York Naburn Lock Caravan Park
Naburn, York YO19 4RU, UK
Adults-only five-star park beside the Ouse, four miles from the Minster
About York Naburn Lock Caravan Park
York Naburn Lock unfolds across thirty peaceful acres beside a Victorian lock on the River Ouse, just four miles south of York's medieval heart. This adults-only site earns its five-star AA rating through meticulous attention to detail: generously spaced pitches—grass, hardstanding or fully serviced—many with their own patio and picnic table, and a rebuilt facilities block offering hotel-style private shower rooms rather than open cubicles. The traffic-free Sustrans route runs right from the park into central York, making the Minster an easy twenty-five-minute pedal or hour's stroll along the old railway line and riverbank.
The child-free policy is precisely why many guests return season after season, seeking calm rather than playground chatter, though some find the atmosphere can feel a touch subdued. A small shop covers essentials, dogs are welcome, and the riverbank offers plenty of walking. Naburn village pub sits within easy reach, and the A64 opens up the North York Moors, the Wolds and the coast at Scarborough or Whitby for longer days out.

Beautiful and peaceful caravan site in the lovely village of Naburn. Adult only and dog friendly. Site very well maintained, with excellent facilities; showers, toilets, laundry, dog walk field and a shop/office.\\nVery close to the river and local coffee shop, and just a 10 minute walk to the village pub.\\nBus stop is right outside the entrance to the site. Takes 20 mins to get into York and the bus is dog friendly.\\nHighly recommend and will definitely be staying there again .

What a lovely campsite! 1 of the best we’ve stayed at! Staff are warm and welcoming. The entrance is a coded barrier and the toilets and shower/dish washing facilities are also coded to gain access. Feels much safer, I really liked this idea. Codes are given to you upon check in along with your electric card. Explanation on how this works is easy and simple and you can top it up at reception if you need more electricity. All the facilities are amazing and were spotless the entire time we were there no matter what time of day. The campsite is all level and well looked after. Plenty of water taps, bins and waste points. There is a big dog exercise field which is great! Small shop onsite within reception area. Park wardens/staff around the park or in reception if help is needed. Most enjoyable for us was it was SO peaceful!! Occasionally some road noise but apart from that it was birds, cows and silence. Just what you need for a nice holiday.

Amazing facilities!! Everyone was incredibly friendly and the little shop had pretty much everything. The pub was not too far and lovely food. Boat trip to york was lovely and the bus back gave us a nice day out. Thought the busses were more regular around every two hours in the end so unless your driving you need to plan a trip out as not much around to see.
