The service attitude is terrible with chaotic and awful management of the caravan park. I called ahead to confirm our pitch for our 7.5m caravan, but once we arrived, it was clear that the car wouldn't fit in the pitch. The electrics from the pillar point weren't working and the manager from the bar was vague about fixing it in a timely manner. We were told we couldn't change pitches because they were all booked. After waiting for 90 minutes, another manager arrived and suggested we run our hook up wire across the road to another pitch. After a series of disconnections and reconnections of four vans, I went to take a shower at 6 pm only to find there was no hot water. The manager on duty couldn't help and said that another manager would come see me at 9 am the next day. The second manager arrived late and claimed the water was working fine now, but I was already frustrated by the lack of hot water the night before. After discussing the issues, he offered to refund one day's stay if we left. There are much better sites with park and ride options from all corners of York. We will not be returning.

I stayed on the adjoining touring site with my wife for two nights and visited the pub on both nights. The first was just a quick drink in the excellent beer garden and the second night was the weekly “steak night”, where we dined on one of the best meals I’ve had for some time and at excellent value. I couldn’t fault any of the staff, some of whom have previously received less than positive reviews, which in my experience appear unfounded. We will definitely be visiting again.
