Centre is a top spot for its immersive tour around a replica Viking village (complete with smells), or you can book tasting sessions at York’s Chocolate Story (both 15 minutes). Older kids might love ghost tours of night-time streets, but younger children should probably stick to the cute goats and mini-train rides at Piglets Adventure Farm (20 minutes).
