Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Jul 2023 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.
Camping
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches Jul 2023 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!
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass Pitches Jul 2023 Friendly staff, good facilities, great value for money and amazing views.
July 2023
Medium Tent - Electric Grass Pitches Jul 2023 A fabulous week's break & would go again. Perhaps could do with more sinks for washing up, but otherwise amazing.
Pleasant site Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches Jun 2023 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
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Jun 2023 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
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Touring Pitches Jun 2023 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.
