Beech Farm

Positiv Fridge & hair dryer.

Negativ No mirror above basin in toilet for brushing teeth so people brushed there teeth in the sinks where you clean your dishes. Not sites fault but if mirrors were in with toilets people wouldnt do this.

Vom Platzbetreiber: I was really surprised by this review as giving four stars for a ‘basic site’ seemed so odd. You literally decided to book a basic site. It’s all in the description.. you can’t possibly have expected a bar, pool, clubhouse etc- you actively chose somewhere basic but beautiful.

I went to see who had written the review- all is revealed- they aren’t happy as I had to text them to ask them to slow down passing our house. They were driving ridiculously fast past the farm house, if a child or a chicken had stepped out from behind the hedge there is no way they could have stopped- so disrespectful. What sort of person ignores innumerable signs and just speeds past a house, knowing full well there are children there.

If future campers are reading this review please note we are lowering our tolerancy on this. Anyone driving up and down the lane over 15 mph will simply be asked to leave immediately.

Also just to note, I parked in York one day last week, it cost me £21 for the whole day. I didnt get any facilities, and it was totally crowded and stressful- please don’t act like around £25 is a lot for a night away, the toilet block, though basic, cost around £35000 to build, that’s an awful lot before we break even, not to mention children being silly and wasting hot water in and out the showers.

We have had so many wonderful campers, please please make sure we are what you want before booking with us. As comments like this are dragging us down

Positiv Clean, quiet, well-organised campsite. Great to have use of the kettle and to be able to cycle around the grounds. Easy to get to York and Whitby by car. We also visited Yorkshire Sculpture Park from here, although it’s not super close.

Positiv This is a really lovely site. Very well maintained, very clean and thoughtful kitchen items available if you have forgotten matches or essentials. The view across the fields is great. There were only 5 other tents when we stayed so felt very spacious. Not sure whether it gets much busier at peak holiday times but for us it was spacious and quiet and just right.

Negativ Not sure if WiFi was available- didn’t see any information about it but forgot to check!

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you for your lovely review. We would love to have you back. No WiFi available as yet but I think 5g is very good in the field

Positiv This was a lovely family friendly campsite. The facilities were good and well kept. The grass was nice and short and there was plenty of space for the kids to run about and play games.

Negativ Some other campers were noisy past quiet time, although not the owners fault maybe a sign to reinforce the quiet times would assist with this.

Apologies for the other campers. They were absolute heathens, we have now employed a night watchmen to dispatch any such sorts as soon as the start behaving badly

Positiv Friendly owners and other campers. Our grandchildren made 3 new friends for the evening.
Excellent communication from the owners, with instructions for arrival.
Quiet location.
Animals, (goats, donkeys & chickens), entertained the grandchildren.
Toilet block basic, (2 showers & 2 toilets) but clean & sufficient.
Small kitchen area equipped with communal freezer, kettle etc.
We would certainly stay again if over that way.

Negativ Not a dislike, it suited us fine but it has to be appreciated that the site is a “field” not a commercial playground. Our grandchildren loved the “farmness” of it.
We never considered wi-fi. Would doubt that it is there but mobile reception was fine.
Turning left from the site, (with larger motorhome or caravan), as a narrow bridge is very narrow. We only got through with an inch or so to spare.

Positiv The site itself, fantastic, I cant flaw anything, it was exactly as described. Honestly a brilliant remote place to camp. Staff where brilliant. Seeing the farming equipment when you drive in and out and seeing it in use (Bit gutted we didn't get to see the harvester with the boom out but, cant predict that as someone who knows nothing about farming) Honestly brilliant, Toilets where clean a stocked up, Shower worked quickly.

We even managed to see a falcon about 50ft away from us, and a Murder of about 30 crows eating all the earwigs in the wheat fields.

Negativ If I had to picky about the site, if I really had too, The open top toilet and showers, but I'm really struggling to be that picky.

The only problems I had on this trip was a couple of other campers, Which isn't the sites fault. We had three young women screaming, staring at us as they walked past. They seemed rather inexperienced which isn't anyone's fault we all start somewhere, but a fly landing on you is a normal thing camping, don't wake everyone up because of it. The main problem was there high school popular bully characteristics. Caused quite the upset in our tent at one point. Our neighbours also kept complaining about there behaviour and attitude. Again, That's not a fault of the site though. This happens camping. We even repaired someone's tent that collapsed while they where away and there thanks was "I was just hoping someone else would fix it for me"
