Overall lovely clean friendly site
All-weather electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Spacious pitches, spotlessly clean facilities, which were never busy, nice friendly welcome on arrival.
Disliked Not too much of a problem for myself, however there did seem a lot of children running about, perhaps due to our location being close to park facilities.
Was a little bit out of the way, requiring a drive to shops, or drive to park and ride to visit York
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review and for choosing to stay at York Meadows Caravan Park. We’re so pleased you enjoyed the spacious pitches, clean facilities and friendly welcome from the team.
We appreciate your feedback regarding the children around the play area. During busy periods and bank holidays especially, the park can become lively with families enjoying the facilities, particularly on pitches located nearby.
As for our location, many guests enjoy the peaceful countryside setting while still being within easy reach of York via the nearby park and ride, but we understand it may feel a little further out for those wanting shops and attractions closer by.
We hope to welcome you back again in the future.

Great site would deffo recommend.
All-weather electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked The staff were really friendly and helpful en arrival. There is good space between pitches. The toilet block and showers were great. The showers were really nice and hot. The site was clean and tidy. Would really recommend this site. We didn't try the WiFi as I had my own hot spot so can't comment on that. But on the whole we had a great time and would deffo bring our children next time as the park area and football pitch would suit them. We also walked to sherriff Hutton which was nice for a wonder round. The highwayman pub was good. We didn't try food but not a bad walk from the site for a pint and a nice log fire.
Disliked Nothing.
