The Alders has been developed on historic parkland on a working farm so that visitors can enjoy the peace and tranquility of the Yorkshire countryside. The Alders is ideally located to explore the many attractions and beautiful areas in North Yorkshire. With the park's space and tranquility of the landscaped parkland it provides a beautiful environment for your stay.
The Alders have a range of Hard Standing and Grass pitches available with electric hook-up, suitable for touring caravans, motorhomes and campervans. The park also offers the opportunity to stay in your very own pod, they are located in their own landscaped area with plenty of space and privacy. Pods offer visitors the freedom and ambience of traditional camping whilst giving you a higher level of privacy and security and more comfort both inside and out. Alternatively pitches are available for you to bring your own tent.
The Alders has been carefully developed to ensure privacy through internal landscape and imaginative design. Spacious bays housing groups of caravans named after Yorkshire's famous Abbeys and Dales provide privacy with space. Our two shower blocks are centrally located for ease of access to all.
Our standard pod is perfect for families and sleeps up to 2 adults and 2 small children.
The Pod offers you the freedom & ambience of traditional camping whilst giving you a higher level of privacy and security and more comfort both inside & out. Outside there is a decked area at the entrance for dining al fresco, chilling out or if the weather allows-sunbathing! You need to bring everything you normally would for camping apart from the tent.
The benefits of staying in a camping pod:
| No hassle – just walk straight in and relax! | |
| No standing in the rain putting up or taking down your tent! | |
| All the fun of camping with use of all park amenities | |
| More privacy, space and security |
| Children love it - it’s a ‘den/cave’ thing | |
| Affordable and different | |
| Bring everything you would for camping – but not the tent |

We stayed at the Alders last year on a trip to visit York and thought highly of it and so decided to use it again as a one night stopover en-route to Cambridge this year.The site is well-maintained and the facilities are spot on. The village is lovely and it's a short bus journey to York if visiting. A warm welcome was had though we missed visiting the shop this time. We will no doubt stay here again in the future. Perhaps then we'll finally get to have a beer at the cricket club! Note to self: book for a Friday!
What lovely feedback thank you!Yes, please do come for the cricket next time :)Best wishes from The Alders team.
A lovely, very spacious site, perfect toilets and showers, very peaceful. Bus stop very near with easy access to York and Thirsk. Good cafe on site and friendly staff, Overall excellent.
Thank you for the lovely feedback. Really pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us. Best wishes from The Alders team.
Excellent locationBeautiful siteWelcoming hostGreat coffeeWe'll be back!
We live this site, beautiful nature walk around the perimeter, such space around the pitches, 3rd year on the trot for us and who can resist the coffee shop at the entrance, its a piece of heaven
Many thanks for such kind feedback. Just great to hear :)Best wishes from The Alders Team
Very friendly staff. Nice flat site. Excellent cafe. Great pub nearby. Good amenities on site, toilet and shower block was clean and warm.
Thank you Paul for your very kind feedback.We hope to see you again sometime.Best wishes from The Alders Team.
We had the best time we stayed for a long weekend in one of the pods our son camped and the rest of the family had caravans or camper vans.The staff are so friendly and helpful nothing is too much trouble. We ate at the onsite cafe twice for brunch and breakfast it was delicious again the staff are to be commended they were brilliant not just with us but with other guests .The facilities were exemplary.The space that you have outside your pod tent or caravan is massive so if you have children they have plenty of room to play.We visited the cricket club next door which in my opinion is a must again super friendly.We will return absolutely positively the best camping experience I’ve had in York and on the plus side if you want to do parkrun on a Saturday morning it’s only 20 mins drive away
Thank you Claire for your really kind feedback. It makes all the hard work so worthwhile - I can't tell you how much we appreciate it.We are very lucky to get some great customers!Best wishes from The Alders Team.
The team are always so cheerful, welcoming and go above and beyond. We go a few times a year and just being acknowledged by name is so lovely. Well looked after grounds, clean showers and a cafe on sight are all a bonus.
Thank you Julia for such kind feedback.We are vey lucky to have such great customers! :)
We found the staff very helpful ad friendly. The campsite is clean and peaceful with good, clean facilities. The campsitesite is a great base for visiting attractions within North Yorkshire
Our pod was clean, cosy and came equipped with a lamp and heater, with drinking water taps situated nearby. The washing facilities were clean, and included baby changing. The park itself is peaceful and well kept, with chickens, cows and sheep — my daughter especially loved watching the chickens being fed. We enjoyed the cricket and sitting at the clubhouse. Highlight was Whiteley’s cafe. The owners and employees were incredibly friendly, and the food was delicious!
Thank you Rebecca for such kind feedback.! It was lovely to meet you all and I'm really pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We hope you get the chance to visit us again sometime.Best wishes to all three of you,Rachel and team.
We found the Alders a quiet, peaceful site where if you are looking just pitching up and staying there without moving off site its ideal.The pitches are a good 10 to 15 minute walk, to the nearest restaurant/pub which serves fantastic and well presented food. For us it was a bit far given that my partner has mobility issues. There is a cricket club bar closer that it open on a weekend if you want a drink or to get out.The site has plenty of toilets and showers which are clean.Our only issue with these was that you couldn't control the temperature of them and they were lukewarm at best.As we said. If you want to pitch up and stay then this is an ideal site for you.
Many thanks Gary for taking the time to leave such a kind review. Of course we are sorry that you wouldn't want to return to us, but all feedback is useful and helps us continue to improve the customer experience here at The Alders, for which we are grateful.Best wishes from The Alders Team
