Unpowered grass tent site

Liked The peaceful campsite with only us there, the views are fantastic, if you would like the feel of wild camping, this is it
It is a lovely site and should be appreciated for that, yes there only 2 porter loos but there is water too.
We saw deers and owls, and for star gazing on a clear night it would be fantastic, we walked across the fields, the footpath is there but not that clear, to the pub where the home cooked food was lovely, we loved the sight as this is my review I only hope people go and appreciate it for what it is and take it in

Disliked Nothing

From the manager: Thank you for the great review. Very glad that you enjoyed your stay at Swinsty View😃

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked View to die for

Disliked Long wet grass, feet were soaked.
Lack of facilities, two portaloos
Was over priced at £25 for the facilities available.

If this woukd have been £15,
I would have been happier. As this would suit.

Local attractions

After an endless supply of activities in the outdoors? Continue your streak of outdoor activities in Stainburn Forest (25 minutes’ walk), which is known for its short and technical mountain biking trails and birds like red kites and woodpeckers. Get your hiking boots or trainers strapped on and head for the National Trust site of Brimham Rocks (15 minutes) for a good walk and a scamper. At this Site of Special Scientific Interest, there are stunning views of the moors from millions-of-years-old rock formations. The stunning Stump Cross Caverns (20 minutes) are just as impressive. The limestone cave system was formed by underground rivers. Keep an eye out for fossils and rocks in the shape of meat hanging from a butchers’ shop. If you’re keen to swap the dirt tracks for the cobbles too, make your way to Otley (15 minutes). Independent shops such as antiques or pubs serving popular pork pies are on-hand, as are food tours. Tour de Yorkshire cycling routes are accessible from here should you want to time a visit to a coffee shop before or after your ride.
