What customers say
Peaceful countryside escape. Rocky, the site manager, is praised for being friendly & helpful. Flexible arrival/departure, dog-friendly. Facilities are clean but a bit dated. Good base for York.

Great weekend , would recommend, lovely surroundings
FHU grass and gravel campsite
Liked Great bank holiday weekend, very relaxed met some great people to chat to, rocky was a star, never stopped all weekend, could do enough for you, great lad, electrics all worked as they should , some sites tend to cut out when you have a lot on, site was very quiet after hours, we will return and would recommend
Disliked A little dated toilet block but still very clean and maintained throughout our stay, I would recommend decent ground pegs as the ground can be hard in places

FHU grass and gravel campsite
Liked Rocky was amazing and so helpful. Even though we stayed over a bank holiday weekend it wasn’t loud on a night time, I’d say music was off between 9:30 and 10pm. Very laid back place and very dog friendly. Season pitch holders were all friendly and never any bother. A 20 minute drive to get into York and there’s a huge tesco extra 24 minute drive away. Definitely will be back😊😊
Disliked Toilets/showers werent the best but were clean and always stocked with loo roll and hand wash etc.

FHU grass and gravel campsite
Liked I was worried about booking at this site as I had read the bad reviews, but upon arrival and staying at the site I don’t know what all the other reviews are on about we did not experience any of the issues that people had mentioned. Rocky was so welcoming and nothing was to much trouble for him, we had a lovely couple of nights on this site and would definitely be returning this campsite its a little Gem and Rocky is a major asset to this site well done your doing an amazing job. Thank you once again 👏

Friendly owner, clean facilities, very relaxed vibe.
FHU grass and gravel campsite
Liked Had a great weekend! The owner was super friendly and helpful, which really made the stay enjoyable. While the facilities were a bit outdated, everything was clean and well-maintained, so no complaints there. The vibe was very laid-back, and no one seemed bothered by a bit of noise. Adults stayed up late chatting, and the kids had a blast playing games and running around the tents well into the night. Perfect spot if you're looking for a fun and easygoing atmosphere. It’s perfect for a good weekend getaway.
Disliked One tip: the ground was quite firm, so getting the pegs in was a bit tough—I'd recommend using metal pegs and bring a decent hammer.

FHU grass and gravel campsite
Liked Rocky, the guy over seeing the site, was very welcoming. We love a laid back site where pitches aren't lined up and not much room to swing a cat. Plenty or grassy areas for us to play our games. Other campers were lovely and joined in our games. Facilities were clean and everything functioned as it should. Brilliant footpath for walking dogs. Kids enjoyed the park. Only thing I'd suggest is a swing for toddlers.
We will be back.

FHU grass and gravel campsite
Liked Very convenient location for York we used the park and ride at Grimston Bar, North Yorkshire Moors Railway and multiple National Trust locations such as Beningbrough Hall, Treasurers House, Goddards.
Facilities were decent although we use our own primarily.
Although opposite the entrance our pitch was quiet and we were undisturbed, we had our hookup and were lucky to have our own water supply on this pitch too.
Rocky was very attentive and looked after us during our stay.
Disliked Smaller pitch sizes, Rocky struggled to fit everyone in, the site was extremely busy (noted it was August Bank Holiday).
