  • 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.

Beechwood Caravan Park: peaceful, clean, spacious sites. Private showers/toilets a plus. Great for York park & ride. Friendly staff. Basic, unheated facilities noted. Recommended for return visits. Some road noise/signage issues.

Janet S.

Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

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

Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Being after school started we were the only family with a child (she's 3) so they quite kindly put us in the spot right next to the playground. Our daughter's first experience of caravaning and now the standard is set that a slide should be within stones throw! Showers and toilets were great. Warm, clean and plenty available.

Liked We liked the space we had around us!
The facilities were clean and tidy definitely no complaints there
A lovely welcome from Kate who explained everything to us as we'd not been to this site before. We'll definitely be returning!
We loved the pizza we got from Belly Busters who deliver free to your pitch!!! & the accessibility to the nearby attractions of York.

Liked Quiet and easy access to York by taxi. Electric hook up and water available.
Although close to the road the noise wasn’t intrusive.

Disliked Showers and toilet facilities a bit dated but clean.

Neal K.

Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Great location and facilities very clean. Well lit at night and welcoming staff.
Really easy to communicate with and will be revisiting later in the year.
Added security of barrier gate and late arrival point a positive feature.

Disliked Just be aware that there is no WiFi which wasn’t an issue for us. Enjoyed the peace.

Liked Everything! This site was so quiet and peaceful. Yes you can hear some noise from the main road but very minimal. We managed to find the site easily and found the facilities great! No wifi but good phone signal so not needed. Loads of space in between pitches. Nice long pitches. Two minute drive from a park and ride into York. Would definitely stay again

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.
