  • Peaceful Yorkshire Dales site with views of Pen-y-Ghent
  • A 15-minute drive from Settle; steam train rides pass the site
  • Dog-friendly site within walking distance of three country pubs
Well, isn’t this a really rather fine rural setting – on the banks of the River Ribble and within easy rambling distance of restorative pints at one of Horton-in-Ribblesdale’s three country pubs: how fab… Cragg Hill Farm is in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, and the views from this peaceful place won’t let you forget that for even a sec. Gaze in one direction and you'll hopefully see Pen-y-Ghent towering over the site; turn the other way and you might just catch a glimpse of the Settle-Carlisle Railway trains wending their way through the scenic surrounds. Settle is a 15-minute drive to the south; as well as being the launch point for train rides, it’s also a good place to source supermarket supplies (or have a swim or a game of golf if you’re shunning such mundanities as shopping). For other days out, it’s recommended you look not much further than roaming around the Yorkshire Dales – although you could also consider hitting the coast at Morecambe, an hour’s drive away, if you’re yearning for a bit of sea air. Back at the farm, life is pretty laidback, with no noisome ents to interfere with the peace, just toilets, hot showers and a washing-up area to keep you and your kit clean.

What customers say

Spacious, quiet campground with lovely rural views, perfect for hiking and the Yorkshire Three Peaks. Guests rave about clean facilities, including hot showers, and ample, well-kept sites. A short walk to pubs and villages, it offers great value. Mostly positive with plans to return.

Primitive grass and earth tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Loved the site, it was completely flat and there was loads of space. Some occasional trees for shade. Right next to the stream so we fell asleep listening to it bubbling along. We got to see the ste train going by too. Easy access to the local village but secluded so no road noise. Good toilet and shower facilities.

Primitive grass and earth tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked A lovely campsite at the foot of Pen-y-Ghent. No allocated pitches so you could go where you wanted, still plenty of room on a sunny bank holiday weekend. Facilities, toilets and showers are limited but in clean condition and again didn’t have to queue. Great campsite, will definitely return.

Primitive grass and earth tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked From the start, the communication was excellent, with a request to pump the airbed as our 12v wasn’t working, with the owner asking on arrival if we still needed it (we didn’t). Arrival process was easy; self selection of pitch location; excellent pitch; excellent showers that were always hot and; hot pot was and ample toilets and mains water throughout.

The physical location is perfect, with an amble to Horton or Helwith Bridge along the river. We would 100% recommend this site, based on the management, location and clean, well maintained facilities. The ask, would be to have my same spot as it was throughly enjoyable and everything we could ask for. Good work team Craghill !

Disliked Not one thing - perfect in many ways

Local attractions

This is a mighty fine part of the Yorkshire Dales National Park to be based in, as it’s within easy reach of several fab sights. Malham Cove and Malham Tarn, half an hour away by car, combine to make an excellent day’s walk; the Ingleton Waterfalls Trail (25 minutes’ drive) is another that’s worth walking. If it’s not walking weather, get underground at White Scar Cave (20 minutes) or Ingleborough Cave (35 minutes). Not active enough? Those for whom Pen-y-Ghent is not so much scenery as a challenge can set out from the site for the climb to the 694-metre peak. Follow up by scaling slightly taller Ingleborough (also accessible on foot from the farm) and taller-still Whernside (15 minutes’ drive) to tick Yorkshire’s Three Peaks Challenge off your list. You may like a little sit down after all that (or instead…) and a fine place for that is in a seat on the Settle to Carlisle Railway, which you can board at the nearest station a mile away in Horton-in-Ribblesdale. Even if you’re not up for the ride, you may like to take in the view of the Ribblehead Viaduct (15 minutes), famed for many as the route taken by the Hogwarts Express.
