  • 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.

What customers say

Beechwood Caravan Park: serene & spotless, with ample, level pitches (many serviced). Private shower/toilet cubicles a treat. Handily located for York park & ride. Staff are super friendly & helpful. Facilities are basic, but most folks love it here, plan to return & recommend. Some road noise & entrance signs could be better.

Martin W.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked The site was in a nice secluded area with decent sized pitches and facilities of a good standard.
Welcomed on arrival and shown pitch etc.

Disliked The dog walk field had parts of the fence missing which meant we could not let our dog off the lead to run.

Not the campsites fault but some young people in motorhome playing extremely loud music at 3.30am in the morning! Guess that’s the thing with unmanned sites.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Martin, thanks for the review. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your visit with us and we look forward to seeing you again sometime. Sorry to hear about the noise disturbance, not something that happens very often at all so sorry that you were disturbed by it, we do ask everyone to be considerate to others but I guess there are always going to be the minority that spoil things for others

A great site for visiting York and the surrounding area.

John B.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Nicely laid out site, with fairly level pitches- no ramps needed on our one. Significantly cheaper than two other sites nearby. Felt safe and secure.
Nice setting, and the owner was very friendly and welcoming on arrival.
Toilet facilities were all clean and regularly serviced. They were in individual bathrooms with sink and shower - 3 for men and 4 for ladies, which doesn’t sound like many, but we never had to queue. They might benefit from a refresh, but were perfectly adequate and clean.
The washing up sinks had a view of the site rather than staring at a wall, which was surprisingly pleasant. Laundry facilities were coin operated and very reasonably priced.
We cycled into the city centre, which only took 15-20 mins. Big shopping centre close by, so easy for topping up supplies.
Some have mentioned traffic noise - this was only noticeable during the day but wasn’t intrusive, and more importantly it was non existent at night.

Disliked None

Janet S.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Nice quiet site and not too far from York.
Toilet/shower fascinate ok

Disliked Person running not the friendliest, very rude when going to use toilets and they are cleaning.
Should not advertise you can have awning when the gravel is not big enough for van and awning yet you are told you can’t use the grass
Has been a fab site at one time but not putting any money back into it, pitches are full of weed

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Janet, thanks for the review. Sorry to hear that you won't be visiting us again and are unhappy re the awning situation, we do advertise that the awnings should be on the hardstanding and not the grass so apologies that you were not aware of this.
Very surprised to see your comment re not being the friendliest as normally we get comments as to how friendly we are but can only apologise this was not the case and made you think otherwise.

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.
