Facilities were great, hot showers & clean toilets, even a dish-wash station & laundry facilities. The staff at the check in desk/mini shop were all so kind and helpful, great choice of supplies & treats at the shop too! You get a good discount if you decide to head into Castle Howard house & grounds which we did and had a brilliant day - highly recommend! Lots of beautiful walks to take in the area & a lovely lake to fish in which my partner was very happy about. All in all 10/10, we shall be coming back! PS - the crows are not an issue as some other reviews have said. Dont be in nature if you dont like nature! 😂 · via Google [Bruce Potter](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/118251730408358811123/reviews) ★★★★★ I and my partner spent two nights here in the last week of May and we couldn’t have asked for more! Plenty of choices to pitch the tent, endless scenic views, friendly campers in every direction! The showers/toilet block seem to get a mixed rap online but we never found them in less than a clean and welcoming condition. There are washing up/laundry facilities too. The reception/shop is well stocked with basics and tasty treats, the staff are ever so friendly/helpful. Our walks by the Great Lake gave us views up the back lawn of the Castle and our stay even entitled us to a 2-for-1 entry to house and gardens! Overall a fantastic experience and we’d recommend it to anyone. · via Google [andrew brown](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/112996913255010880317/reviews) ★★★★★ Stay at my parents lodge here multiple times a year. Secure gate, friendly and helpful staff, lovely residents. The campsite looks pretty decent too and there is a toilet block. Some of the one star reviews are hilarious. One guy is complaining about there being too many birds. Dude, you’re camping a field outside. There’s birds outside. 🤣 Another was complaining there is no lake and “you can’t find it”. The lake is huge. I genuinely have no idea how you couldn’t find it. 🤣 · via Google [Lin Martin](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/110292504788831403334/reviews) ★★★★★ Fabulous campsite, good value, catering for all preferences. I stayed in the field, no hook up. Great shower block, warm with plenty of hot water. Sunset stroll beside the lake - ducks, swans and lovely view of Castle Howard. Only slight gripe is the shop stocks lots of luxury items, but no basics - milk, bread, papers etc. Overall though, my favourite site on a 5 day tour. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x487ed46723c39f3d:0x49695b7540676ab!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) Visitors say this campsite offers spacious, level pitches with electric hookups, clean and heated toilet and shower blocks, and laundry facilities.
