Flaxton Meadows

Liked: Cannot express enough how lovely of a site this is. It has clean toilets and showers (and heated), its clearly all well looked after by the super friendly staff. The bar was really nice and also super cheap, we enjoyed spending our evenings there and doing the Saturday quiz also (although we were terrible!). The pizza van was a nice addition, its great you can get food onsite if you are feeling lazy; we enjoyed the pizza but the chips were very underdone sadly. Happy its adults only, made it all feel a lot more relaxed and peaceful.

We are a fairly young couple (early-mid 20s), and often we get a lot of looks or are not welcomed into sites by older people. We did not feel this here at all despite being some of the youngest customers onsite, and the staff were very helpful.

There is a small nature walk onsite but we did not get around to doing this. 20 mins drive to York and around an hour to Hull so great location, some of the nearby towns and villages looked nice when we drove through.

Will be coming again, already looking to come next month!

Disliked: Only some minor complaints; the wifi was not the best as it did not reach to the tent pitches (and there was no service). It would be great if it could be extended out to reach the tents.

The main negative would be the signage (that was in your face everywhere, for example on every toilet door) was very old fashioned and a little passive-aggressive regarding the "problems of a cashless society", which for people our age was surreal to look at. Was kind of off-putting, and in honesty, we don't go on holiday to be flooded with strange semi-political agendas. Say you prefer cash, fine, but the signs were a bit far in how they said it. I think this was the only thing that we thought was distasteful and made us turn our noses to the site slightly.

There is an army shooting range you can hear from the site, did not bother us but if you have a dog that gets scared easily you might want to reconsider. Not super loud though and fine enough.

Liked: Flaxton Meadows is one of the best sites we’ve visited. An amazingly warm welcome from Martin who couldn’t do enough to ensure our stay was the best it could be. Being adult only meant the site was peaceful. The electric hard-standing pitches are huge, well-spaced and level. The bar is great with very reasonably priced drinks and the pizza wagon is a fantastic addition. The pizza, garlic bread and fries we had were delicious. The washroom facilities were stunning. Designed in a Flaxton Boulevard fashion, with music; they were super clean and had everything you needed. Pot wash and clothes washing facilities also spot on. A lovely nature walk around the site is nice touch. We found the mini electric lawn mower-bots quirky; they also contributed to the calm atmosphere - no mower noise you can get at grassy sites. Can’t wait to return!

Disliked: Would be good if there were gluten-free options at the pizza wagon.
We couldn’t work the dog wash.
