  • Peaceful adults-only site one mile from the market town of Otley
  • Country pub five minutes’ walk; River Wharfe and shops 25 minutes
  • Free-range eggs to buy on site; well-behaved dogs welcome
Go here if you fancy staying within the green slopes of the West Yorkshire countryside, and without any free-range children running around. Woodside Campsite is a site for adults only – in particular, those of you who are scanning for somewhere to stay with spacious pitches, fresh country air and views over open fields. As you might expect from the location, this is a quiet, peaceful site. There are some mod cons on site, including a clean amenities block with hot showers, toilets and a changing room, plus an outdoor washing-up area. Your breakfast here could feature fresh free-range eggs from the hens that live on site; they’re not the only animals to dwell here, as there are also rescue donkeys and goats in the adjacent field. Kids may be banned, but your well-behaved dogs are more than welcome on site. When the hour of the day calls for a pint or you’re not quite in the mood to cook from scratch, simply stroll to the country pub five minutes’ walk away from Woodside Campsite. There are more options for eating out in the market town of Otley; in the town centre, about half an hour’s walk away, there's a butcher's, a bakery and chip shops. The town also has a market every Friday and Saturday, a farmer’s market the final Sunday of each month and independent boutiques. Routes for walkers and cyclists begin from the site’s gates, if you’d prefer to spend most of the day on a trail.

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Lovely location just outside Otley but only a 15 min walk into the centre of town. The site is a trail as a 'pop up' for this summer. Really well laid out with pitches carved out of the long meadow grass to give a lot of space and perceptions of privacy. Toilet and shower block is a mobile unit but brand new and spotlessly clean. Pub just 2 mins walk up the road.
The owner Michelle was really friendly and even printed out directions for me to the VW Show I was going to on the day of departure. Little touches like that make all the difference.
Donkeys and goats on the site too so what's not to like!!! Highly recommended.

Disliked Nothing really

Liked Lovely campsite. Very peaceful and quiet. The toilet and shower facilities were super clean and well kept. Loved the animals on site and the owner was super friendly. She even allowed us to pet the animals and help feed the pigs! Will definitely come back when we next visit Yorkshire!

Liked Amazing little campsite, very peaceful and great toilet and wash facilities.

We will come back here again (when we can find a babysitter) the site is adult only and has good views of the surrounding area.

There is a pub 6 mins walk up the hill that serves amazing pies and other pub grub. Close to Otly which has lots of independent shops right on the river.
