 Great site to stay at. Great welcome at reception, taken to pitch by site warden who was very helpful. Toilets and showers clean and warm! Pub on site with good food and on-site outdoor heated pool. Ideal base for exploring Yorkshire Dales and local attractions such as Betty's in Harrogate, Brimham Rocks, Bolton Abbey, Will definitely be using this site again.

 I went he with my 2 girlfriends and are children ages from 8 to 14.

On arrival we were checked in very quickly. We were told to wait for the security man who showed us to are pitch. First impressions the park is lovely clean and very child and dog friendly. We only stayed for 2 nights but wished we had come for longer. We didn't see the children they played safety at the park. There is a pub which we didn't get chance to use. There's also a swimming pool but children under 10 need supervising also you do have to pay and you get 90 mins.

The location of campsite is perfect. There is a supermarket about 10 mins away. On site there's a little shop the ladies are lovely. We went to York maize which is a bit far but Brimham Rocks is close and is a really good day out.

The washroom facilities are one of the best we have been to, there's even a bath. There's 2 washing up facilities. There are more than one toilet and washing facilities.

Must stay these security man on site is excellent and is very helpful and funny.

We would definitely be going back.

 A very well kept site. Some of the pitches are a bit close together but the toilet/showers are kept spotless.

Very friendly staff, the only criticism I had was the bar food prices are quite steep.

There are plenty of places for the kids to let off steam without them annoying other campers.

I would return.

 Just returned from Rudding Park and have to say was very disappointed with this site. On booking was not told that ALL facilities would be closed even the pub closed at five o clock on new years day and does not open again until March. It seems that all they are bothered with are their seasonal people. At the price we paid would certainly not visit again and having spoken to other caravanners I don't think we will be alone.

Reviewer: J55ptk 8 reviews from this member

 We have stayed twice in the last 2 months. It is on the expensive side but we think it is well worth the money. The place is very clean and tidy and the staff are friendly and very efficient. The kids love playing out and the site is safe and secure. The facilities are warm and spotless, a credit to the cleaning staff. The only slight criticism is the meal we had in the on site pub. A really bad meal but please don't let this tiny problem put you off.

We will be back next year, probably more than once.

Reviewer: Babs157 4 reviews from this member

 Having stumbled across it quite by accident we were happy to find a lovely tent site at Rudding Holiday Park. After a very warm welcome we were escorted to the tent pitches. A nice even site with not too many stones in the ground and a lovely view over the field towards the golf course. The toilet and shower facilities were kept very clean and it was good to have enough space for your clean clothes and toiletries behind a partition were everything stayed dry rather than the plastic chair contraptions with no protection from the water of other camp grounds we stayed at during our holiday. The only remotely negative thing we can say about our stay is that with the hotel guests and, presumably, the golfers passing through a nearby gate, it was a bit noisy at times. Since this was only in the evening, it really did not matter. Very helpful tips from the reception staff helped us find our way around Yorkshire and Harrogate and so we extended our stay to four nights instead of the one or two we had planned. We would definitely stay there again and can recommend it to fellow campers.

 Just spent a great weekend at Rudding Park, came straight home and booked for next weekend! The site is highly maintained and our grass pitch was a good size with plenty of room for the caravan, awning and car without being cramped in. The facilities are clean and well maintained and we enjoyed feeding the ducks at the pond. No problem whatsoever with noise at night and we were in the busiest part of the park. The pub is nice and we enjoyed playing the quiz on Saturday night. There is a dog run that is fenced off on all sides in the middle of the park, no walking miles to find a dog run it right there for you! Close to Knaresborough, Harrogate and York.

Reviewer: Blakes7minus2 4 reviews from this member

 Spent 3 nights here at the beginnning of the school holidays, our 2nd campsite so not a lot to compare too.

* Pitches felt a little on the small size even thought we had given the tent size on booking.

* Tents pitched on both sides of road, can be alongside caravans and motorhomes - this was a first and unexpected.

* Toilet and shower blocks were kept clean.

* Washing up facilities were limited and one better than the other (shared tap at one and not much space).

* Play areas limited and a long way from our pitch.

* Swimming pool had a cost of £3. 50pp per 90 minutes session. It was very busy to the point of being too busy, plus people were allowed in even though they hadn't booked.

* Great pond for feeding the ducks on site.

