Typical CC Site
Called here in January as Rowntree was still closed.
It is a typical club site with excellent facilities, clean and tidy, and in a good location for trips out. Beware if you have no transport and want to walk the dogs as you are not allowed off the site with dogs, not on a lead or even carrying them, they must be inside a vehicle to travel on the access road which belongs to Horse Stud. Its a 15 minute walk along the road to a pub a Toby Jug. and a 10 minute car ride to the Monks Cross shopping centre, and park and ride, which we used to get us into York. Very easy to use and convenient easier than parking in York without the hassle of trying to find a car park and then wondering how many hours to put on the ticket. The Park and ride is free parking and the bus fare was £2.80 return.
The only criticism i have is to do the diabolical excuse they have for WIFI not a problem if you don't need it but just to get my email was a total pain, they said they are trying to block heavy content usage like Facebook, streaming movies etc. which is a good thing, but even the clubs own web pages were taking 5 minutes plus just to load up, this is very basic web browsing, and is a total disaster. I paid for wifi for the full year and it is not fit for purpose. It is not just this site as we had just come from Bridlington and the wifi there was just the same.
If the club can't supply a useable system then they should abandon it all together instead of upsetting club members by charging them for something that doesn't work.
Imagine buying a motorhome, and finding out they had put a lawn mower engine in it, thats what the club is doing, but hey they have charged you for it anyway
