Great little stopover

Melgoats
Stayed here for one night as the site is close to the A1. Also on the edge of a village with a pub. Owner is friendly and welcoming. We were on hard standing but will come back in the summer when it arrives. Easy access Would recommend

Lovely CL

Melgoats
This CL is ideally placed as a stop off when travelling north or south on the A1 or for a few days of rest and relaxation. The owner provided detailed directions and we had no problem locating it. There were grass and hardstanding to pitch up on, which was fortunate as there had been heavy rain. Good access to local walks across open fields for the dog. Very quiet site with good views. Local pub looked inviting although we didn't get to try it this time. Would definitely return if in the area.

Lovely spot

Melgoats
A lovely quiet spot to stop off, easy access to the motorway but far enough away for no traffic noise. Very helpful owner Mr Simpson gave directions for local walks and dog walks direct from the site out onto farmland. Facilities provided are basic but includes electric and are very reasonable. Did not make it to the pub but hope it's still open for business.

Very warm welcome

Melgoats
The owner is so friendly and helpful. He gave us really good directions to find his lovely peaceful site. A really quiet spot with good walking opportunities, or if you just wanted to sit and relax, there are beautiful views across fields. The Green Dragon a community pub is less than 1/2 mile away. A great find and a useful stop if heading north or south on A1M. Electric hook up, chemical point, water and waste (not drive over), bins with recycling and a toilet if needed.

Great value site

Melgoats
We recently completed a 4-night stay at Melgoats. The owner Bruce was an excellent and friendly host offering info on local amenities and best routes as well as being on hand to welcome us and help us settle in. We heard next to no road noise despite the proximity of the A1. Well placed for access to Bedlale, Ripon and Wensleydale. Nice views from pitch, clean loo and hook-up all for £8.50 per night. Lots of friendly regulars use this site and we could see why : well done Bruce!
