  • Family-run farm campsite on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales
  • Lake District National Park and Forest of Bowland 40 minutes’ drive
  • Luxury showers with underfloor heating; dog-friendly site
Not one national park, but two – with a National Landscape area thrown in for good measure. That’s what you get at Dales and Trails, a small, family-run and exclusive-use campsite on the edge of the spectacular Yorkshire Dales National Park. It’s also in pole position for excursions to the Lake District National Park or Forest of Bowland National Landscape (both around 40 minutes’ drive). Based on a working farm with views to the Three Peaks near Giggleswick (10 minutes), this rural site is also in a dark-skies area, so make sure you cosy up around the firepit on clear nights for the chance to watch the stars glittering across the heavens. Facilities here have been nicely thought out: guests have access to smart modern shower rooms with underfloor heating (bliss on a brisk Yorkshire day) and luscious toiletries provided. There are many scenic walks straight from the site, so dog owners, bring your pets too and exercise them among the untamed Dales scenery. Cyclists and bikers can relax, happy in the knowledge that there’s dry, secure storage for bicycles and motorbikes, and drivers can charge their electric vehicles too (for a small fee).

What customers say

Dales and Trails: stunning views, super clean, hosts Lauren & Charles are a delight. Luxury bathrooms are a highlight – best ever for many! Spacious, level pitches. Peaceful spot. Minor note: covered dishwashing area would be a plus. Highly recommended, guests keen to return.

Power optional cement/asphalt and grass campsite

Liked The beautiful location & the warm welcome from our lovely hosts who showed us around the site, recommended local walks & places to eat, brought us a fire pit & wood & generally made us feel very well looked after indeed. The showers & toilets were kept spotless throughout our 3 night stay.

Disliked Unfortunately the shower pressure dropped off quite a lot. Would have scored 10/10 if not for this.

Liked The lovely area and very good facilities and friendly welcome

Disliked The couples that stayed in the Cabin were very noisy playing loud music and singing very loudly, not all the time, but was a shame as we thought it would be a very quiet site.

Power optional grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked We had a great weekend at Dales and Trails. The site is really peaceful, the views are gorgeous and it's in the perfect place to head out on foot or in the car for hikes or walks. It's also in a great spot to watch the sunset and stargaze.

The owners are lovely and easy to contact if needed.

It also has the best toilet and shower facilities of any site we've stayed at, they're very modern and incredibly well maintained.

Disliked There's nothing to dislike.

Local attractions

The energetic among you will no doubt relish the challenge of hiking the Three Peaks (it’s 10 minutes’ drive to Ingleborough), or try climbing at Castleberg Rock (10 minutes) and fell running directly from the campsite. But there’s plenty of low-octane fun to be had too: have a potter around Malham Cove (25 minutes), or spot the stream trains chugging across sweeping Ribblehead Viaduct (25 minutes). Pretty Dales towns to explore include Hawes (40 minutes), where you can learn about local life in the Dales Countryside Museum and taste award-winning cheeses at Wensleydale Creamery. The market town of Giggleswick and its close neighbour Settle (10 minutes) are both packed with cosy old pubs, while in Skipton (half an hour), you can cruise the Leeds and Liverpool Canal on a day-hire barge. And talking of water, you can be cruising Lake Windermere in 50 minutes, fishing on Stocks Reservoir in the Forest of Bowland in 40 minutes, or following the circular trail to dramatic waterfalls at Ingleton (20 minutes).
