Goose Wood Caravan Park
Website: www.goosewood.co.uk
This park is situated in the lovely countryside of the North Yorkshire moors. It is very well signposted and so is easy
to find.
On arrival there is a well laid out reception area with a small shop attached. There is also a large supermarket, ten minute's drive away, towards York.
The site is accessible via a security barrier (£5 refundable deposit) which leads to the large, grassed, level touring area. All pitches are large, with adequate separation from your neighbour.
An unusual amenity on site is a health suite (log cabin) which has an external 5m-wide hot tub, sauna, gym equipment, shower and changing rooms to hire in
45-minute pre-booked periods.
Goose Wood has good facilities for those who do not use on-board toilets or showers. The buildings are clean and are complemented by a laundry and a separate room with full-size bath and lashings of free hot water. It's just the job for scrubbing up the children after a full day's trekking in the North Yorkshire Moors, or after they have been kept busy playing in the site's excellent children's play area.
Be aware that parking in York
is expensive and spaces are at a premium so, when visiting the city, use the park-and-ride bus service. The Jorvik Viking Centre with its reconstructed Viking-age streets is nine miles from the campsite. It conjures up an environment that's fantastically authentic to the year AD975. Admission: £7.75 adult; £5.50 child. Tel 01904 543400. Web www.vikingjorvik.com.
