About Shay Gate Farm Campsite
A family friendly tent campsite where the vibe is simple and back to nature on this working farm. Being by the border, there's lots to see in both Lancashire and Yorkshire. Pitches are grassed, without electric to suit tents, campervans and motorhomes with a maximum of six people per pitch. You can light up a fire in the fire pit or get the BBQ going from your pitch. Walkers are drawn to the Pendle Way (a five minute drive) but there are also local beauty spots such as Pendle Hill and Gisburn Forest to tackle, with a set of walking and cycling routes. A maximum of four dogs are allowed per pitch for an additional cost, just please keep them on the lead.
Shay Gate Farm Campsite is open from 23/05 to 29/09.
Site facilities include toilets and showers within a converted trailer.
You'll find three country pubs (which serve food) in walking distance a great food market at Skipton. Colne includes, shops, takeaways and eateries. Golf and horse riding are within the wider area.

The site was not what I expected, it was much more. The facilities are close by for all camping there, the grass was kept low and healthy. The young lady, who worked day and night to ensure all was well with her guests, was constantly cleaning up and making sure everyone was attended to. Very attentive lady. We only stayed 1 night to try out our new tent and had only just returned from a week away elsewhere. I would recommend this site and we will use it much more often as we are locals.

Great site with fantastic views. Facilities are basic, but adequate and kept clean. Lots of hot water via the combi boilers located in the trailers. I made the mistake of pitching next to the road, which is 60mph and can be very noisy. Overall good and would recommend.
