 Just returned from a four day stay at this lovely site. Its a great place to use for a base to visit York. There is a bus stop outside the site so there is no need to worry about parking in York. We personally used the park and ride from the designer outlet. During the summer months the river boat runs on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. We chose not to use the boat as the times weren't suitable for us, picks up at 9:30 and returns at 4:00. Catherine and Peter the owners of the site are so friendly and helpful nothing is to much trouble for them. The shop is well stocked with daily newspapers and essentials like milk etc and is open for a few hours in the morning and the afternoon. Toilet and shower facilities are very clean but a distance from the adult field that we were in. Drinking water and bins are available in all fields. There is a short walk down to the lock and watching the boats pass through the lock was fascinating all done by the lock keeper. A chip van comes to the site on a Friday evening. We would definitely visit again and highly recommend to other visitors. The site is very quiet at night.

Just back from a weekend stay. Beautifully kept site with friendly and helpful owners. The toilet block is spotless and hot water plentiful but the shower cubicles are tiny. Nothing to sit on and very cramped dressing area. There is a well stocked shop, plenty of useful information on what to do in the surrounding area too. A short walk down the lane and you can have a lovely walk along the riverside and watch the boats.
We were in the adults only area of the campsite and although next to a road, we were not disturbed at night by traffic noise.
I would recommend this site for visiting York, the bus stop is right outside the camp gates and takes you to the designer outlet and on into York itself.

This is a very practical campsite for visiting York. There is a bus from outside the site, that goes every hour or so into York; or you can drive to the Park&Ride beside the Designer Outlet and combine the trip with some cut price shopping! The site is very quiet, and the facilities are good. The owners are efficient and helpful enough, although they leave the campers to themselves. Freezer blocks can be refrozen in the shop, with donations invited to a charity. We camped with electric for £26 a night, which is on the expensive end of rates. For that we would have expected a properly enclosed wash-up area, and in fact it is outside (though covered) in a rather windy spot (hold on to your plastic plates…).

Just got back from a lovely relaxing weekend it's a very peaceful site with less than 5 minutes away from the lock itself and only a 10 minute walk into the village the Blacksmiths Arms, they do serve food but we didn't eat there but very welcoming. A bus stop is just outside the site if you want to visit York and either a car ride or a short walk to the designer outlet. Campsite was spotless as were the toilet and shower block a credit to the owners who were lovely and friendly and supply you with bus timetable which saved having to ask really looking forward to another vist.

We've just booked to return Naburn Lock and realised that we never left a review after our first visit.
So that answers the first question - would we return? Well, we are!
The site is in a great spot and is ideal for visiting York or any other nearby villages. Although it's close to York, the site still has a very rural feel to it.
We awoke on Sunday morning to see lots of hot air balloons lifting off from the next field. A great start to the day.
There was plenty of room for our caravan and the shower area was very clean.
I must also mention the on site shop. We love browsing these shops and theirs is well stocked and all reasonably priced. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Visited for Bank Holiday. Easy to find. Lovely as you enter site with all the flowers around reception. Now doesn't seem to advertise tents very much, but believe me, there is plenty of room for tents. 3 fields and loads of space. Although more caravans and motorhomes on site during our visit.
You can chose where you pitch your tent too.
Nice shower and toilet block, and although only 4 showers I never had to wait. Kept very clean all day long. The best thing about this site is location. At the bottom of the site is the river Ouse, leading into York. Also here are the canal locks, On weekends River boat picks up at the site at 9. 30AM and takes about 55mins into York, lovely trip, but doesn't go back until 4PM, not cheap, cost £28 for family ticket, but worth the trip. We thoroughly enjoyed watching the boats travelling through the locks later in the day. Picnic tables near the canal gates.
The only negative thing I can say is maybe the washing up area could be improved. The 3 sinks are outside, although has a canopy, and there was no bin next to this area which I always think is needed. Apart from that, love this site.

A site that as been on my to do list for some time. Well visited 16th Aug for 6 nights, very easy access into the site, large pitches nice and level, the site is beautifully manicured excellent toilet block showers etc. Nice walks off site along the river or if weather allows a nice place to sit and watch the boats go by. We caught the river bus into York on sat a great way to travel taking about a hour. So if your looking for peace n quite but on the edge of all this great area as to offer then this site as it all

We've just returned from this very pleasant, immaculately kept touring site. This is our fourth visit, and certainly won't be our last. The pitches are very spacious with water point and refuge bin never far away.
The site is beautifully kept with plants and flowers around the site, which are lovingly cared for.
The toilet/shower block is always kept clean with hand wash and plenty of toilet paper. The showers are push button, which isnt a problem and they are free.
The owners Peter and Catherine are very pleasant and very helpful.
There is bus stops outside the site entrance, one way to York, the other to Selby. Unfortunately they no longer provide a service on Sunday. The river bus runs into York at the weekend though. Keep up the excellent work, we will be back.

We've just returned from a 2-night stay at Naburn Lock, agreeing on our journey back that this is one of the best sites we've stayed at. Here's why:
A friendly and helpful welcome goes a long way to making you feel at home on a campsite, and this was spot on at Naburn Lock. We had only booked for one night but discovered when we got there that we could stay for two. Not a problem, and Peter was helpful in showing us the options available to us – the adults only area or the camping field (the one which also takes camper vans and caravans). We opted for the camping field and were delighted with the field and our pitch.
The site itself is immaculately kept and, although quite large, feels more intimate because of the excellent planting and landscaping. Toilet and shower facilities are very good – not the most modern, but absolutely spotless and never busy, even though the site was pretty full. The shop in reception stocks essential food and camping supplies, newspapers etc (and delicious sausage rolls!), and the fish and chip van that comes on Friday evening serves up really delicious meals.
Location is excellent. There's a bus stop directly outside the site with buses into York, you can walk to the McCarthur Glen shopping centre (if you must!), the village of Naburn and its pub is just five minutes walk and best of all is the riverboat that runs into York at the weekend. It's about an hour's trip, very informative and there are refreshments on board – a lovely way to arrive in the city.
There were quite a mix of campers when we were there, from families with children to couples like us and overseas visitors, making for a good atmosphere where everyone was respectful of the quiet times and clearly enjoying the site and the area. Hard to believe that this lovely rural site is so close to the city of York. Excellent all round, and we'll certainly return.
