  • Family-friendly caravan park in a rural spot just off the A64
  • A 10-minute drive from central York; park and ride close by
  • Peaceful eight-acre site with spacious serviced pitches
York, oh yes indeed – and as many times as you fancy popping in too… As the name suggests, Beechwood Caravan Park York is in a most handy spot for days out in this splendid city – it’s just off the A64 and about a 10-minute drive from the city centre (or a stress-free bus ride from the park and ride two miles away). Not that you’d guess either of those facts while staying at this peaceful rural North Yorkshire site: it’s a private and sheltered spot spread over eight acres surrounded by mature trees and hedgerows. There’s plenty of space on the pitches, all of which have electric hookups, water hook-ups and access to a chemical disposal area. Other facilities at this family-friendly touring site include a washing-up area and male, female and unisex/family bathrooms with toilets, basins and full-height showers with free hot water. (Please note the facilities are not heated) Visiting York several times is a fine idea, of course, allowing you to explore the city at your leisure rather than cramming it all in. This is, however, one of those particularly fine spots where you really can mix up a bit of city time, a bit of country time and a bit of coast time. Shake things up a bit by getting to the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in about 15 minutes’ drive, the North York Moors National Park in 40 minutes and the coast at Bridlington in an hour or so.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Well kept campsite , great communication, lovely park for kids , fantastic facilities loved the privacy of the showers in toilets , nice big disabled shower/toilet as needed to use for my son and also take pram in with newborn so was ideal , perfect location for York centre and sites , very peaceful and quiet, felt very safe and secure for kids as traveling as a single parent with a special needs 9yr old and a newborn baby ,

Disliked Minor points, gateway could be wider for caravans , would maybe benefit from removable shower head in disabled shower as I got quiet wet helping my disabled son but wasn't a major problem and we managed quite fine luckily the weather was really hot so didn't mind :)

From the manager: Hi, thanks for the review. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your visit with us and we look forward to seeing you again sometime and will look into a removable shower head, thanks, Kate.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Lovely and clean
Would stay again

Disliked Sorry but people coming at 11pm with a caravan, woke me up driving forward and back words trying to get the caravan on, thought they were going to drive into the awning at 1 point, and people walking over your pitch to get to theirs , I know it's not the owner fault,

From the manager: Hi Lisa, thanks for the review. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your visit with us and we look forward to seeing you again sometime, apologies for the late arrival, not normally a problem but unfortunately car engine problems delayed them, I believe, thanks, Kate.

Local attractions

Naturally you’ll want to start with York, for history-tinged days at the Jorvik Viking Centre and the minster, strolls down the Shambles, (free) engine-gazing at the National Railway Museum, cruises on the Ouse and sweet tales at York’s Chocolate Story. And then? Maybe for more excellent architecture at Castle Howard (25 minutes’ drive) or Ripon cathedral (45 minutes), or a journey back to the past with a steam railway ride on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway (an hour)? Or perhaps turn eyes to the skies with a trip to the Yorkshire Air Museum (10 minutes)? If you’re of the opinion that no visit to the countryside is complete until you’ve brushed a pig or milked a cow, you can get such things sorted at Piglets Adventure Farm (10 minutes). Thirsk racecourse (40 minutes) is the place if you’d rather see the horses going full pelt, while Flamingo Land Resort (half an hour) should be on the list if you’d rather hurtle along rides or meet exotic beasts. Beach time? It’s around an hour’s drive to Bridlington for a classic British seaside day out – think funfairs, amusements, donkey rides and tasty portions of fish and chips.
