Westerly Lake Fishing and Caravan Park is a peaceful adult only touring park with coarse fishing lake, surrounded by beautiful grounds, teeming with wildlife, and sheltered by woodland. Walk to a great pub serving food, or buses run regularly from the village nearby to a designer outlet and the historic city of York.

About Westerly Lake Fishing and Caravan Park

The lake is a haven for wildlife and many visitors choose the caravan park to be close to the large variety of birds, many of which are very tame. Fishing here is regularly described as 'the best roach and bream fishing in Yorkshire', and there are also plenty of carp for those who want to target the larger species, but please note that braid is not allowed. The caravan park has spacious hardstanding pitches and electric hook-ups, good facilities, plus the most precious quality - peace and quiet!

Open from 1 March to 30 November
