  • Small, peaceful site next to Aysgarth Falls in the Yorkshire Dales
  • Hawes, Bolton Castle and The Forbidden Corner within 15 minutes' drive
  • Large pitches with easy access from the A684; bar/restaurant next door
If you’re writing a list of the best spots to visit in the Yorkshire Dales, Aysgarth Falls is bound to be on it… And if you’re planning to visit Aysgarth Falls, well, where better to settle down for the night than a site within a few minutes’ walk? The falls are the main attraction here – they’re five minutes away on foot – but Aysgarth Falls Caravan and Camping Park has more to offer as well. For starters, there are lovely views out over Wensleydale from all of the peaceful pitches, and plenty of local footpaths to wander along nearby to seek out more scenery. It’s also handily placed just off the A684 for easy travels – oh, and it just happens to have a bar and restaurant next door serving up home-cooked local produce alongside some of Yorkshire’s finest ales… The pitches at this North Yorkshire site are fairly small in number but large in size, with access to essential amenities including a washing-up area, toilets and a heated shower block. Shops are 10 minutes’ drive away in Leyburn, and there’s a rather tasty prospect two miles away at the Wensleydale Ice Cream Parlour. Once you’ve spotted the falls and eaten the ice cream, what next? This location is within easy reach of several other attractions, including Bolton Castle, The Forbidden Corner and the Wensleydale Creamery as well as the many waterfalls, waterways and walks that the Dales are famed for.

Local attractions

With the falls being only five minutes away on foot, you’ll need to look a little further afield if you’re planning to hike in this area. A few local beauty spots to include on your trips might be Cauldron Falls (half an hour’s walk), Semerwater (15 minutes’ drive – and also a place to fish, swim or launch your kayaks/paddleboards) and Middleham Castle (15 minutes). Beyond all that, of course, is the entirety of the Yorkshire Dales – easy road access here means it’s straightforward to get out to popular places like Buttertubs Pass (25 minutes), Grassington (40 minutes) and Malham (an hour). The imposing Bolton Castle (10 minutes) and the ruins of Jervaulx Abbey (20 minutes) should be on your to-visit list too, as should the Wensleydale Creamery (15 minutes) for tasters of the area’s famous cheese. The weird and wonderful walkways of The Forbidden Corner (15 minutes) make a great day out too, especially if you’re looking for ways to get the kids outside.

Powered grass tent campsite

Liked: Tidy and well kept pitches, clearly marked.
Clean toilets and facilities
Easy to book and use
Great location with plenty to do around
Dog friendly but there are a LOT of rabbits.
Had no trouble or noise problems.
Easy greeting and map given for clear instructions of what is where.

Disliked: Communication was a little poor, emailed during stay to no response. Wasn't urgent.
Bins were untidy and weren't well marked but were at the entrance so barely noticed.
Needed mops in shower/toilets to help keep them tidy as after a shower would have been handy to mop any water before getting dressed. But were 100% tidy during stay.

Powered cement/asphalt RV campsite (small)

Liked: Proximity to Aysgarth falls and the very nice pub/hotel.

Disliked: Site was quite tatty, showers were quite unpleasant- shower curtains were very old and grubby, silicone sealant filthy and mouldy. All needs some good maintenance doing.
