🚐 We had a lovely stay at Chowdene Camping and Caravan site, a @CandMClub Certified Location just outside of York. 🌳 The site offers fairly flat gravel pitches with generous grass sections between each pitch, and each has an electric hook up. 💡 Fresh water, black and grey waste (not drive over) are available, along with a toilet and shower. 🚿 Our 8m motorhome had easy access, and while there was a bit of road noise during the day, it was very quiet at night. 🛌 The location is perfect for visiting the City of York, with only a 10-minute walk to the Monk Cross Park and Ride, getting you into the city within 15 minutes for just £5.50 with a Family All York Day bus pass. 🚌 the site is also located close to a number of supermarkets.🛒 Highly recommend this very reasonably priced site if you're thinking of visiting York.

Great CL...25 min walk from Centre of York. Park and ride just round the corner , buses every 10 mins. A bit of road noise but pretty unnoticeable after a bit. Pitches were nice, flat and roomy. 20p showers last 3 mins..but clean and work well. Catherine, the owner, was very helpful. Will be returning.

Spent 2 nights here. Received a warm welcome from Catherine the owner on arrival. Lovely site in an excellent location. Level hardstanding pitches with electric hook up that were well spaced out. Single toilet and shower on site which was clean and adequate for the site. 10 minutes walk to Monks Cross park and ride and retail / leisure park. Some road noise but not too intrusive. Would definitely recommend.

Good location for York city. Easy to get too from the A64. Walk or number 9 bus to city centre. Site was very peaceful and felt like you were pitched up in the countryside. Definitely recommend.

Absolutely brilliantly situated for Monks Cross Park and Ride, being about a 10 min easy walk away. Cost (with free pass card) £1.30 return. No 9 bus takes uou right into the heart of York. The site is found alongside a car sales garage, some way back from the road, so very quiet and private. Great hard standing pitches, water, toilet emptying etc and plenty of green space. We didn't use the shower, but it looked clean etc, £25 per night. Friendly helpful proprietor. Great.
