 We stayed at Wolds Way for 6 nights. This is a gem of site, the facilities are first class and the owners have thought of everything which can make your stay here a lot easier.
There is a drinks machine in the washing up room so that when you arrive you can have drink if you need one, the price was 60p.
There are microwaves and toasters in the washing up room for campers to use, we had EHU so didn't use these but they are handy if you haven't got EHU. There is television for the children, great if it's raining. There are two sinks for washing pots and although the site was busy I think I only had to wait once.
The toilets and washrooms are new and clean and there are family bathroom and shower rooms which made showering my children easier. They are cleaned regularly and we never had to queue.
The playground is great for the children and there is also a small animal petting area with sheep, chickens and ducks.
The views from the site are amazing and it's so quiet no traffic noise at all. It's easy to find just off the A64.
The little site shop is handy for the essentials, we shopped at a little Sainsburys in Malton itself for other things we needed.
We visited York, parking at the Monks Cross Park and Ride. We also visited Filey, the beach there is lovely and great for children to play on. The resort is pretty quiet so anyone wanting a resort bigger and busier should probably go to Scarborough.
We also visted the Eden Camp War Museum, and Wolds Way Lavender which is just next door to the site.
Something to take into consideration if travelling up on the A64 the traffic at times can be very heavy and we got stuck in jam which added an hour on to our journey. This was on a Saturday at the end of July but when we were coming home the following Friday it didn't look much better!
Overall I would say this is one of the nicest site we've stayed on and would definitely return if visiting the area again.

We've just returned from a weekend at the Wolds Way. I thought it was a nice campsite with plenty of space for the kids to play in the centre of the tent field.
The 4 men's showers were OK - plenty of hot water, and not huge space available in the shower but fine really. It would have been nice to have a bigger lobby area with a seat to put things on as the available hooks in the lobby filled up quickly.
The mens toilets were a bit whiffy (and I'm told that so were the women's) so these could perhaps do with a little more attention.
The kids play area was great for my 2 girls (10 and 5) and my 14 year old son played football on the field.
We had an electrical Hook up which was great.
The shop was really good value (e. G. 90p for 2 pints milk) and we were allowed to put a gooey chocolate birthday cake into the shop fridge to stop it melting in the tent (Thank you)
It's a short drive to the coast - we went to Whitby, which was about 45 mins, but this wasn't the closest bit of coast.
We didn't really have the time or the weather to enjoy the site or area as much as we would have wished so may well be coming back to this area again.

We have just returned from a long weekend at Wolds Way. After reading the reviews on here we were really looking forward to the fantastic facilities we had read about. However, we have arrived home somewhat disappointed.
The site was very full with a mixture of tourer caravans and tents. On an evening the site was still very noisy right up to 11. 30pm.
The facilities were the biggest disappointment - the toilets were very smelly and were not cleaned as regularly as they should have been at such a busy time.
The showers were mostly broken or blocked to overflowing. Cleaning equipment which was available to do a 'quick mop up' after yourself was very poor. There were no hair dryers in the shower area (these are essential when in a non-electrical hook up tent as it is cold on a evening after showering).
The day we arrived it was very wet and we used the tumble dryer (£1 for 30mins) but our clothes were not much dryer £3 later.
The site staff were very friendly and helpful if you were an adult but seemed to have a few issues with the children on the site. The play area is small but fine for younger children. As the site was full the space was limited for the older children who wanted to play football.
Our children aged 10, 12 & 13 called into the shop to ask about the lamb feeding but were asked to 'leave' as they had no money to buy food to feed the lambs.
On a positive note - the views were fantastic and the location good for reaching the East coast. The shop was good and not too expensive.
I think this site is ideal for people with touring caravans - however we will not be returning to sleep under canvas. If the facilities had a makeover and were kept clean then this would be as good as previous reviews but alas it was not to be!

We have just spend three nights at this campsite and booked it after reading the fab reviews. We had a tent pitch without eletric. Our overall impression is that this site is over rated.
The good points:
There is no road noise
There is a well stocked shop
The washing up facilities are undercover
The views are great
The site is well placed for the east coast or if you fancy working.
The bits we did not like
The facilities were modern but some of the showers were broken and not always warm.
The facilities were not cleaned during our stay they were only cleaned when we were leaving. A bit annoying when this is the last place you visit before leaving.
There is a lack of bins and water points.
We have been to many campsites and there has always been a hair dryer. Not at this site. I don, t want one for vanity reasons but it does get cold when you and young children are walking across the field with wet hair.
It seems that the site caters more for caravans and that it what the owners are interested in.
We were disappointed after reading so many reviews and did wonder whether it was just us, however speaking to others it seems that they too were also of the same opinion.

