Overlooking fields

  • Peaceful site with stunning views of the Yorkshire Wolds
  • Half an hour's drive from York and 45 minutes from Bridlington
  • Well-stocked farm shop and café on site
In need of scenic hols, with a market town just down the road and hills and beaches within easy reach… and some excellent eats to hand right on site? Travel along to The Mile Caravan Park, less than five minutes’ drive from Pocklington in East Yorkshire – this is a splendid spot for all the above. These scenic surrounds are half an hour from York and within an hour of the seaside towns and beaches of Bridlington and Scarborough; closer to home, hiking and walking trails through the scenic Yorkshire Wolds can be joined within five minutes. A riding club is 10 minutes away if peaceful horseback ambles fit the mood, and there’s a gliding club in the village when nothing will do but seeing it all from the air. Be sure to make some time for a couple of lazy site days too, as you'll surely won't want to miss out on the farm shop and Smile Café… Can’t get enough of that food? Call into the farm shop to stock up on local artisan produce including beer, cider, jam, chutney, chocolate and cheese.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Nice quiet site and just a short stroll into Pocklington town. The showers are nice and clean, however the water was sort of pumping intermittingly, so it kept going hot and cold.

Disliked: Nothing

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: We liked the site and the cafe. It was within walking distance of the town and also you could walk to a golf course, where we were able to have a drink . The owners were very friendly and helped us enormously when we had a problem with our motorhome. We would certainly return.

Local attractions

If long-distance routes like the Way of the Roses, the Minster Way and the Yorkshire Wolds Way are a tad too tough, there are easier wanders closer to the site. Follow the footpath that passes the site as far as Pocklington Wood (a 20-minute walk or three-minute drive) for a circular route that’s well suited to walkers, or get behind the wheel for the 10-minute trip to Millington Woods and Millington Pastures. Further slow-paced activity can be found with a day’s fishing at Conifer Lake or Allerthorpe Lakes, while those in search of something a little more energetic can stick to Allerthorpe for canoeing, kayaking, swimming, sailing and paddleboarding, and some time splashing around the inflatables in the aquapark. History buffs might get their adrenaline in a different way… Trips to the Yorkshire Air Museum and Eden Camp give an insight into life during the world wars; after that, make a stop at the deserted medieval village of Wharram Percy. Craving an urban day? The museums, ghost tours, breweries and shops of York are half an hour away, and Hull’s aquarium, Old Town and Arctic Corsair museum are 40 minutes from base.
