Date of Visit: August 2014 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Careersmummy 1 review from this member

 What a beautiful little campsite! We stayed here for two nights and it was just lovely. Fabulous little shop, very clean loo and shower. The little field was safe for the children who loved picking up the fallen apples, playing with the car and climbing the logs. The site was perfectly placed for our trip to York too - take the park and ride! The best thing was the stars at night whilst sat by the open fire pure bliss! Can't wait to come back!

 What a lovely place! Owners were away but we were still greeted by a very warm welcome! This site is great and extremely peaceful its a little gem if you want a relaxed time. With lots of nice touches communal firepit, bad weather shelter with kettle, radio and small fridge! Will definitely be back!

 This was our first time camping, and just wanted to go somewhere quiet and this ticked all the boxes. A nice clean field opposite a farm. A wonderful place, really lovely lady, and really tasty pies. The toilet and shower were very clean, in all it was just a really nice place to camp and we will certainly be going back.

 The owner treated us so well. Have the home made steak pie and peas, It is the beast. If you want a campsite that offers that personal touch then this is the one. My wife and I went away for the weekend and were made at home. York is not far away, but we decided to get the Bus. At £2.50 it was a great way to see the beautiful countryside. The people are very friendly and helpful. Wish I was still there. It is a working farm so they have chickens and cattle. I do not mind a cockerel in the morning, but some might. Overall a great time.

 We spent two nights here in August just after the bank holiday when we came up to visit York. We had a lovely time, the field only fits in six units and we had it to ourselves. It's ideally placed for York, the park and ride is ten minutes away. Colton is a picturesque little village with a pub (more of a restaurant than pub) and church. For takeaways and supermarkets you have a 5 minute drive into Copmanthorpe - you really don't have to leave the campsite for provisions though as the farm shop sells eggs, milk, bacon etc. Not to mention the sumptuous farm produced meat pies delivered to your tent by Angela - the owner, who was very welcoming.

The facilities are limited but the shower and toilet are the best we've had on a campsite. There is also a fridge for campers use and one sink to wash up in - you do have to boil a kettle for washing up which is a shame, a freezer block facility in the shop would be useful too. All in all though this is a little gem of a site, we loved the farm and the campfire and had a great stay and hope to come back again.

 Just got back from having yet another great time at Champs field, this is our 4th time here and hope it won't be the last. The owner was her usual bubbly self always helpful, nothing too much trouble, and of course the home made steak pies are something to die for, mmmm yummy. And delivered freshly baked to you van.

The weather was bitterly cold, but the welcome we received from the owner and her husband soon warmed us up, also not forgetting her mother in law, another lovely lady doing everything she could to make us very welcome, even collecting the fresh eggs for us to bring home.

We hope it will not be too long before we are there again, thanks to all the family, not forgetting their young son for making our stay very welcome

 This was our second visit to this lovely little site. Angela and her family were great hosts, fantastic place for a campfire. The site is about 15 mins to York a nice place for an afternoon visit then round the fire. Also on site a lovely tea room with good prices. The thing which gives this site the edge for us is the dry room to make a nice cup of coffee or just to sit in if weather not good. We will be returning and recommend.

 We stopped off at Champs Field, Home Farm, on our way up to Pickering, and what a lovely little site it is, the owners were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble. There is a nice little farm shop, toilet, shower, waste water and Elsan disposal unit and a wash up area. We also had a Colton minced steak [steak pies had all gone] and mushy peas, served at our pitch, and it was scrummy, would recommend this little gem to anyone, we enjoyed ourselves so much we stopped there on our way back, and will hopefully be stopping there again,

Thanks very much for your hospitality to all the family, you made us feel really welcome.

Reviewer: Duebel 2 reviews from this member

 Champs Field is on our list 'campsites-to-go-to-again' - everything is like it should be. Cosy and calm, simple and clean.

If there wasn't York to explore (take the bus to see a bit of the beautiful countryside), you wouldn't want to leave the campsite at all.

Delicious Pie and Peas delivered to our campervan, everything we need at the farmshop and, not to forget, the loveliest owner we've ever met.

 Campsite was very nice. Food from the farmshop was amazing. You have to give the Pie and Peas a try which get delivered to your tent, Very nice. Toilets and Shower facilities very good and nice and clean.

This is the first campsite I have stayed at where they have a communal campfire which I think more campsites should do as you get to know the other people who are camping there.

No need to take anything really apart from your tent and camping gear. You can buy almost anything from the farm shop including wood, logs and lots of delicious food.

The pub which is about a 2 minute walk away is very nice although a little pricey.

We had a walk into the Village which was just over 3 miles away. Word of warning though if you fancy a drink there don't go until 4p. M as the only pub in the village only opens at 4 p. M.

Although we didn't venture into york or the surrounding areas there are lots of places to go. Macdonalds is about a 5 minute drive away and Tesco is about the same.

We ordered a pizza on our last night which was delivered to the campsite and was very nice. If you ask at the farm shop they have takeaway menus.

We will definitely be returning. Great campsite, Owners very friendly. Great facilities.

If you are looking for somewhere with arcade machines and swimming pools and nightly entertainment then this is not the place for you. However if you are looking for somewhere to relax and enjoy the countryside then this is the place for you.
