  • Well-maintained dog-friendly site in the North Yorkshire countryside
  • A 20-minute drive to the North York Moors; 50 minutes to the coast
  • Access to cycling and walking routes; pub and shops nearby
Pack your walking boots, gather your cycling gear and don’t forget your binoculars for the family-friendly Cherry Tree Park. Sitting cosily between the Howardian Hills and the North York Moors, this well-maintained family-friendly site is well based for walks and cycling through moors and forests or visits to historic halls and castles nearby… simply put, the hardest task will be plotting out your route, as this level-grounded base is a peaceful walker’s paradise. If you can’t bear to leave your dog behind, it's good to know that dogs and pets are welcome on site. For walkies time, take full advantage of the local footpaths – there are several cycling and walking routes nearby (along with more adventurous tracks between the trunks at Dalby Forest, 45 minutes’ drive). And handily, the coast is also within reach. So, if you have a taste for the pleasures of seaside (within 50 minutes’ drive), you can dedicate a day to the beach and harboursides. At the end of the day, freshen up using the toilet and shower block on site (there's an extra water point on hand if you need it). For eating out, there’s a fish and chip shop, an Indian restaurant and a pub within 10 minutes’ walk. And for anything else you need, the market towns of Helmsley and Kirkbymoorside have more amenities within five minutes’ drive.

What customers say

This is a well-maintained, clean, and spacious campsite with friendly, helpful owners. Visitors frequently praise the peaceful atmosphere, level pitches, and convenient location near local pubs and attractions like Helmsley. Facilities, including toilets and showers, are generally described as clean and adequate, although some mention they are basic. A few reviews note issues with noise from other campers or nearby kennels, and the pitches can be close together when busy. Overall, it's considered good value and many visitors express a desire to return.

Rachel S.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Tucked out of the way and not too far from Helmsley, you get the best of both worlds when staying at Cherry Tree Park. There's the relaxing on a spacious grass pitch and then just a stones throw away, there's the entertainment and wonder within a beautiful market town.

Cherry Tree Park proved to be an enjoyable stay. After being met by our wonderful host upon check in we quickly settled in and enjoyed the peace and quiet within our green surroundings. Amenities are fine, though you may have to wait your turn with the shower as there's only 2. After a kick about and a bit of lounging around we fancied a venture and there's the odd walking path nearby as well as a couple of pubs to whet your whistle.

Disliked Nothing to dislike.

Liked Very spacious pitches and ideal for where we wanted to go. Clean facilities.Nice pubs, takeaways and co-op not to far away..Bottom side has no lighting so did see shooting stars and meteorite shower.

Disliked I was expecting noise from farm animals etc around dawn but they seemed to be alot of barking and yapping dogs late and early hours in the area.

Electric grass pitch

Liked I've been here 3 time's in the last 6 weeks so i guess that means it's fine. Could do with another toilet/shower block if the site is busy, but it's been ok for me. Owners and staff are welcoming and friendly. Will be going again soon.

Disliked Nothing.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Had a lovely couple of nights at this campsite. The toilets were spotless and shower facilities were great- felt like home from home. Alicia was welcoming and very helpful. It wasn’t too busy on the non electric camping part of the field, so had a relaxing stay and was great for our dog! Had no issue with signal and my phone worked fine.There is a pub about a 10 min walk away, although food wasn’t the best. I will definitely be back as had a lovely stay at the campsite, with great facilities! Thanks for having us.

Local attractions

Revel in nature’s own adventure grounds at the North York Moors National Park (20 minutes' drive), where there are merlins and other moorland birds to be spotted as you traverse the trails across woodlands and moors. The Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (20 minutes) also has a splendid landscape with old mills and gorges. For a turn towards manmade wonders, there are hands-on tours and exhibitions at Helmsley Castle (10 minutes) and a very pleasant organic garden and scenic manor house at the National Trust site, Nunnington Hall (10 minutes). Elsewhere, Rievaulx Abbey (10 minutes) has both riveting ruins and a museum to explore. If you fancy an escape to the seashore, Whitby (50 minutes) and Scarborough (55 minutes) each have beaches for a bit of bucket-and-spade time, plus promenade strolls and boats for fishing or sailing. The Flamingo Land Resort (20 minutes) is another worthy stop on your way around… entertain your wild side at the zoo or on the theme park rides.
