Really good spot by the river and park, five minutes and you are in York. Visit the Jorvik, museums, shambles and shop till you drop. Get a good breakfast and meals at Wetherspoons, Lovely walk along the river. There is a handy row of shops through a back gate... good for takeaways. Certainly go back here. Lovely staff too.

Rowantree York Site
I would like to recommend this site for the easy and quick walk into the centre of York and also on checking in you receive a key for the back gate which takes you out onto a street with local shops and take-aways also a Sainsbury local for all your groceries etc.
The site is very well kept and the wardens work very hard and they are very helpful with any questions regarding the area etc. Lorna and her husband are the only wardens which we spoke to and they both work very hard morning noon and night in order to keep the place tidy and ready for all new arrivals. The check out time is sometimes a bit early if you are setting out for home as you need to be out for 11.15am all days so as not to block the road for the new arrivals as it is very narrow.
Will be back again in a few years or perhaps sooner as it was good being able to park the motorhome and not need to use it until we were leaving and when you have a large motorhome it does make a difference not having to move about with it.
Not for children under 10
Not a site for families. My children could not ride their bikes or scooters nor could they run or play with their friends. They were told to play in the park outside the caravan club site. However, the caravan next to us could use foul language and keep us awake till 11pm at night. I will not be bringing my family to this site again
Schitterde camping
Schitterende camping
Dit is een fantastische camping voor een bezoek aan de mooie stad York.
De camping ligt op loopafstand van de binnenstad.
En de stad is meer dan een bezoek waard.
Het sanitair is zeer schoon en modern, de kampeer en camperplaatsen zijn ruim en netjes afgescheiden door hegjes, en voor tent kampeerders is een apart veld, kortom kan niet beter.
De beheerders van de camping zijn uitermate vriendelijk en behulpzaam.

Wedding route
We stopped here, on our Gretna Green wedding route.
Lovely place, clean, friendly and scenic.
Great on the tour bus, 24 hour ticket, to see all York has to offer.
Busy place, top wardens.
Great site
Just had a lovely sunny week in York. It's been 6yrs since we last visited & it's still as good as ever if not better since the old building that was in the middle of the site has been demolished Wardens were great. Well located within easy reach of town. Easily walkable to York Railway Museum, York Minster & The Shambles, in fact our car got parked up on our pitch & didn't move until we came home. Lovely Rowntree Park is right next door. After realizing how much we enjoyed it there we won't be leaving it as long to go next time.
Whit break
Another sunny break at York, ideally located on the outskirts of the city centre within walking distance. Good sized pitches mostly hedged and private, most pitches open to the sun which means satallite tv is good. There is plug in TV, but water and toilet emptying are limited around the site so be prepared to walk. Toilet cleaning is around 10.15 to 11.15 which can cause queue's on leaving days. Our last couple of club stays, the wardens cleaned the toilets mid afternoon, when most people have gone out for the day. This caused less congestion, and people took their time in a morning rather than rushing to beat the stampede before the morning clean. Having said that, the wardens were very friendly, chatting as they worked whenever they passed. The alterations since the old building was flattened are fantastic. We will be going again soon. Take kids to York railway museum and York dungeons and don't forget your bikes and the park next door.
Short Break
Good short break in lovely city of York.Usual chaos on arrival some had been let in to pick a pitch and some seemed to be expected to pay 1st.I was told we would like you to use 23 or 98 as you are short,it would make a very nice change to have free choice of pitch !!.after all we pay same high rate per night.Toilet block warm middle of the day and cool early evening,but water hot so that's the main thing.If going to Leeds on the bus try the City Zap as it was much quicker.All York seemed busy.Better weather Wednesday and Thursday made walking nicer.Looking forward to next visit for St.Nicholas Christmas Fayre.
