  • 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, water hookups and grey waste drains. The facilities block houses toilets and showers, a washing-up area and an information hub, and there are also recycling facilities and an Elsan point close by. Dogs are welcome on site and have 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 three excellent farm shops within a 10-minute drive.

What customers say

Ash Keys boasts roomy, serviced pitches in a tranquil rural spot, perfect for discovering the Yorkshire Dales. Visitors laud the spotless, up-to-date facilities, especially the new toilet/shower block. Self-check-in, pitch choice and the secure dog field are big hits. Wildlife and dark skies are a bonus. Though a stroll to the main showers is mentioned, overall reviews rave about the peaceful vibe and superb value.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Small, pretty and quiet site.
Pitch black and silent overnight making for a great night's sleep.
Friendly greeting.
Felt relaxed.
Local info, walks, pubs etc in check in hub.
Clearly signposted from main road.
Impressive toilet/ shower rooms.

Disliked Slightly scary approach roads - not their fault!
Maybe signpost to Elsan disposal point a little more clearly?

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Nice site, our second visit here. Quiet location. Easy arrival process. Pick your own pitch. Good dog run area. Clean and new amenity block. Well located for Yorkshire Dales. Good value for money site.

Disliked Been a bit picky but pitches could be more level and slightly better maintained. The grassed area around the pitches and the site could do with a cut.

Liked Peace and quite guaranteed. Great location for visiting some of the most stunning locations in the Yorkshire dales. Good sized pitches and a new toilet block that’s in excellent condition.

Disliked The road around the toilet block is what I would call work in progress.

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).
