 We went to naburn lock for bank holiday weekend with our tent. The site is very good. Toilets were spotless all weekend, hairdryer points available and plenty of loo roll.
The reception has a shop which was great for bread and milk each day, owners very nice, camping field ok not the flattest field but was ok. Definitely will return here.

A nice site with friendly and helpful owners. We stayed on a hardstanding pitch in the adult only section, there was plenty of hook-up and water points. Unfortunately, that weekend was rather wet and some people found their tents and awnings standing in water as parts of the site are prone to flooding.
There was plenty of showers and toilets which were kept clean and tidy. Showers cubicles were fairly basic, but the water was hot and plentiful. There is a well stocked shop on site too, which we found useful. There is nothing worse than having to ride around looking for a supermarket for that one item that you have forgotten to pack. Lots to see and do in York, too much to mention.

Our visit to Naburn lock was our first but will certainly not be our last. On arrival we were greeted by Peter & Catherine Wilkinson who made us feel very welcome.
The pitches are spacious and are grass or hard standing. Toilets and showers were spotless. The shop was well stocked, the grounds are also clean and tidy with facilities to re cycle waste. The dog walks are great.
You can also either catch the bus into York or as we did catch the river boat. We saved on parking and had no need to drive at all. This is a tip top site, a real little gem.

Excellent site. Owners were friendly and helpful. Very clean excellent location for York and surrounding countryside.
The tent field was massive with huge amounts of space so no need to pitch too close to neighbours.
Coming back from a busy day and walking to the lock and small waterfall was fantastic. The water was close enough to enjoy but far enough away not to worry about small children.
Everyone we met on site was really friendly. The park and ride at the discount shopping centre was fantastic in terms of value and service. We never waited for more than 5 mins.
The only thing preventing us returning is the 200 mile drive from Colchester.

What a lovely site, very friendly site owners. We were in the adult only section which was very peaceful, had a walk around everyone looked well spaced out with plenty of room to sit out. The shop on site is well stocked. Toilets were well looked after with music playing. We enjoyed the river cruise into york with the dog. The black bull pub is just under 15 minutes walk, we had lovely meals here, on a sunday night they do a steak night fantastic. Can see why people return here.

Great site, really helpful and friendly. Plenty of room between pitches, lots of room for the kids to play. The shower/toilet block kept nice and clean and the onsite shop was brill! We walked down to the lock and followed the river most days which was quite beautiful. Would definitely return.

We were made very welcome. The site is excellent and very well managed. Facilities are beautifully clean and plenty of hot water in the showers.
We met many people who are regular visitors to Naburn Lock and that in itself says many things, we will be back next year.
York is only a few minutes away by various methods of transport, but as we have a dog, the car was the only option, parking in york is not cheap, but this is not the fault of the site.
We had a lovely stay and good luck to the site for the various awards it hopes to add to its c.V.!

I stayed here over a weekend. The site is quite pretty with the owners entering the York in Bloom competition. It is also very close to the river Ouse, with its river boat into York. I didn't try the boat as I had dogs, but was told by a fellow camper that dogs are allowed on the boat, but I can't confirm this. You are given details of the sailing times and also timetable for the local bus, which stops outside the site.
The toilet and shower blocks are kept clean, although I would have liked a little more space in the shower cubical. The shop looked well stocked, and the sausages bought from the shop were very nice - apparently produced locally. I didn't spot any specific play areas for kids, but there were a number on bikes in one of the mown fields. There was also a field to exercise the dogs in.
The only niggle I have (and it is small) was the distance from our field to the toilet / shower / washing up block. It was a bit of a trek, not good in the rain!
There is a dead quiet policy from 11 pm to 7 am, which is enforced. In fact there wasn't much noise during the day either.
All in all I would be happy to visit this site again

Lovely clean and well kept site. The owners were very friendly and are working hard to make this a friendly quiet site. The toilet blocks are cleaned twice a day and were really well looked after, with music from the local radio station piped in and electric points (free) for hairdryers etc.
Quite a good shop on site with loads of tourist information. Just on the outskirts of York and easy to find with a good bus route and boat into York (although didn't use either when we stayed). We were on the rally field not too far from the facilities however some campers who were at the bottom of the field used their car to travel to the facilities as it was a bit of a distance away. Also we were next to the road which could get quite busy and noisy during the day with only a hedge between our tent and the road - luckily it quietened down at night.
Lots of nice walks nearby with dog bins. Lots of signs on the site to enforce the 11pm quiet time and this was adhered to when we stayed. The site also require campers to recycle waste. Local pub does a full english breakfast for £2.99 between 9am and 10am (we didn't go as were not sure if dogs were accepted).

