What customers say

This well-maintained campsite offers stunning Yorkshire Dales views and a peaceful atmosphere. Visitors consistently praise the immaculate, modern facilities, friendly and helpful staff, and spacious, well-laid-out pitches. The location is ideal for walkers, with many routes accessible directly from the site. The popular on-site cafe and alpacas are also highlights. While generally excellent, some note challenging access for larger vehicles.

Electric grass tent pitch (medium)

Liked Beautiful location with so many amenities.

Disliked Not overly easy to get to the local village as the roads nearby are very windy and small. Make sure you have called at the shop or have a local taxi company number before you get there.

Electric gravel motorhome pitch (medium)

Liked Lovely site, perfect for tents and campervans. Tiered as its on a hillside but pitches are flat

Disliked A little tight for our motorhome.
Not many toilets considering size of site and most people being in tents.

Electric grass tent pitch (medium)

Liked Lovely views, great wildlife and good amenities. Pitches are well enough spaced that you’re not on top of each other. Loved having access to a bench by the pitch, made life easier.

Disliked Partial dislike- our pitch was at the bottom, so next to a wall. Great for a wind block, but did impede the view a little.

Local attractions

If one morning you feel inspired to go strolling, there’s no need to pack up the car. The path to Simon's Seat (half an hour’s walk to the top) is barely a couple minutes' stroll from the site and has simply grand views of the Yorkshire Dales. Carry on rambling into the surrounding moors, where there’s a waterfall dubbed ‘the valley of desolation’. There’s not much desolation around, but there is a gorgeous waterfall and a pool to wade in. A short drive will get you to local villages or towns like Grassington (20 minutes' drive), which has art galleries, a cobbled market square and e-bike hire, and Skipton (20 minutes), which has a castle and heaps of eateries. Another good outing is the Stump Cross Caverns (10 minutes). Discovered by lead miners in the mid 1860s, the cave complex has a cinema and exhibits including prehistoric remains of wolverine and reindeer. The caverns have a hilltop walk, but if you’re still in the mood for more good walks, excellent trails include those around the half-mile-long limestone gorge at Troller's Gill (10 minutes) and Rylstone Cross (25 minutes).
