Why stay here ...

A popular holiday site in North Yorkshire, York Rowntree Park Club Campsite offers level pitches located on the banks of the River Ouse. Some pitches have attractive hedging and glades which provide not only a scenic treat but also ensure your privacy. The Club Campsite is within easy walking distance of the beautiful and historic city of York and also makes for an excellent base from which to explore the Yorkshire area. York itself has so much to see and do that you'll find the time can slip by all too easily. Using a pedestrian gate at the back of the site leads you to a parade of local shops, including a fantastic fish and chip shop with cafe, Indian and Thai restaurants and numerous takeaways as well as a selection of Cafe's, food and convenience shops.
Although the site is near to the city centre, it is peaceful and has a lovely rural feel, with pleasant walks down the side of the river to the Millennium bridge and more. York Rowntree Park Club Campsite is ideal for those wishing to visit York Minster - the largest gothic cathedral in northern Europe. Do include a walk to the city's medieval walls and the Shambles to get a feel of the old city with its medieval timber framed houses. You may also stumble across Snickelways of York which is a collection of small street and footpaths. Why not walk down Whip-ma-whop-ma-gate: a street of historical interest which is the shortest street in York with the longest name. Whilst staying at York Rowntree Park why not call in at the many real ale pubs, The York Dungeons, Jorvik Viking Centre and take a time-car, which will transport you back to the city's distant past. Should you have any budding archaeologists in the family, visit the ARC at St Saviours Church and train enthusiasts of all ages won't want to miss the award-winning National Railway Museum.

Perfect, Always kind and welcoming.
York Rowntree Park Club Campsite
We stay at the site quite often, usually just for 1 or 2 nights and every time we have stayed it is always easy and friendly to check in. The site is well set out and have a variety of different pitches, with awning or without awning we have always found a pitch we like. We would just like to thank the staff and hope they enjoy being at Rowntrees Site and never get any difficult customers.

Perfect!

Warm welcome, great facilities and a short walk into York. We will be back!
Great Location
York Rowntree Park Club Campsite
We stopped here for three nights on our very first caravan trip. The staff could not have been more helpful with parking and setting up on the pitch. Site is clean and well maintained with only a 10 minute walk to the centre of York. Have already booked to return.
Access and speed bumps
York Rowntree Park Club Campsite
I always read the access before leaving to make sure there are no hiccups along the way. The access to the site is down a road with parked cars mostly down one side. However, we are 8ft wide and on our visit a car parked towards the bottom of the road which meant it was extremely difficult to pass. Without the help of a couple of friending locals watching each corner as I had to reverse and nudge forward, we would still be there! I would like to point out that I am not inexperienced and very know the width of my unit. It is fine for motorhomes or smaller caravans but an issue when 8ft wide. Could I suggest you add this information to your before you travel notes.
When on site we were on pitch 65 which was positioned next to the speed bumps. Not normally and issue when people are observing the five miles an hour rule, but when motorhomes are hurtling passed, it does become an issue. Rather disappointingly too, is that there are notices about the speed limit and the wardens do not seem to be concerned about the restriction either.
Good weekend stay
York Rowntree Park Club Campsite
Great weekend stay, good location and handy for york centre.
Only 2 negatives, I have a 8m caravan and they forgot to allocate a pitch so ended up squeezing onto a small pitch. Was also unaware it was 11.15 departure, I knew it used to be when it was 12pm arrival but why cannot it be 12 departure when it is now 1pm arrival. When I said that she replied you have to be off as people arrive early, well sort that problem first and don't let people on until 1pm and then people could depart at 12.
