The Oaks Lakes Caravan Park

The Oaks Lakes Caravan Park is a 25-pitch, adults-only touring and camping park set inside one of the north of England's best-known coarse fisheries at Sessay, near Thirsk in North Yorkshire. The village sits just off the A19 between Thirsk and Easingwold, with the Hambleton Hills filling the view to the north east and York about 40 minutes to the south. Built in 2014 in a quiet corner of the fishery, the park is screened by mature woodland and gives anglers ten lakes with more than 400 pegs a short walk from their pitch, plus a large cafe and a fully stocked tackle shop; campers staying on site can buy reduced price day tickets at the lakeside. All 25 supersized pitches combine hardstanding and grass with individual electric hook-ups, and a heated shower and toilet block with a covered washing-up area arrived in 2019. Be clear about the rules before booking: no under-18s, no dogs, no fires and no loud music, which is exactly why reviewers keep praising the quiet, clean, well-run feel and the good value food in the cafe. Nightly prices for The Oaks Lakes Caravan Park are quoted through the park's online booking system, or by phone on 01845 522989.
