The organisation of this site made a busy arrival period work extremely well. We didn't even need to reverse onto a pitch as 2 wardens swooped in and offered to push it quickly onto the pitch. The number of arrivals and departures each day mean this isn't the most peaceful of sites but I suspect that most people come here to visit York itself and don't spend much of the day on site. We did use the park adjacent to the site a couple of times for walking the dog and relaxing in the sunshine. Be warned though, the ice cream van takes advantage of a captive audience with the most expensive ice creams ever! I heard families walking away complaining about it being a "rip off" but reluctant to disappoint the children. The location of this site is perfect for access to the city and the facilities are well maintained. Ideal city break.
