喜欢: The view was absolutely amazing! There was easy access to some scenic walks, 15 minute walk into the town centre and the river nearby that you could get down to and sit by. The town centre had 3 good pubs that did food and a micro bar that was nice. The campsite had 3 toilets which were well maintained and stocked. The staff were very friendly, we had a good conversation with a lady and the man delivering fire wood was nice. We got fire wood delivered every night and you could pay by card. The pitch was a very good size. It was a good price for what it was.

不喜欢: There needs to be more toilets and showers for the number of guests (3 toilets, 2 showers). Unfortunately the bar wasn’t open at all due to under staffing, would’ve been nice to go there. There were a few unruly campers (not the sites fault) who didn’t respect the ‘rules’ of the campsite and played music loudly well into the night as well as drive their cars up and down the main pathway where children were playing.

来自经理: Thank you for your review and I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. We don't advertise or offer the bar in our advertising other than bank holidays and advertised events. Where we can, we open the bar/barn when it rains to give campers shelter. At 2230hrs Ben checked the site and it was quiet. At 0200hrs I received a phone call from a camper telling me that a group of campers were making a noise. Ben returned to the site and asked them to turn the music off and go to bed. 20 minutes later Ben returned and TOLD them to turn the music off and go to bed - which they did. I apologize to anyone disturbed by this noise & behaviour - as did my mother who visited everyone on site the next morning. For anyone reading this who plans to visit, please call us if any unruly behaviour starts - we'll deal with it before it gets to 0200hrs. At 0900hrs the next morning, the unruly campers were got out of bed, supervised in tidying up and told to leave the site, return to Blackpool and never return. Sincerely Brian

喜欢: The view - gorgeous. Fires are allowed. Nice guy on reception.

不喜欢: I would not recommend this campsite to anyone who wants a modicum of comfort. The toilets were less than basic and there were no washing facilities - personal or for cooking - beyond standpipe taps dotted here and there. The showers (a good five minute walk away from where we were sited) were £3 a time, which is disgraceful. The road through the campsite was a mud bath and it was the only walking route to the inadequate toilet block. The place felt like an unfinished project. I have stayed in campsites with basic facilities before, but this was inadequate in the extreme.

来自经理: On the bank holiday weekend that you visited, 56 families stayed with us. No one has paid for a hot shower at our campsite this year - there is no charge. I can only conclude that you gave £3 to someone else - or maybe you didn't visit the showers at all and read last year's reviews to find something to complain about...? Everyone selects their own pitch on the campsite. The closest pitch to the showers is a 135 metre walk. The furthest pitch is a 280 metre walk. Of course, you also had the option to drive to the showers if this was too far for you. There is a sink with washing facilities in the middle of the campsite. You are correct, there are also 6 standpipes in the field with mains water. I don't know what you were washing, but if this wasn't adequate, all you had to do was ask us and we would have let you use our pressure washer. The toilet block contains porcelain, flushing toilets that are inspected and cleaned every 3 hours (and restocked with toilet roll)..... I'm uncertain what you want from a toilet? There is an aspect of personal responsibility. You booked a grass pitch on a grass campsite. It rained for the week prior to your arrival. Not one car or camper van got stuck all weekend. Yes, after a weekend of traffic there was a little mud on the tracks. If that was too much for you then might I suggest that a grass campsite in mid-May in northern England might not be what you are after....and if you are, you might be advised to delay booking until you can confirm the weather forecast. Comfort - I genuinely don't know what more you want us to provide. Notwithstanding everything mentioned above, we opened a barn when it rained with a bar, pool table and background music. The "nice guy" that you mention visited every few hours to ask if he could get you anything - and you didn't ask for anything. Sincerely Brian

喜欢: Pretty location

不喜欢: Very basic No electric hook ups Water not very accessible due to other guests

来自经理: In the week that you visited, we had 80 families stay with us, this was the only negative review and we received a lot of positive feedback throughout the week. I appreciate all feedback, but please review us on what we advertise. We don't offer electric hook ups - we never have. For those interested, we live adjacent to a frozen food distribution centre who employ 40+ local people. The electrical infrastructure in the Yorkshire Dales is limited and our sub-station is at capacity. Electricity Northwest could give us more power, but it would impact their business and I won't do it. In due course, we'll install solar panels (when we get permission off the National Park) and that'll allow us to offer electric hook ups. With regard to water, there are 6 mains water taps on site. The main water point (with a hose) is at the entrance, next to the toilets. The review below recognizes that our team are around the site throughout the day, if you were having difficulty accessing water, all you had to do was ask. Sincerely Brian

喜欢: Absolutely everything! Great campsite, beautiful views, Ben was so accommodating and fantastic and a great laugh! They have a bar, they have animals, they have showers, they come round every evening with firewood and every morning to collect rubbish and ask how your stay was. It was so good we ended up extending our stay. A stone throw away from Sedbergh town and easy access to both the dales and the lakes. There are some beautiful waterfall walks surrounding the campsite - and you can choose to stay on the upper field or the lower which both offer different sets of stunning views. Furthermore - all the proceeds of this campsite go to charity, which Ben was telling us about and told us his personal story and how the owners of this campsite helped him so much. We will most definitely be back very soon. Thank you all!

来自经理: For others reading this review, if there are any difficulties or you can't find anything when you stay with us please just ask or let us know. There is a hand washing sink in the middle of the camping field. There's also a tap with mains water outside the toilets. The (free) showers work fine. When a couple of people (out of hundreds) have had difficulty with them, we have asked them to set the mixer tap and give it time for the hot water to come through - and they've been fine. With regard to additional facilities: Free fire pits Free access to the barn with seating, free bouncy castle, pool table, tables, chairs, etc Animal feeding .......everything identified in the listing is provided.....almost all of it free/included in the price. We are on site throughout the day and night, please just ask us if you can't find anything or have any questions. Regards Brian
