This is a return visit for us from about 10 years and sadly it seems to cater more for caravans than tents now. The toilet blocks and showers are very well kept and heated, there is a separate indoor room with a fridge freezer and 2 washing up sinks and all local leaflets. Would be nice to have a few local walks printed out for visitors to use as the site is in a beautiful area. Malton town is 25 minutes away where there is a lidl and Morrisons for provisions along with lots of independent shops, we visited Scarborough which is around 30 mins away.
There was a children's climbing frame on field which looked fine.
The only problem that we found is the fact that the whole sites water seems to be turned off at night and not put on until morning ( first morning was after 9 and 2nd morning about the same) might not of been such an inconvenience had we been informed of this prior.
As our first time camping. Can't express how we felt. The views were spectacular and the site is stunning. We will definitely be booking again soon. I can't wait and the people are so friendly. The amenities are so clean and plenty of hot water anytime. If your thinking of going camping this place should be at the top of your list. Thank you to all who made us welcome. See you soon. Xxxx
Access was via a very long lane from the A64. (Long enough to ensure there was no road traffic noise on site. )
A little busier than we are used to, and a little more “family friendly” too, but that didn’t detract from having a great weekend on an good campsite.
Booked by ‘phone 3 days before arrival, all pleasant enough, and no deposit required.
Was met at reception on arrival, where we settled up and was shown around.
Was offered a nice big pitch, flat and well grassed, with no specific defining border. EHU & drinking water tap post adjacent, and car parked next to tent. Grass was well mown over the whole site, but sturdy (Hard Ground) pegs needed below the top two inches. The ground held very well. No outward views from the pitches due to the site perimeter hedge, but from the entrance and beyond, the views to the North were stunning. There were benches and plants in that area to help you take it all in. Nice touch.
Although the site was busy, with all forms of tourer’s and seasonal, it never felt cramped. A little noisy at times due to kids running around and having a whale of a time, as there were a few family groups on. Play area and a big open space in the middle of the camping field to encourage them along.
Must stress though, there were no late night disturbances, although the site began to come alive around 07:30. Not a problem for us, although I would respectfully remind fellow campers of the term “camping voices”!
A walk around site showed numerous well kept seasonal vans, most with their own little “gardens”. All very much appealing to the eye, with maybe a few rough spots around the edges (Old barn etc, but out of view for the tourers).
Facilities were plentiful for all, with ladies, gents, plus 3 all inclusive family rooms to boot.
The gents were split in two. WC’s, Urinals and hand basins in one room. This included hand soap, drier and paper towels. The second room had showers and hand basins. Again with hand soap but no drier or towels. Makes sense, as you’d expect to take your own towel for this room.
Shower cubicles appeared to be newly added Moulded white plastic type pod with glass door. Slightly more spacious than many shower cubicles, and came with temp and flow control, with no push buttons, and on a hose, so easy to rinse out. The only negative was slow drainage. Whether the drains were too shallow, or simply needed unblocking, I’m not sure, but seemed to be standing in a good inch of water throughout. Other than that, I’d describe the showers as excellent.
I’d describe them as being “surface clean”. Look long and hard, and it could be argued a good thorough deep clean was about due, even allowing for the fact that we are at a campsite, not a hotel.
All the above was within the usual shower bay, so room to dress and hooks on back of the door, plus a duck board for when exiting the shower itself.
Always hot water throughout, and always a good flow.
From memory, I think it totalled 4 urinals, 5 WC’s, and 4 hand basins in room one. A similar number of hand basins plus 5 showers in room 2. Despite what appeared to be a 90% capacity on site, never got close to any queues for any facilities.
There was also a campers room, which included 2 washing up sinks/drainers, a small table and chairs, fridge/freezer, microwave, toaster, hot drinks machine (£1 per drink) and the usual tourist info, books & games library etc. Again, and excellent facility all round.
The main man was always busy and pottering around, and always seemed available if any help was needed. Reception/shop wasn’t always open, but a mobile number on the door suggested that help was never far away. We never needed help, so didn’t try it out in practice!
