Visited the York Club site mid September 2022 & we had good weather.
The site & facilities are immaculate & well maintained. Staff are very pleasant & helpful.
It is a wee bit expensive £287 for a week in September but this is one of the clubs premium sites & can be difficult to get booked due to the popularity of the site.
It is located near the centre of York a short walk from all the historic attractions.
Clementhorpe Road is now reopened & the previous diversion through Butcher Terr & Rowntree park is closed.
Well situated.
We stayed two nights and loved it, you are about as close to the city centre as you can get, if you leave by the back gate and turn left you go into Rowntree park and that is amazing for walking dogs or just strolling around, a ten minute walk gets you to a fish and chip shop that gives discount to CAMC members!
Pitches have hedges dividing most of them, facilities were kept clean as was the whole site, wardens friendly and going about their duties.

Great site - very poor staff attitude.
We totally accept the rules around arrival times, but having arrived early we were greeted by "just get back in your van", "you lot will all have to go and come back later, I'll let you in so you can go".
No argument we were 30 mins early, but a simple "hello, nice to see you but I'm afraid you cant come in yet......" would have been more welcoming than no greeting at all and a sharp, rude statement.
Great site - very poor staff attitude.
great location -noisy morning
Fantastic location and even at £48 for one night its a cheap way of staying walking distance of York centre with no worry about where to park.
Surprised by a loud radio at 7am and though it strange for a club site -only to realise when we went out that it was noise from flats nearby. Didn't really bother us but may others. 11.15 off site felt early too :(
Superb site but
Superb staff,superb position,superb spotless facilities,but 96 pound for Friday and Saturday night OUCH, overpriced !

I Can't Believe This Isn't A Members Only Site!
Given how popular this site is and how difficult it is to get on I can't believe it's NOT for members only!!
This is a lovely site in a great location but it is very difficult to book a stay.
Stopped here early June ( booked a year in advance) and the team of four wardens were extremely happy and polite.
What difference a few weeks makes, stayed late July and only two wardens on site/duty all weekend and you could sense fatigue was starting to set in.
Site still well kept but it was very busy.
The Wardens still undertook all their duties but the spring in their step along with the smiles on their faces seemed to have slipped a little bit.
Maybe it's due to non-members not knowing the basic club rules with regards to noise, ball games, walking though pitches, leaving rubbish by the bins etc, that's worn them down.
Seriously think this should be a members only site!
We love this site but…..
Like I said we love this site, location for York city centre is excellent, the wardens are always helpful and friendly, the whole site and facilities are spotless so what’s the but…. Unfortunately at £48 per night it’s getting too expensive!
Flood management works are finished: full access restored
Back to a favourite site for a few nights. As usual, constantly fully booked months in advance, so I booked single nights on the same type of pitch until I had what I needed - then asked the site to link them so we don’t have to move pitch
All the flood management works are finished so the old entrance is open and there is no curfew. Brilliant location for Motorhomes, and for dogs who love the river and parks.
3 night break in york
Arrived just after 1pm had a bit of trouble getting to site as the road was closed.
Fast tracked in as there were lots of people arriving all at the same time found a pitch set up and headed out into town (about a 15 minute walk along river)
Lots of lovely walks along riverbank and plenty of cycle tracks
Found it a bit noisy on site as there's a park with play area just the other side of the hedges also make sure you pitch up as near to the post as possible if not you will get a call telling you to move your van like we did.(could only use one side of our garage as we were so close to the hedges) site was very clean and maintained and in a great location for the town center
