Loved this site

Really friendly and helpful staff. Just about walkable to Knaresborough but buses also outside. Lovely toilet block (x2). Pub and bar on site, basic food but tasty, well cooked and very good staff. Lots of excellent attractions and walks nearby. Really enjoyed our stay and will be back!

Can’t wait to visit again

We stayed here for 6 nights. What a wonderful site. We were greeted at reception by a very friendly and helpful warden. Always a good start. Our pitch was very good with many pitches separated by hedges. I can’t speak about the toilet block as we didn’t use it. The site itself was very tidy and looked very well cared for. Although we didn’t think we would use the bistro we did actually go in twice. Once after a local walk we called in for a drink on our way back to our van. The second we met up with friends who were staying on site for a couple of nights. Despite planning to just have a drink together we all ended up having a meal. It was quite basic but no complaints and very well priced. There is so much to do and see within half an hour of the site. Something for everyone. We left quite reluctantly knowing it wouldn’t be long before we visit again.

Brilliant Site

If I could give this site more than 100% I would. The facilities are top notch - as is the cafe/bar/bistro on site. The main reason though for the high score are the staff. They couldn’t have been more helpful, friendly and accommodating! Would definitely recommend. Area is lovely with lots to do around and about. We just stayed for two nights but would have happily made it more if we could.

Excellent location

We stayed for 8 nights and can't fault the site or the staff. It is really well located for lovely walks along the River Nid and also visits to the many picturesque towns nearby. We took the train from Knaresborough into York to see the sights and that was very straightforward and saved city driving. Brilliant for a long stay but also well located for a stop off going North or South.

Great Site Great Facilities Great Area

A lovely site, welcomed by the wardens on arrival and made to feel appreciated. Fantastic little cafe on site. Great Inn in the village with fantastic food. Nidd Gorge great for the dogs, who all came back after along weekend exhausted. Great walk into Knareborough and plenty of options in the gorge but might want wellies for the wet area's after rain. Dog area where your dog can runnfree but watch at the bottom as hedge has gaps onto main road. Definitely will be back.Lots of space between pitches and good wifi onsite although we used our own router.

Amazing site

We had a long weekend with some friends (we are caravan they are motorhome) at this site. The welcome from the staff was lovely. All the facilities are cleaned to a high standard although the main block is in need of upgrading they kept it to a high standard. The new café/bar is lovely with an excellent atmosphere and the site staff are doing a great job in there as well. Around the pitches and hedges are so well kept with lovely straight lines and no grass encroaching over the edges. It is quite expensive but that is not the fault of the staff and as so many of us now have, I have sorted my own personal wi-fi with a 5G system for my caravan so I can stream and work when I have the need. An amazing site with amazing staff.

SEPTEMBER 2023

Lovely site with friendly wardens, large pitches and immaculate facilities, my only gripe was there were a lot of dog owners who seemed to think it acceptable to let their pets bark incessantly. Guy Fawkes Arms within 10 minutes walking distance with good food and excellent service. Knaresborough about an hour walk along Nidd Gorge (which is stunning) or approximately 40 minutes along lane at back of site (which cuts out the majority of the road). Knaresborough is beautiful especially along the river and up at the castle.

First visit, hopefully not the last

Nice welcome, all staff pleasant and friendly through our three night mid week stay. Only our fourth visit to a CAMC site as we are newbies to caravanning, but the facilities all well kept and clean as expected and seen at other limited amount of sites we have visited. The grounds, pitches and grass all well looked after and presented. The Wanderer bar was the only cause of uncertainty for us, as other reviews have said. I understand the "bistro" type of menu will no longer be available and only snacks in future. Might be worth a phone call and check if like a couple we spoke to had not brought enough food with the plan of a meal in the restaurant. Out and about in Knaresborough if visiting by car the parking is limited but vey cheap. Busy as school holidays so can take some finding. As expected with a little old town, some of the road can be a little tight, so for longer motorhome outfits it might be worth looking on the outskirts if any are available, manoeuvring was hard enough in a medium sized car. A great site and plenty to see around the area, so we hope for a return visit.

The wanderer.

Having stayed at this site a number of times, we have seen many changes mostly for the better. Earlier in the year, we were somewhat disappointed that dogs were not allowed in the restaurant bar, however, July brings a change. Back to dog friendly, & it's a cafe bar. Well done to the wardens for working with this concept, and with support from the club, to replace both indoor & outdoor furniture to be more in keeping with a relaxed cafe concept, rather than a restaurant. We can see this being a great addition to the site. It goes without saying it is a busy site, and the staffing has to reflect the concept of the Wanderer bar. We'll be back later in the year.
