Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked A warm friendly welcome from the owner. A great site, well maintained with generous hard standing pitches. Good facilities too.
An ideal location for walking the Ribble Way and only 5 miles from Settle.

Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked Lovely, tiny site on a working farm with just 5 pitches. We were greeted at the gateway by the friendly owner, who familiarised us with the facilities and recommended things to do in the area.
Generous pitches with EHU, a gravel hardstanding and grass area. There are little nightlights with motion sensors all around the site. The amenities block is small but very well thought out - each unit has separate areas for toilet, shower and wash basin. This allows for more privacy, especially if more than one person needs to use the facilities at the same time. There is an outdoor sink for washing up, plenty of hot water. Separate bins for recycling, grey water and Elsan point. Everything handy and tidy.
Loved the dog exercise area where pups can run free. Lots of local walks and a gorgeous country pub right next door.
Beautiful dark skies for star gazing. We enjoyed a lovely, peaceful stay and will definitely return.

Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked Friendly site, well maintained with all basic facilities. I had a hard standing pitch which was level and plenty of space for outdoor chairs. If you’re looking for a base from which to drive and explore it’s great. Nothing in close proximity though aside from pub.

Electric grass touring pitch
Liked Location
Disliked Stuck in a corner with a wall in front next to dog walking area, with our dogs on leads all the time as requested by the owner 3 dogs approached us at our van.
Little disappointment at the owner check out was 11am which we started packing up at 10am but due to my wife just finishing chemotherapy she got tried quick, left myself to finish packing it was 11.08am when we was asked how long are we going to be, maybe if asked why we was running behind instead of making us feel uncomfortable.

From the manager: Gosh…. Guess I am compelled to respond to your review even though I am not quite sure what I’m responding too….
I don’t suppose at any given point during your stay, you gave any consideration to actually looking above the said “wall” you mention (yes folks, it’s a fact that there are several thousand miles of drystone walls in this area, something the Dales are rather famed for I believe..) and you would have been met with the most fabulous long distance views that included the rather famous Pen-y-ghent Peak….
I’m at a total loss with the next bit about 3 dogs…no idea what the point is especially as we have a 2 dogs max limit 🤔 go figure, as they say.
The final paragraph kind of really annoyed me and perhaps just for some perspective on check out time…It’s 11.00 am and all information says this both pre stay and upon arrival so what’s the problem here? At around 11.15am after everyone else had departed, I approached you and asked “Will you be long as I have to access the field next to this pitch with a tractor and trailer?” Your response was “no, 5 or 10 minutes”. You conveniently forgot that fact didn’t you…
I am unable to comprehend (and you have raised the point not me) why, when your wife had undergone chemotherapy were you even expecting her to pack up which made her tired? That’s down to your actions sir, and yours alone, please don’t try to blame someone else!
All in all, a pretty low blow using someone’s illness as an excuse to give a negative review.
I do however wish your good lady a speedy and successful recovery.
The ever challenged grumpy manager….
Brilliant stay here at Willowbeck, nice n chilled for our journey home

Excellent small site with very clean facilities and a great location
Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked Lovely site. Especially like the fact it is smaller and only a few minutes walk from a fantastic pub, The Plough. We had a wonderful meal there highly recommend it. The toilet and shower were very clean and the dedicated Dog field is a very welcome bonus.

Excellent site, we'll come again.
Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked It is a lovely campsite tucked away off the main road. I love that its a smaller campsite and the amenities are close by. Bathroom/shower very clean and looked after. Dishnwashing area is available as well as a place to dump waste water, etc.
We used a hardstanding electric pitch and it had a grassy area attached. Everything worked well including our wifi. Staff are very nice and there is a pub around the corner.
