  • Small family-run park over two secluded acres
  • A mile and a half from Bedale: handy stopover for the A1
  • Play area with café easily accessible in the local village
Off to the Yorkshire Dales? Or might you prefer the moors? Or… a bit of both? Pitch up at Pembroke Caravan Park in the village of Leeming Bar: it's only a mile and a half from Bedale, the small market town with easy access to the Dales and set snugly in between both the Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors national parks. (And it's a handy A1 stopover too if you're zooming up or down the country to or from elsewhere.) Pembroke is a friendly, family-run and popular little park set in two level and secluded acres. It has a cleanly-kept shower and toilet block, a laundry room, a chemical disposal point, and washing-up facilities. Barbecues are allowed on site. For drinks and dinner, a pub is in the local village and a small supermarket is 400 metres away. Please note that while there's no play area on site and ball games aren't allowed, a large play area (with café) is easily accessible in the local village.

Liked Ideal half way stop for us on the way down from Edinburgh. Just off the A1 - it's a quiet well maintained compact site (we've stayed a few times for good reason). The site owners are very friendly and helpful. Amenities - there is a local Co-Op - just a 10 min walk down the road to the village where there is also the Wensleydale Railway (check the timetables on their website - wensleydale-railway.co.uk/stations-leeming-bar) . If you like aircraft and ad-hoc air shows - RAF Leeming is close by also. Definitely recommend this site as a stop over location. We had a motorhome so if you are going to base yourself here which is ideally located for North Yorkshire etc - you will need a car.

Disliked Nothing to note

Local attractions

One of the most spiffing things about the immediate area around Pembroke Caravan Park is the recently refurbished Wensleydale Railway, a short and non-puffy stroll away at the station of Leeming Bar. This takes scenery seekers on a 22-mile journey up into the Yorkshire Dales on its route from Northallerton to Garsdale – and as it's Yorkshire, you'll rightly guess it's all highly pretty too. Specialist local goods, services and shops are at the nearby market towns of Bedale and Northallerton, and a little further will take explorers to other worthy Yorkshire towns like Leyburn and Masham. Many of the highlights of the North York Moors and Yorkshire Dales national parks are also within easy driving distance of Pembroke, like Brontë and James Herriot country, more steam railways, old ramparts like Richmond Castle and, towards the east, access to Scarborough, Whitby and the wild Yorkshire coast.