My Family and I have just spent a fantastic weekend at this site. From the moment we arrived and was shown to our pitch by friendly and helpful staff, we settled right in.
The shower and toilet block were excellent and well maintained and the family room had a fridge freezer, 3 microwaves and a coffee machine for people to use.
The site itself had stunning views and the kids loved feeding the farm animals.
As has been mentioned in previous reviews is the use of rock pegs, I would agree with this and was very glad I had bought some specifically for this trip.
All in all we had a brilliant time and will definitely be coming back

Have had another two week stay at Wolds Way and thoroughly enjoyed our holiday. Once again everything was clean, lovely constant hot water and very reasonably priced shop all run by friendly and hard working staff and owners.
We chose to go on the campers section this year where we met a group of disadvantaged young people having a short break with their leaders.
The young ones were polite and well mannered and it was obvious their group leaders were caring people who did a really good job in keeping everyone busy and occupied because the weather was bad.
There were some wet days during our first week so we didn't go far but it was nice to watch parents playing ball games and bike riding with their children.
Our second week was brighter so we did our touring then. This site is central for so many places.
If we are not back again next year then it is only because our family want us to go south with them for a change.

This campsite was fantastic! Owner was very helpful, he gave us our pitch but electric hook up was to short so we asked for a pitch closer, which he had no problem with.
Also, our car battery was dead so he lent us jump leads.
Toilets very clean and also a bath which was great for the kids. Was quite windy as it was on top of a hill.
Lovely bike riding baths just by the campsite including mabie forest and dalby.
A little park for the kids, also not far away from flamingo land. Very quiet on night time, couldn't fault this campsite, worth the money.

Just back from a lovely (but very, very wet) weekend at this great site.
This was our first return to camping after about 4 years off and we were pleasantly surprised by the facilities on offer - family bathrooms and easy access bathrooms, a family room with microwaves and toasters all kept clean and tidy by the excellent staff.
Well kept, clean & tidy site, dog walk by the side of the site (part of the Wolds Way for those feeling more energetic) only slightly let down by some noisy people on the Saturday night (despite the 11pm quiet rule).
Definitely would go back again.

We (me, hubby, and kids 14, 12 and 9)have just returned from the best weekend of camping we have ever had the place is simply stunning.
The showers are hot and clean, the shop and reception area well stocked. The staff are helpful an friendly and welcoming.
The area is packed with loads of stuff to do, if you want, but we found a lot of plans went out the window as the kids wanted to stay and feed the lambs and explore the site !
The area is well known to us anyway so that was fine buy us. Just one word of warning the ground is rock hard so take plenty of rock pegs as the normal ones you get with the tent just wouldn't go in, however that wouldn't stop us going again, in fact try stopping us!

Just returned from a great week at this campsite. We arrived on Bank Holiday Monday and although busy, there was space for our large tent. The site is very easy to access, being just off the A64, but was very quiet with no road noise due to the fact it was about 1 mile down an access road.
My children loved the play park and spent many hours exploring the campsite. The tents were positioned around the around side edge of the field leaving space in the middle for ball games.
My 7 year old loved being able to help feed the lambs.
Very well positioned to explore the surrounding area, being about 20 minutes from the East Coast and 15 minutes from Eden Camp and about 30 minutes from York.
The on-site shop was well stocked and reasonably priced.
The shower/toilet facilities were always clean and well maintained. Even though we stayed there over May half term, and the site was almost full, we didn't have to wait for the toilets and showers. Very impressed that there were baths and disabled showers.
My only criticism is that the easy access bathroom had a step into the shower so might prove difficult for some people.
The dishwashing facilities were great. Limitless hot water. There was also a fridge/freezer for campers use. Also available was a TV and freeview box and a microwave. There are laundry facilities too, but we didn't need to use them.
Nothing seems to be too much trouble for the owners and staff. Whilst we were there, they helped to move caravans around and jump start a car. They even provided directions when the route home was blocked.
It is a very popular site and I can see why! My children can't wait to return.

