  • Small family-run park over two secluded acres
  • A mile and a half from Bedale: handy stopover for the A1
  • Play area with café easily accessible in the local village
Off to the Yorkshire Dales? Or might you prefer the moors? Or… a bit of both? Pitch up at Pembroke Caravan Park in the village of Leeming Bar: it's only a mile and a half from Bedale, the small market town with easy access to the Dales and set snugly in between both the Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors national parks. (And it's a handy A1 stopover too if you're zooming up or down the country to or from elsewhere.) Pembroke is a friendly, family-run and popular little park set in two level and secluded acres. It has a cleanly-kept shower and toilet block, a laundry room, a chemical disposal point, and washing-up facilities. Barbecues are allowed on site. For drinks and dinner, a pub is in the local village and a small supermarket is 400 metres away. Please note that while there's no play area on site and ball games aren't allowed, a large play area (with café) is easily accessible in the local village.

This well-maintained, clean, and friendly site is praised for its excellent location, conveniently close to the A1 for stopovers and exploring Yorkshire. Visitors highlight the spotless facilities and the helpful, welcoming owners. While a few mention occasional road or aircraft noise and the limitation of single showers, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, with many recommending it and planning return visits.

Liked Very well kept site conveniently located to break our journey to Scotland. Friendly welcome, clean facilities and plenty of space around pitches.
Leeming Bar a short walk with supermarket and restored railway (Wensleydale line)
Only stayed one night will certainly use again when we travel to the far North and probably do a couple of nights next time to explore area a bit more.
Also had library with "swap" option!

Liked Very tidy and pleasant site. Facilities kept very clean and it was an ideal stop off on our journey north. Pub close by and locals were friendly.

Disliked Leeming Bar itself is a mixture of residential, industrial and commercial properties so does not have a holiday vibe about it.

Liked Close to A1 so good for stop over. Fairly peaceful, good facilities. Walking distance to village and pub.

Disliked The weather 🙂.
Road noise - but we chose it because it was close to the A1 so we can't complain. It didn't keep us awake.

Local attractions

One of the most spiffing things about the immediate area around Pembroke Caravan Park is the recently refurbished Wensleydale Railway, a short and non-puffy stroll away at the station of Leeming Bar. This takes scenery seekers on a 22-mile journey up into the Yorkshire Dales on its route from Northallerton to Garsdale – and as it's Yorkshire, you'll rightly guess it's all highly pretty too. Specialist local goods, services and shops are at the nearby market towns of Bedale and Northallerton, and a little further will take explorers to other worthy Yorkshire towns like Leyburn and Masham. Many of the highlights of the North York Moors and Yorkshire Dales national parks are also within easy driving distance of Pembroke, like Brontë and James Herriot country, more steam railways, old ramparts like Richmond Castle and, towards the east, access to Scarborough, Whitby and the wild Yorkshire coast.
