 Camp site on open fields, plenty of space for children to play.
Shower and toilet block clean, although you use a coin for each shower the water is hot and shower strong.
Cafe sells lovely home cooked food at a reasonable price.
Lots of motor bikes to browse around on Sunday.

We stayed at Squires over the Easter weekend. With all the awful wet and cold weather.
The location is only a mile or so from the main road arteries. It does have a railway line within 50 yards of the site and the trains for some reason do like to sound off their horns whilst travelling past. I found no shop/pub etc close by.
The site itself is one long track with hard standing pitches either side. The pitches are adequate but not large in size. The site seems to be half seasonal caravans and the other half normal tourers. All have electricity and plenty of water taps. The electricity is via a pre-paid card in £5 lots. The first night I was there it seemed to eat up the money. The subsequent nights I used little power but by then I had put in more money and ended up leaving money for the next camper. Even allowing for the vagaries of the electricity cost, at £12 per night at Easter it was good value.
The toilets were not so good. The shower cost £1 for 3 minutes and was only part of the loo with just a shower curtain separating you from the urinals. On my second day both cubicles were not working correctly. One had it's door broken and the other the door would not shut. However the loo in the café was absolutely fine.
The café itself was very good value for money with a big Sunday carvery. The café is known as a biker café. Do not be put off by hoards of motorbikes outside. The riders are all very pleasant people.
There are also a number of large fields beside the campsite which offer excellent dog walking. I suspect in the summer when there are rallies on it may be a bit different.
Due to this it may be best to check what if any events they are holding before you book.

If you are looking for a quiet peaceful site then it's not for you
We went over bank holiday 9 of us and had a cracking time
There was a band on in the pub/cafe who were brilliant
Pitches are spot on and plenty of water taps and electric
Waste disposal area is very clean
Toilets and showers are basic but very clean
For £10 a night it's spot on
We had a really good time and would go back especially if there was something on in the bar
The staff and Paul are very friendly and helpful
No trains at night.

This was our first venture in our new motor home and did not know what to expect. As it was a Bank Holiday weekend we were limited on our choice of sites. We read the reviews and decided to give this site a try.
We were pleasantly surprised. When we arrived at 7pm the place was packed with bikers. We went into the café and checked in the customers and staff were all very friendly.
All pitches are hard standing. We had pitch 32 which was at the back of the site which was quite compared to pitches near to the café, and there were no campers behind us.
While the train track is “near” you get used to the noise and the sounding of the trains horn. No trains run during the night.
Electricity is a £5 card which you insert into a slot at the electricity hook up. There is a digital display on the meter telling you how much is left on the card. A card lasted us three nights and we still had 75 pence left on the card when we left on Monday.
There was also a stand pipe near the meter.
There was plenty of space to walk the dog. There were a lot of people on site who did not keep their dogs on leads. So just take care when walking your dog.
The waste disposal was very clean.
We got the bus into Selby but were unaware that the service stopped running at 17:45. We got a taxi back which cost £20 which was well worth it as we shopped, had a few drinks and a lovely meal in Selby.
Transport is essential as there no pubs/shops within walking distance.
Would visit the site again.

The site is behind a lively bikers cafe. It also is a pub and a restaurant.
The facilities are well used and sited behind the accessories shop.
The pitches are in between the cafe and what appear to be a boot fair field.
All are hard standing and have adequate water and waste disposal, but have to say very uninspiring.
The staff are really friendly and helpful, we had a really good carvery meal in the pub. The pub was very lively with plenty going on and even has its own pseudo ice rink.
I might add, the trains do not run at night but don't pitch by the round 'W' sign by the railway. This means whistle for any eastbound trains.

I booked this site as being convenient to family in Pontefract / Castleford. We received a warm welcome in the cafe from the staff despite dealing with a lively bunch of Bikers celebrating Halloween.
The site, which is still being developed, offers flat hardstandings with plenty of space on a terrace behind the café. Electric points, standpipes and drains are plentiful although the chemical disposal point is currently temporary and being developed. “Super” pitches offer individual drainage but not a tap.
Toilets and showers, attached to a motorcycle shop behind the café, are clean and modern with copious hot water and token operated showers. Electricity is charged for separately; you buy a £5 card which is pushed in a slot on your electric outlet point. A display shows how much credit is still available. With a little care I made it last 4 nights despite leaving the heating on low each night.
The cafe, a converted country pub, is a lively establishment with long opening hours (shut on Mondays in winter). It offers quality Transport Café style food. We particularly enjoyed Yorkshire pudding filled to overflowing with “own farm reared Angus beef”. However, you may find yourself the only one drinking alcohol as the Bikers stick to tea and coffee for the most part.
The site is about a mile off the old A1 so access is easy and the road noise from the A1M is very much in the background. The Leeds/York railway runs alongside the site but trains stop overnight and most do not sound their hooters. Otherwise the site was quiet with no noise from the café or bikers though there is a field alongside used for Car Boot Sales etc.
Being close to the A1M/M62 junction, access to York and the coast is good and Junction 32 (M62) outlet shopping centre and Xscape ski slope and entertainment centre are 15 mins. Away. Several gastro-pubs are scattered throughout the surrounding rolling countryside.
This full facility campsite is situated in a campsite void between York and Wakefield and I will happily return it when I need to visit the area.
