We feel that we must reply to the previous review. We have stayed at Rowntree Park many times over the years and feel that we must take issue with the points raised. There are 25 acres of parkland with a huge children's play area the other side of the hedge, not 2 minutes walk away. If you wanted to, you could walk 10 miles in either direction along the river path, enough excerise to tire any dog. The pitches are relatively close together but this is effectively a city centre site, you are 5 mins walk from the centre of York with all its attractions. We  think this is a fantastic site and will be looking forward very much to our next visit.
