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.
We have fifteen extra large super pitches for those customers who like lots of room between their own unit and the next unit.
The pitches are well spaced around the lake area with views of the Hambleton Hills. They are a little further from the amenity block, however do provide stunning views and lots of space.

Everything was perfectly organised, staff were very helpful, and the showers and toilets were always immaculate. Although the site was pretty full, it was so well spaced that it never felt busy or noisy. The location for walking and running is brilliant, which was our main reason for visiting; the field edges on site were an unexpected bonus as could walk the dogs nearby too and never busy.
Very impressed with everything from reception pitch and showers and will return for a longer stay Ray
From the moment we arrived at Hillside Campsite, we were greeted with friendly, helpful staff. Check-in was swift and we were soon on our designated pitch.The pitch was large with plenty of room for caravan, awning and vehicle.The grounds were very well maintained and the grass was manicured to within an inch if its life.The ground staff who we saw regularly, were friendly and very helpful.The facilities, toilet and showers room were extremely clean and had everything that you could wish for.We chose this site for location, which was perfect for our needs, as we wanted to visit lots of places in the area, and price, which for the facilities that were on offer, was very good value for money.We would highly recommend this site, and hope to in the future, visit again.
A lovely campsite, situated in an excellent position with fabulous views of the Moors. We loved it so much, we left our caravan there in storage, so that we can now visit regularly.Lots of pitches and lodges, but still manages to feel very quiet.Thoroughly recommend - oh and the staff are soooo helpful and friendly!
Lots to do nearby a pub within walking distance spacious pitches and spotlessly clean the staff work so hard to maintain it Very peaceful and quiet place with lots of room for children to play Shower facilities and toilets were immaculate the grass is very well maintained and an all round beautiful site
Great location, site and facilities. Spent just short of a week and it was hubby's birthday. The weather was splendiferous which helped.Wonderful dog walking around site for those days we didn't venture out.We had a lovely meal down the road at the Dog and Gun plus close enough to several areas we wanted to visit that were also dog friendly.Staff on site very friendly and courteous. We will definitely be back.
Lovely clean and quiet site. Pods set up away from caravans so feels like you are the only ones on site. Well set up with plenty of space just need bedding and camping crockery though can be hired. Good price when compared to similar.Great surrounding fields for dog walks from the site.Visited thirsk and Helmsley only a short drive away.
A very enjoyable experience. Lovely peaceful site. Very clean and well managed.
