Adults-only, dog-friendly site 15 minutes’ drive from York
Clifton Moor shops five minutes’ drive; Castle Howard half an hour
Café on site for breakfasts, sandwiches and afternoon teas

Those who wish to experience the attractions of the city of York while also waking up to the sight of endless green fields and dense woodland should consider staying at Willow House Caravan Park. From this peaceful, adults-only site (over 18s only), it’s a 15-minute drive to reach York Minster – that’s pretty handy, right? Even handier, though, is letting someone else do the driving into the city: you can catch a bus at the end of the drive. What’s more, you’re only a five-minute drive from Clifton Moor Retail Park, with its supermarkets, stores and entertainment options for rainy days (a multiscreen cinema and ten-pin bowling among them). But what about the site itself? In addition to two wildlife ponds – where you can stroll along looking at the ducks as they swim in and out of the bullrushes – there’s a café serving huge cooked breakfasts, sandwiches and wraps, all made with locally sourced produce. Oh, and afternoon teas with home-made cakes and other sweet treats. There is also a gift shop in the café. Your four-legged companion is a welcome guest here, and you can take them (or yourselves) for a walk through Westfield Wood nearby. Back on site, you’ll be able to use the wet room and washing-up area, as well as extra facilities near the café, which include showers and toilets (including facilities for disabled guests) plus a laundry area.

Suzanne B. Apr 2024

Powered gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked: Showers were spotless, had a problem with the electric in the shower block on the first night but these things happen. Pitches were nice and level and electric and water easily accessible. It's not too far from a Park & Ride to get into York and there's a bus at the edge of the campsite if you don't mind being restricted by bus times.

Disliked: Didn't like not being allocated a pitch. We were in a VW T4 that we used for our trips round and about York and had a different pitch each of the 3 nights we stayed. Not a problem if you go with a caravan. The path to the nearby villages was a massive patch of mud (it has rained for ever) and the site is on a main road so you can't walk into York.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Clean facilities, quiet and close to facilities

Disliked: The ground was very wet and when we arrived they wasn't really sure where to put us, as they wasn't expecting any tents. I know the weather cannot be helped, however it was felt that we should have been told that the ground was not really suitable and ultimately this resulted in everyone in tents having to leave early. Lack of communication really, but a lovely sitr

Local attractions

Unmissable sights in York (15 minutes’ drive) include the medieval Minster, with its colourful stained-glass windows, and the JORVIK Viking Centre, where you can learn all about the early history of the city. Trainspotters make a beeline for the National Railway Museum York, where locomotives on display include a replica of Stephenson’s Rocket and the Art Deco-inspired Duchess of Hamilton. With a patchwork landscape of hills, arable fields and woodland, the Howardian Hills National Landscape (20 minutes) is a popular destination for hikers and cyclists. Wildlife enthusiasts can keep an eye out for roe deer, stoats and badgers, plus birds of prey. An 18th-century stately home, Castle Howard (half an hour) has elegant rooms adorned with paintings by Italian Old Masters and English artists like Sir Joshua Reynolds and Thomas Gainsborough. There’s also a pre-Raphaelite Chapel, decorated by William Morris, plus expansive parkland dotted with lakes and follies.
