we booked 2 nights for Ā£14. for my 2 grandkids and myself. found out on arriving. that we were only allowed to stay on site for the one night. had to stay one night on the rally field. no toilets. and no electric. my oppinion. they couldnt be botherd to sort the site out on the friday. so made us stay on rally field for the best part of two days. they reduced the price to Ā£10. but only used site for a few hours. noisy no activities for children. Very Very dissapointed. if i travel to thirsk in the future. i will be staying elswere.Ā
Noisey Site
Very noisy site. With local Lidl having delivery bay right on top of pitches and having deliveries until late at night, combined with Ambulance and Fire station next door and the small lane which runs up the side of the site which attracts local boy racers and motorbikes out on weekend days out. Ensure you get a pitch as close to the reception block as possible. Remember about Race days and read the āimportant noticeā The wardens let you back on site between 6 and 7 on the evening after the race. Apart from that great for Thirsk.
Only good point is its closeness to Town Centre
We stayed one night only and thank god for that . This town is plagued with Boy Racers who will be burning up the local roads till the early hours > Where are North Yorkshire Police ? Then on top of that the Lidl delivery ramp is next to site fence so at 23.00 delivery arrives and proceeds to bang and crash unloading pallets for about an hour . The noisiest site we have stayed on . No blame to the wardens as they can only do so much but these points have been made by several reviewers and how anyone can give five stars for peacefull site is beyond me . Another couple of points , even though site had over a dozen empty pitches the "sorry site full " sign was on display . Why . Some Pitches (ie the best ones near the race track) were marked as not available . So what do you have to do to become a CC Club VIP ?? For Ā£19 a night the site is on a par with a club rally Field with electric but peaceful it certainly isn't.
Long weekend
There for 2 nights. toilet block a little dated but what is there is clean. Site is within walking distance of Thirsk. Wardens very pleasant and keep the site tidy.
A super stay
A well located site with good very clean facilities next door to Lidl and close to a Tesco and a short walk to picturesque Thirsk town centre. Thirsk is ideally located to explore North Yorkshire.
We really enjoyed our stay. The wardens are very helpful. The race course and its environs make a nice peaceful setting. We plan to return later this season.
Enjoyable place to visit
The 2 lady wardens were very good, and the facilities were best they have beenĀ

Noisey but good for a base to go to other locations .
Wardens pleasant and friendly , site was tidy and very friendly lots of conversations and laughing taking place . Perfect for a base , we went to Rippon , which was lovely , and Whitby which was also lovely . Only downside was the constant sound of boy racers with oversized exhausts going up and down for no apparent reason other than to annoy , this was every night until at least midnight, and very annoying to say the least and was the ONLY thing that will stop me using this site again in the future .
