Why stay here ...

Crockey Hill York Caravan Site is a peaceful site, only 10 minutes from the beautiful city of York and is perfect for a city break in a rural setting. The site is located on a large flat field with ample space for an awning, surrounded by mature trees and hedges. All our pitches have the option of electric hook up. We are open from March through to December with good draining sandy land for the winter months.

We have a communal drinking water tap, grey and waste disposal points and recycling facilities. We do not have a shower/toilet block.

There is a bus stop adjacent to the site which is a main bus route into York. The buses run regularly 7 days a week  throughout the day and night so you can visit all of York’s many tourist attractions, with late buses on a Friday/Saturday night so you can enjoy the many bars and restaurants on offer.

McArthur Glen Designer Outlet is only a couple of minutes away with many shops and food outlets and is also home to the York Park & Ride.

For the cyclist there is easy access to Route 65/66 cycle track to York and beyond.

We are only a 10 minute drive from York Racecourse or alternatively you can walk or catch a bus from the city centre.

We have plenty of villages within a 1 – 3 mile radius with lovely local shops and pubs serving home cooked food. There is a farm shop just a 2 minute walk from the site.

This site is an excellent base for exploring the surrounding area with easy access to the East Coast, the North Yorkshire Moors and the Yorkshire Dales.

Very handy for York - but feels like the countryside

Crockey Hill (York) Caravan Site
Had a 4 night stay last week and really enjoyed it. The pitches are a great size and the ground is fairly flat. Amenities small but perfectly formed and the information hut was useful. Buses into York every15 Mins and the designer outlet is very near. On the other hand, it's close to a farm shop (excellent quiche!) and country cycles or walks. Have already recommended it to friends and will go back again.

Excellent site

Crockey Hill (York) Caravan Site
Visited here for 3 nights and was greeted by Gina the owner. Really friendly and helpful with information about buses, walks, cycle routes. Unfortunately the bus company Arriva was on strike but we got taxis into York and back. On Sunday we cycled to Selby a flat, relatively easy 24 mile round trip on a B road. You can normally use a cycle track, previously a railway but work was being done this weekend so no access. Lots of really pretty villages on the way with lovely cafes and pubs. The site is really quiet and massive! No toilet/shower but we have everything we need on our unit. Cannot fault this site and very reasonable at £18 per night. Gina kindly let us stay on site a bit longer on our last day to save us clock watching whilst out cycling

Brilliant Site, just what I wanted during these strange covid times, Gina & Gary have done a very good job. This site is just South of York just off the A19, its has a bus stop that is 200 metres walk from the site, with a regular 15 minute service into York City Centre. Its an all grass site, flat, well marked out plots, with EH points. Lots of alcohol gel points at the drinking water point and Elsan point. Access is by a gate, you get the access code on arrival. Gina & Gary are very friendly, and will give you a good brief on arrival. Cost per night is £ 18 pounds, with electricity, and awning. Will come back to this lovely site, only thing is the mobile phone reception is poor for some providers.

Ideal for visiting York

Crockey Hill (York) Caravan Site
Used this site for our first visit to York. Easy access into the site. Ideally placed with a good regular bus service into York. We also cycled into York-partly on the main road and then we picked up the cycle lanes. Flat site with 12 pitches. We were there over a bank holiday and it wasn’t full. There is some traffic noise. Definitely use this site again.

New Well Laid Out Site With Good Access To York

Crockey Hill (York) Caravan Site
Access to the site is easy, no narrow lanes,and a wide turning splay in. As a result there is some road noise from the adjacent lane but this is not continuous and should not put you off from coming. Like the previous reviewer we stayed in early August when there was a larger than expected occupancy of the site. Yes there are 12 bays but not all are used at any one time and it gives the owners flexibility and the ability to rest bays so that grass can regrow where it has suffered from die back due to groundsheets. As for the flames from the barbecue referred to by the earlier reviewer this is something they should have raised at the time with the members of the club using the barbecue we would have done. Access to York via the park and ride or via the normal bus service is exceptional. The site does not have a picturesque view across a Yorkshire valley or moor but it does have a very good access to York and the Aircraft Museum. The owners are very friendly and helpful and it is a site to which we would return.
