 Lovely site and can't wait to properly review in September on our return visit.
On arrival went to reception and got the feel of a very structured campsite, it is but very relaxed at the same time we could pitch where we wanted and felt very relaxed and not at all enclosed.
There are lots of ducks who become honorary pets for the stay and that made us laugh. We only stayed for one night and should have stopped longer but chest infections and camping don't mix( it just appeared from nowhere over night), which is a shame, neither does telling the reception manager that the place is gorgeous and it's not the campsite through tears because we didn't want to leave.
Will review again in September and say how good it is.

I have mixed thoughts about Rudding Park. During peak season it's quite expensive and I think you could stay at better sites that are more reasonably priced. The kids love Rudding Park as they are safe to go off on adventures.
We had come away with four other families for our children's birthdays so didn't venture away from the site. We were all pitched quite close together and the area of grass that we were given was supposed to fit 7 tents on! (not the largest of areas) The site is clean and well kept, with facilities close to hand. The toilet and shower block is clean and tidy although not that modern.
I would return again to Rudding Park, however only in low season as I don't think during the summer it's worth paying for.

Arrived early afternoon. Friendly and helpful reception. Found the pitch Ok. Excellent large Super pitch. Clear view south for my Sat dish to find Sky sat. (Requested this in my booking).
Toilet block the best I have been in. Excellent facility. Clean and warm. Usual facilities but a lot of them. Inside dish washing area.
A pub on site which has food. Very pleasant and the menu was good. Has outside swimming pool but this was shut for the winter. Golf club just down the road but didn't use it. Restaurant also available if you want a special meal.
Shop was well equipped and has daily papers. Stayed for 2 days. It is a large site with statics but is not crowded and is well laid out. Bus stop outside main gate.
Bus to Harrogate every 30mins. Only took 15 minutes to get to Harrogate. Last bus back about 11.30pm which is good. Also service to Wetherby and Leeds. Will be staying here again.

Great site for family's or couples alike. Very clean showers and toilets and bins emptied regularly. Lovely pub on site which does reasonable pub grub. We did the family quiz on saturday which was fun for kids and adults alike!
There is a playground at the rear and its situated near swimming pool although this was not open in low season. We had a nice meal at a pub in nearby Follyfoot which was a more than reasonably priced Sam Smith pub At £1.51 a pint!
Will definitely be going back to this site as its close to lovely Harrogate and Knaresborogh with bus stops just outside. If you fancy something a bit grander than pub Rudding Hall is 2min walk with a restaurant and bar although we didn't try it have heard good reports. All in all would recommend this site

We spent a Friday and Saturday at this site and had enjoyable time. We were located on hardstanding at the motorhome area, which we knew about when we booked. There was an open area where the children could play safely, just opposite.
The toilet and shower facilities were very good.
With regard to the pool, we were a bit aggrieved at having to pay £27.50 a night, we were asked to pay extra every time we wanted to use the pool and we also had to book a session to make sure we could use it.
The pub take away food(pizza) was good. The golf course was expensive, even the 6 hole course, but it was a bit of fun.
We enjoyed the site, however, we felt it was quite overpriced at £27.50 a night.

Hi all, we had our first camping trip as a family and stayed at Rudding Park.
Can only offer praise to this site, arrived and the check in was easy and all was explained, was able to choose pitch in a sheltered area behind a hedge. Pitch was level and easy to stake out tent.
Facilities were great, showers were hot and toilets were clean and the washing up area was cramped but ok and the water was very hot, don't let young children wash up, could do with a warning notice regarding the hot water!
Shop was good selling the essentials and the wine wasn't marked up too much either.
Pub and pool were popular and the playground was adequate for my children aged 5 & 9.
Plenty of space to play for the children who made numerous friends in the four nights wew were there.
Mixture of tents and caravans and all got on fine.
Good base to explore the area.

Absolutely loved this site. It was fantastic. We camped for a week, Monday to Friday. We had a lovely spot with elecric hook up. The site is very family orientated.
The toilets were very clean and the showers always had hot water. The only downside to the showers is you cannot control the temperature and the first day we used them they were scalding hot. Luckily the other days were much better.
There are separate cubicles with sinks which gives you privacy. The toilets we used were very close to our pitch but there was another much larger toilet block near to the reception. This one has a bath and I didn't really seem a bother in pushing the button for the hot water. The bath was ideal for my 4 year old.
The site has a great mini market for basic essentials and a lovely family pub. Try the meals there, they were great and very good value. We had our two daughters, 12 and 4 and another 12 year old. They all loved the swimming pool which is outdoor but heated. Problem tho in getting them out! Next to the swimming pool is a beer garden and children's playground.
The site itself is very large but during the week is not overcrowded. I would suggest camping mid week. We left on the Saturday morning but on the Friday loads of campers arrived and it did become much busier, in fact a bit too busy. The local area is brilliant. There is so much to do. York is a beautiful city and is only about half an hour away and you can easily spend a good few days there and still not see everything. Flamingo land is another favourite and is about an hour away and a great day out with lots to do for all age groups.
We didn't spend too much time in the campsite as we were out all day every day, usually coming back quite late and exhausted. Harrogate is just about 10 minutes away and is another lovely town. There is also a large Sainsburys just down the road which was great.
All in all a brilliant site, so much so that we will definitely go back. Very clean and tidy and the staff are very helpful. We are seasoned campers and have been camping for years. I have been on some really bad and really good sites and am quite particular about cleanliness and the toilets etc. This has to be one of the best sites we have been on and would definitely recommend it. Make sure you book in advance tho.

