Lovely place. Nothing on site, just a shower block and toilets so car needed. The castle is 2 min drive up the road and it has a café for sandwiches and drinks and a local farm shop. You don't need entry to the castle facilities as these are open for all to use before entry (they sell bread, wine cheese and even a butcher for your food and drink supplies). They even have a restaurant, which would have been handy to know as we only found out the day before we left. Although it's a little expensive, Malton is your place to drive to for shops and a garage if needed about 15 min. Great location to drive to flamingo land like we did for the day. Reception kindly charged our battery packs for us as well. Overall, a perfect place for campers wanting peace and quiet and a lovely location.

We booked this campsite for 2 nights as we were visiting Flamingo Land on the sat, it was a great location! 20 min drive to Flamingo Land. The campsite was very nice, reception booked us in and told us where our pitch was and everything about it was spotless! The toilets and showers were always clean and tidy, also had a utility room with a washer dryer and freezer. Would definitely recommend and would visit again.
Great views!

A fabulous week's break & would go again. Perhaps could do with more sinks for washing up, but otherwise amazing.
Pleasant site

Good location and a pleasant site, but we felt it was set up for motorhomes/camper vans, with tents as 'a side line'. The toilet block was thoroughly cleaned once a day, but we felt it needed a second clean at a weekend when the site was busier. The water in the showers was never particularly hot, but were adequate. Only two washing-up spaces at a time as the basins were in a cramped room. Other than checking in, we never saw a member of staff!
Excellent spot for camping

A great getaway spot with a short walk out of the grounds you have a great view of Castle Howard. The facilities are very well maintained. Very busy location though meaning noise through the night and the morning for any one of various reasons. When staying in a tent obviously noise can be a bit of an annoyance. If the grounds could lower their allowed number of pitches, that would be excellent.
Pleasant stay

Clean and quiet site. Friendly and helpful staff. Would benefit from a play park for children, but ideal as a base to go and explore the surrounding area.
Nice little campsite

The campsite was easy to find, welcoming at reception and well laid out and tended to. The toilet and shower facilities are very clean and have a modern fit out. There is a lovely walk around part of the lake and lots of birds to spot. You will get a early wake up call from them too so take earplugs if you don't want to wake up at 4/5am!
Great

Lovely site, well maintained and in an ideal location. Only gripe was the tents weren't pitched so people really got a bit on top of you and were close. Some people were also being loud at 1am singing loudly, but everyone's allowed to have fun. Facilities were excellent but quite a walk away from the tent site.

Peaceful park, but not much to do unless you have a car as nothing nearby.
Bit of a disappointment

Basic facilities and no shop on site. Toilet block was ok but small and showers need bigger hooks for clothes otherwise they fall on the floor and get wet. The baskets are also too high. There aren't enough cafes or a pub, considering there are no facilities on site.
Great site

Relaxing, peaceful site with great views around the lake. Easy access to the coast, Castle Howard, Malton and York. We will definitely return.

This site is definitely worth visiting, it sits next to Castle Howard with views of beautiful green fields. The facilities are excellent very clean and the hairdryers in the showers are brilliant. Lovely customer service, very helpful. The edition of washing facilities are very handy and reasonable too. Ideally situated for York and the surrounding areas!! We will definitely be back.
Amazing stay

Our first outing in a new campervan. From arriving to leaving we found the site calm, quiet, and reception staff welcoming and very supportive. The view of the castle and lake is truly amazing. Highly recommended for a couple of days or a stop over.

The bathroom and washing up areas were kept very clean while we were staying and there was the option of a washer and drier if needed (for a few quid per load). We stayed in the non electric camping field, which was very spacious and right next to the lake. The campsite was easy to find and we had a view of Castle Howard from where we pitched up. York was an easy 30 min drive away and Castle Howard was barely a 25 minute leisurely walk up the road. We were welcomed and given plenty of guidance on where things were in the campsite and how to get to the field we needed, with plenty of drinking water taps located around the site! There is a long road next to the camping field, but I wouldn't describe it as noisy as there was only the occasional car going past and you could barely hear them! Would definitely visit this site again!

Excellent site. Lovely location and views of the lake. A little muddy in places but we did have hell of a downpour through the night. Apart from that, would highly recommend this site. Will be back 👍

Nice clean facilities, easy to find and nice and quiet. Highly recommended this one. Only thing to bear in mind - there are no restaurants/pubs on site or nearby. Not a problem for me as I brought everything with me.

Toilet sanitary bins were full and smelly and were not emptied whilst we were there for our 3 night stay. Also, the showers could do with a good clean
