  • Scenic site at a fourth-generation farm in the Forest of Bowland
  • Pen-y-ghent 25 minutes' drive; half an hour to Malham Cove
  • Dark-skies area with campfires and barbecues permitted on site
A view? Well, Brayshaw View Glamping & Camping promises that in its name – and boy, does it deliver on that promise. This peaceful site, part of a fourth-generation farm on the Lancashire/Yorkshire border, sits right in that very sweet spot that looks out over the Forest of Bowland on one side and the Yorkshire Dales National Park on the other. All of this means views galore for guests, whether you’re heading out to explore or settling right there on site for a drink, a barbecue evening or a picnic while looking towards the Yorkshire Three Peaks. Being in a fairly remote location, the views don’t even stop at sunset – the dark skies here make for some fabulous stargazing on clear nights. How you choose to spend your days while you’re here is totally up to you – you may like to keep it local, strolling by the stream running through the farm, heading out on trails through nearby Gisburn Forest and stopping in at the local pub (10 minutes' drive/an hour’s walk) for a good meal and a pint of something local. Alternatively, you could use this place as a peaceful base for all sorts of adventures, perhaps climbing Pen-y-ghent, meeting the residents of Bowland Wild Boar Park or going underground at Ingleborough Cave. Back on site after your outings, you’ll have plenty of space to relax, and access to toilets and showers to get you cleaned up.

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Beautiful views and a great spot to spend time with friends. The campsite had a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, and the hosts were genuinely lovely and helpful. We really appreciated the flexibility with arrival and leaving times—it made the journey much less stressful. The fire-making kit was easy to get hold of, and it turned out to be a great place for stargazing too. Toilet facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the site was easy to find. Overall, a really enjoyable experience with welcoming hosts and a peaceful setting.

Disliked We weren’t quite sure where to pitch our tent when we arrived, as there wasn’t clear signage. While we were setting up, we were kindly advised to move further across, which was no problem at all—it just caught us off guard since the field was mostly empty aside from one other tent.

Also, we thought it would be helpful if the bin area had separate bins for general waste, recycling, and glass. Our group felt a bit guilty leaving mixed rubbish behind, as we would have been more than happy to sort it ourselves to make things easier for the team.

From the manager: Thankyou for your lovely review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us.
Points taken on board and extra bins are on order. Our signage unfortunately did not stand up to the horrible weather we had before your arrival, so more robust signage is being sorted for the summer. We look forward to hosting you again. Thanks Brayshaw View

A quiet site with amazing views. Excellent walks nearby and wildlife spotting…

Local attractions

This farm site is just on the eastern edge of the Forest of Bowland National Landscape, so you may like to start your outings there – perhaps with a walk or bike ride at Gisburn Forest (10 minutes’ drive), a trip across the Whitewell Stepping Stones (25 minutes) or an animal encounter at Bowland Wild Boar Park (35 minutes). Just the other side of the A65, the Yorkshire Dales National Park has a huge number of attractions and activities to try out as well. Intrepid visitors might like to climb Pen-y-ghent (25 minutes), or even complete the full Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge (Ingleborough and Whernside are both within 45 minutes; drive as well). Malham Cove, Janet’s Foss and the Ingleton Waterfalls Trail (all half an hour) are more easygoing alternatives – although not as easy as a relaxing ride on the Settle-Carlisle Railway (15 minutes). Other days out might take you to see stalactites and fossils at Ingleborough Cave (half an hour), to step into the dungeon and medieval kitchen at Skipton Castle (35 minutes) or to meet cute animals at Hesketh Farm Park (45 minutes).
