  • Scenic, well-equipped park in the Yorkshire Dales National Park
  • Spa, heated pool, gym, sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi on site
  • Coffee lounge and restaurant serving homemade food
You'll want a long, long stay at Long Ashes Park… This spectacular and well-equipped site is in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, where there are weeks' worth of hiking and cycling (including trails directly from the pitch). It also comes with an excellent range of leisure and foodie facilities to keep guests entertained and fuelled for exploring. Set in green countryside a couple of miles away from the North Yorkshire village of Grassington, the site is nicely placed for guests to be as active as they like. Scramble up one – or all – of the Three Peaks, tackle the Dales Way alongside the river Wharf or stride along to local villages like Thorpe and Hebden. If you're a keen cyclist, you could also take to two wheels along the 130-mile Yorkshire Dales Cycleway. Those who prefer to spend the holiday in a more leisurely manner can buy a spa day, facial or body therapy sessions at the Long Ashes Spa or linger for hours in the leisure club's heated pool, sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi (there's an extra charge for this). Handily, there's also a gym at the leisure club. The on-site Gamekeeper's Inn serves homemade lunch or dinner dishes and also hosts speciality nights such as fish Friday and Sunday lunch. If you'd prefer a light bite, the coffee lounge serves sandwiches, baked potatoes and other snacks alongside tea, coffee, soft drinks and wine. The facilities at Long Ashes Park include family bathrooms, each with a large shower, a toilet and a wash basin.

What customers say

Beautiful spot, great views, and super clean ablutions. Staff get a thumbs up, as do the pub, cafe, pool, and spa. Only niggle? Parking off-pitch means trolleys are a must, and they can run scarce during busy times.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked the toilet block was clean and very warm! Radiators on which felt toasty. Washing up liquid provided v good! Lots of water points and everything very accessible. Cafe nice. Pizza good but avoid garlic bread as it was v dry! On site pub great for a drink and food was standard pub food! Nice scenery, bunnies were cute and like the ducks too.

Disliked not enough trolleys to unload and reload car so it took absolutely ages to set up and take down. The leisure centre was fully booked when we arrived which was a real shame as this was one of the main reasons we booked the campsite. A nudge to get booked in early would be nice on booking.

Liked Great facilities, clean toilets/showers, pub on site and café was fantastic for breakfast. Never struggled to get a drink or food, no long waits. Visited August 2026.

Disliked Could do with more trolleys to carry things from the car to the tent.

Liked We had a wonderful camping trip at Long Ashes Park. Beautiful place with great facilities.

Disliked The only downside was not being able to park next to our tent. I had equipment that required the car for blowing up the bed including during the night if the bed went down a bit so this was a bit inconvenient.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Reccomended.

Local attractions

Travel two miles to Grassington for a day around its tearooms and shops, then drop into the Grassington National Park Centre for info on what to see and do nearby. Walks leave right from the centre or from the village, including a waterside wander by the River Wharfe to Linton Falls, hikes over Grassington Moors, or a potter around the Grassington Riverside & Woods trail (pick up a leaflet for this at the centre). Grassington is also on the Dales Way, the 80-mile route from Ilkley in West Yorkshire to Bowness-on-Windermere in Cumbria: hardy types can tackle the 13 miles from Grassington to Yockenthwaite, or hike in the other direction on the 16-mile stretch to Ilkley. For cycling, take the Yorkshire Dales Cycleway from Grassington to Ilkley and from there to Bolton Abbey. If you'd much (much) prefer sightseeing and shopping days instead, the market town of Skipton is within 15 minutes' drive and Harrogate is within 50.
