From the manager: We shall look forward to greeting you again. We agree; we are ideally sited for a gentle stroll on the Lakeside, great walks in the Howardian Hills and further afield in the North York Moors.
A great place for a few nights, no issues really, would return.

Liked: Lovely campsite with beautiful landscape all around. Ended up visiting the castle and going to the Cushion and Crown for some Sunday dinner which had mixed feelings on the Mac and cheese. Would definitely come to the area again and maybe stay at the same site, toilets were clean and the block was warm all night. Had a little shop with most necessities including BBQs and beer! Most people were quiet around 10pm and had no complaints about anyone including staff. Honestly, for the price, this site was definitely worth it and we would come again.
Disliked: The loud birds kept us up for a bit haha

From the manager: A great detailed review Thomas. Thank you. We are pleased that you found everything to your liking and enjoyed some treats from our shop. We look forward to welcoming you again soon!

From the manager: hank you Philip. Our little shop has been a great hit since it was added last July. I'll pass your comment regarding a play park on site to the relevant team. I hope you managed to use your campers 2 for 1 offer to experience 'Skelf Island Adventure Playground' in the grounds of Castle Howard just across the lake.
Friendy welcome. Spacious pitches. Good facilities. Lovely setting.…
