Excellent site

Our first visit to this site . We were greeted by the wardens who were so welcoming and friendly the site is clean tidy well maintained and a credit to them. The site is well set out and just a short walk to the center of York and very handy for the Barbican . Toilets and showers spotless and lovely and warm . Looking forward to revisiting the site later in the year

Get rid of the keys

I can't say anything different re the site, the staff and the location but please get rid of the key system to the toilet block. I understand the reason for keeping the loo's locked but do we have to have such a dated system of using door keys. Twice during my stay a went to the loo only to have forgotten the key. Age and not being used to such a system. How annoying to either have to go back or wait for someone to come by and help. Also the cost must be sky high. 100 pitches x 2 keys and approx £5 and spares is well over £1000. What could be simpler the a key pad operated lock. 2 x £25. The code could be changed periodically by the warden. Other than that this is site is a credit to the wardens who appear to manage it with ease and yes I will return.

Recent Visit

Just returned after a 4 night stay. Its been over 3 years since our last visit mainly because of the sites popularity and our availability. Wardens warm and friendly. First noticed the changes, the site is much more open and light. The location is great just a short walk into York even with 3 large dogs. Can also recommend the Indian Restaurant (access from rear gate) we had takeaway because of the dogs. Although many places are dog friendly (can recommend Stonegate Yard in York itself) but its hard to find somewhere that will take 2 shepherds and a ridgeback and still have space for other customers. Plenty of outside seating in York when the weather is warmer. Didn't notice any noise from the building site next door. Hopefully we will return.

Very helpful staff & great location.

We booked for only four nights as this was our first visit to this site and we were not sure what it would be like. We really liked it and wished that we had booked for longer. We then had a phone call from the next place that we were going to say they were closed due to heavy snow. The staff at Rowntree Park were really helpful and extended our stay. We liked the fact that the site is really close to the city but is far enough away to feel tranquil. There is a back gate that leads to nearby shops and restaurants. The facility block is clean and modern. Our overall view of this site is summed up by the fact that we have booked to go back later this year.

We booked just for two nights as we know York very well anyway. The site we had not stayed at before but was just perfect for visiting this superb City. There is plenty to do and see and the choice of restaurants is non ending. If you want to visit York stay at this site you will not be disappointed.

Ideal for Central York.

We had to book in October to get on to site in mid January! Totally understandable - pleasant riverside walks-even for this time of year-15minutes from the centre of York. Takeaways and pubs within 150 yards on Bishopthorpe road Staff and facilities as good as any C&C site Yes there is a building site next door, sadly this will re start imminently but noise etc will be Monday to Friday only! it might reduce the waiting list but won't prvent us from re booking

Good site- shame about the building site.

We arrived on a very busy Friday afternoon, we were greeted and allocated a pitch due to the length of our Motorhome. The pitch was spacious and the facilities are spotless. It was easy to use the MH service pitch although due to the large numbers of arrivals there was a queue, but not an issue. This site is a perfect site for a city break, very central, with nice walks along the river. My only disappointment/fault is that we were not made aware of the building works next door, which went on til 6ish Friday evening and started again early Monday morning...the noise from the building site is very loud!! So if staying Mon-Fri be aware of this, it’s early stages so not sure how long it will continue. There was some noise from passing revellers on Saturday night but nothing too disturbing for a city centre.

Busy Friday Check in

We arrived on a Friday afternoon, really busy changeover but the staff are really well organised and we were pitched really quickly. The facilities were spotless. Bit of noise from the public road late at night from kids on bikes on the Friday but no real issue. Reluctant to tell everyone how great the weekend was because it is difficult enough to get in without people saying how good it is.
