What customers say
This campsite is praised for its stunning, secluded rural location with panoramic views and proximity to walking trails. Visitors frequently highlight the exceptional cleanliness of the facilities, including spotless toilets and showers, and appreciate the friendly, accommodating owners who often go the extra mile. Pitches are generally spacious and level. While some mention minimal facilities and the site's exposed, windy nature, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing a desire to return. The adjacent pub is also a popular amenity.

From the manager: Hi Tony, thank you for leaving such a wonderful review, it’s hugely appreciated 👍
It was a pleasure to meet you last weekend, I’m glad you enjoyed it 😊
Thanks again for coming.
Kind regards Jane 😊
Lovely campsite. Excellent toilet and shower facilities.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Very clean toilets and shower.
Onsite fire pits, fire starter and logs for hire £15; only £10 for fire starter and logs after. Seems like a fair sum to support local businesses (co-op in Hebden bridge was selling for £10.50).
The owner, Jane, was really lovely.
Large field with cows dropping by for a visit by the fence. Nice views.
Only 12-15 mins drive to Hebden Bridge although the roads are narrow and onky fits one car at a time.
Disliked Not a dislike but there was only one shower onsite so something to be wary of if it gets busy although we didn’t have any issues with queuing or waiting.
The drinking water supply was from a bowser which we didn’t use as we brought drinking water.

A lovely little basic campsite, we would definitely go back.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Small and friendly campsite.
Basic facilities (toilets and one shower) but very clean and well stocked.
The views are amazing and there are animals all around which is lovely.
The owner Jane is a lovely, friendly lady and stopped to have a chat with everyone who was staying.
Fairly small do doesn't get too busy.
Loads of walking routes nearby and close to Hardcastle Crags.
Disliked Not really a dislike, just be aware that the site is quite exposed so be aware of changing weather. There is also a very limited phone signal.

Brilliant stay, and will be returning.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Friendly owners. Great views! Clean toilets & showers, and hot water!
Good to have a wash-up area too.
Disliked Field is a bit 'bumpy', with some holes deep enough to twist your ankles (which I nearly did a couple of times. Not a complaint or a dislike, just letting people be aware so as to take care if rushing about.
**Pub next door closed. Not Ridge Fold Camping's fault of course, but was a disappointment.

From the manager: Hi, thanks for coming and for taking the time to leave a review it was good to meet you.
I can only apologise on behalf of the rabbits about the holes, the pesky little blighter’s, they are a pain🙈🥴
Take care
Kind regards Jane 😊
Peaceful, simple, allows for you to switch off.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked The simplicity of the site, hot showers, clean toilets, nothing complicated including no phone signal or wifi. It allowed me to switch off from the world and focus on having time to myself. Be prepared for absolute basics, cook your own food (no pub near by) to entertain yourself and get back to basics (I recommend card games, reading a book, colouring book or download offline films). Great walking areas all around. The dams are lovely to walk around. The wildlife is lovely to see, especially the Lapwings.
Jane came around to say hello and made sure I had everything i needed, including a fire pit. It was lovely to have a chat with her and was happy for me to leave my car at the site when I went for a day's walk on the day of check out.
Disliked Would be nice for a facility to freeze ice blocks for people staying for more than a couple fo days.
