Spacious and green site

  • Spacious site between the Yorkshire Dales and Forest of Bowland
  • Within half an hour of the Three Peaks, Malham Cove and Gisburn Forest
  • Fully-licensed bar, shop and a popular pizza oven; bike storage
Got a bike? Get on it and pedal over to Dalesbridge, a cycle-friendly site between the Yorkshire Dales and the Forest of Bowland. Spacious and family-run, it is within half an hour's drive of all three Yorkshire Three Peaks for hikes up Whernside, Ingleborough and Pen-y-Ghent. First things first, though, head to the on-site shop to collect some local information and a map of the local area; many walking and cycling routes begin directly from the site. There is lockable bike storage on site for your valued two-wheeled vehicles, as well as a cycle wash area so you can hose the mud off after long days up hills and down dales. Half an hour’s drive away is the Gisburn Forest, where mountain bikers of all ages, fitness and nerve can pedal a route to suit. The Dales trails and Bowland bike paths aren't the only thing to look forward to, as Dalesbridge is a peaceful family site with spectacular scenery in all directions. There’s ample room, staff who are happy to help, and most importantly for mountain roamers returning with a thirst, a fully licensed bar (open at certain times). There is also a pizza oven and an on-site shop, where you can stop off for coffee, rolls and pastries at the weekend. Based in Austwick, the site is a 10-minute drive from the historic local market town Settle which has shops and supermarkets. The Settle-Carlisle railway is also a short drive away.

What customers say

A friendly, well-kept site in a beautiful spot with great walk access. Guests love the spacious pitches & on-site bar/pizza. Clean, ample facilities, though some note they're a bit dated. Welcoming staff. Many would return.

Powered grass campsite

Liked What a fantastic site. So much care and attention to everything and everything is spotless with the most amazing views 360 degrees. The bar is so cosy and the pizzas were the best I have had!! We can’t wait to come back and stay for longer. Nice so see so much wildlife around like the sheep in the next field, Cute rabbits basking in the sun and the most amazing sunsets. Ross is always on hand if you need anything. Highly recommended with a great vibe.

Disliked Nothing to dislike everything is perfect

Walkers cabin (four person, ensuite)

Liked Stayed in the walkers cabin with 3 kids, plenty space and great having the ensuite. Clean and tidy and good facilities for 1 night

Disliked The noise from the cabin next door, could hear every single word and this went on until 11pm then from 5am the next morning. Would suggest if some cabins are empty, like there were on our visit, to not put a family directly next to a group of 6 men when there were 3 or 4 empty cabins

Liked Spacious pitches, location near to good walking areas. Pizzas, bar. Helpful staff.

Disliked Some washing facilities overused, ie those by entrance would be good to have clearer directions to others.
Proximity to very busy road (but I know that can't be helped)

Liked Great location, lovely friendly staff, cabin was really clean, 100% value for money, stunning views, everything you want in a campsite

Local attractions

Starting 10 minutes away, the walk to Ingleton Falls is gentle but rewarding, and even though you’re heading deep down instead of up, the caverns and wild rock formations of Whitescar and Ingleborough caves make for unmissable wanders. For walks with wildlife, make the half-hour trip to Malham Cove, where a pair of nesting peregrine falcons can be spotted in the summer months, alongside resident populations of jackdaws and housemartins. You can climb the massive amphitheatre cliffs of the cove, or follow trails up and around taking in the glacial Malham Tarn and Janet’s Foss waterfall. To see some wildlife at closer quarters, the Settle Falconry Centre (five minutes' drive) has daily displays of flying and feeding and if you feel you’d like to soar through the skies, the Ribble Viaduct section of the Settle-Carlisle Railway makes a fair imitation. If all this outdoor, high altitude stuff has made you peckish, head over to the Wensleydale Creamery (40 minutes) to learn how the famed crumbly cheese is made… and then sample some, but of course.
