A distinguished 9-acre haven located just outside the picturesque village of Knayton in North Yorkshire, Hillside Caravan Park stands out as an award-winning family-run retreat. This idyllic park seamlessly blends luxury facilities with breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere for visitors.
Nestled in the heart of Herriot country, Hillside serves as an ideal launching point for exploring the North York Moor National Park, the East Yorkshire coast, historic market towns, and the culturally rich city of York.
The park accommodates touring caravans and motorhomes, offers a unique 'glamping' experience in luxurious camping pods, and features a cosy holiday cottage, ensuring a diverse range of choices for guests. Welcoming both children and dogs, Hillside Caravan Park strives to provide a warm and family-friendly environment.
The park boasts top-notch facilities for touring caravans and motorhomes, with the capacity to cater to up to 50 units. The small, family-run park is enveloped by the stunning Hambleton hills, creating an atmosphere where guests can truly relax and relish their holiday in comfort and tranquillity.
Among the onsite facilities at Hillside, a heated amenity block provides convenience and comfort to guests. Additionally, a spacious recreational area is available and forms an ideal space for children to engage in games and outdoor play. For those seeking connectivity, a small coffee lounge with free WiFi access is provided, ensuring that guests can stay connected while surrounded by natural beauty.
One of the highlights of Hillside Caravan Park is the Deluxe Mega Pods, offering a complete glamping experience. These locally-built pods feature contemporary country decor, providing a comfortable and stylish space for guests to relax and unwind. The Mega Pods aim to offer a warm, cosy, and comfortable glamping experience, allowing guests to feel close to nature while still enjoying the comforts of home.
The park's commitment to quality extends to its dog-friendly approach, with ample opportunities for nature walks surrounded by outstanding natural beauty. With established walking routes, guests and their furry companions can explore the scenic landscape and capture the essence of the local wildlife.
For those seeking self-catering accommodations, Hillside Caravan Park presents The Granary Cottage. This high-quality lodging, converted from a traditional stone barn, accommodates up to four people. Retaining some of the original beams, the cottage combines a contemporary ambiance with a touch of tradition, offering a unique and comfortable retreat.
Hillside’s strategic location provides easy access to various tourist destinations, including idyllic countryside walks, historic market towns, pubs and restaurants, stately homes, abbeys and golf courses. Guests can explore the diverse attractions that North Yorkshire has to offer, all conveniently located near their caravan or Mega Pod.

Amazing site we are store and stay residents and will be here for a lot of years to come
All staff very knowledgeable, welcoming, always willing to help if any problems experienced. Charges quite high but you have to pay for quality. Can't think of any improvements that could be made to the site including individual pitches. Think better use of the lounge area behind reception could be made better use of.
Clean, quiet site. Recently chose to have pitch and store and we are very pleased with this service
Thd site and site are first class nothing is too much for them to help
We have been regularly visiting Hillside for over 5 years . The amenities and grounds are first class & extremely well maintained.The staff are friendly,helpful & efficient . Many first time visitors tell us that they have never experienced such thoughtfulness before.The location has beautiful scenery with rolling hills , forest & flocks of cattle & sheep which is very relaxing.The local area has many good pubs, restaurants & farm shops , and further afield are the market towns of Thirsk & Northallerton offering excellent shopping opportunities.The Yorkshire coast is nearby as are the Yorkshire Dales.Hillside is a perfect holiday destination which I totally recommend.
Very clean and tidy, enjoyed seeing the automatic mowers. Unable to adjust shower temperature which was too hot at times. There was a slight smell of effluent in the dishwasher area. By the end of the week it was better. Otherwise all good.
This was our first trip to Hillside and in our new (to us) campervan, we had originally booked the weekend of storm Amy but also had some issues with the van itself so swapped to the weekend of 10th October, considering the time of year the weather was awesome, the grass was plush and green, the bathroom facilities were immaculate, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Easy to access the site, very well sign posted, secure gate so not just anyone can gain access. Dogs kept on leads but all of them seemed happy including our very active Labrador. Good local walks with beautiful views.
Enjoyed it until someone upset my partner about what I said about dog waste
The pitch is so big which is fab by us, reception was so friendly and allowed us to pitch early for £10.
Lovely place, fully serviced pitch. Toilets and showers good and building warm. Plenty of bins and disposal points. Quick check in.
