  • Friendly site between the North Yorkshire Moors and Howardian Hills
  • A 10-minute drive from Helmsley and 25 minutes from Malton
  • Small shop on site and a pub 20 minutes’ walk away; dog-friendly
Moors, hills or market towns? Nab yourself a spot within reach of all three at Wombleton Caravan Park, which is in a little nook of Ryedale between the North Yorkshire Moors and the Howardian Hills, 50 minutes’ drive away from the east coast. This is a very friendly place, personally run by the Willoughby family. Those merry vibes are continued over in the local pub, which is 20 minutes’ walk away, and serves wholesome and unpretentious pub food, wines, spirits, soft drinks, tea and coffee. Of course, it has some splendid Yorkshire ales too (of the likes of Black Sheep, Theakstons and John Smiths). The small site has generously-sized pitches, all with electric hook-up. Facilities are splendid too. There are wifi and recycling facilities. Make use of the ladies and gents toilets, which has two individual private cubicles (with their own hand basins), as well as an indoor washing-up room with hot water, power showers, hairdryers, a shaver and powerpoints for your own appliances. There’s also a modern, clean toilet block with an accessible family toilet. The small shop on site stocks all your general groceries, along with a few caravan accessories, gas and charcoal for the barbecues. Next door is a small lending library with informational brochures (open day and night, so no matter if you’re a morning person or night owl). Wombleton Village is well-situated just a few miles from a few gorgeous North Yorkshire market towns. So, flock to the weekly outdoor markets in Helmsley (10 minutes’ drive), between the valleys of Bilsdale and Ryedale. Thirsk (half an hour) and Kirkbymoorside (10 minutes) also have regular markets; Kirkbymoorside’s market is every Wednesday, with craft stalls, bread stalls and cheese, meat and fish vans, among other things.

James M.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked Wow, I'm not quite sure where to start here, I had read the reviews and was extremely impressed. I expected it to be a great camping 2-day trip, but my expectations were exceeded across every single level.

Adam and James are superb hosts, very friendly, informative and genuinely passionate about your experience at their immaculate site.

Superb toilet and shower facilities, incredibly kept site, amazing fishing and very welcoming smile and on-site shop. Although late on the season, they had everything we'd forgot to bring, and required.

Wombleton Caravan Park will be our go-to site, as the 1hour 40 minute travel time from Newcastle was worth every minute.

Everyone on the site as well as our hosts were so welcoming, friendly and accommodating. Most of whom have been regulars and caravan pitch residents for many, many years. That says it all.

10 out of 10 doesn't quite seem enough. Seriously.

We can't wait to return, again, again and again.. You get my drift. One for life.

Disliked Nothing.

Powered concrete slab motorhome site

Liked Very peaceful and relaxing, well thought out pitches and well cared for site by welcoming and friendly owners. Has all the facilities that you could possibly need and good offsite dog walking area next to an old WW2 Canadian airfield which small hobby aircraft still use.

Disliked Not the sites fault but the nearest pub is not open on a Monday or Tuesday.

Powered concrete slab motorhome site

Liked The welcome, the friendly atmosphere, the effort that was put in to accommodating our two family group with children with additional needs. I liked the area for dog walking, and we spent hours walking and exploring there, picking fruit and looking at curiosities. I had lots of space to go for a good run in the morning, and we saw a kingfisher and lots of fish in the pond. We enjoyed watching the planes taking off and landing too. I would definitely recommend this site.

Local attractions

Take yourself to a historical site: Duncombe Park (15 minutes’ drive) is known as one of Yorkshire’s finest and in Helmsley (10 minutes), there’s a walled garden and the 900-year-old Helmsley Castle. Rievaulx Abbey (15 minutes) is a stunning ruin and museum, and the scenery is just as stunning, in a valley in the North York Moors. Where else might you flock to for stunning scenery? Yorkshire Lavender (20 minutes) is a clear contender, with a 60-acre lavender farm set across the Yorkshire hills. The North Yorkshire Moors Railway (20 minutes) steam train will also send you through the North York Moors scenery at a pace. However, those historic sites are not yet over; this is Yorkshire, after all. Castle Howard (20 minutes) is a grand 18th-century home just 15 miles from historic York (45 minutes).
