The crunch of gravel underfoot and the distant lowing of cattle announce your arrival at this working farm on the edge of the Vale of York, where wide skies stretch over flat, fertile fields and the historic city's Minster is just a short drive north. This is classic Yorkshire countryside, all hedgerows and pastoral calm, well-positioned for exploring both York's medieval streets and the market towns that dot this ancient agricultural landscape.
This traditional Certificated Location suits CAMC members seeking a peaceful, no-frills base rather than resort-style facilities. With just five pitches, it offers the tranquillity that comes from genuine farm settings, where the rhythms of rural life provide the entertainment and the city's attractions remain within easy reach for day trips.
Expect a straightforward setup: electric hook-ups available and space for tents, caravans, and campervans on level ground. The campfire policy requires checking on arrival, so ask the farm owner about current arrangements. The atmosphere is quintessentially CL—quiet, uncomplicated, and rooted in the land, ideal for those who appreciate authenticity over amenities and enjoy being part of a working agricultural environment.
