This time of year - even us 'outdoors' types need places to go if the weather is challenging - the location of this site provides for good/bad weather days. York; Knaresborough; Harrogate; Ripley; Fountains Abbey; Bolton Abbey - easy access to Yorkshire Dales for great walking; or museums, cathedrals; markets for wet/snow days. Easy to leave the car - buses run from close to the site. Local walks also easily accessible from the site. Site itself is kept beautifully; and pitches felt large and nicely spaced. The little bistro is lovely; food very good. Its a discrete little place - don't notice its there. Maybe more noticeable in the warmer weather when tables outside.
