Liked Quirky, great staff, good amenities, lots of space, pub close by, excellent bacon rolls in the morning.

Disliked Not much though the area around the bins could do with clearing up.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Lovely quiet site, dark skies so lots of stars, friendly staff, nice on site cafe, lots to explore nearby.

Disliked Play area is a little way from the site, so didn't feel comfortable letting the kids go alone. Was quite windy and staff suggested it was often like that due to location.

ADAM P.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked The layout, plenty of locations to pick from and all close enough to the facilities and the cafe.
The campsite is quite picturesque and although close to a road in some areas, it's not a busy road and won't keep you awake.
Great kitchen, washing up and shower/toilet facilities with a farmyard feel/aesthetic. Clean enough and the showers were nice and warm at any time.
We were greeted by a lovely guy who explained everything, including nearest pubs and some walks, nice and laid back but professional.

Disliked The corrugated metal in the toilets/showers is very loud when closing and we could hear it from the tent (maybe add some rubber to the doors to soften?) and the frames hold water in the bottom which looks to go rotten, not a big deal, just a bit of feedback!

Liked Staff were really friendly. Quiet, Not rule based.
An excellent balance of glamping huts, motor homes and tents. Sometimes it can feel like people staying in tents are undervalued. We didn't feel that at all.

Liked Loved it all. Rustic, beautiful site and countryside. You can tell the owners are campers.... everything has been thought of....freezers/fridges/coffee/cafe/hot tubs/toilets & showers clean and very very friendly staff. The ladies in the cafe were brilliant and I met the owners son (I think) most helpful. We will be back.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Stayed here with my husband and 3 children for 3 nights tuesday to friday. We loved it, plenty of room to pitch up and really impressed with the facilities. We used the little kitchen area to charge our phones abd the showers were lovely and hot. We rented a fire pit for £15 and that kept us lovely and cosy at night. We went out to lightwater valley one day and had a few drinks along the local. Will definitely be coming back to try the hot tubs.

Local attractions

Popular picks for gentle ambles around here include the pretty Himalayan Garden & Sculpture Park (10 minutes’ drive), the ancient ruins of Fountains Abbey & Studley Royal Water Gardens (15 minutes) and the elegant gardens of Newby Hall (25 minutes), which also has a miniature railway in case of tired legs. Sustenance for such outings and for evenings in can be acquired over at Masham’s Black Sheep Brewery (15 minutes), at Pateley Bridge’s Oldest Sweet Shop In The World (20 minutes) or with a stop for a top-notch tea at Betty’s in Harrogate (25 minutes). Continue the laidback theme of your break with a bimble around Brimham Rocks or a round at the local golf course (both 15 minutes). Alternatively, take the opposite approach to holiday antics and get the adrenaline properly pumping on the rides at Lightwater Valley Theme Park (15 minutes) – there are more low-key rides for kids here too, so it's likely to be a winner all round.
