  • Dog-friendly holiday park in the North Yorkshire countryside
  • A 20-minute drive to Aldborough Roman Site; 40 minutes from York
  • Indoor and outdoor swimming pool, games room and playground on site
A getaway in the North Yorkshire countryside with an indoor swimming pool and outdoor swimming pool and miles of farmlands on all sides – that’s likely to be a big hit with families, dogs and all folk who appreciate scenic hikes and laidback pool days. Luckily, that’s the specialty at White Rose Leisure Park. A 40-minute drive from the historic city of York and 50 minutes from the Yorkshire Dales National Park, there’s scope for strolls down the Shambles and walking the city walls, as well as hikes in North Yorkshire’s big backyard. Just don’t forget that the surrounding countryside is a playground of its own, with plenty more rural trails. The adventure playground and football pitch at White Rose Leisure Park are likely to be a big hit with any kids (and adult guests wanting some quiet time while the kids do what kids do, of course). There’s a games room with arcade games and a pool table on site too. Along with the two swimming pools, everything is well cared for. When you’re ready to venture out, there’s a pub just two minutes’ walk from the doorstep. Further out, your activities might include visits to historic Roman ruins and or tackling the 109-mile Cleveland Way.

Local attractions

Helmsley Walled Garden (25 minutes’ drive) has been around since 1758 and it’s still just as peaceful as it was in the old days, with apple orchards and wildflower meadows below the castle ruins. Aldborough Roman Site (20 minutes) is another historic spot. Back in Roman times, the site belonged to the largest tribe in Britain. Now, there are Roman mosaics, ruins of the town wall and archaeological features for modern-day visitors to ogle over. In York, The National Railway Museum (half an hour) zooms in on the history of the British rail system instead. Get behind the (go-kart’s) steering wheel at York MotorSports Village (35 minutes). If that’s not wild enough of a ride for you, Lightwater Valley Family Adventure Park (25 minutes) and Flamingo Land Resort (45 minutes) have theme park rides too. Take your time in Thirsk (15 minutes)… there, The World of James Herriot has transformed the vet and author’s house into a museum of his life. The market town also has the Thirsk Birds Of Prey Centre (20 minutes), which runs impressive flying experiences.
