Pennine View Caravan Park

Loved the campers kitchen. Lots of clean pots and pans. Use of induction hob for 30 minutes was £1… ample time to make pasta and pesto or any other quick meal. Kettle and toaster. A seating area with dining table. Also lots of USB charging points in the kitchen for backpackers phones, who don't have electric hook ups. Liked the main large shower block which was exceptionally clean and well kept at all times. The user controls the shower temperature on this site, which is great. We hate preset showers cos they're always way too hot. Handy loos and shower in the camping field which were raised up and had a covered decked area so you weren't trailing mud into and out of the loos. Very peaceful site and really close to the river. Kirkby Stephen is literally on the doorstep so very handy for supplies. It's also great for exploring Yorkshire, Cumbria and Durham. The site is small, clean, well cared for and the staff are really friendly and always have a smile. We stayed on EHU camping pitch.

Liked everything about this site

Amazing little gem of a site! Amazing facilities in a stunning area, after 20 years of campervan travelling it was like the best part of all the good sites we’ve stayed on rolled into one!

The site was easy to find on a decent A road. Pitch was level and plenty of space. Site was kept tidy and facilities were clean. Excellent location, just outside Kirkby Steven, which had a big Co-op, cafes, takeaways and basically everything you might need. Beautiful riverside walks, straight off the site. Excellent pubs in Ravenstonedale and Nateby, a short drive away. The Engine Shed on the site is also great; friendly, cosy and serves ‘street food’ in the evening. Sometimes a fire pit was available in the outdoor area, and there’s a comfy shelter to sit out in with friends. Wardens were very welcoming and helpful. When the power went off on the site for a few hours they were extremely helpful, giving us updates and practical help. We’re planning to come back next year.

The toilet and shower block were a bit dated and water temperature was variable. We were informed that the whole block is going to be updated over the winter break. There is some road noise. We found it intrusive at first, but got used to it and barely noticed it by the second day, and we were in the pitch closest to the road!. The road isn’t visible from the site, because the site is in a disused quarry (?) several metres below the level of the road.
