  • 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.

Spacious, well-kept site in peaceful countryside with great views. Excellent, clean facilities (new showers!). Dog-friendly with secure field. Great for exploring Yorkshire Dales. Easy self-check-in and a good welcome pack.

Fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site

Liked Everything... fantastic little site. All very clean and well laid out.
The wash room facilities were exceptional...very clean and showers were amazing.( as previously mentioned a chair or shelf would be useful)
Loved being able to chose our own pitch,which was fully serviced,if a little uneven, but nothing drastic.
Information shed was very thoughtful and provided DVDs and games, books to borrow.

Disliked Limited phone signal, but nothing the site owners can really remedy.

Fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site

Liked Modern facilities, good sized pitches, better price than other similar campsites, nice to have a dog field on site.

Disliked Self-service check-in - although I understand the convenience, I usually prefer to interact with someone when checking in.

Liked Facilities block modern and spotlessly clean.

Pitches are a good size, spare water hoses and pitch markers an appreciated convenience.

Small site, quiet, dark sky makes for a lovely evening.

Mark & Dawn B.

Fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site

Liked One of the best sites we visit. Fully serviced pitches including tv aerial for each pitch (which we don't use) and wifi that works really well. Very spacious site with large, well-spaced pitches. Lovely views in all directions and very quiet and peaceful. If you get clear skies, the dark sky area means the stars are amazing. The new and improved facilities are brilliant. Luxurious shower and toilet block, washing up room and info hub.

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).
