 Just returned from a 2 night stay during half term week. The owners were really helpful, and gave us an information pack on arrival inc bus times and local places of interest. The site shop was really well stocked. The tent field we stayed in was a short distance from the lock, and was a nice place to walk our dog, and also not too far for our toddlers!
Toilets were clean, and there was enough hot water for a shower at 7pm! There is a family/disabled shower room which was really helpful.
York center was a short drive, but parking was very expensive. River boat to York only runs at weekend so we missed out. Would def do that next time.
We will definitely go back!

Just returned from a long weekend at Naburn Lock, and I have to say that the camp site is great, the owners at arrival gave us information about York it’s self and the costs were ok. We got to our pitch and found the grass and the size of the pitches very good.
The toilet facilities were very clean and tidy with the owners working into the late night in order to keep them clean. The site it’s self has lovely views of the lock, which we walked down to, to watch the many boats coming through.
We decided to travel to York via the river boat and it was well worth it, at £8 return for an adult it sounds a lot but the trip is great and it’s lovely to get away from the roads.
The site doesn’t have a play park for kids but mine never missed this feature as they were off exploring and had a great time.
All in all this site is very good and I would have no problems recommending it to anyone, can’t wait to return.

We recently spent the bank holiday weekend at this delightful site with our tent using electric hook up. It is very picturesque & very handy for visiting York. The site is very well run by owners who clearly work very hard at maintaining high standards.
Toilet/shower block is immaculate, Dishwashing area adequate but tad open to elements. Well stocked shop on site, selling essentials & the owners are extremely friendly & very helpful (providing both river boat & bus timetables. Tent pitches are very spacious & our kids had acres of space to run around.
Fab views onto Naburn Lock but not too near for the safety conscious. Various options to travel into York - river boat/bus stop outside site or taxi (£10 one way). We opted for boat trip which handily stops a short distance from site. As we have a young family, the owners strict curfew of no disturbances after 11pm was very reassuring & appealing. We will highly recommend this site & look forward to returning sooner rather than later.

Fantastic site!
We were part of a 3 van party, 2 caravans, a motorhome and 3 extra cars of people. We arrived at various times through the day and the latest van of our party arrived at 9.30pm after being stuck on the M62 but still had a warm welcome.
We were put at the far end of the site but were still in easy reach of the toilets and other facilities and it suited us because we could be together. Superb clean loos, showers and pot wash area. Had to wait for the showers in the morning but only 2-3 minutes so nothing to complain about, never had to wait for the loo.
No play area for the children but plenty of room to play ball etc on the site and a huge camping field to play in that wasn't too full.
Pitches are brilliant, we stayed in the family bit but it was still nice and peaceful. Dogs were welcome and the walks for them by the river are really lovely.
Super shop on site, best I’ve seen on a campsite! Only thing they didn’t have was Calpol for the youngster in our gang but I’m certain they will have it next time as the people in the shop took a note of it and there was everything else imaginable in the shop down to treats for the dogs.
Blacksmiths arms about a 10/15 walk away is a super dog friendly pub, we took our 3 border collies in who are used to pub life and they were greeted by the pub dog and most of the customers! We didn’t eat at the pub but were told the food is very nice.
River boat to York is good value for money, children and dogs welcome. Wasn’t too busy either which was nice.
All in all a fantastic well run site in a super location cant wait to go back.

Excellent site, very relaxed, clean and friendly, we will definitely return and recommend to our friends.
The River Bus was worth the trip, but we didn't try the local bus service into York. However beware if your taking in the car for the day as it cost us £10 to park!
Next time we will take our bikes as it is nice and flat!
The site was quiet despite being full, there is an adults only bit too. There was lots of space between vans which makes a change and grass pitches around the site too.
The camping fields looked lovely and overlooked the lock at Naburn. Again clean and lots of space for the kids to run around.

We chose this site since it was our first ever tour out in our new caravan and wanted to be fairly near to home.
We certainly picked a lovely site and the weather couldn't have been better!
Owners were so friendly and when we first got there we had a problem with our jockey wheel but there was no shortage of people offering to help us out.
The river was so close and although we had picked the only weekend that the river bus was not working, it was still nice to walk down by the weir.
Our children loved the site. It was large enough for them to roam but secure enough to know that they were safe.
The shop was well stocked and the toilets were clean.
We were so impressed that we asked to return the weekend after but they were full! We will return.

