 A lovely site, very rural and peaceful, we spent our evenings watching the rabbits play just feet from the caravan. Extremely clean toilets and showers. Staff lovely and friendly. As it was a mid week stay we were able to choose our own pitch.

2 nights, tent, electric hook up. Arrived and booked in, paid price quoted then surprised to find electric included in the price so added bonus. Was advised our car may be too large to get round the bank into the camp field so lady from office told us to follow her. She walked in front of our car and guided us the easy way to the camp field and pointed out facilities on the way to us. Basically a guided tour. Whole tent field to ourselves. Told to just pitch wherever we wanted and told to enjoy our stay.
Toilets were well maintained and never had to queue for showers. Didn't try the local pub as we had eaten in town through the day so very full.
Parking was amazingly cheap in the town centre compared to where we lived. £1. 60 for 24hrs.
All in all a great stay but just one downside was no phone signal or internet so really are cut off. But that turned into a good thing for us because hubby is phone games obsessed and I actually got me time with him because of this so maybe don't fix this problem.
Great to be in the country side but yet so close to main shopping areas. The cows moo'ing, sheep bleating in the next field, the geese flying overhead and the owls hooting at night made us feel we really were in the wild. Will not hesitate to come back again when the weather warms up again.

What a lovely site. The lady was more than helpful, she explained that due to school holidays and lots of children and did we want a quiet spot but it was further away from the showers etc. We accepted and glad we did, I like kids but not at 10pm on an evening.
Facilities clean and well kept. Only 2 showers for the site but I never had to wait.
The pitches are so big you need not worry about next door. In fact there aren't pitches it is a v shape on the grass and you put your jockey wheel on that. Our dog loved the walks.
Would highly recommend this site.

Very basic site with only one toilet block consisting of two showers and four toilets which is not really adequate for a site this size. They were clean though. No hard standing for touring caravans either. Friendly people run the site but really need to improve as they were meant to send me a confirmation e-mail of my booking but didn't bother so I had to check myself. The also don't have a chip and pin facility so you have to pay by cash on arrival. The place where you clean your toilet units out is awful and needs to be improved. Great pub called the Guy Fawkes Inn about a mile up the road - fabulous food at reasonable prices but you do need to book as they are full every night.

We have just spent 4 nights here, the site was well kept and very clean, a lot of statics and seasonal pitches but we didn't feel out of place. The toilet and shower facilities are spotless though can be a bit cold getting showered as no heating in the block.
Really good sized pitches and a good dog walk area too.
Our children loved the play area, would definitely return here.

This is a lovely site which offers full amenities. There are lots of static vans but they are well laid out and the site is not overcrowded. Its important not to set up next to campers with dogs because there is a tendency for them to bark throughout the day. Lots of campers like to take their pets away with them and you expect some noise but when barking goes on and on for hours it aggravates. I would suggest the site stipulates owners respect other users and not to leave their pets on site whilst the owners go off site. Its a good place to explore this lovely part of England. I would recommend this site and I will return.

Visited King Fisher for 3 nights at the beginning of August, travelling with friends, we got allocated pitches next to each other even though we were in a motorhome and our friends in a tent. This is unusual but an added bonus as it saves running between fields to get chairs, plates, wine etc.
Our pitches were very spacious and we had no one in front of us which gave us great views over the lake. The dog walk is fantastic and gave us shelter from the sun as it was a very hot weekend.
The site showers are basic to look at but very clean and the shower was hot and powerful which I can say is not always the case from some of the 5 star sites I have visited in the past.
George the site manager very helpful and made our weekend very relaxing.
Location is great with so many local attractions to visit, a very beautiful part of world, would return to King Fisher again. Thank you for a great stay

We have just returned after a lovely weekend on this lovely peaceful site. The site is well cared for with spacious pitches, although a little uneven in places. The owners were very friendly on arrival but didn't see them again, just left us to get on with things. The toilet/shower facilities are kept clean, four toilets and two showers, no charge for showers. Hairdryer in ladies block 20p, although I couldn't get it to work. We had a taxi into knaresborough for a night out on saturday, £5. 00 each way, we thought very reasonable, We will certainly visit this site again, already recommended it.

Having gone through the electrically operated barrier, there are no signs on entering this site that tell you that there is a pull in for all new arrivals. As such we were held in a queue of vehicles waiting to get into the site, the driveway being blocked by a motor-home, the driver of which was as perplexed as the rest of us wondering just where the pull in was!
Having found reception, we were allowed to set uo more ior less where we wanted to.
We decided to stay down by the entrance to the lake.
On the plus side:
The ground is very level and the lake and the walk around it are well maintained. There is plenty of space between all of the vans.
Negative:
The road around the site is simply rough hardcore and full of potholes that constantly filled with rainwater. A word of warning though, be careful pulling water hogs and waste containers over the road. They could be easy to damage on this road surface.
There are no facilities for waste recycling, all rubbish goes into a big skip, paper, bottles, the lot.
The toilet and shower facilities are cleaned regularly and showers are hot, but we found them to be poor, being only 2 showers and toilets in the gents and similar for the ladies. As the campsite filled up over the weekend they were totally inadequate.
Hook up points are fixed to angle irons planted into the soil. Many of these were loose and appeared to be falling over.
In summary:
This site could be much better than it is with a little effort and some money spent on it. Unfortunately the surroundings are dull and unattractive, not a bloom in sight except for the statics. The roadway needs repair. The facilities are poor. Oh and you will have to like dogs. A lot of dogs.
Would we go back again? Not if there was an alternative, unless of course more money is spent to improve the site for the tourers. At the moment it's in favour of the statics.

Busy active site with Fishing and play park. Good location for Knaresborough and Harrogate.
Toilet block far too small for size of park. Toilets were basic port a cabin and not suitable for site of this size. Lots statics and seasonal pitches so Tourers feel second class in pitch location and space. We stayed over Easter and felt like we were fighting for space. In the end we left after 2 nights of 4 night stay.
