The sound of gravel underfoot and the familiar hum of the motorway beyond — Mellishaw Park is a working Traveler site where pitches are laid out for those who know the rhythm of the road and the practicalities of a stopover.
This is a site for caravanners and motorhome owners passing through or staying a while, not a holiday park with bunting and play areas. Dogs may be welcome but it's worth asking when you arrive. The facilities aren't listed in detail, so come prepared and don't expect frills — this is functional space for vans and caravans, plain and simple.
Campfires are something to check on arrival rather than assume, so have a chat when you pull in. The site does what it says: offers pitches for Travelers in the tradition they're named for. If you're after a quiet field with wellness yurts, look elsewhere. If you need somewhere straightforward to park up your van, this might do the job — but phone ahead to confirm what's actually available before making the trip.
