喜欢 Great site, friendly staff, nice little pub, pizzas and bacon sarnies

不喜欢 A bit annoying having a shower in the dark after 5minutes, ok I like a long shower .
The resident guy in plot 21 is really annoying with his really loud face time phone calls which went on and on and on 🥴

喜欢 Clean site with spacious pitches and water tap on each of the touring pitches.
Excellent toilet and shower block with other facilities such as washing machine.
Nice bar on site and pizza van (although we didn't try the food).

不喜欢 The on-site bar closed early on Thursday night but we were told it would be open later at the weekend. Saturday night, despite plenty of customers and the sign with opening times stating closimg at 10.30pm, last orders were called at 9.30pm. When we asked why they were closing early, we were just told it's closing time. We referred them to the sign and simply got a shrug from the barmaid who pointed to the manager. The manager and barmaid were clearly more interested in flirting with each other. (The same manager was flirting with the (different) barmaid on Thursday too). Not to worry, we went back to the van and saved our money. Didn't go in the following night either. Shame as the owner has clearly invested a lot of money in this facility but obviously doesn't realise it's not being utilised to its full potential. Especially as there's nothing else nearby meaning they have a captive audience.

Whilst a lovely site, you need a car to get around. There are no walks nearby or any other facilities. It is next to a quite busy 60mph road (with no footpath), and the nearby rail line has a manually operated level crossing, meaning the frequent trains are required to sound their very loud horns from about 7.30am and throughout the day.

来自经理: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed several aspects of your visit to our site.

We would, however, like to clarify a few points raised in your feedback. Contrary to your comment, the bar does not close at 9:30pm. Last orders are called at 9:30pm, and the bar officially closes at 10pm. This arrangement is in place out of respect for our neighbouring landowners, specifically due to the racehorses located nearby, and is part of a long-standing gentleman’s agreement with both them and the parish council to support the smooth continuation of our planning permissions.

Regarding your mention of a “manager” being present, there was no manager on duty during your stay—only a member of staff. We also find your suggestion of unprofessional behaviour between staff members to be unfounded and inappropriate. Additionally, your assumption about the staff member’s personal preferences is baseless and unwelcome and could be classed as harmful to our member of staff !

You are correct in noting the significant investment we have made in the site, which is why we were surprised by your claim that there are no local walks. In fact, we have a detailed booklet in the bar listing over 30 walks in the area. Had you asked, our staff would have provided a leaflet or offered guidance.

With regard to the surrounding roads, while there is no designated footpath, like much of rural Britain, there is a 3-metre verge on either side deemed safe for walking. We acknowledge the lane has a speed limit of 60mph, though traffic is generally light.

As for train noise, it is minimal and limited to local services between York and Scarborough, which run infrequently and are rarely considered a disturbance.

It seems that our campsite may not be aligned with your expectations. We appreciate your feedback, but in light of your overall dissatisfaction, we kindly ask that you do not return in the future.

Kind regards,
Reverend and Dr Jonathan Charters-Reid
Campsite Owner and Director

喜欢 Really friendly site. Owner and staff made you feel very welcome. The toilet and shower block was excellent. Never crowded and very tidy. Hair dryers available as well, which was a bonus. Bar was great. Fair prices and lovely atmosphere. The whole site was clean and tidy. There's a dog wash facility and good washing up area for pots and pans. It's a lovely little campsite and it wasn't too noisy in the evening even though it is adults only.

不喜欢 I wish there was an option to have a non electric pitch away from others. We had to share an electric point with two other tents which made us very close in proximity as you were huddled around on four sides. Whilst this was okay, it wasn't ideal especially since I didn't really need the electric site at all. There's plenty of room (or was when we were there) for you to pitch further up the field away from other sites and be without electric. I would have been happy paying the same price without the electric. I'd still give it 10/10 though as it was a great place! Just something for the owners to consider.

喜欢 Brilliant place . We stayed a week in our caravan and didn't want to leave. Facilities are excellent and the bar is reasonably priced. It's the most we have used an onsite bar. Being adult only was an other bonus. Easy access to York via park and ride which is a ten minute drive away. Every staff member we met were excellent. Without hesitation we would return.

不喜欢 A little isolated. Would have been nice to walk into a village but this is only a minor dislike as we had a car so could tour about the area.

喜欢 Fabulous happy staff, lovely clean site, fantastic amount of wildlife, close enough to shops etc but perfect for a quiet get away. Lovely to have a manly adult site with a bar and food facilities to hand.

不喜欢 Nothing to do with the site but the drunk loud campers that came on the Friday night and chose to drink and be extremely foul mouthed then the lady urinate outside right near the toilets. Disgusting behaviour

来自经理: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We hope you enjoyed your stay with us. We have noted your comments and are sorry that your stay was disturbed by other guests, this is not the type of behaviour we tolerate on site. We do hope this hasn't put you off staying with us, and hope you will visit us again in the future.

喜欢 Great facilities; spacious, clean and warm. Really friendly staff, and a nice little campsite bar. There's a nature walk around the perimeter, and loads of wildlife to see. Any noise issues "after hours" were dealt with quickly and efficiently.
So good we extended our stay an extra night!

不喜欢 The wifi doesnt reach the tent field (and that's not noted in the description); its clear the owner has made massive investments in the site, so hopefully they will install some wifi extenders soon.

The next two are beyond the campsite's control (so I haven't marked down for this) but its worth flagging to make people aware:
- there is noise from passing cars (fast) and trains (blowing horns from 7:30am)
- its very close to a military training range, so there were guns shooting from 9-3:30 during the week.
It didn't spoil things for us, but we have a noise sensitive dog who was a little unsure.
