  • Family-friendly caravan park in a rural spot just off the A64
  • A 10-minute drive from central York; park and ride close by
  • Peaceful eight-acre site with spacious serviced pitches
York, oh yes indeed – and as many times as you fancy popping in too… As the name suggests, Beechwood Caravan Park York is in a most handy spot for days out in this splendid city – it’s just off the A64 and about a 10-minute drive from the city centre (or a stress-free bus ride from the park and ride two miles away). Not that you’d guess either of those facts while staying at this peaceful rural North Yorkshire site: it’s a private and sheltered spot spread over eight acres surrounded by mature trees and hedgerows. There’s plenty of space on the pitches, all of which have electric hookups and access to a chemical disposal area and recycling facilities. Other facilities at this family-friendly touring site include a washing-up area and male, female and unisex/family bathrooms with toilets, basins and full-height showers with free hot water. (Please note the facilities are not heated) Visiting York several times is a fine idea, of course, allowing you to explore the city at your leisure rather than cramming it all in. This is, however, one of those particularly fine spots where you really can mix up a bit of city time, a bit of country time and a bit of coast time. Shake things up a bit by getting to the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in about 15 minutes’ drive, the North York Moors National Park in 40 minutes and the coast at Bridlington in an hour or so.

FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Well spaced pitches with plenty of room and not too close to your neighbours. Very peaceful Nice lady in the reception shed on arrival but only there when people were arriving.

Disliked: You do need some form of transport if wanting to go exploring as a bit isolated Didn't like the toilet/shower set up. Toilet/shower/basin all in one cubicle so if you just wanted to just use the toilet or sink & someone was using the showers the toilet was out of action for you. Some people would say use your own toilet but when you are paying for the facilities why not use them. My husband informed me there were no urinals in the men's block either. There were also no hairdryers in the shower block which I've never experienced before. The shower only stayed on for about 15 seconds at a time when pressed. When having a shower and washing long hair it's not ideal, it took so long to wash & rinse hair because of the shower going off so quickly that I was plunged into darkness as the lights are on a timer too! There were no shops, pubs etc within walking distance. There was a Toby carvery which you could walk to but it meant crossing a dual carriageway to get to it! One road in & out but quite narrow with a couple of blind bends, we luckily didn't meet anyone coming the other way. There is plenty of land so might be worth widening the roadway. Not sure I would stay again because of the location.

Liked: Clean and spacious pitches, grounds very well maintained, toilets all individual with own shower and sink. which was good, not far from York.

Disliked: Shower block not heated so very cold, lights on top of hook up constantly flickered all night, our phone signal was very poor while we were here, which isn’t the sites fault

FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Friendly Staff. Close to the park and ride for access to the city. Good cost.

Disliked: Toilet block was a little small but adequate for the number of people on the site when we stayed. If the site was full then it may have been more of an issue. Close to the main road A64 and A1237 so some road noise.

Local attractions

Naturally you’ll want to start with York, for history-tinged days at the Jorvik Viking Centre and the minster, strolls down the Shambles, (free) engine-gazing at the National Railway Museum, cruises on the Ouse and sweet tales at York’s Chocolate Story. And then? Maybe for more excellent architecture at Castle Howard (25 minutes’ drive) or Ripon cathedral (45 minutes), or a journey back to the past with a steam railway ride on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway (an hour)? Or perhaps turn eyes to the skies with a trip to the Yorkshire Air Museum (10 minutes)? If you’re of the opinion that no visit to the countryside is complete until you’ve brushed a pig or milked a cow, you can get such things sorted at Piglets Adventure Farm (10 minutes). Thirsk racecourse (40 minutes) is the place if you’d rather see the horses going full pelt, while Flamingo Land Resort (half an hour) should be on the list if you’d rather hurtle along rides or meet exotic beasts. Beach time? It’s around an hour’s drive to Bridlington for a classic British seaside day out – think funfairs, amusements, donkey rides and tasty portions of fish and chips.
