A note from the site themselves...

Our site is family run, part of a former plant nursery which specialised in growing English indigenous trees. Some of the trees have been left to mature and now surround the holiday park giving a relaxed and peaceful atmosphere while providing a perfect home for some of Yorkshire's native wildlife. We hope to welcome you soon, Nicola

Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding PitchesOct 2024

Fabulous pretty, quiet site, good size pitches, with everything you need, good location with a bus stop to York just 15 minutes walk away. Great dog walk alongside the park and a good children's playing area. There was also a good pub, which was a mile away. Staff were great, friendly and very helpful. Will definitely return!

Great little site