This is our second visit to this site this year, the site is very nice always clean and tidy, the shop stocks the basics if you run out. Shower block very good, plenty of hot water and always very clean.
The pub/restaurant is very good the staff are great, the food is first glass and at the right price. Plenty of area for the kids to play, very good dog walk. The only down side for me is you have book a slot for going into the pool plus you have it to pay for.
All in all we will return.

We visited the site on a weekend. The site was not full on the Friday however we were still packed in. Non of the toilets flushed on a morning though later on they worked?
On the Sunday morning the chemical disposal became blocked.
The pool area was clean and tidy the use of the pool is extra and slots have to be booked in advance.
The bar food was adequate though the staff were very amiable.

Very good clean site, shower block very good.
Pub & pub food very good indeed.
Small shop is well stocked with food also stocks small parts for caravans.
Plenty of area for the kids to play.
We do not agree with having to book a slot plus pay for using the pool, expensive, also expensive to go golfing.
All in all site worth a visit but we thing it is expensive we stayed 2 nights on hard standing cost £44, a little on the high side.
At top of this cost for pool and golf.

We stayed on this site on the first bank holiday of the month. The site was full but was very relaxed. The pitch we had was ample enough for our caravan and awning.
My partner and daughter were happy to find a bath in the shower blocks, the only snag was that you had to hold the push button in for ages to fill the bath up.
The site was lovely and clean. The children on the site were able to ride around on their bikes and there was a big open space where they could play football.
The pub/restaurant was nice with lovely barstaff. The children were able to play pool and arcade games. The swimming pool hadnt been opened which was a shame as the weather was lovely.
We called into Harrogate and Knaresbrough which are only a few miles down the road.
Overall a lovely place to visit.

Rudding Holiday Park - ‘Centre Parc’ for campers ? Lovely location, ‘heated’ outdoor pool, club house, gated - great if you like holiday parks and designer camping. The management absolutely cram in the campers with multi use of what would otherwise be well spaced pitches. Weekend camping totally over subscribed, leaving toilet & wash up facilities inadequate.
Two toilet blocks on site. One located near touring pitch has only two sinks !
Very noisy - despite advertising as ‘family site’ this is a party site. Would advise splashing out on a ‘Super-pitch’ or visiting during the week.
Convenient location for Harrogate, Knaresborough & Wetherby. Too commercial, crowded and noisy - how it has 5* grade is a mystery. If you like crowds and shopping this is for you - otherwise avoid.

Like someone else mentioned, this park was reasonably close (40 mins) for us, so we used it as our first camping trip of the year, just to get back into it.
We had nice weather, which always helps, but I was impressed with the site on the whole; clean shower block is always top of my list.
There was a decent play area, which is so spacious I am sure they could make even more of an effort with it. Well laid out fields and a nice base to explore some nice parts of North Yorkshire - we had a nice drive to Knaresbourgh which is only about 5 miles away at a guess.
Well developed, well established and a nice way to start our camping year.
My only niggle was I must have gone through or ruined a couple of dozen tent pegs; the beautiful grass is only a blanket over some very rocky sub-surface.
Enjoyed.

Just back from yet another fantastic weekend at Rudding Park. Fabulous park suitable for everyone. Even though it is only 40 mins from home we feel like with have had a total rest. Staff are always friendly and professional. Prices reasonable, compared to most other 5 star sites, with such great surroundings.
Facilities are exceptionally clean and the showers are hot! large pitches grass and hard standing. Great pub on site selling great food. Swimming pool fab in the sunshine. Golf on site, and driving range, and lovely walks. Bus to Harrogate from park entrance with is useful for Motorhomers.
Harrogate is really good for shopping, eating and drinking, lovely holiday feeling,(very cosmopolitan). We will be back, as many times as possible!

A large site that is located a couple of miles south of Harrogate. There is a bus stop just outside the site and the buses run to Leeds and Harrogate. Be warned though - even though Leeds is only about 12 miles away, the bus journey takes a long time as the journey runs through lots of nearby villages etc.
The site itself was very quiet with very few people about. There is minimal noise from the surrounding area, although you can hear a train screeching in the distance every now and again. The site seems rather windy in places too.
We did not use the site facilities - ie washrooms/pot wash etc as we never do. Can't see the point of having a unit with facilities and not using them. That said, had we wanted to use the facilities, we were pitches quite a long way from the block anyway.
Hardstandings had a grass area in front of them - sure this defeats the object? Having to drive over grass to get onto a hardstanding does seem a bit strange.
Reception staff were friendly upon booking in and there are quite a few leaflets/bus times for the local area available.
There was no motorhome service point as far as I could see, but the pitch had a tap and drain, so not really an issue.
We thought the price was a bit high for the low season, but for the convenience of visiting Harrogate, then the site is worthy of a trip.
For our dog, we made use of a fairly large fenced area where the dog could run and so on. Plenty of doggy bins on site too.