We took a trip to Filey on the Saturday (35mins by car) and Wolds Way Lavender on the Sunday (2 mins by car, as it’s literally next door!).
All in all, a pleasant site, with lots of positives, and taking into consideration a conversation we had with our immediate neighbours, who suggested the site “was busier than the same week for the previous 4 years”, I reckon it was just a case of imperfect timing on our part, with regards to the number of large family groups, and kids running around. They were never a bother, just a lot of them! We’d have probably enjoyed the previous weekend, or the next one, a little more! With that in mind, we’d definitely be happy to stay here again, but almost certainly either in the week, or more likely a weekend outside of July and August, just in case!
Having stayed on this site at Easter in a tent, we have since 'upgraded' to a touring caravan. We came back for our first 'go' in the van.
Yet again Derek and his staff were friendly and helpful, a friend towed the caravan to the site for us, we arrived early but that was fine, we left late afternoon and that was fine too. We were helped to site the caravan for our single night stay and as newbies to caravanning given pointers which was much appreciated.
The site was busy but despite this all areas were well maintained and spotlessly clean.
Superb! The site is well signed off the main road and the approach is along a 1 mile, well surfaced private road. The location is on top of the Wolds giving fantastic views over the Vale of Pickering. There is a smart reception area and if this is not open there is a contact number to ring on the door. The owner, Derek, lives just next door and could not have been more helpful. The site itself is spacious and well maintained. The amenities block is 1st rate including a nice little kitchen; ideal for those backpacking or in bad weather. I would certainly fully recommend this site and would use it with my motorhome if I am in the area in the future.
Excellent facilities, absolutely spotlessly clean toilets and showers, and even baths if you want! The facilities were well heated which was great at the time of year we visited!
Derek and his staff were friendly, welcoming and clearly take a great deal of pride in ensuring that the facilities are top notch and everyone enjoys their stay.
We arrived just after the Easter bank holiday and were given a choice of where we would like to set up, there was plenty of space given to each tourer. Plenty of electric hook up points and water points around the field area.
The children loved riding their bikes and going to look at the cows. There was plenty of space for them to play ball games. The main play area is more for younger children but there is an area with tyre swings for older ones. The dogs loved the fields and there are plenty of areas to walk them nearby.
The washing up facilities are indoors which again was great for the time of year we visited. A lovely family area to sit and use if the weather was miserable and you fancied a change.
Its a great location only 20-30 minutes from the beaches of the East Coast, close to York and lots of walking areas nearby such as the Dalby Forest.
Can recommend the Ham and Cheese and the Fleece pubs nearby for good meals and dog and gluten free friendly!
Its not often we go back more than once to the same site but we will definitely go back to Wolds Way again.
I visited this site with my 3 kids and dog at the beginning of August this year and I have to say what a delightful place it was. It is the first time I have been camping where I had an actual tour of the facilities etc.
It is a beautiful camp/caravan site with stunning views and scenery. Everywhere is spotlessly clean and the bathroom facilities are excellent (I've never been to a campsite where there is a corner bath!) The family rooms are brilliant having a bath, shower, loo and sink all in the same room.
The site itself is well spread out, so you don't feel on top of each other and there is a fantastic area in the middle of the camping field for children (and adults) to play football, cricket etc.
There are plenty of EHU and you are offered an extension (FOC), if your own hookup isn't long enough.
Being on the Wolds way, there are plenty of walks right from the site without having to drive anywhere, but it also perfectly placed to visit a lot of the east coast beaches, and tourist attractions in the vicinity.
The owners are extremely friendly and helpful and have a well stocked shop with essentials, as well as a few extras.
The washing up room is a large indoor (warm) area which also has a big fridge freezer, toaster and microwave, which are free to use. There is also a tea/coffee/hot chocolate machine which is £1. 00 per drink (very useful!)
My children, dog and I had a lovely time here and I can't honestly say there were any negative points that I could think of.
