 This is an adults only site with 5 CL pitches at the front nearest the road and the commercial site further back after the farm shop. There are 10 touring pitches the rest are seasonal. We stayed in the commercial side and were very pleased. I have a disability and asked if I could have a pitch as near to the shower/toilets as poss. I was given pitch 5 or 6 but on arrival was given pitch 1 as the seasonal holder had taken their van away for a week. It was perfect. Very friendly staff on the site and in the farm shop/cafe where you could get lovely snacks or full meals. The shop is well stocked. We're novice caravanners and got great support from people staying on seasonal pitches who said we all help one another here. Made to feel very welcome. The site is clean and the grass well tended. 5 mins by car into city centre yet you feel as though you are in the heart of the countryside. My one gripe and I hate to complain about this lovely site it that the showers are wet-rooms that got very wet and there is nowhere dry to dress. For me this is difficult as being disabled I can't dress standing up, my clothes would get very wet so I had to go back in my nightwear. There is a disabled shower near reception but this is a long way away and apart from grab rails it was the same so I couldn't have used it anyway. For everyone else I think the showers would be fine. I can highly recommend this site. This is the only reason I give it 9/10 otherwise it would be 10.

Stayed for the weekend Friday to Sunday on the touring side through the security barrier, the pitches are level and all hard standing for the van with grass at the side for an awning. There is a water tap on every hook up board and the waste water and chemical disposal is behind the new shower block which if pitched down the far end of the site would be a 300 yard slog so pitch near the shower block. The new shower blocks are not completed so had to walk to the reception area for a shower but they look very nice, there were 2 working toilets though. The shower was 50p for 10 minutes and was hot and the reception one had 2 showers in the male block, the new block will have 4 and we were told they will be free when completed.
The site itself is peaceful and well kept and has a dog walking circuit on the end around 2 duck ponds. At the end of the site there is a gate leading to the beck with a footpath leading to Wigginton about a mile away and Haxby 1. 5 miles away with a woodland walk and open fields for dog exercising. Well placed for visits to York and surrounding areas and will return once shower blocks are finished.

Just had 3 lovely nights on the CL part of the site, greeted warmly by one of the owners, who took time to explain everything to us.
Well spaced pitches, amenities spotless and cleaned regular, 50p shower for 10 minutes ample time.
Brilliant dog walk on site which led to a lovely stream and big field on one side and a wooded walk on the other.
The only downside was the CL part was quite close to the busy road and there was some traffic noise.
We were informed there was an hourly bus service to York, and there is a Tesco direct on a busy retail park only 10 mins drive away.

Hired motorhome for birthday treat. Absolute luxury compared to our usual tent camping! Have camped in and around York before but first time at Willow House. It is ideally situated for 10 minute bus ride to York city centre.
The site is very well maintained and all pitches are away from the busy main road making it very quiet. Spotless modern showers and toilets although I understand previous comments about these being a fair walk from tent pitches. Would not be be sufficient to put me off however.
The warden was friendly and helpful and at £16 per night, this site is a bargain! Lovely farm shop with cafe/restaurant on site. Would definitely recommend and return.

We stayed on the CL part of the site but the facilities are shared with the commercial site which we did walk round.
The CL area was good with five well spaced pitches (which seemed to expand to 6 during our stay as someone 'extra' arrived).
The main site looked OK but, as someone has already mentioned, although the site looked full the majority of the caravans were unattended.
The warden was very pleasant and helpful and, whilst the toilets/showers were clean, there were not enough of them to serve the whole site had there been more people there. The showers were 50p a time and, in the ladies, only one of the two were working.
The site is convenient for York with the park & ride a couple of roundabouts away (we would have walked to it but the road is dangerous with no footpath) and a large Tescos is also nearby so, overall a well placed site.
The lake looked a little sad during our stay with the water level very low due to the lack of rain previously.
Out the back of the site you can take a pleasant walk along the stream bank in either direction.

Just had a lovely weekend at Willow House. Very peaceful, apart from the early morning arguments among the ducks! The facilities were as always spotless, if a little far away from the tent area. (Toilet visits need to be planned well in advance!)
The washing up facilities for the tent fraternity could be expanded a little, as there is only one sink, and after the long journey down the site it is a bit frustrating to have to queue!
The farm shop is really handy, especially for basics such as milk and bread, and gets quite busy on a weekend.
We must make a point of booking early next year so we can get a space in the CL area.

Site has a CC CL area which was fully booked (we are not CC members anyway) so a full service pitch was provided on the 'commercial' section of the site. Wardens extremely welcoming and informative. Local bus service from site entrance. About 10 mins (possibly less) to city centre. Absolutely clinical facilities on an adults only level site that is impeccably kept, looking good even in winter but looking as if it will be stunning in summer.
Large retail parks within minutes of site. Farm Shop on site worth a look but reasonably priced Sunday roast lunch is great value.

Brilliant site,level bases, decent mains hook up and water supply, great pleasant and helpful staff. Toilets and showers were in fantastic order. There is a great little cafe/shop on site where you can get your essentials and something decent to eat. When we where there they had two reindeer in the front field to add that Christmas feel. It is a few miles in to York city it's self but there is a bus stop outside the campsite, we got a local taxi and it cost four of us £7.00 there and £9.50 back. Would highly recommend this site. Me and er indoors will be going back.

Our first visit to this site. We found the bus service into York very convenient and the walk down the drive to the bus stop enhanced by watching mother duck with ducklings and a chat to the two reindeer.
No sign yet of a new toilet block for the hard standing field, so a fair walk for those at the far end, but existing facilities very clean.
Site very quiet during the day, but we too were annoyed by the kennelled dogs barking every time someone walked down to the toilets during the evening.
Farm shop very good, with gifts etc plus a coffee shop.

Have just spent a weekend at Willow Farm. On arrival found the lady warden very welcoming and friendly. We were 2 adults and a tourer. The pitch was good. Excellent hardstanding and a good flat grassed area. There was no toilet paper in the ladies and the toilet blocks weren't cleaned the whole weekend from Friday to Sunday. The 'new' toilet block has been abandoned.
We also noticed that no bins on the campsite were emptied at all at the weekend.
Apart from when we arrived we didn't see the wardens at all.
As we paid £18 per night we thought it was expensive for such poor amenities.
We had a meal at a nearby pub The Black Horse. It had been recommended by the warden and it was fantastic. All home cooked food and very inexpensive. Very busy on Saturday evening so you may want to book.
