General
- Spacious dog-friendly site with spectacular views over the Pennine Way
- Within easy reach of the Yorkshire Dales and the Forest of Bowland
- Local pubs five minutes' drive away
Thinking of visiting the Yorkshire Dales National Park? Or maybe the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty? How about both?
Willowbeck Farm, on the edge of the little North Yorkshire village of Wigglesworth, is neatly located between the two, putting guests within easy reach of lots of scenic areas for walks, bike trails and horse riding. (Need tips on the top spots? Try the spectacular surrounds of Malham Cove or the Ingleton Waterfalls Trail, both around half an hour’s drive away).
Town attractions and amenities are handily nearby too: you’re five miles from the market town of Settle (where there’s also a supermarket if you don’t happen to be passing by on a market day) and around a half-hour drive from Skipton and Clitheroe for castle visits and plenty of independent shops to poke around in.
Back at base, you’ll be staying on a small, quiet and well-maintained adults-only site with smart toilet and shower facilities and a dog exercise area. If you fancy heading out for a meal or a drink, there are a couple of country inns, The Maypole and The Boar's Head, five minutes’ drive away in Long Preston.
Please be mindful that this is a rural site and the digital TV signal is very weak. Satellite hookups are provided, but you'll need your own freesat box and cable (or a built-in facility). Although there's no wifi here, there's usually great 4G mobile data coverage on site.

Local attractions
There are heaps of options around here if you’d like to stretch your legs – head a few minutes’ drive west for the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty or east to the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Popular spots include Gisburn Forest (15 minutes' drive), Malham Cove and Tarn (25 minutes) and Janet’s Foss waterfall (25 minutes).
To delve under the Dales, head to Ingleborough Cave (25 minutes); stick to the surface for trips to Settle Falconry (15 minutes) or the romantic ruins of 12th-century Bolton Abbey, set in a whopping 30,000-acre park (half an hour). Follow up by heading to Harrogate (50 minutes) to refresh at the famed Betty’s tearooms or Pateley Bridge (50 minutes) to peruse the shelves of The Oldest Sweet Shop In The World.
If you’ve overdone the exercise a little while roaming, take it easy for a while by heading to Skipton (25 minutes) to cruise along the Leeds and Liverpool Canal or settle down in a seat on the Settle-Carlisle Railway (10 minutes) for a scenic 73-mile ride through the spectacular countryside.

Gosh…we were mortified to learn that your water gathering experience was so obviously blighted by the top 10mm of the post being perished. It must have been a terrible shock for you. And, we can only imagine your dismay and horror when you were in the vicinity of the Elsan emptying point (not a septic tank) which other guests had the audacity to use…I’m afraid not everyone’s “number two’s” can radiate a lovely lavender fragrance…but when the lid is shut it does disappear.
We find it quite upsetting when people have to take to their keyboard to complain rather than do it face to face.
This is the first ever review we have responded to so we hope you feel special. Kindest regards Mick