An absolutely fantastic site. The owners Derek & Carol are so friendly
And helpful. They also offer power extensions as a matter of course. A great child & dog friendly site and if you want to leave your dog for the day they offer secure kennels (although this wasn't something we used).
Full bathroom facilities including full baths! Fraithsthorpe beach is about 20 minutes away which is fantastic for dogs, also not far from Filey and Scarborough.
Really enjoyed our few days here catching up on some well needed R&R.
Highly recommend this site. Facilities were top notch and the owners were very pleasant and accommodating. Price for a night was more than reasonable and included electric hook up. We ended up staying an extra two nights as the kids were having such a good time. Camp sites don't get better than this.
Fifth time at Wolds way and really enjoyed our 11 nights here again. Site is great for us with plenty of room for our new tent, gazebo and car. Carol and Derek (owners) are lovely and very welcoming, Susan says thanks for the Wolds blonde beer, says we should get a trailer so we can bring some home with us next year :-) Toilets and showers cleaned daily, toilet rolls etc always available. Shop is open often enough for top ups. Del, caretaker, made sure we had an extension for our hook up and brought us bbq bricks when we asked even though the harvest was going on and he was very busy right into the evening. To be honest, he has helped us and our friends many times over the years and he is gem. Laundrette round the back was used again, shop stocks washing tabs for this. We can't say enough good things about this site with people we've met year after year travelling from as far as Essex, Norfolk, Wales and us from Scotland - says lots about how good this site is. Looking forward to visiting again next year, thanks again.
We have visited this site twice now because it is so nice.
We have a large tent and we don't use electric.
Because I am disabled we need a spot by the toilets. We got this for the normal non electric price and both times we stayed, they got us in there even though the site was busy, as it was the school holidays even though it was a late booking.
The site is large and is also a working farm.
The road on the way up to the site has been tarmacked but there is often loose stones on top of it. It is uphill on a long private single traffic lane to the site, but there are passing places.
The owners Derek and Carol are lovely and welcoming, nothing is too much bother for them. If they are free, they will open the shop for you, just give them a ring (there mobile numbers are on the shop door).
The bathroom facilities are great, there are three family bathrooms, one with a toilet and shower, one with a toilet, bath and shower and another one in the ladies which has a toilet and a bath.
There is also a accessible bathroom with a wide door, a wide shower and a toilet, it is not a wet room however it does have a shower chair.
The washing up facilities are great, they are inside in the warm, there are two sinks and drainers here, there is also a microwave and a fridge freezer which anyone can use. I do advise you to write your name and the dates of your stay on anything you put in it, it also dispenses ice. There is a hot drinks machine here you can use for a small charge. Around the back of this block is a pay to use washing machine and dryer but you need the correct change and washing detergent. There is another washing up sink here too.
The site is very flat apart from a small grass ramp to the toilets and other facilities, if you are in a scooter or wheelchair you can take the flat road route though.
There is a very nice children's play area with a wooden climbing frame, slide, etc. And a big field to play football, Frisbee etc.
The whole time we were here the facilities were kept scrupulously clean, I was very impressed.
There is so much to see and do in the surrounding area, we have been twice and still have not seen and done everything we want to. York is about 45 min to an hour away, Bridlington, Filey and Scarborough are even closer. It is a beautiful place, the North Yorkshire Moors are spectacular. There are lots of pubs and places to eat in Malton and Norton
This campsite is fabulous. The staff are friendly and welcoming! It has excellent facilities - including showers and washing machine. There's even microwaves! There's a kids play area as well and plenty of room for kids to play on their bikes. We had an electric hook-up and the site owners were kind enough to lend us an extra long hook up lead because ours was too short. They have wi-fi for a nominal charge if the kids really can't bear to be without gadgets! There's a shop on site selling basics and confectionery. Wolds Way lavender farm is well worth a visit and is practically next door. Flamingo land is less than 10 miles away and York is also nearby. Staff were available whenever we needed them and were very knowledgeable about the local area.
