 Found site easily with postcode.
Wednesday was wardens day off but he was still there to show us our pitch paid next day.
Warden and wife very friendly was expecting an ogre from some reviews but was nice.
Warden said pitch was tight, but fine for motorhome and awning. L lovely people. Very friendly, lake decent for fishing.
Nice big toilet and shower block male and female two showers each plenty of toilets, very clean. Washing up area 3 sinks, laundry area, pleasant site, dog walking area, and common over the road from site, only downside not any bins on site or for doggy bags on dog walk part. Train track right next to site but didn't bother me run from 7. 30 till 10. 15 on whole would definitely go back

We stayed here for 6 nights. The Wardens are very friendly and helpful. The fishing was very good, with loads of pegs to choose from. I found some very decent carp only a foot from the bank, and they put up a good fight when caught. As for the site itself, we found it a bit regimental ( as to parking your van) but it seemed not all obeyed the 6m distance rule. If you need Internet, you have to ask the wardens for the password, as it was not offered to us on arrival. ( no problem for us though ). Great area to explore, not far from ' Heartbeat ' country, and Whitby. One warning, if you are towing a caravan beware of the turning, as the sign is hidden by the trees. ( as you go along the road, the army barracks on your right, the site entrance is just BEFORE a cattle grid. ).
A nice site worth a visit. Railway line next door but not a problem.

Lovely adult only site, ken and kim are always helpful. The showers need updating a bit past there best. If you like fishing this is the place to be. We do not fish but it is easy to get to monks cross and york. The trains run right next to the site but the last one is at approx 10. 40pm so you can still sleep.
All in all a good quiet site. Be aware when it rains the site can get boggy.

Our 3rd visit to moorside in june for 10 nights was just fab!
As usual ken and kim the wardens were very friendly and ken sorted us a pitch suitable for our needs. (you can book up but with the site being so popular with the regulars they cant allocate you a pitch)(if you have a twin axle van. Let them know when you book!)
The facilities are spot on! the reviews with complaints are probably from people who have stayed at 'plastic holiday parks'. (no-one dressed as a bear or a dog here!)
It is an adult only site so no screaming kids running round or riding bikes or kicking balls at your caravan!.
The fishing is great! I was catching carp none stop barring one day when they ware spawning.
Some of the older guys were fishing for bream and their action was none stop!
The toilets are very clean, the dish wash area has 3 sinks, the launderette is reasonable cost.
Locally the village has 2 nice pubs, a small supermarket and a chippy.
Venture further out and there is all you want at clifton moor or monks cross in york.
If you fancy a belly busting meal, goto huckleberrys american diner on the A64!
There is a caravan shop on the A64 too if you need chemicals or spares, 10 mins drive from the site.
The only downside to the site is the rail track running down the back of it, but you don't seem to hear the trains after the 4th or 5th one!
The site does get busy on weekends! if you are going for fishing on a weekend, you need to be up early if you want a certain peg!, I was there 2 weekends and managed to get a peg at 11am every day, there are plenty to go round!
If you want to fish for silvers then pegs near lakeside vans are best, if you are after carp the pegs over the other side and nearest the road are better.
My biggest carp was 16lb on the pole from the margins on peg 16!
An ice cream van and a butchers van come round on Friday and Saturday night, the butcher will cut you chops of meat as you want and his pork sausages are to die for! so you must have BBQ nights fri & sat!
The site have free WiFi but its not very good if you are at the far end of the site. If you are using mobile internet check your coverage, I'm on EE and it was a bit hit and miss at times, EE say the area is good for 3G but as I say it was a bit hit n miss for me.
The grounds are very well kept! when a van moves off, ken jumps on his lawn mower and trims the grass around the area, they were laying paving for hard stand parking on the far end pitches when we were there and laying some hard stand pitches near the dish wash area.
So to me they are constantly improving the site!
I went with my wife and our dog, along with my wife's mum and dad in 2 caravans, we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be returning there very soon!

We visited Moorside caravan park this July 2015
Entering the site is a bit tight, Warden on hand to help you park your caravan in the correct place.
Toilets spotless, showers spotless, limited facilities,
A beautiful fishing lake with special plants all along side the lakeside.
Dogs are allowed on site but not next to the lake. As they may tred on the plants. The warden told us that he does not want any dogs releiving themselves near the pond or near his plants. As this could bring other unwanted dogs to the site. Which he has a fair point.
Fishing was good. However please make sure you only take a little seat as the space is only narrow on your peg. No fishing tackle near any of the plants including you rod. As you may knock his precious plants.
For anglers who can fish with no disabilities was great, however the disabled angler will be questioned on their ability to fish.
Shopping for the ladies is good with monkscross near by.
My overhall impression of the site was too clicky

When arriving at this site keep your eyes peeled as the site only has a small sign at the entrance and this was part covered by over hanging trees.
The site is flat and very well kept, the warden and owners were very friendly and helpful as you would hope.
The facilities are dated but very clean and well kept, their is a rail line that runs by the site, however this was not a problem as the trains pass the site in a matter of seconds, the longest train being three carriages long.
Their is a foot path that leads out of the site but crosses the track (so beware) that leads into Strensall.
The fishing lake is the focal point and very well looked after, if you like something unusual wait until you catch a bream here, they think their dolphins or sailfish, as they leap out of the water.
We will be going back in the near future.

Lovely quiet site. The owners are really friendly and helpful, showers a bit dated but clean and tidy. The whole site is tidy and very friendly. Be aware of the trains can be noisy but the stop running at 11pm so a good nights sleep is always had. Good for fishing if you like. Try to stay away from trees is you want a good tv reception. A good site for getting about, monks cross has a park and ride for york.

Nice site, well kept, owners very helpful and friendly, just make sure you don't pitch next to the railway line, its very noisy if you are like us and enjoy the peace and quiet.
Facilities are clean and well done for thinking of a chair in the ladies showers. Nice to sit down and dry the feet. Showers are very big compared to some we have visited and a shelf for shampoo etc. We enjoyed a couple of days just chilling in lovely weather.
Got the bus in to York on one day which was nice. Well done to you both.

Stayed for 2 days, lovely quiet site, adults only which is great. Really clean and tidy, ken and kim the managers are very helpful and will sort you out. If possible they will let you choose a pitch that suits you. Showers and toilets always kept clean and tidy. Fish and chip van comes on sat but not until 8pm which was a little bit late for us. The butcher comes on friday which is good if you don't want to go off site. Strensall village is only a short walk away and has plenty of small shops for all your provisions.
Booked again for sept for 3 nights. Looking forward to that.

This is one of our favourite sites. Wardens are helpful and friendly, the toilets/showers are always clean and re-plenished with supplies.
This is an adult only site and is very friendly and tranquil. The lake is tree-lined with beautiful willows there is benches for people to sit and watch the fishermen around the lake.
You can leave the car on site and take a 20 min walk into strensil village where you can catch a bus into York.
You can hear the trains when they pass the site, but there is no traffic noise from the roads.
A mobile butchers and fish & chip van come on site certain nights
