Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Pitches 1 to 10 seemed to be for adults only which is something we really liked. Great location with lovely waljs around the lake.

Disliked: A group of teenagers making a lot of noise at 11pm and later.They also made a mess of the toilet block, throwing toilet paper everywhere The staff did their best to keep cleaning up after them.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Excellent Clean, tidy and peaceful site in beautiful surroundings, lots of wildlife and lovely lakeside walk with views of Castle Howard. Toilet facilities very clean with nice showers although a little cramped. Delicious fish and chips from the visiting chip van. All in all a great stay.

Disliked: No internet or TV signal as area is very remote. No shop on site. Nearby farm shotgun sounds heard from 7am in mornings, presumably to scare away crows.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're happy to know you enjoyed your stay at our clean and peaceful site. Lakeside is in a rural setting and our guests enjoy getting close to nature, dark skies for star gazing and our beautiful location.

Nice site, with clean facilities and friendly staff.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: The site was well looked after, nicely spaced pitches. Our pitch was level. The shower amenities were clean and tidy. Friendly reception staff.

Disliked: Albeit the showers/toilets were clean and tidy both the shower cubicle and toilet cubicles are a tad small. Only 2 washing up sinks which if the site is full is not enough to cope.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and we're pleased to hear you enjoyed our well looked after site and friendly staff. Thanks for your feedback regarding the showers and toilet cubicles and washing up sinks. We will let the relevant teams know. We hope to see you again in future.

Local attractions

Yorkshire folk are rightly proud of 'God's Own Country' – it's home to some of the finest historic houses, coast and countryside around. If you want to keep things local, head out to Kirkham Abbey (15 minutes' drive) to visit the ruins of the priory or for waterside strolls along the Derwent river. Like to be beside the seaside? Of course you do, and luckily this area has plenty of options to choose from. If you fancy venturing to Whitby's harbour and beaches, drive to Pickering (25 minutes) and hitch a ride on a steam train for a stonkingly scenic journey over the North York Moors. Bempton Cliffs Seabird Centre (an hour away) is a rather wilder beauty spot – this nature hub is home to about a quarter of a million nesting seabirds (so be sure to pack your binoculars). Art, architecture and landscaped grounds can all be rather moreish, so check out other historic houses in the area, like Nunnington Hall (20 minutes), Duncombe Park (25 minutes), Sledmere House (30 minutes) and Beningbrough Hall (40 minutes), if you fancy a change of scene on your blue-blooded escapades.
