View of the site from Langcliffe Scar across the valley

Family-friendly site on an estate on the banks of the Ribble river
A 10-minute drive from Settle and 20 minutes from Malham Cove
On-site Knights Table serves homemade cuisine and local ales; fishing

Gallop forth to Knight Stainforth Caravan and Camping Park if you require a river Ribble base in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, a mere couple of miles from Settle and on the roomy estate of a manor house which once belonged to the Knights Templar. The estate is the 45-acre Knight Stainforth Hall, dating back to pre-Norman times and a nifty base for digging into the dales and visiting the Lake District 40 minutes' drive away. It has been run by the Maudsley family since 1927, and these days, it has a toilet and shower block with hot showers, laundry facilities and a washing-up area. Junior knights (knightettes?) can charge around the ball games area and playground. There are battery charging and cool block freezing facilities available, as well as a shop with an off-license selling basic supplies, camping accessories and gas refills. Fishing is available on site; just pick up a permit at reception before setting out to see what you can reel in. When you feel peckish, take your seat at the on-site Knights Table restaurant to tuck into homemade cuisine and local ales. It's also a 10-minute drive from the site to Settle, where there are plenty of other shops and restaurants.

Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked: Loved the surrounding views, campsite is very well kept, facilities are spotless. Lots of local walks. Knights Table next door is highly recommended for food.

Disliked: There are only 3 showers, so can imagine it gets busy during peak season.

Liked: good location, great bar and restaurant clean site good showers and toilets very helpful staff at reception. great river walk and village nearby with pub.

Disliked: very uneven hardstanding pitch under trees, should really separate tents from motorhomes and caravans only due to maneureving in and out of pitch. Bit too isolated for us from towns great for a short stay. Really BAD t.v. reception. otherwise pleasent stay apart from bad weather.

Liked: WOW what a find. First class from the moment we arrived to the point we left. Really relaxing, friendly, clean site. We stayed two nights on a grassed pitch with hook up. Even sampled the food and drink at the Knights Table on site for Sunday lunch which was also first class. We will definitely be back with friends. Thankyou

Disliked: Absolutely nothing

Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked: We liked everything. The staff at reception were friendly and explained where our pitch was and where all the facilities are. The toilet/ shower block was always clean when we went across-in the block is toilets, showers, laundry, baby changing room and attraction leaflets. We had sheep had our neighbours the pitch sizes are great 😊 the chemical waste, waste water facilities were always clean as well. They’ve a pub on side with its own restaurant- great range of drinks. Friendly staff in pub. The full caravan site was clean and tidy. Access on site is via a code for the barrier which is also used for access to the toilet block. Great views- would definitely recommend if you’re touring, motorhome or even a tent. Would definitely visit again 😊

Disliked: Nothing

Local attractions

Once you've settled a few days strolling, cycling or cantering in the countryside surrounding Knight Knight Stainforth Caravan and Camping Park (the Pennine Way is close by too if you want to walk 267 miles or so), take a few day trips to find out what else is around: caving, waterfalls, the Lake District and market towns are all easily accessible. Prefer something easier? The superb Settle to Carlisle railway can be picked up a couple of miles away. Cavernous caves and climbing are both for the taking in the area to dig into: White Scar Cave, the longest show cave in England, is nearby at Ingleton and Ingleborough Cave is a little to the east. Tours are available at both. From Malhamdale, clamber the three famous landmarks, Malham Cove, Malham Tarn and Gordale Scar, or walk around all three in the eight-mile clockwise walk from Malham. (More climbing? The Yorkshire Three Peaks of Pen-y-ghent, Ingleborough and Whernside await.) Another well-trodden trek in the region is the Ingleton Waterfalls Trail, starting and ending at Ingleton on a four-mile rocky road along the River Twiss and past the Pecca, Thornton Force, Beezley Falls, Rival Falls and Snow Falls waterfalls. Or take things a bit easier and wander around the local market towns of Settle, Skipton and Hawes to pick up local produce to have back at base.
