This place was absolutely fantastic. It was beautiful scenery, peace and quiet from the main gaggle of loud holiday goers with a quaint little wood that offers plenty of area to find all sorts of wildlife, from baby frogs, giant hares and even deer if you're lucky. Having a fire pit with plenty of wood pile extras was definitely a good shout and it was surprisingly easy to cook on. The cabin itself felt like it was brand new with how spotless everything was when we first stepped in. It was of perfect size for the both of us with enough room to cook, clean and keep tidy quite easily. Added bonus was meeting all the different dogs walking past your cabin at night. We will definitely be coming back again. I could imagine this place looking even more magical in the winter time.

The site was very relaxing and peaceful, close to nature but with everything we needed in the pod close at hand. We had day trips to Scarborough, York and Allerthorpe Lake and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful site. Pods are situated around a peaceful lake with plenty of wildlife. Very clean and had everything we needed. Clear instructions were given before arrival. Fire pit & bbq was great. The shed on site had wood bundles for sale with an honesty box located inside so cash is needed. 25 minute drive to York. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely couple of night away with our dog. The site is very scenic and full of wild life. The log fire is an added bonus. Ideal for quiet break away. Highly recommended.

This has been an amazing stay in a really good location. The pods look out onto the lake which is the perfect view to wake up to. Very clean and quiet place.

What a lovely little hidden gem this place is, we enjoyed a lovely relaxing 2 night stay here for my wife's birthday. The pod was exceptionally clean and just the right size for my wife and I and our cocker spaniel, we will definitely be returning.

Stayed here for 3 nights. What a beautiful and peaceful place, if you want to get away for relaxation and off the beaten track, I would recommend this place. The pod we stayed in was perfect, comfortable, immaculately clean and had everything you need for a break away from home. It is great for exploring the area and York. We will return.

We had a wonderful 2 night stay at Ball Hall Farm as a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids aged 6 and 3). We were in the Willow Pod; it was clean, cosy, compact and had everything we needed. We loved the stunning surroundings - looking out to the lake from out pod decking we could see ducks and birds and the lake itself was very calm and serene. The kids enjoyed roasting marshmallows on the fire pit by our pod and we had an amazing view of the stars at night - we were fortunate to have clear skies. We came on a quiet weekend in October so our neighbouring pods were unoccupied however even if the other pods had been occupied they are nicely spaced out and private so there would have been no worries there. We had a lovely walk in the on-site woodland and had fun venturing out to the local area - we enjoyed the Yorkshire Air Museum and walks in Allerthorpe and along the canal in Melbourne. We had a delicious meal in the St Vincent Arms and found the staff very welcoming. This was our first ‘go’ at glamping and our wonderful experience at Ball Hall Farm has really whet our appetite!

If you just want to escape from all the noise and catch your breath for a couple of days, this is the place for you! It's a self-check-in place, with no human contact at all! Aghhh an introvert's dream! It really is! And Wi-Fi works really well if you need it. But just bring a good book and the food that you need and you're all set! Cannot say enough good things about this place.

This was our first family experience in a glamping pod so we were a little apprehensive, but it was a really good stay. The site was so tranquil and pleasant. The pod was immaculately clean and had everything you would need. The only thing we would have liked was more comfortable outside seating as a wooden picnic table isn't comfortable to relax on. All it would need for it to be perfect was to add a couple of sun chairs on the porch to admire the view 😄

We wanted a relaxing, clean and comfortable base so we could explore the area and that's what we got. The pods are very well equipped and paying a little extra for the bed bundle was worth it. My daughter and I found the pods were set out for maximum privacy and the view was beautiful. Would definitely recommend them and hope to return.

Had a lovely break away, the pod was spotless when we arrived. Peaceful and lovely atmosphere, there's lots to do within a short distance of the site, and if going into York centre for the day would recommend the Park & Ride only around 15 mins away. As others have said, flies are to be expected in this heat and close proximity to the water, but the owners have done everything they possibly can to help restrict them (fly screens, swatters, nets, spray, candles outside, hanging catchers). Would highly recommend and we will definitely be back!

Beautiful setting. Well looked after site and glamping pod. Spotlessly clean, well equipped and lots of helpful info in the booklet provided. Very small pod for 4, but only stayed 2 nights, so it was manageable.

Amazing weekend with friends. Location is beautiful and a short drive from small village of York. Beautiful views and walks, the pond is gorgeous. The pods were clean, warm and had plenty of space.

Had an amazing stay in our pod opposite the lake. The owners have thought of everything. Having Wi-Fi and a smart TV is lovely in the evenings when it's cold outside. The beds are extremely comfortable, the pod is very warm with the heating and has a good, modern shower/bathroom. Huge fire pit with grill for BBQing. The owner also extremely accommodating as we were arriving late. We will definitely be back.
