  • Peaceful rural site 20 minutes' drive from York
  • Half an hour's drive from North York Moors National Park
  • Easy access from A64 and close to bus stops for day trips
City break, rural rambles and seaside strolls all on your holiday game plan? Off to Yorkshire with you then, and a stay at Fox Hill Holiday Park, just outside the village of Claxton and within easy reach of all of the above, thanks to a rather handy location close to the A64. From here it’s a 20-minute drive south to the fab historic attractions of York, or around half an hour north to the North York Moors for hiking, biking, horse riding and steam train rides. Add in a day or two by the coast (an hour’s drive away) and refresh with a brew in one of the local tea rooms and you’ll start to have an idea why the locals fondly refer to their region as ‘God’s own county’. Fancy leaving the car behind for the day? There’s a bus stop very nearby for trips to York or to the market town of Malton, and a golf course within walking distance. The woods and fields all around are great places to stride forth too, for dogs (and humanfolk) in need of walkies. No lengthy list of entertainment facilities here to distract from the chilled-out country vibe (this place thrives on peaceful times, not parties), but the essential amenities are all here and well-maintained: a food shop and a smart modern toilet block with hot showers and accessible bathroom.

What customers say

A peaceful, spotless site with great staff. Spacious pitches, brilliant loos & showers. Dog field's a bonus. Wi-Fi's spotty in places & showers vary, but it's a grand base for York.

Jacqui T.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Peaceful site , good dog walking and a field where you can let them off the lead.

Disliked The rubbish bins where quite far away , but that's only a small issue , maybe one bin in the touring field might have been more useful.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Jacqui,

Thank you for your feedback and we are glad you enjoyed your stay with us.

We currently do not have any rubbish bins in the touring field as the bins become extremely heavy when full and so we would be unable to drag the bin back to the carpark area. The Bin lorry is also unable to fit down the lane to the camp field.

Lovely tranquil place to stay.

My wife ended up in hospital for 6 days during our stay (she is all good now) and Tony and Ebony could not have been anymore thoughtful and helpful.

Disliked None

Simon C.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Stayed on the weekend of storm Amy so there was only one other tent in the tent field. Nice tent field, pretty level, easy to knock pegs in. Toilet block was immaculate, with two shower cubicles, lovely warm showers too. There was a second toilet block further from the tent field, but didn't use it.
The owner kindly stayed on after the stated 5pm latest check in, to wait for us to arrive. Site had a little shop selling basic food stuff.
Owner also popped round to the tent in the pouring rain to let us know we didn't need to be away by the stated 10am time on Sunday, which was very kind.
Easy to drive into Malton or York, both of which are worth visiting.

Linda B.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked The field gives give plenty of space per pitch. Which also means that caravans or camper-vans/motorhomes are not too close together. Ground was level and ground was good. There are two water points spaced adequately so you don’t have too far to go. The toilet/ shower facilities are very very clean. Water was hot enough, previous reviews had complained about this. The dog field is plenty big enough to exercise your dog off lead. Good value for money considering electric is included and no extra charge for awnings.

Disliked There was nothing to dislike about this site.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for the lovely feedback Linda, we hope to see you again in the future!

The staff are on hand if needed but do not intrude on your privacy

Local attractions

A day trip to York is pretty much an essential – or, even better, several day trips. See the big sights (the minster, the timber-framed shops of the Shambles and the Jorvik Viking Centre), but also make time to visit the National Railway Museum, take a boat trip on the Ouse river and grab a cuppa and a fat rascal cake at the famed Betty’s tearoom. For a blast of sea air, head over to Bridlington, around an hour’s drive away, for a traditional British beach day out with promenade strolls, funfair rides and donkey rides – perhaps even a spot of paddling in the North Sea for the hardier types. Outdoorsy types should make a beeline for the North York Moors National Park, around half an hour away, for walking trails and traffic-free bike routes across one of the country’s largest expanses of heather moorland. Husky trekking, rafting and ziplining are among the other options for active souls; those who prefer a more leisurely pace may opt to see the landscape from the comfort of a heritage train ride.
