Liked: Very warm welcome. Spotless facilities. Surrounded by nature.

Disliked: Dear Pitchup…. Why just because we’re a couple do you insist on an age category? It’s not necessary. I won’t review in future until this is changed but Draughton Heights is beautiful.

Primitive grass tent or campervan campsite

Liked: Brand new site and if they've started as they mean to go on they'll have plenty of happy campers. Some of the best facilities I've ever come across, the little touches like shower gel and shampoo in the shower, washing up liquid as well made all the difference, I was actually warm when I got out the shower which doesn't often happen when you're camping! Wonderful friendly, social able hosts who could not do enough for you and the location is idyllic if you need to escape as it's surround by the stunning Yorkshire Dales. Thanks again for you wonderful hospitality I'm sure my friends and I will be back!

Primitive grass tent or campervan campsite

Liked: A very recently opened site that we had a lovely stay at. I am sure will not stay much of a secret for long and become increasingly popular over the summer. The owners were really welcoming and friendly, and you can tell that they have sunk a lot of time and hard work in to developing the site. The facilities are excellent with clean toilets and showers and piping hot water. There's even good WiFi despite being situated on top of the moors. The three lakes attract a wide range of wildlife which makes it even more attractive and the site is open and spacious to leave plenty of room between your nearest neighbours. Will definitely be back!

Primitive grass tent or campervan campsite

Liked: The owners are lovely and made sure everything was good for us. The site facilities were fantastic and the views were great.

Disliked: Not the fault of the owners but if you use google maps its takes you to a neighbouring farm as the track for the camp site doesn't show up yet.

Local attractions

Take a ride on the Embsay & Bolton Abbey Steam Railway. Bolton Abbey station (10 minutes’ drive) is a recreated 1800s building with a vintage café where you can sample delicious homemade cakes. There is a lively calendar of events at the railway, including afternoon teas, murder mysteries and steam-driving experiences. An Augustinian priory established in the 12th century, Bolton Abbey (15 minutes) now sits in ruins on the River Wharfe, where a series of stepping stones allow you to cross the way workers at the priory used to cross. There is also a bridge for when it’s deemed unsafe to use the stones. The spa town of Ilkley (15 minutes) is overlooked by a vast area of wild moorland, just to the south, which includes features like the Cow and Calf Rocks and the Twelve Apostles Stone Circle. In town, there’s a playground in the Riverside Gardens and a child-friendly nature trail through the Darwin Gardens.
