Long awaited visit managed to get two nights with availability

Two night city break in the middle of our weeks mid term holiday. Had to book each night separately due to pitch availability but site staff sorted out week before so we didnt have to move pitch. Followed directions on web site via A64 even though coming from North. These were accurate. On leaaving wardens told us we could use A59 withoout any problem so followed signs for Harrogate. Ideal for City literally on doorstep via river bridge. Facilities large and spacious, site very quiet. Almost no grass probably because of past floods. Wardens friendly and helpful. You need to book well in advance though as nearly always full. We did city wall walk which was very easy. Great location.

Great 4 Day Break

 Met by pleasant helpful warden told to find a pitch and complete check-in at leisure later. Loved the pitches seperated by hedges , should be standard on all CC sites. Lovely walks by the river and the park next door, good for children as there is nothing for them on site. An easy stroll to the city which will not disappoint. No wonder the site is always booked up! (Promised the Boss I would not whinge about the Club booking system and people "block booking" with no intention of using all booked dates.)

York back to normal

Just spent 2 nights at Rowntree, we were meet by very welcoming & helpful wardens. The site & facilities immaculate. The site & wardens are a big improvement on the site about six months ago when the site was run by ill mannered wardens. Thanks to the caravan club & the present wardens for sorting out one of the jewels in the caravan club crown. A warden can make or break a club members holiday. Looking foreword to booking next year. Well Done. Many Thanks. Smile

Another great weekend

Met by a warden on entry which speeds up the checking in process to avoid a jam on the approach road! Great location and excellent facilities. Very clean shower block and friendly wardens. Will definitely return.

Another great visit

We come to York every year and this year was just as great as all the others . We were met by a warden and went through check in and strait to a lovely large pitch plenty of room for caravan awning and car , the new part of the site is blending in as tho it had always been there . The shower and toilets are emculate and the ramp is a great addition for the disabled , I miss the outside washing up area as I like washing up outside as it's like being in France  ( the inside one is great tho ) .the wi if is not very good as I managed to get connected on the first day then the next 4 no connection think it needs an upgrade . Hope to get back next year if we can get a booking !

Great location

This was the first time at Rowntree Park. We were there for a purpose (The Yorkshire Marathon) so weren't too bothered about facilities as long as we could be as near the marathon start as possible (at the university). However, we were greatly surprised by the number and quality of the showers etc. It's not the greenest of sites, but who needs grass when there's Rowntree Park itself next door and some great walks along the river bank. The walk into the city centre was relatively flat and traffic free (again along the river bank). The wardens were very welcoming and helpful and all in all, it was very pleasant few days on the site. Would we return? Definitely!

Perfect

After joining the club this was the first site we visited and all I can say is that the site was perfect, so glad we joined the club and hope to visit this site many more times in the future.

Wonderful weekend

Thanks to Ian and his team for making us most welcome and the site is immaculate. The friendly atmosphere and local attractions make this one of our favorite club sites. We met some fellow club members we had not met for at least twenty three years; so we had a lot of catching up to do. In all, a memorable weekend and look forward to our next visit to this site.
