- Well-kept touring pitches on the edge of the North York Moors
- Pickering, Rievaulx Abbey and Castle Howard within 20 minutes' drive
- A mile from Kirkbymoorside and close to bus stops
Gateway to the Moors Caravan Park is, as its name suggests, just on the edge of the North York Moors National Park. This scenic hideaway is in the tiny village of Keldholme and surrounded by mature trees, with the River Dove on one side and a working farm on the other (and open countryside all around).
That means the views are about as rural as they come, and yet this site is surprisingly well connected: it’s easily accessed from the A170 and a mile from Kirkbymoorside, a market town with shops, pubs, takeaways and other amenities. There’s also an excellent bus service here (for outings around the Moors, to York or to the coast) and another bus stop in the village for jaunts to local towns.
The park’s hardstanding pitches are well kept, with views down the field to the river. They’re also supplied with electric hookups, and with water close to each pitch. The team here takes pride in its lawns too – the grass is cut regularly, and although barbecues are permitted you’re asked not to put them on the grass. Free firepits are provided for each pitch (or you can bring your own), and bags of wood can be purchased on site.
For extra safety, the site's entrance and exit are covered by security cameras. Free wifi is available around the entrance/exit area as well. There are eco-friendly touches around the place too: recycling is encouraged, and there are facilities for charging batteries and electric bikes on site.
This part of North Yorkshire is packed with things to do, and it’s a great area for walkers and cyclists too – handily, you can stroll straight out from the site through the woods to pick up local footpaths if you don’t fancy straying too far.
