  • 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: All pitches had electric and fresh water. Washroom facilities were clean. Site quiet and well situated on the outskirts of York with fenced off area to exercise dogs off lead on site. Great communication before arrival giving information about site and local area even before we had arrived. Walked to closest park and ride but was about 2 miles away along a busy road with just a grass verge and mostly no pavement. Drove to another park and ride (as recommended by hosts due to height restrictions at closest one) the next day for a visit into city centre.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Quiet and simple little campsite with everything that we needed. Only a 5 minute uber ride into York at 6/7£ or a bus stop not too far away 3 buses a day so was perfect for exploring

Disliked: Could have used a plug in the bathrooms to plug in a hairdryer but I managed without

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Was lovely and clean, staff was really friendly and informative on how to order food and to get into york

Disliked: Just a bad point for me, but many people will probably like it, just for me the site was very quiet, lots of spaces were taken just not a lively site, not alot going on, just people sat in motorhomes.

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.