Had a beautiful weekend at Naburn. This is a lovely spacious relaxing site, with friendly staff, and nice clean up to date shower blocks!
Great walks along the lock and the riverboat into york saves the hassle of driving into the city! The weather was gorgeous for this time of year so we fell lucky!
We will certainly be returning.

Just got back from a glorious weekend at Naburn Lock. This is a very peaceful and beautiful site. The showers are spotlessly clean and you could hear a pin drop at night its that peaceful (with the exception of the owls!).
They also have recycling facilities for bottles and cans. You can catch a river boat into York or there is an hourly bus service right outside the park. The village has a nice pub serving food, which is within walking distance.
The river itself is literally two minutes walk away from the site. All in all this is a beautiful site which I would definitely be visiting again.

This was our first run out after picking our caravan up one week earlier.
I wanted somewhere fairly close and local (about an hour away) seeing how we was new to caravanning (well after a 7 year gap).
Naburn was ideal a little awkward to get to but once you got there it was well worth it. To say its only 2 mile from the a64 you feel a lot further tuck away nice peaceful and quiet!
Toilets were very clean plenty of showers and a very well stocked shop on site.
This is an ideal site (for us) very easy to get to, motorway 99% of he way.
Staff was very pleasant and helpful

Have just spent a lovely four day break here over the Easter break and although the site was full, the grass pitches are very very spacious and you don't feel overcrowded at all. Tarmac roads throughout and some street lighting to the top end of the site. We were at the bottom of the site and were disappointed that there is no night lighting down there, so you may need a torch for nightime loo trips, this is my only negative.
Toilets and showers and clean and tidy and have not had to queue for a shower all weekend.
The on site shop is well stocked and has most of your essentials and a small camping accessories section, the loo chemicals cheaper here than at our local caravan dealer!
Had a couple of nice evening walks down to the lock and up the River Ouse, which runs adjacent to the site and watched the boats sailing up and down.
Kids have a good playing field for ball games but no swings / climbing frame, which was a surprise, but plenty of room for cycling their bikes around here.
The pub in the village does food all day and you can get a good cooked breakfast for £2.99 at the weekend and we bought fresh baked bread from there, they have regular evening entertainment at bank hol. Weekends too.
Overall we have rated this site very highly, the access is good, just two miles from the A64 and we made it back from Whitby in an hour, so great for the coast too.
We will definitely use this site again for weekends as it is only an hour from home for us. Highly recommended.

This is a charming site in beautiful grounds next to the river. Spotlessly clean and well kept, and has a child free pitch area if that matters to you.
We like to leave the car when we're away and haven't sussed the buses here yet, but will do next time as taxis and car parking are quite expensive in York. There is a boat bus which you can get on by the camp.
Would definitely visit again.

Just returned from a four day break at this well looked after campsite. As other people have already mentioned the facilities are kept spotless and the owners are really friendly and nothing seemed too much trouble.
There is a pub / restaurant within walking distance, although we went in the car (literally 2 minutes drive) as there were no footpaths along the road.
We used the park and ride from the nearby Designer Retail Outlet which cost £4.00 return for two adults into York city centre. We would definitely recommend this site to anyone.

Fantastic Site, it is very hard to add to what has already been said about this site, it really is as wonderful as the reviews say it is. A very clean and cared for secure site.
The owners are so very nice and helpful, as soon as we realised our EHU lead would not reach, an extension was lent to us with no charge or deposit required.
The showers and the toilets are the cleanest I have ever seen on a camp site, the piped music is a really nice touch. There are ample hooks for you towel and clothes and even a shelf to put your shampoo etc. on.
The pot wash area is spotless and there is a laundry room you can use.
The site is very close to York and the transport links, either from a bus outside the site or from the park and ride at the outlet park are excellent. We were even allowed to take our small dog on the bus.
We have already booked for our next visit and we just wish we had found this site earlier in the year.

What a lovely site spent 4 wonderful days with our 2 children.
Toilets and showers were clean night and day and the owner's are always on hand to give out information on anything you need to know.
We have to say that the owners go that extra mile after forgetting needle and cotton to repair our inner tent the owner promptly opened the shop and returned with a packet of needles and cotton A Big Thank You to them both.
We spent two days in York doing the sights we found it best to use the local Park and ride detail in reception.
Pickering train is well worth a visit but get there early can be hard to find a parking space if you leave it to late, you will find that you need a full day we caught the 9 o'clock train and stopped off at all the stations we then caught the last train home from Whitby at 6pm worth the money
