What customers say
Great farm stay with a chill vibe & spacious sites. Friendly staff, handy for York. A few grumbles about loos during peak times & a rough entry road, but mostly top notch.

Liked Very nice, we stayed in a very quiet field.
Disliked We stayed for a weekend and nobody cleaned the toilets. We paid just short of £60. We didn’t need EHU. So it’s not the cheapest. For that price I would like to be able to use the toilets. The were quite bad 🤢 The road up to the site is unmade and very pot holey

Liked The sunrise in the morning was really nice. The pitch itself was ok.
The toilets near the main entrance were clean and the shower was hot.
Disliked We arrived in the afternoon to a reception of no one. Although after being pointed to a sign by another camper that explained that you basically camp anywhere. We were still unsure of where to camp. We just parked up near another van in the hope that it was in the right place.

Liked Me and my partner arrived here yesterday to be pleasantly surprised the the welcome we received from such lovely kind helpful people the ran the ski club. Carl, Jason and Jeanette could not have been more helpful and polite . They even pulled all the stops out and took us on a boat ride. What an amazing experience. Also introduced us to all the local sites that we would have never found
Highly recommend and these guys are that great me and the wife have already started boat shopping. 😋 Ready to return in few weeks
See you guys soon .
And thankyou once again

Give it a miss!
Powered grass site
Liked We liked the open space. The lady in the bar who chatted to us that was working in there.
Disliked The price! £35 a night, for what? Yes we had EHU but the site had no other amenities apart from a rough shower/toilet block & a wooden club house, that wouldn’t be out of place at ‘Eden Camp’ with zero atmosphere. In high season, yes we are happy to pay that, but when we arrived we had no one to greet us & had to figure out where to pitch up. Anyone could turn up & hook up! Reception was shut the whole time we were there, not a soul on site. And to top it off while taking our dogs for a walk along the dirt track, we were spoken to by a women in a white car in an extremely rude manner. She was so angry telling us that she owned the road, along with her son, which lead to the campsite. It was the only road in & out. She took great offence that our dog was off lead. There was literally no one around, so they wasn’t bothering anyone, & well behaved. After a few words we walked on (dogs back on lead) to which she came back in her car to have another go! Was absolutely disgusting the way she spoke to us. Totally rude. After note, there is nothing around. If you want any civilisation be prepared to walk miles!

Liked Booked a 3 night stay & did an extra night not wanting to leave. A lovely farm site. Very peaceful with large, tidy fields & clean amenities. Bangin' shower. Great night in the bar with Jeanette & Jason. Lovely 20 minute drive into York. Wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Liked We stayed with our caravan for the weekend and we will definitely come back. It’s a lovely quiet site, the toilets and showers was clean. The ski club was so friendly and welcoming. They let us take take rides on their boats which my little girl absolutely loved. They was also friendly when we went to the bar the ski club took time to come speak to us and make us feel so welcome. It’s because of the ski club that we will be back as we thoroughly enjoyed our selves

Brilliant and clean site with a little bar and friendly staff.

Liked Lovely little find. Nice and relaxed on the side of a river. We only stayed for 1 night but would love to go back and explore more nearby. The onsite bar was a great addition which was very warm and welcoming by the lady behind the bar and even went out of her way to sort a bowl of water out for our dogs.
Disliked The road up to the site is a little run down and bumper but fine if you take care.

Liked Obwohl nur noch vier Bitches frei waren, hätten sicherlich noch 20 Autos Platz gehabt hätten.
Disliked Der erste Eindruck, insbesondere im Bereich der Müllentsorgung mit verfallenen Gebäuden hat es nicht gefallen. Sehr negativ. Erbitten wir, dass wir beim Online buchen als deutsche eine Adresse aus England angeben müssen. Die Kreditkarte müsste doch ausreichen, ebenso sehr negativ ist, dass Pitch up nur noch vier freie Plätze angegeben hat, obwohl auf dem Platz noch 20 Autos hätten stehen können. Das hatten wir bei mehreren Buchungen bereits erlebt, es gab, obwohl in Pitch up.com die Plätze ausgebucht waren, noch freie Plätze vorhanden waren. Das verursacht unnötig Stress
