The River Ouse slides quietly past the edge of Major Bridge Park, carrying the reflected spires of York Minster downstream on calm mornings.

This is a caravan and campervan site on the doorstep of one of England's most walkable historic cities — ideal for couples or families who want a touring base without the frills of a full-facility park. You're in York, so cobbled streets, medieval walls and riverside pubs are all within easy reach, though you'll want to check what's actually available onsite when you book. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth asking ahead if you're bringing a four-legged companion.

The setup is straightforward and low-key. Campfires are at the discretion of the wardens, so have a word when you arrive if you're hoping for an evening fire. Facilities aren't specified in detail, so best to confirm showers, hookups or waste points directly with the site before you set off. It's a quiet, no-nonsense stopover rather than a destination campsite — perfectly pitched for exploring York itself.