* Food on offer at the pub was vert good and reasonable priced, the staff were very happy to adapt to my children's fussyness.

* Great location with lots around the area to do and loads of places to visit.

 Spent 10 nights at this sight. Great location for touring around as very close to Harrogate, York and Leeds. We had a large corner pitch which was fantastic for our large tent. Great dog walk. Sainsburys very close.

Pros - Friendly, helpful staff. Good location. Nice pool and playpark for children. Toilet facilities adequate but not when busy.

Cons - Noise policy at night not enforced at all. Close to golf club which when competitions being held woken at 6. 30am with tannoy announcements every 15 mins of who is on the tee! Music from hotel kept kids awake. Large groups allowed to make as much noise and mess as they wanted!

Reviewer: Claireme 1 review from this member

 We stayed in one of the chalets available at the park and have a lovely experience. It was well equipped and comfortable, we had a baby son and dog with us and all slept well, for a large site the evenings were very peaceful. We were very impressed with the staff and there attention to detail and how welcoming they made us feel. The swimming pool was a highlight and great fun! We liked the stay so much we booked again immediately!.

Would definitely recommend this site, the mature trees and grounds make the park feel really special. The shop is well stocked although not open when we visited there's an on site pub, there's also a children's playground. Overall a great stay.

Date of Visit: July 2014 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Swansong21 2 reviews from this member

 Stayed here for the Tour De France weekend - 4 nights. Great welcome from the reception and Mark the warden. Accompanied to the pitch and all amenities explained. Although the site was full didn't experience any of the issues others have; parking at the restaurant was open, no trestle tables, food was fine, no issues. Did witness quite fast driving on the site but not by staff. Not too enamoured with having to book the quite empty pool and pay £3. 50 for the privilege tho'-my girls tend to swim every day and that could have been expensive if we hadn't been tour-watching!

Overall would recommend this site.

Reviewer: Europa390 19 reviews from this member

 We came away rather disappointed. Too many niggles which spoiled what might have been a good five nights.

Pros: We had a big pitch and the site was clean and tidy.

It was convenient for Harrogate and York and our grandchildren.

Reception was pleasant.

Cons: We rejected the first pitch we were offered as it had great big patches of bare soil on it that had just been reseeded. If we had stayed on it, it would have been a mud bath by the end of our stay.

It would have been good to know during the booking process, that during our stay there were going to be two huge events in a nearby marquee. We found out after we arrived and it was too late to change. We were kept awake by the music and the guests.

We didn't like the way people with dogs just walked them around the site, allowing them to urinate and defecate at will.

We didn't like the uncontrolled speed with which people drove around the site. Some of the worst offenders were the staff.

The grass hadn't been cut for ages, it was very wet while we were there so not possible but by then it was already far too long. I thought we would have well trimmed pitches not a near grass field.

Work on a nearby construction site woke us at 6. 15am with the noise of excavators and other machinery.

The shop was rather feeble.

Reviewer: K17Shaw 4 reviews from this member

 This is the first time I have came here and you are greeted to a warm welcome by the staff and the warden. There is a shop that sells the basic needs for camping and the everyday food you need however there is a sainsbury's close and the mini mart sells hook ups which the camp site doesn't provide. The campsite is quite small and can fit about 100-200 tents or caravans. The pub there is modern and is nice. The pool wasn't open as it is only open in the summer. It looks nice and has two parks for kids to play with. There are some football nets and a basketball net. The toilets are clean and the showers are good. There is a small area for dogs and there are many paths and fields.

I would recommend this campsite to anyone and there are many attractions around including 2 theme parks and a place which involves the national trust.

 Only stayed one night as we were going into harrogate for an event. A very nice site. Toilet block very clean and warm. Good pitch with water hook up and drain. What I would like to mention was the duty warden who dealt with us on arrival as we were late, she took us to our pitch explained what we needed to know, made us feel very welcome and even sorted a taxi into town for us. We will be going back but for longer next time. Thanks.

Reviewer: Raydot111 1 review from this member

 From the moment the first telephone call was made to book a pitch, we had great service. On arriving at the site we were welcomed with details of site etc. And escorted to our fully serviced pitch, which was good size, well situated and clean. We had a great week, weather was good for us to visit surrounding places of interest. As no children with us, we never visited the playground, but it looked great for children. A meal in the pub was very nice with good service. We will definitely use this site again.
