Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Spacious between pitches. The site was very clean and showers and toilet blocks we maintained. The setting is lovely and peaceful and the saff were very relaxed and extremely helpful. We had bikes and enjoyed a flat ride into York, easy from the site on the White Rose Trail (65). We left our bikes at York train station. The ride is 30 miles return but very easy cycling.

Andrew B.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Site set up was excellent and staff very friendly. Very nice site.

Disliked Only problem for us was the motorhome was too big to just drive out on a day & there wasn’t much out and about we could walk to, so generally stayed on site.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for the positives! Very kind of you.

As for the size of your motorhome.....well....that's beyond our powers. You could get a smaller one? Or bikes? And we do have a super bus service that could whisk you to York (Minster, Railway Museum, historic walks, ghost trail, Betty's Tea Rooms and The Shambles) or Leeds Armouries, Helmsley or Fountains Abbey, Beninborough Hall or the heaven on earth that is the East Coast.....In the absence of a bike Shanks' Pony can take you anywhere as long as the batteries last.

Friendly and helpful staff ,clean level pitch .

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked It's a very big site. The staff were very friendly. It was easy to find. There are lots of water stations. The wifi was good.
You need a fob to access the main gate, which felt secure.
There is a nice dog walking area.
The campsite was clean.

Disliked The facilities are a bit older and it could get a bit busy at peak times. It wasn't super dirty, but it wasn't super clean either.

From the manager: Merci. Je suis désolé que vous ayez pensé que les sanitaires étaient quelque part entre très sales et très propres. Oui, un batiment est légèrement long dans la dent mais nous travaillons dur pour les maintenir à un niveau élevé, comme le reflètent nos prix cinq étoiles.

Merci pour le retour positif.

Liked Superb pitches, the space was amazing.

Disliked Not a criticism of the site. Buses ran every two hours which was frustrating, but we know the area so it might not be a problem for anyone not familiar with the area.

Local attractions

In less than half an hour, guests will find all sorts of things to do: take to two wheels for a trip to York (nine miles down the White Rose Cycle Route), which is packed with brilliant stuff including the minster and Jorvik Viking Centre; steam through the North York Moors on a vintage train, or explore the wildlife and scenery of the Yorkshire Dales via Shanks' pony… Holidaymakers can revisit Brideshead at Castle Howard palace and gardens, be transported back to the sights and sounds of World War Two at the Eden Camp Museum, and take in the grand National Trust mansions of Beningbrough Hall and Nunnington Hall, or the stunning walled gardens at Helmsley. If the kids start being beastly, you can always cart them off to the Flamingo Land zoo and theme park. This being Yorkshire, you're never far from a bonny watering hole – and there are some cracking food pubs or inns nearby, including Aldwark Arms at Aldwark and The Blue Bell in Alne. Visitors can also see how the local ales are made at the Black Sheep Brewery, which naturally offers lots of samples of its award-winning brews.
