  • Relaxed family-run site on a farm in the Yorkshire Dales
  • A 15-minute drive from Malham Cove, Gordale Scar and Janet's Foss
  • Well-spaced hardstanding pitches with a large dog exercise area
Ash Keys Caravan Park is a family-friendly site in a quiet corner of a family-run 165-acre farm. This peaceful spot is at the southern end of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, half a mile from the teeny hamlet of Eshton and five minutes’ drive from more extensive amenities (pubs, takeaways and small supermarkets) in Gargrave. This is a most handy spot to settle in for outdoor activities: you can take walks or bike rides directly from the park, join nearby major trails like the Pennine Way (three quarters of a mile from the park), Way of the Roses and National Cycle Network Route 68. The fab attractions around Malham (Malham Cove, Janet’s Foss and Gordale Scar) are about a 15-minute drive away. The well-kept pitches here all have electricity, water hookups and grey waste drains. The facilities block houses toilets and showers, a washing-up area and an information hub, and there are also recycling facilities and an Elsan point close by. Dogs are welcome on site and have their own dedicated exercise area where they can have a good run about. Barbecues are also permitted, and perhaps at their finest when graced with good food from one of the three excellent farm shops within a 10-minute drive.

What customers say

This well-maintained, peaceful campsite in the Yorkshire Dales offers spacious, fully serviced pitches with beautiful views. Guests praise the immaculate, modern facilities, secure dog exercise area, and helpful information hub. The relaxed, self-check-in approach and the tranquil atmosphere are highly appreciated. While most guests find nothing to dislike, a few noted the distance to showers or minor issues with pitch levelling. Overall, it's a highly recommended destination for a relaxing getaway and exploring the surrounding countryside, with many guests planning return visits.

Liked Second time staying at this site and won’t be the last, we absolutely love it!!
The ‘self service’ ability to choose your own fully serviced pitch on arrival is excellent.
Well maintained site, modern & clean facilities. Lots of games, books & DVD’s to borrow, the owners have clearly put a lot of thought into this site.
We have recommended the site and spread the word to many and will continue to do so x

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked We loved our stay at Ash Keys..from being able to pick your pitch, the warm welcome, the lovely animals and birds, to the ideal location for exploring the area.

The pitches were very spacious and the site was so quiet and peaceful. The toilet and shower block were immaculately clean, clearly well attended to daily.

We woke up daily to the birds tweeting, including curlews and goldfinches. The cows, sheep and rabbits were always around to say hello too.

Local attractions

If you’re not planning lengthy rambles on the long-distance paths, set forth for some of the local highlights instead. Get going in Gargrave (five minutes’ drive) with a waterside walk by the Leeds-Liverpool Canal, then see cascades in action at Linton Falls (20 minutes). Make time for Malham too: a 15-minute drive gets you over to this fab village and its trio of top sights (Malham Cove, Janet’s Foss and Gordale Scar). After that, take an uphill challenge on the mountain paths of Pen-y-Ghent (35 minutes) or head underground to see what’s in store at Ingleborough Cave (40 minutes). Other ways to get about? Perhaps with a day of horse riding from Kilnsey or a rather more laidback trip on the Settle-Carlisle Railway – both are about 20 minutes’ drive away. And if you’ve got tiddlers who’d benefit from staying in one place for a while, there’s plenty to keep them amused among the animals, tractor tours and play areas of Hesketh Farm Park (20 minutes).