We stayed here for 3 nights at the end of the half term holidays. This was our second camping trip and we were very lucky with the weather once again lots of sun shine!
The site is lovely and clean, with a great atmosphere. We didn't ever have to queue for shower/toilets and the 3 baths are great for family's with young kids.
The kids fell in love with the lambs, and both had a turn at feeding them!
The site location is great as only 30 mins from the coast, and other attractions are much closer too.
We didn't cook our own meals this time and used the local pubs, we went about 5. 30 and they where never busy.
Wish we could have stayed longer!
The washing up room is very warm and free use of microwaves, freezer, fridge and TV.

We visited this fantastic site in june for a friday to sunday break with our kids and their cousins, aunties and uncles and I can honestly say this is one of my favourite sites so far!
I am relatively new to camping (this is only my second year camping and this was my first time taking the kids) but of the sites I have seen so far this is by far the best one.
I will start with the all important toilets/showers, in a word, brilliant. Very clean and spacious with a family bathroom, excellent for cleaning the kids with loads of room outside the bath too + a toilet.
There are various family showers all with their own toilet and on top of that are a male and female toilet blocks with lots of toilet stalls as well as individual showers so never any queues and the water was very hot and powerful too all in a purpose built building.
Next the kitchen/family room, again spotless. Had a fridge, kettle, microwave, toaster and tv for the campers to use with 2 sinks for washing up all indoors which was nice (nothing worse than standing in the rain waiting to wash up in an outdoor sink!).
There was a nice little shop on site to which is where you book in when you arrive, reasonably priced too.
Now the site itself, really well looked after with lots of open space to play and a nice little wood built climbing frame for the kids too, views were stunning too in all directions and not a bit of noise too, you come off the main road and travel about a mile up through the fields on a tarmac path so there was no worries of the kids wandering into the road too.
We had electric hook ups for all 3 of our tents.
The people who run the site are so friendly and helpful too when we arrived the warden came up to meet us and took us to our pitch and asked if it was suitable for us which it was, always on hand to help and in the morning and evening he would come around to see if the kids would like to feed the farm animals, this was a big hit with our kids. They have a little petting area nearby with sheep chickens and cows that you can stroke and feed.
There are some nice walks in the surrounding area too with maps available for free in the site shop. We chose this site initially because we were going to flamingo land 8 miles away on the saturday but I will use this site over and over again even if not visiting the theme park.
It is only a short drive to scarbourogh in one direction and york in the other and whitby is 45 minutes away and 5 minutes up the road is the eden camp a second word war museum.
There is a mobile fish and chip van which visits the site and stays for a while on an evening and the food was lovely another bonus!
One negative and this may have only been on my pitch but about 3-4 inches under the soil seemed to be solid rock and I had great difficulty getting my tent pegs in and bent just about everyone! no matter where on our pitch I moved it was the same but like I said this may have just been on my pitch I didn't ask anyone else if they had any problems on the site.
Other than this the pitches were very generous and level too. This little negative although frustrating did not spoil our stay at all. We loved this site and not once did we hear the dreaded dad, mam we are bored from the kids! Cant wait to get back there next year and will be staying longer next time too.

Fabulous site! A warm and friendly welcome from the owners. We were guided to our pitch on arrival which was much appreciated.
* Excellent value for money.
* The toilet block is very clean and fairly new. Also there are two family rooms (one with disable access).
* The pitches are evenly spread out so you have plenty of room for both unit and car.
* The little farm is great for young kids. We were also lucky enough to see the little lambs.
* The on site shop is very well stocked and the Fish n Chip van on a Saturday is really handy if your too tired to cook!
Can't fault this site, its pitch perfect! Can't wait to return.

Enjoyed a 3 night stay at site. Facilities were all in great order, showers & toilet block clean and modern with free use of fridge, tv and microwaves.
Site shop has a limited range though you are within driving distance of supermarkets in Malton and Scarborough. Nearest pub is a couple of miles away. Visits to Eden Camp, Helmsley Castle, Dalby Forest, Flamingoland a.Re all within easy reach
The site is located on top of the wolds in a fairly exposed location, which could be an issue in windy conditions - great for walking and bike riding though. Owners have on site kennel facilities should you wish to leave your dog on site.
If camping advise taking rock pegs due to chalk in fields.
Will definitely return

What a beautiful site.The facilities are first class.We have been before but took some 'newby' camping friends so had to go somewhere we knew was nice.
Our friends were very impressed and are now converted they cant wait to buy a tent. The owner and warden were great letting us know when the children could bottle feed the lambs.
The weather was so hot so the freezer for our ice packs was greatly appreciated (don't like warm beer!)
The shop is well stocked and a fish+chip van came on sat night.All in all we will go again its a little beauty !
