Traveling to Knaresborough by RV

Reaching Knaresborough by motorhome involves navigating the A59, which provides the most direct route from both the A1(M) motorway and Harrogate. Exit the A1(M) at Junction 47 and follow the A59 west for approximately 8 miles. The route handles large motorhomes well, though you'll want to avoid the town center's medieval streets.

Watch for height restrictions on some of the older bridge approaches around town -- the railway viaduct area has clearance issues for taller rigs. Stick to the main A59 corridor and follow caravan site signage to avoid problems. The Caravan Club site sits on the outskirts where access is much easier.

Overnight parking options are limited in the immediate area, with most RVers either staying at the caravan site or continuing to larger service areas along the A1(M). Winter driving can be tricky on Yorkshire's smaller roads, particularly if you're planning to explore the Dales afterward. The A59 gets regular maintenance and stays passable year-round for standard motorhome traffic.

Explore the Knaresborough Area

Hit the motorhome service point early in the day during summer months when the Caravan Club site sees heavy traffic from touring caravanners. The facility includes a rinse hose and fresh water point, but bring your own waste hose as some European fittings differ from American standards.

Fuel up in Harrogate rather than Knaresborough itself -- the larger town has better access for RVs at supermarket fuel stations. Tesco and ASDA locations typically accommodate motorhomes more easily than smaller village petrol stations. For propane, Calor Gas exchanges are available at local caravan dealers, though you'll need UK-compatible fittings.

The town's main car parks have height barriers, so plan accordingly if you're sightseeing. Park near the caravan site and walk into town, or use the designated coach parking area near the castle grounds. Local shops stock basic motorhome supplies, but for major repairs or parts, head to Harrogate or York where you'll find proper caravan service centers.
