Lovely stay

Lovely site, quiet and nicely laid out. The wardens are very friendly and helpful and the site is located in a great position for exploring York and surrounding area. We would definitely use this site again.

As described

One of our favourites, easy to find, clean, well laid out, ideal for visiting York (car free) and surrounding areas, ie. Lovely Beverley with it's old buildings and market. Knaresborough, Harrogate, Thirsk, and Pickering.

feels like home

Love the Beechwood Grange site. We have been comming twice a year for a number of years and it feels like comming home. The wardens are excellent, they were so helpful when our dog fell in and needed veterinary treatment. The shower block is a little dated but always spotless. The accessibility into York is by park and ride only 5 mins drive away. Looking foward to next trip.

Excellent!

We had a bad experience on our way. A rear tyre let go on the motorway on our mobile home. The inner step was blown into pieces, plus wiring problems! When we eventually arrived, a gentleman from the site immediately lent us a double step and measured and cut a piece of wood to fit and screwed it into place. Thank you. The site was busy but spotless. There were plenty of children, but no noise! We will certainly be making a return visit and would recommend the site.

York Stop off.

We picked Beachwood Grange in York as our last stop on our way home from a trip to Scotland. very pleasant and clean site the usual Caravan Club standard. No traffic noise and a lovely drive through a stud with horses on both sides. we went into York on the park and ride and spent the day there for £2.80. and the Park and ride was only 1.5 miles from the camp. would definitely stay again.

A VERY GOOD SITE

Noise: Some audible road noise during the day, also occasional military aircraft noise. Both were noticeable, but neither were particularly intrusive. Both were absent from evening until early morning. WiFi / Internet: Terrible! When lots of people were online it was impossible to log on. During the night and sometimes during the day when most people were away from the site it worked, but even then was very slow. In all other respects, the site was typical Club high standard. Public Transport: 5 or 6 minute straightforward drive to Monks Cross where the Park & Ride starts. Lots and lots of parking there – and a huge Retail Park adjacent (includes Aldi; M&S; Next; Prezzo; Asda and…and….and!). Collect a disc at the P&R entry barrier. Bus driver validates the disk for free parking. Concessionary bus pass accepted from 9am onwards – total Concession charge to park all day, bus to York City centre and return to Monks Cross was £1 per head. Busses run very frequently until about 9.30pm. Bus from York to Leeds Centre (Bus & Coach Station) run every 30 mins during the day from York City centre (Stonebow stop) and from York Rail Station – Concession cards valid 9.30am onwards. Journey time with “Zap Bus to Leeds” typically 50 mins. Coastliner service goes same place, but via many deviations into villages along the route and therefore takes much longer. Things to do: Lots – obviously a very personal preference, but we enjoyed the Leeds – Settle – Carlisle railway as far as Appleby. For a year or so, whilst a landslip beyond Appleby is repaired, there is a special offer of a “Leeds-Carlisle Rover” for £15 a head, instead of the normal £27 or so. We used the 9am first concession P&R from the caravan site, the Zap bus at 9.30am to Leeds and then the 10.50 train to Appleby. A very pretty train trip. York Centre Club Site, or Beechwood? City is quiet and walk able to city centre, but we felt it was a bit crowded and lacked character. Beechwood is subject to a bit of noise as commented above, but we thought it a nicer site and getting to York city didn’t take any longer from Beechwood than be walking from

2nd Visit

2nd Visit to Beechwood, stayed on pitch 17, which is a very spacious pitch, and was great to see the rabbits running round on the playing field. Again facilities spotless all weekend. Wardens work so hard to keep the grounds immaculate. This site seems to have some of the friendliest members out of all the sites we have been on.

June Holiday 2016

This is a nice site which was quiet when we visited as it was outwith school holiday times. It was quite difficult to find due to the council taking the signs away! There is only one toilet block on site which was kept very clean but would probably be really busy during busier times. The pitches were of a generous size, however, during our visit a number of pitches were unavailable due to tree cutting taking place. There is a good dog walk on site. This is a well laid out site with something for everyone. Very convenient for York. Would definitely come back again
