  • Relaxed family-run site on a farm in the Yorkshire Dales
  • A 15-minute drive from Malham Cove, Gordale Scar and Janet's Foss
  • Well-spaced hardstanding pitches with a large dog exercise area
Ash Keys Caravan Park is a family-friendly site in a quiet corner of a family-run 165-acre farm. This peaceful spot is at the southern end of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, half a mile from the teeny hamlet of Eshton and five minutes’ drive from more extensive amenities (pubs, takeaways and small supermarkets) in Gargrave. This is a most handy spot to settle in for outdoor activities: you can take walks or bike rides directly from the park, join nearby major trails like the Pennine Way (three quarters of a mile from the park), Way of the Roses and National Cycle Network Route 68. The fab attractions around Malham (Malham Cove, Janet’s Foss and Gordale Scar) are about a 15-minute drive away. The well-kept pitches here all have electricity and water hookups, plus access to a shared toilet block, Elsan point and recycling facilities. Dogs are welcome on site, and have been give their own dedicated exercise area where they can have a good run about. Barbecues are also permitted, and perhaps at their finest when graced with good food from one of the two excellent farm shops within a 10-minute drive.

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Lovely and quiet- lovely sunset over the trees. Nice field for walking the dogs in. Level pitches and clean toilet sheds - didn’t use the shower block as we were only there briefly overnight - en route home after a two week Outer Hebridean tour.

Sally T.

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Great location, in a beautiful setting with plenty of local information and a DVD library to help while away the autumn evenings. We can highly recommend the Frying Yorkshireman, which has an eat in licensed restaurant next door. Good WiFi included in the price.

Disliked There’s currently some building work going on to improve the amenities, which was noisy but no doubt will be completed soon.

Liked Clean and quiet, well kept site in an ideal walking location.
I think the building work is for a new shower / toilet block which will only add to the site.
Great price for a fully serviced pitch.

Jackie P.

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Layout and space between pitches. Quiet and peaceful. Lovely views. Water on each pitch, Wi-Fi. Ease of booking, communication, online payment and check-in arrangements, i.e. on arrival find a pitch you like and sign-in in the book in the summerhouse.

Disliked The toilets were basic - in a shed, and I think the showers were shared with the CL site which meant a bit of a walk. Not a problem for us as we are happy to our own facilities, but I appreciate some people aren't so keen to do that. However, there was some building work going on so maybe the owners are installing a new toilet and shower block? Mobile signal is weak but Wi-Fi is available which is sufficient most of the time although it can slow down a bit presumably when there's more people using it.

Local attractions

If you’re not planning lengthy rambles on the long-distance paths, set forth for some of the local highlights instead. Get going in Gargrave (five minutes’ drive) with a waterside walk by the Leeds-Liverpool Canal, then see cascades in action at Linton Falls (20 minutes). Make time for Malham too: a 15-minute drive gets you over to this fab village and its trio of top sights (Malham Cove, Janet’s Foss and Gordale Scar). After that, take an uphill challenge on the mountain paths of Pen-y-Ghent (35 minutes) or head underground to see what’s in store at Ingleborough Cave (40 minutes). Other ways to get about? Perhaps with a day of horse riding from Kilnsey or a rather more laidback trip on the Settle-Carlisle Railway – both are about 20 minutes’ drive away. And if you’ve got tiddlers who’d benefit from staying in one place for a while, there’s plenty to keep them amused among the animals, tractor tours and play areas of Hesketh Farm Park (20 minutes).
