A popular holiday destination in North Yorkshire, York Rowntree Park Club Campsite offers level pitches on the banks of the River Ouse, where attractive hedging and glades ensure a scenic, private stay. The site is within easy walking distance of historic York and serves as an excellent base for exploring the wider Yorkshire area. A convenient pedestrian gate at the back of the site leads to a parade of local shops, featuring everything from traditional fish and chips, Indian and Thai restaurants, numerous takeaways as well as food and convenience shops.
As one of our most popular campsites, pitches here can fill up fast. If you are finding limited availability for your preferred dates, our sister site York Beechwood Grange Club Campsite is a fantastic alternative. Just 5 miles away, it offers a peaceful retreat with a quick 15-20 minute Park & Ride connection straight into the heart of the city.
Whether you stay at Rowntree Park or our nearby sister site, the magic of York is right on your doorstep. Despite its proximity to the city centre, York Rowntree Park is peaceful with a lovely rural feel, and pleasant riverside walks to the Millennium Bridge. It is the perfect base for visiting York Minster - the largest Gothic cathedral in Northern Europe - or walking the medieval walls and the iconic Shambles. From the historic Snickelways and the famously named Whip-ma-whop-ma-gate to the immersive Jorvik Viking Centre and the National Railway Museum, there is an endless array of history and culture to discover just moments away.
