Fourways Campsite

9.7 20 reviews

Glamping in Yorkshire close to York and market towns Beverley
York half an hour's drive; Bridlington and the coast an hour away
Access to walks on Old Railway Path

Off the A613, halfway between the villages of Bubwith and Holme-on-Spalding-Moor (five minutes’ drive to either), Fourways Campsite is a peaceful glamping retreat in the splendid North Yorkshire countryside. It is also an adults-only site. Well… adults and dogs, that is, for your four-legged friend is more than welcome in these intimate, well-maintained surrounds. You can unwind on site watching the sun set over the hills; then, as the chill of those Yorkshire evenings starts to creep in, sit around the campfire. Or pull up a comfy chair and get spotting your favourite constellations in this area of minimal light pollution. Looking at the sky is all very well (and you might catch sight of a barn owl swooping down on its prey), but don’t forget to look around for more earth-bound creatures, too, including squirrels, rabbits and foxes. When it’s time for doggie walks, the local area has plenty of trails to explore, such as the Old Railway Path (less than four minutes’ walk away from the site). This is a bridleway that links Market Weighton to Bubwith, where it runs along the river Derwent. Keen anglers can check out Winfield Lakes (five minutes’ drive), where they may catch roach, bream or carp. There’s a communal fridge and ice-pack freezing facilities on site. If you prefer to leave cooking duties to someone else, there’s a restaurant less than two minutes’ walk away, with more options (traditional eateries, butchers, bakers, deli and takeaways) in Bubwith. A bus route runs along the A613.

Local attractions

A half-hour drive takes you into York, where you can easily while away an afternoon exploring the medieval York Minster, with its spectacular stained-glass windows, and walking atop the defensive city walls. York’s Chocolate Story appeals to those with a sweet tooth, who can make their own chocolate and (of course) taste, taste and taste some more. Occupying a former gravel quarry, North Cave Wetlands (20 minutes) is populated by seasonal birdlife such as avocets and oystercatchers in spring, common terns in summer (along with large numbers of dragonflies) and winter waders. A looping trail and grass and stone paths make it easy to reach the hides scattered around the reserve. With its long sandy beach, Bridlington (one hour) is a popular destination for watersports enthusiasts. Fishing trips depart from the harbour dotted with colourful boats, and you can also go on a pleasure cruise (exploring the coast around Flamborough Head and beyond) on the Yorkshire Belle.

Paula B. Sep 2023

Power optional grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Lovely quiet camping & caravanning club site. Approximately 10 pitches evenly spaced round the edges of a square field. Piches are level with plenty of space between them. Basic but adequate shower facilities and washing up area. Site owners very friendly and helpful and are on hand if you need any help or advice.
Pub with an ndian restaurant attached within 2mins walk of the site.

Disliked: You definitely need a car as the public transport service is lacking and there's not much more than a pub in the village.

Cabin

Liked: Absolutely loved this weekend at Fourways. It is such a lovely peaceful location with walks around on the Old Railway Path. Ideal for dog walking. We stayed in the Glamping Cabin which is so clean and cosy. Kettle, microwave, heater and TV provided. Sofa bed in there but we took our Yawn Inflatable bed. Clean toliet blocks. Fridge to share with the other cabin which is just so convenient for food storage. Hosts are so pleasant and really care about your stay. Love this place. Adults only. No Wi-fi required (4g on phone).

Disliked: Nothing - exceptional site.
