Clear filters Feels like countryside but great access to York
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2024 A beautifully kept site with great facilities, especially the kids play area which is so beautifully designed.
Pitches are a great size and the location is fabulous for access into York, whether that's by bike, walking or bus (or car).
Great stay
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2024 Excellent site, everything we needed, we will be back.
Three night stay
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2024 Lovely site. Lovely guy (and dog) in reception. The showers normally started off a bit cool then ended up being too hot?? Shower block nicely heated. Great games room, great for kids and grown ups.
Nice site, but could be so much better
Single Axle Caravan - Hardstanding Super Pitches May 2024 If I can just go through my star rating above, I think they need explanation...
This site is reasonably close to York city centre, but far enough removed to be quiet and peaceful. If you are fit enough to walk at a reasonable pace, there is a bus stop within 15 minutes walking, although the bus only runs once an hour and can be full. A 30 minute walk takes you to the park and ride, close to the big Tesco store, this is a 7 minute drive. From there the city centre is accessible every 10 minutes.
The site is good value but would be more value, if the facilities were improved somewhat.
The staff were very helpful, even lent me a long hook up cable, as the position of the power hubs was a considerable distance from the front of our van (we have a VW T6 camper with the plug in point behind the front VW badge). The cleaning man was always chatty and very visible.
The facilities are where the site loses points. Although kept clean most of the time, the one toilet/shower block has only 3 toilet cubicles, 3 showers and 3 sinks. There are no urinals in the gents, so a toilet cubicle is required even for a quick number one, causing some hopping moments on occasion.
There were 2 washing up sinks which, considering the site was busy, were well used - as, you can imagine, were the toilets and showers. The design/layout of the site does not make it easy to make your way to the facilities block, basically you have to follow the winding road to get there, or cross other camper's pitches.
The site was generally tidy and I can't blame the site owners for the personal hygiene issues some people seem to want to share... The shower block cleaner had his/her work cut out. The bins were a central affair, close to reception, not close to most of the pitches.
Overall, we were happy with our stay, I liked the personal entry/exit code and site security and I liked that it was quiet and peaceful but, with a little thought and improvement, it could be really good.
Thanks, we enjoyed our stay.
Lovely little break
Glamping Cabin - Studio Pod Cabins May 2024 Lovely little place to visit. It was very easy to find and loved that it was close to many things such as York city, a large Tesco superstore (which was 5 mins drive) and also York outlet shopping. It was lovely and quiet and just a wonderful break from everyday life.
The pod was clean and came with all relevant facilities. Loved the fact it had a double bed, which was very comfortable, and loved the space saving feature of pulling it down from the wall.
Lovely weekend
Twin Axle Caravan - Hardstanding Super Pitches May 2024 Lovely weekend. We had a fully serviced pitch, which was great. Friendly staff, good location close to local shops and attractions.
Lovely campsite
Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2024 We had a lovely 2 night stay at this very clean, secure, well maintained and accommodating campsite. No complaints, the kids loved it too!
Handy location for quick cab into York
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2024 An ideal site where all pitches have ample hardstanding. Very reasonable charge in comparison to nearby sites for full hook-up. Shower block was clean and provided washing machines.
A set fee of £12 taxi into town and on the ring road so easy to get to from any route in. Great find. Will use again.
Amazing site great service and very good facilities
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2024 Amazing site, great service and very good facilities. The site was amazing, lovely scenery and very well kept. The service when checking in was great, very friendly and helpful. Finally, the facilities were very well maintained and had everything you could need. Highly recommend this campsite.
Lovely spot

Fantastic stay
Glamping Cabin - Studio Pod Cabins Apr 2024 Lovely place and can't fault anything at all.
Lovely staff too, who were very accommodating as we forgot towels, which they very kindly provided for us.
Will definitely return.
3 night break
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Apr 2024 Easy to find and great access. Instant good first impression on arrival by very warm and friendly staff at reception, with great local information.
Pitch was level in a small cul de sac area, which made it feel relaxing. Shower block was nice, warm and clean. Dog walk nearby.
A 15 min walk to a bus stop to York where we explored on two days. It would have been easy to hop on a bus or train to further destinations.
We will stay again.
Great getaway
Single Axle Caravan - Hardstanding Super Pitches Apr 2024 Great site with friendly and helpful staff.
Would recommend this site, thank you.
One night stay VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Apr 2024 Hard to give a fair review as we only stayed one night and there was a problem with the water system. It was fixed by the next day. We were out in the evening, so it didn't affect us much.
Lovely stay
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Apr 2024 Lovely place to stay. Lady at reception was very helpful. Close to the city.
Very nice campsite
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Mar 2024 Very nice campsite in beautiful setting. Busy site but in general, was quiet throughout our 2 night stay.
Great onsite facilities with play area and games room, as well as a little shop with good variety of items. Toilet & shower block was clean at all times. Would highly recommend this site.
Excellent pod the essence of glamping!
Glamping Cabin - Studio Pod Cabins Mar 2024 We had such a lovely stay at The Nurseries Caravan Park.
Super easy to find and check in with lovely friendly owners. The caravan park is well run and cared for. The pod was perfect for us with everything we needed with super comfy beds. Great shower and hot water. This felt like several levels up from the Shepherds hut we have stayed in before (elsewhere) so we felt really lucky to have found it!
We had a great long weekend and the kids enjoyed it. Easy to get into York from there. The park and ride not far away as well as the supermarket in easy reach. We had a fab stay and have no complaints!
We would highly recommend.

It's a lovely site & with excellent facilities. A great location & decent sized pitches. We'll certainly stay here again.
Pleasantly surprised
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Mar 2024 Booked this caravan site blind and it turned out to be very very good.
Gentleman at reception was both friendly and helpful. Pitch was fine. Facilities were 9 out of 10. Play park looked great. Shop was reasonably stocked. Shops, pubs and restaurants only minutes away.
Would definitely come back again.
Lovely peaceful site
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Mar 2024 Lovely peaceful site, good size pitches, a little tight to get in and out of. Very handy 7 minute drive to the park and ride for visiting York, with dedicated Motorhome parking.
Lovely campsite

Great campsite, very welcoming with excellent facilities
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Mar 2024 Site was easy to find and pitches easy to locate. Very welcoming at reception and provided information needed for stay. Facilities were clean and well kept. Easy bus route into York, bus stop a 10-15 min walk from campsite and easy to locate. Would stay here again.
First stay
Single Axle Caravan - Hardstanding Super Pitches Mar 2024 First time stay for us. Looking forward to staying again.
Fantastic stay
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Oct 2023 Weekend away as a couple in our Campervan. Site was really easy to find and really clean and tidy, despite heavy rain. Facilities very good. We used it as a base to get into York city centre. Bus was about 10 min walk away and then about 40 mins on bus. We got an Uber back for £12.
Only gripe was the pitch was quite sloping and despite putting ramps under our wheels, we couldn't get the van level. All in all though, lovely stay and would definitely come back again, thank you.
