Welcome to Poplar Farm


Nestled along the scenic banks of the River Ouse, just four miles downstream from the historic city of York, Poplar Farm is a family-run caravan park and campsite offering a peaceful retreat in the heart of Yorkshire.

We welcome touring caravans, motorhomes, and tents from February to early December. We have 50 touring pitches, 25 tent pitches, and 10 hard standing pitches for motor homes, all with electric hook ups. Separate paddocks are available to accommodate small educational parties.

For those seeking a more permanent getaway, we offer 100 static caravan pitches, including holiday caravans available for hire. A selection of new and pre-owned static caravans are also available for purchase, with prices ranging from £15,000 to £40,000.

Our latest addition, the luxurious Boat House holiday cottage, provides stylish two-bedroom accommodation, perfect for a relaxing break.

To ensure your preferred pitch, we recommend booking in advance—visit our bookings page for details.

A river bus operates from the park to the centre of York during the summer months.

The park is 3 miles from one of the finest parkland Golf courses in the North of England, and only 2.5 miles from the Knavesmire, York's prestigious racecourse.
