Powered concrete slab caravan site

Liked: Playgrounds and nice location.

Disliked: Our electric hook up kept tripping out frequently. The pitch was on a slant. Ground was hard to peg into and also waterlogged muddy areas. The indoor area was pretty much empty. The showers were in the toilets and were open and cold. We found the staff extremely arrogant and sarcastic. This is also including the manager. We were made to feel patronised when asking for help. We were unaware that we were unable to have an extra visitor stay for the night who had driven all the way with us, and they had no option but to travel all the way home to bring their own tent and pay another pitch fee and then drive all the way back (3hr journey). They wouldn’t allow them to stay in our awning. It did not state this on their terms and conditions. I will not be returning or recommending.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Really nice site, fab for the kids. They loved the parks. Nice clean toilet and shower blocks. Showers were hot and powerful. The shop has a good selection of things. Staff are lovely. We had a good time despite the rainy weather.

Disliked: The only thing is, after putting our tent size in when booking, we then got charged extra for the size on arrival when checking in. It wasn’t clearly stated when booking so it was a surprise when we got there.

Local attractions

Golden Square Touring and Camping Park is above Ampleforth village which has two village pubs serving meals and snacks (and ales); several more pubs as well as restaurants and cafés are available in the market town of Helmsley, a few miles away. The 110-mile Cleveland Way starts in Helmsley, looping around the North York Moors National Park and ending at Filey via the North Yorkshire and Cleveland Heritage Coast. Endless other outdoor opportunities in the 554 square miles of the North York Moors National Park include pony trekking across the moors, rock climbing, and off-road driving… a mere few of the pursuits here to suit all tastes. If you prefer a more peaceful time, professional fly fishing tuition is to hand close to Golden Square and fishing lakes are at Castle Howard, Terrington and Hovingham; for golf, five courses are within 12 miles including Gilling Castle two miles away, Kirkbymoorside within six, Easingwood 10 miles away, and Malton and Thirsk within 12 miles.