Situated on the A64 towards Scarborough just past Wolds Way Lavender. There are no signs to inform you off where the turning is until your right on top of it but it is there and plenty big enough when you find it. Ideally placed for trips into York, Scarborough, Whitby and surrounding areas. The drive upto the site is long and quite steep but fully tarmacked and room to pass other vehicles if you come across them. A nice addition are the family of wooden sheep at the entrance to the site that the kids loved every time we drove past them.
The site itself is very nice and well looked after and there is room for both caravans and tents. There seems to be a more of a pitch where you feel vibe to the site in regards to tents which was a bit disappointing for me but others may be fine with this arrangement. The field for tents was big enough and there was electric points available to use also. The point we were connected to also had water taps which didn't seem to work however there was another tap just a short walk away to use which was fine. This site is situated at a top of a hill so it got quite windy on occasions which made it a bit cold during the evenings but when the wind stopped it was very nice and the views were fantastic. There is a small playground for the children to use which was fine for my 4 and 2 year old but older children may get bored. The ground to the site is extremely hard and very difficult to peg normal tent pegs into. I was so glad I read other reviews and purchased some hard ground pegs. However I still managed to bend quite a few normal pegs once these had ran out!The amenities on site are again fantastic plenty of room in the shower blocks and plenty of hot water there was even a family room which made life easier with the the two boys. Adjacent to this there is also a washing up room with two sinks, double fridge/freezer, coffee machine and microwave again plenty of room in this and kept very tidy. Next to this is the site shop which is stocked with essentials and is reasonably priced. Around the site are wooden picnic tables available to use and enjoy the views and there even some quite nice walks dotted around to enjoy.
We found the owners to be very polite and welcoming and the site handyman was a very nice man and very helpful. Overall a very nice campsite and ideally situated.
Lovely site, beautifully located with breathtaking views. The owners were very polite and helpful, the amenities sparkling clean. Plenty of hot water in the showers, and the shower/toilet block was heated which was lovely. Fish n chip van comes on a Saturday. Access road is very narrow and quite steep, but fully tarmacked and quite smooth in most places. Turn off from A64 isnt marked until you are right on the turning so be wary of it. The field for tents was nice and level, we could pick our own spot as it was quiet. Hint - the ground is quite stony so bring strong tent pegs :). There is a small playground for children but I couldn't really see anything else for them to do, so they might get a bit bored.
Having recently purchased our first caravan finding a site that suited was of paramount importance. We wanted to remain at a site rather than tour and we also have our four legs to consider so a dog friendly site was of course a must. We have certainly found the perfect location at Wolds Way.
Set in magnificent countryside with gorgeous views Wolds Way is a bit of a hidden gem.
The site is easy to find directly off the A64 Scarborough road and the access road is fully tarmacked for an easy drive in, with regular access points for passing vehicles.
When we arrived we were helped on to our pitch a gesture we were most welcome of given we are complete newbies, going forward towing was challenging enough without having to mast reverse (ha ha). The site has everything you need. Excellent washroom facilities, clean, well kept with adequate hot water, toilet paper, hand towels and hand wash. The family bathrooms must be a god send for families with small children. The scenery is just breath taking and a perfect location for exploring the many walks through the woodland and meadows.
The many tourist attractions the area offers, the East Coast and Dolby Forest are all around a 30-40 minute drive. Near enough to be local but far enough away to have the rural, countryside feel away from the commercialisation of the larger 'Holiday Camp' style sites.
The well stocked shop is excellent and unlike some site the owners do not take advantage with the pricing, extremely reasonable and has everything you could possibly need (even Wi-Fi at a nominal charge). The touring rates are exceptionally reasonable as are the caravan storage.
The site is beautifully landscaped and well maintained. Even though the site was busy it was still tranquil as the pitches are well spaced with lots of wide open spaces to enjoy and evening stroll.
We cannot wait for a return visit and cannot recommend this site highly enough for a peaceful weekend retreat from the normal Monday to Friday 9-5.
