Why stay here ...
Our site is very quiet and secluded. It is set in an elevated position (450ft) on the edge of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and faces south. It has far reaching views over the Vale of York and across to the Pennines. The site is grassed and slopes gently and is equipped with ample hook-ups and water supply. Horses or cattle normally graze in the adjoining fields. The area is good for walking and sight-seeing and is convenient for exploring the City of for York, the Howardian and Hambleton Hills and the North York Moors. The East Coast is an hour's drive away. Easingwold (3 miles drive away) is a very small and attractive town with a good range of local shops including a variety of take-aways. Local pubs provide a wide variety of food at a range of prices to suit every pocket. There is riding, golf (Thirsk and Easingwold), fishing and racing (Thirsk, Wetherby, Ripon, York) nearby.

Lovely site
Yeoman's Course House
This was a lovely site……beautiful views and a very lovely area. There is loads to see and do within easy drives from this great site
Fantastic!
Yeoman's Course House
We stayed for 6 nights. A beautiful site, with lovely views. The owner was really friendly…she has 3 lovely horses in the field!
The facilities are fantastic…..not sure about the showers as we use our own but I’m sure they’re good as everything else was.
The field is sloping…..we tried to put our van back up against the hedge but due to its long length we couldn’t get it level so parked it with the front close to the fence, like the furthest one in the pictures. Nobody seemed to mind and it worked well there.
Payment can be by BACS which is always useful.
Lovely cl
Yeoman's Course House
Just had a 4 night stay at this fabulous site. The site is gently sloping , but there are plenty of wood to level the caravan.So not an issue.
The site is immaculate with bins for recycling and waste water outlet as you enter, all clearly marked. The block that houses the 2 toilets and shower is kept immaculately clean and we'll equipped. There is also a room with information, a washing machine and dryer for use with a charge.
The chemical waste is one of the best that I have seen on a cl, screened by fence panels .
It's was very peaceful with welcoming owners.
Easy access to Easingwold , York and North Yorkshire. The views from the site are lovely, on a clear day you can see York minster.
Will definitely return .

Fabulous CL site
Yeoman's Course House
Just back from a five night stay at this site. Very peaceful surroundings probably one of the quietest we have visited. Facilities very good with two toilets and shower, bins for rubbish and recycling etc.
As others have mentioned, the site is sloping but there are plenty of bricks and wooden blocks available to help set up.
There is plenty to do and visit in the area. We particularly enjoyed visiting Easingwold on market day (Friday). Lots of individual shops and cafes to visit. We had a lovely walk around the White Horse (approx 7 miles away) and visited the following day to do the forest walk.
Hope to visit this lovely site again.
I keep saying I won’t review the best CLs
Yeoman's Course House
From the great views to the perfect location this site is everything and more I want from a CL. Friendly owner and immaculate in every way. It’s heaven on a hillside. It has a slope but bricks are provided to help on the corner legs. We have two young children and we have walleyed and played in this peaceful part of the world.
