The facilities are warm clean with pipping hot showers . The wash up is enclosed and warm. Pitches are well maintained and the site is very tidy. It’s very close to York Center about a 15 minute walk. Masses of restaurants, shops , theatres and there’s museums also. A nice touch was on Christmas morning there was a tub of chocolates outside our van…. Probably Father Christmas Definitely be back. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x4879314b7d9be4bf:0x328cd53c6d688513!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) People say this caravan park offers well-maintained pitches and spotless, warm facilities, including plenty of showers with hot water.