This site is perfect for site seeing around York. There is a bus service right on the door step which is reasonably priced. The facilities are excellent with a well stocked shop clean toilets and showers and neatly kept grounds. A Short walk to the locks is a pleasant way to end an evening. Will definitely be returning.

What a fantastic site, near to York, great little pub in village with button poping meals and great beer. Site was well kept, only the birds to wake you up in the morning! Facilities kept very clean and the wife loved the easy to use showers with constant hot water. Will be going again.

What a site, fantastic. Great location for York and the surrounding area and there is even a bus service which stops right outside the site. Very clean toilet and shower block although could get a little busy at times together with a laundry room, camp shop, and a very well kept site, a perfect combination. No playground for the kids but plenty of space for them to run about. The owners are quite firm about the noise levels and request utter silence between 11pm and 7am, not a bad thing for a family site. The pub down the road, The Blacksmiths Arms, served food which was top notch, you can get a good meal from the varied menu at a reasonable price, would recommend a visit. I will be going back soon and will be looking forward to it. All in all a good site well located and has now become a family favourite for me and the clan. Oh and by the way the rain came as usual when we were leaving but hey, that's camping.

This site was reccommended to us and we were not dissapointed. We went with a party of eight and two large tents. The pitches were excellent, a good size, flat and well serviced if required.
Peter and Catherine run an excellent and well organised site and are alway happy to help with anything. The site was very clean and tidy with plenty of water and rubbish point along with a number of recycling points.
The toilet block was spotless with a constant hot water supply. 15 mins from york town centre and 5 mins from shopping mall. A local pub in the village sold good ale and a wide choice of food including full English Breakfast if required.
Pitches were available without power should you require this. Adults only area should you require this but to be honest the site was extremely quiet and a very strict policy on noise after 11.00pm. Will definitely visit again.

We have just got back after a 4 night stay over the 2nd May Bank holiday. We were in a party of three caravans with 3 small kids and 2 teenagers between us, so we asked to be pitched together to make it better for the kids to be near each other. We were told they dont normally do this ( a max of 2 caravanans only, due to noise problems in the past ) However when we arrived we did have 3 pitches together just across from the shower block, the pitches were plenty big enough with loads of room around for the kids to run and play ball games.
The facilites were kept to a high standard. I have a three year old who is scared stiff of the showers and will only normally have a bath but the staff here let me use the disabled shower room for her, this was great as the shower head came off and I was able to shower at ease with out water going near her face ( 1st shower in a long time without any tears from her ).
The shop is also very good, stocking everything you would need from bread, milk, bbq food and equipment tin food, frozen food, tea, coffee, eggs, bacon, newspapers, caravan and camping equipment, calor gas, sweets and a few kids toys.
There is a pub just a 10 min walk away, with great food and great lager. A bus stop is just at the entrance of the site if you fancy going into York or you can go on the river boat
The only down side to the site is a bad smell near the toilet block, and no kids play area for older kids.
All in all a very good site and great owners.
I will be going back sometime soon.

Where can we start!
Well we've been coming here for the last couple of years and spent nearly every weekend here last summer. We absolutely love it - peaceful idylic surroundings, central to almost everywhere you could manage to visit over the holidays, fantastic pub just a short walk away with portions to really 'stuff you out'!
The lock is a lovely walk for everyone and you can also catch the riverboat into York which is really good.
And to wrap it up, the site facilities are spotless, well stocked shop and Peter and Catherine are fabulous people.
Highly recommended.
