  • Peaceful dog-friendly site surrounded by the Yorkshire countryside
  • A 20-minute drive to York, the Yorkshire Wolds Way and Castle Howard
  • Walk to the Northwood Trail, a café and restaurant; farm shop nearby
A chilled drink in hand, the Yorkshire Wolds on the horizon and a belly full of fresh farm food grilled on your barbecue… that’s one way to spend an afternoon at Beech Farm. Other ways include hiking out into the Yorkshire Wolds (the site is around 20 minutes’ drive from the Yorkshire Wolds Way for long-distance hikes) or setting about exploring the immediate countryside. A 20-minute drive from York, this is a peaceful escape for any city dwellers… or indeed, a wise spot for those looking to check out its chocolate-making history, historic minster and Shambles shopping street from a base that’s in the countryside. The gorgeous site is half a mile back from a main road and has views across the fields, woods and the distant Yorkshire Wolds. The site is simply an attractive field with a rustic toilet, shower and washing-up block, so it’s just the place for those seeking a back to basics break and lots of peace and quiet. Handily, dogs are very much welcome too. Yorkshire strolls might be next up. If so, the three-mile Northwood Trail is just 15 minutes’ walk from the site too. On the trail, there’s a restaurant, café and a simple playground. If you’re after more tasty things to eat (or to take back for a barbecue), there’s a farm shop and café five minutes’ drive away (or a 45-minute walk away), as well as a cluster of pubs in Stamford Bridge (five minutes’ drive or 45 minutes’ walk).

What customers say

This peaceful, well-kept farm campsite offers great views. Guests love the quiet, flat sites, clean hot showers, and handy extras. Kids enjoy the animals. Some note the basic toilets could use more cleaning during busy times. A few had minor issues with access/signage.

Liked Clean basic facilities.
Excellent board in the village describing battle of Stamford Bridge in 1066.

Disliked Over priced. Very poor local footpaths. Not the campsite's issue but location versus price is wrong.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked The campsite was situated on a farm and was surrounded by open fields. There was plenty of lovely walk around. The location was near the lovely village of Stamford Bridge which has shops and pubs.

Disliked We payed 40 for two nights. The facilities were very basic, two toilets and two showers in basic wooden structures which had gaps in-the doors so you could see in. The showers however were lovely and hot. Also it advertised chemical toilet disposal point but there wasn’t one.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Such a lovely campsite, was super quiet and had plently of space for two children and a dog. Would definetly visit again! plent of space to pitch up the tent and to have the car parked where we wanted it.

Disliked The only things we would say we disliked was the showers flooded when used and the lack of toilet roll. Other than that the campsite was amazing

Local attractions

Soaking up some of Yorkshire’s history should be no hard feat around here. Start with the rural side of Yorkshire at Murton Park (10 minutes’ drive), which is a farming museum with 14 acres of playgrounds, animals and historic areas all about Yorkshire farms in the present and past. Castle Howard (20 minutes) is a similar spot with a historic house and estate, playground and walks where the fashionable Howard family have strolled for 300 years or so. Keep up your history-themed tour with a visit to the National Railway Museum York (half an hour) or welcome a bit of wildlife art into your itinerary with a look around the Robert Fuller Gallery Ltd (20 minutes) – and see what inspiration strikes for when you’re relaxing around the green spaces at Beech Farm. Any folk who have come prepared with all their hiking gear and who are itching to get going will get in a good, long hike around the Yorkshire Wolds Way (around 20 minutes), a Wolds trail totalling 79 miles. Failing that, the Howardian Hills National Landscape (25 minutes) has a gorgeous set of trails.
