Peaceful and family-run site next to the Forest of Bowland
In a walkers' paradise near the Yorkshire Three Peaks
A variety of pre-ordered homemade pizzas on Saturday evenings

These routes are made for walking… Orcaber Caravan and Camping Site is in the Three Peaks area of the Yorkshire Dales National Park for hikes up Whernside, Ingleborough and Pen-y-Ghent, and right next to the wanders and strides of the Forest of Bowland, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Many more walks and footpaths start directly from the site; get a map from the site information office to show you on your way. Based at the village of Austwick and five miles from the market town of Settle on the edge of the national park, Orcaber is a peaceful and family-run site, set among outstanding scenery with horses and sheep grazing in the neighbouring fields. Dogs are welcome (on leads on site at all times please) and a big field with stream is allocated as a dog walk area on site. Pitches at Orcaber are large, flat and well drained. Facilities include separate ladies' and gents' showers with plenty of hot water; toilets; a freezer with coolbox ice packs, and an info room with details of local attractions, events – and those many local walks. A variety of pre-ordered homemade pizzas are available on Saturday evenings.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Plenty of space to pitch the tent and I liked the area in the middle for the children to kick a ball around. The showers and toilets were nice and clean. The staff were nice and helpful.

Disliked: Not a dislike but a play area in the middle near the football goal would be great. I always prefer to stay at campsites with play areas.

Dan B. May 2025

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: The camping field is a free-for-all and because I turned up relatively late on a glorious day, I thought I might have an issue.

It was very busy but I found some level space in a good spot to watch the sun set.

The toilet/shower facilities are great, as is the location. Staff are very friendly.

Although it was busy (warm May Saturday) everyone was respectfully quiet after sun down.

The pizzas looked good, although I didn't have one.

Disliked: No plugs for the washing up sinks but I understand why. Just bring a washing up bowl :)

Camping pod

Liked: For the moment we got there and arrived at reception it was beautiful such a lovely place with amazing views.

We used the toilets before checking in after our drive, they were lovely and clean plenty of lighting and adequate space. Also music was on which was different.

We then checked in reception which was fast and hassle free. In the reception was also a shop that offered everything you need that could have been forgot even if it was a bag of ice they had you covered.

We then drove around to our pod which was also clean and even had a picnic bench outside if you had no chairs.

They offered Saturday night take away which you could order online or at reception which was an amazing idea think everyone on the camp site placed an order. Then you was given a time slot for collection.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a detailed review. We are so glad to see that you were impressed with what we have to offer here at Orcaber. Web hope to welcome you back in the not too distant future.

Local attractions

The Three Peaks of Whernside, Ingleborough and Pen-y-Ghent in close range are a topping location for walkers – if you're here to hike, see if you can complete the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge to tackle the 24 miles around all three in one day. Orcaber Caravan Camping Site is also near the famed Ingleton Waterfalls Trail for woodland-based walks among spectacular northern scenery, and within easy driving distance of the waterfalls, stalactites and tours of the spectacular White Scar Caves, the longest show cave in the UK. Also recommended by the Orcaber team are the Settle to Carlisle railway line, through 73 miles of spectacular countryside through the Yorkshire Dales and the North Pennines, and passing splendid Ribblehead viaduct. The limestone formation of Malham Cove, a famed Yorkshire Dales beauty spot, is also a popular local spot. Yet more walks, hikes and heaps more spectacular scenery are at the Lake District National Park, about an hour's drive away.
