Xmas shopping
We usually come here every November for xmas shopping. Its a 10 minute walk into town. York is full of nooks & crannies. We never tire of it. There are loads of shops. Well known shops and many independent shops. Plenty of places to eat & drink, to suit all budgets. If you leave the site by the rear gate and walk up to Bishy rd, you will find a great fish & chip shop, + Thai, Indian & Italian eating houses. Plus more independent shops. The river is directly out of the site and Rowntree Park is next door. If its culture you want then there's stacks to do. Enjoy.
We will return
Stayed here several times. Love walking to Bishy Road for breakfast (through back gate). Always full site but facilities fove star and kept to high standard by brilliant friendly and on the ball wardens.
Absolutely Fabulous
I can understand why this site is fully booked all year round - lovely location by the river and an easy 10 minute walk into the city. Site and facilities are superb. Wardens were very efficient at checking in the long queue of vans that all arrived at 12pm! I was a bit concerned by the motorhome racing round at well over 5mph to get the best spot and nearly knocking me over.... It's a pity so many people book a year in advance and cancel at last minute. It was the only way I could get in - pick off the cancellations one night at a time. But these are the caravan club rules unfortunately. York Rowntree though is probably the best site on the network and well worth all the effort to get a booking!
York mid November Excellent Wardens ??
Another good visit to one of our favourite sites. Particularly impressed with the streamlined check in process which has in past been problematic. A big well done to new wardens, a very efficient and friendly team. Hard to believe they've only been on site for only 5 days.
New wardens
Having just had a lovely weekend on this site ( our 4th visit) feel the club should be made aware of the actions of one of the wardens.
Upon arrival we were mer at the barrier by the warden, clipboard in hand, who was "speeding up the booking in process"
He took my membership card and duly lost it, so whilst we waited for him repeatedly searching his many pockets and dropping his spectacle case three times, he told us we were on a white peg.
We drove round twice and could only find one white peg tucked away in a corner,
I unhitched, got the legs down all the locks on only for him to come to apologise that he had told us wrong and we had to move to a blue peg!
I wasn't happy and had to pack up again and relocate.
We called in the office to pay the day after and his wife insisted we had paid! We clearly hadn't,
I learned from the lady that they had just been there only two days and had hit the ground running, so fair enough I accept we all make mistakes, but can the caravan club please ensure their wardens are trained and capable of what I consider to be a straightforward checking in process, I arrived and got Frank Spencer!
LOCATION GOOD
ONE DOWNSIDE IS THE 11.15 DEPARTURE TIME
THEY SHOULD MLE THE ARRIVAL TIME 1.00 AND LET US STAY UNTIL 12.00
.AFTER ALL WE HAVE PAID FOR IT

One minor negative.
Further to my previous review I have one negative comment. Would it be possible for the wardens to clean the toilets in the afternoon when the majority of the campers are off site rather than at 10.15 am when there is a maximum demand for the facilities? Campers are on holiday after all.
