Great site with a friendly atmosphere
Electric grass touring pitch
Liked Great owner. Lovely flat pitches. Well spaced out. Location to York and a lovely pub within walking distance for Sunday lunch.

Basic but there’s nothing wrong with it.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Easy to get to, and flat.
Near York centre so you can go out for the day.
Disliked There’s nothing wrong with the campsite but It’s near a busy road and you can hear the traffic which seems to be all night. It could do with a few more showers and toilets. Cold water at the washing up station only.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Greeted by owner upon arrival. Was able to choose own pitch. Pitches were flat. Hot Water for shower.
The owner was extremely helpful and found a rod, cut to size and also had some duct tape when a pole snapped when pitching for an emergency fix.
Few animals on farm, couple of pigs, geese, chickens.
Was close to park and ride, and a retail park 10 min drive.
Phone signal was good, could use data and make and recieve calls.
Camp was fairly quiet.
Disliked The site is very basic at the moment I assume they are trialling it out to potentially expand in the future? With this in mind there was there wasn't anything we disliked.
There's only 1 toilet and 1 shower but as we know this before we arrived (from other reviews, comments included owner owner looking to add more) this wasn't an issue.
The only thing that I would recommend is either paper towels in the toilet or a dryer. And some hot water for the washing up sink.

Great value. The facilities are basic but adequate and well priced
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Lovely basic site. Low stress. Few chickens are geese and a big pig to look at. Shower basic but hot and powerful. Well maintained and clean.
Disliked Some road noise through the night from nearby main road but this will likely decrease as sound barrier planting grows in and would be livable with for a few nights. Could benefit from a second toilet and shower perhaps. A few moths in the shower so maybe a moths zapper in the outer area. Doesn't bother me but it would scare my wife and daughter.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Absolutely perfect campsite. Nice flat ground, with no stones, perfect for pitching up. Owner greeted us at the gate, was very friendly, and answered all our questions, and told us some local places for food etc. Campsite is near to the road, but it's so quiet, and goes even quieter at night. The cockerel you can barely hear, and it's so lovely to have chickens, geese, and pigs on site, to visit while waiting for the shower/loo (there's only one of each, but the owner did mention he was planning on upgrading next year) the campsite is very spacious too, the pitches are nicely spaced out with plenty of room.
