What customers say
A peaceful, top-notch spot with gorgeous Yorkshire Dales views. Perfect for quiet relaxation and scenic hikes. Spotless, well-kept facilities (composting toilets, showers). Nice extras like garden games & responsive owners. Village pub nearby. No complaints from guests.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Great location with fantastic views across Wensleydale.
The site is very spacious with lots of space for the kids to run around.
The facilities were basic, but very well looked after. If you're after a wild camping experience, but with a shower then it's perfect!
Phone signal is excellent, which was a surprise given the remote location.
If you're in a tent, then make sure you've pegged it down well as it can get quite windy!

Beautiful setting with clean facilities and lovely owners.
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked A fabulous site with absolutely stunning views. Really can't fault this site at all. 3 adults stayed for 5 nights over the bank holiday weekend which was fairly busy. Toilets were always clean and well stocked, shower was clean too and we all managed a hot shower every night. Loved seeing all the kids playing out around the site, really lovely vibe to the site, everyone was very considerate regarding keeping noise down between the requested hours. All in all we've had a really lovely stay, would not hesitate to recommend and we'll definitely book again. 10/10 from us!!

Excellent site with amazing facilities. Friendly family.
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked TENTBOX FRIENDLY!!! Site was absolutely lovely and the views and family were amazing and couldn’t have been better. Friendly family and lovely farm, facilities and surroundings.
Disliked People were turning up around 9-10pm and setting up guessing this is just a one off tho as it was bank holiday weekend and won’t happen often. One van set up right next to the car and disturbed us most of the night and then another car set up close by around 10:15pm which disturbed the dogs once we had just got settled down for the night.

From the manager: Thank you so much for visiting us and bringing the late arrivals to our attention. We had set the last arrivals as 9:30pm to allow for people working or travelling to get to us or for last minute accommodation. We are grateful you’ve mentioned it as after some thought we have decided to change the latest arrival time to 8pm as you are right it does disturb others. We apologise if this caused you any inconvenience. As we don’t have a reception we do rely on people being mindful of others but sadly, this doesn’t always happen. I think on this occasion one group did call me to say they were running late.
We hope this won’t put you off visiting us again in the future, we welcome all feedback to make our site better.

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Stayed for 8 nights looking for peace and quiet and that’s exactly what I got.
Solo female traveler- felt safe and comfortable.
Facilities basic but super clean and shower was always hot. Stunning views in every direction, enough walking paths to keep you busy directly from site.
Although a working farm very little noise from farm machinery … chatter from sheep and cows was an absolute joy.
The livestock here are so well cared for and the owners are friendly and on hand if you need anything.
Disliked Nothing
