About Thornbrook Barn
This peaceful 42 pitch touring and glamping site nestled on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park is a great choice for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life. Many amenities, pubs, restaurants, cosy cafes and attractions are within walking distance, so you won't need to use your car! A 'hail and ride' bus service is close to the site entrance for services to Kirkby Lonsdale, Settle and Skipton, along with the delightful Dales villages en route. There are 12 hardstanding pitches with 16 amp electric hook up, as well as an additional 30 fully serviced hardstanding pitches. These serviced pitches come with the added extras of water supply and grey water waste. Both pitch types are suitable for caravans, campervans and motorhomes up to 9m, with many pitches being separated by hornbeam hedging for extra privacy. There are three luxury studio glamping lodges sleeping up to two adults in a king-sized bed with luxury bedding and pillows. Each lodge is fully heated and insulated and parking is close by. The spacious open-plan kitchen is fully equipped with a microwave, fridge, freezer, ceramic hob, coffee machine and cooking utensils and crockery. The living room is complete with a sofa and chair along with a smart TV so you can feel at home and still watch your favourite shows. The lodges have an ensuite shower room with a rainfall shower, toilet and vanity sink. Outside you'll find stunning views from your terrace, with a BBQ and pizza oven, outdoor dining table and chairs and your own private hot tub, perfect for admiring the starry night sky! The lodges are pet free. This is a great stop for tourers looking to park up and explore, or glampers looking for a little extra luxury. The local village play area is just a 15 minute walk away, perfect for keeping the little ones entertained. The site does not have a designated play area and ball games are not permitted on or around the site. If you are wanting to enjoy a spot of al fresco cooking, BBQs are also welcome, as long as they are raised off the ground. However, please note that campfires are not permitted. Dogs are welcome on the touring pitches only with a maximum of two per pitch. There is even a spacious enclosed dog exercise area where your four-legged companions can enjoy some off-lead freedom. Please ensure the site has your vehicle registration number as an ANPR barrier is in place to access the site and lodges.
The site is open from 1st March until 31st October and 21st December to 3rd January.

This was our first visit to Thornbrook Barn. The site is very spacious, the facilities are modern and spotlessly clean. We stayed on a fully serviced pitch, which was very spacious with fantastic views over Ingleborough. It is central for visiting Malham, Ingleton, Kirby Lonsdale, Hawes and many more picturesque villages and towns with numerous different walks, including the three peaks. Our battery went flat on us, but Alan let us use his charger, which was a godsend, especially over the Christmas/New Year period. The booking process was so easy and Sandra kept us updated on progress. Everyone on site was very friendly with attentive owners and staff. We cannot wait to visit again and will definitely be returning. Highly recommended.

We have just come back from this lovely campsite. Words cannot describe how lovely this site is. First time visit and most definitely not the last. No check in, you receive pitch number through email (we were on pitch 41). Pitches big and amenities block lovely and clean with piped music. Really quiet and peaceful, lovely views and nice walk to the village. Harvest Country Store over the road from the entrance is fab. It has a gift shop, coffee shop and butchers and bread etc and wasn't hard to cross the road. Hopefully be back next year.

Things to do on site and in the Ingleton area
Walkers will enjoy the challenging Three Peaks Walk, 24.5 miles at once - or a peak each day for three days - it's your choice! Whernside is the highest at 736m, followed by Ingleborough at 723m, and Pen-y-Ghent at 694m.
There are plenty of other strolls and hikes locally too. The nearest valley is Kingsdale, from which you can access Whernside on a long circular walk returning via Swales Moor, or the shorter Kingsdale circuit (10 minutes) which takes in the fantastic limestone scenery with its 'pots' and caves.
A more strenuous walk would be stepping over into Lancashire taking in Gragareth - one of the highest mountains in the area.
The Pennine Bridleway-Yorkshire Dales section can be accessed at Clapham (15 minutes) along a quiet B road. There is also a local trail known as The Crummock Dale Dabs Mountain Bike route from there, while Ingleton is a great base for caving, abseiling, climbing, and other adventure sports.
Around half an hour away, Hawes offers a tour of the Wensleydale Cheese Factory, the cheese that Wallace and Gromit made famous.
Other local attractions include:
- Ingleton Waterfalls Trail (5 minutes)
- White Scar Cave (10 minutes)
- Inglebrough Cave (15 minutes)
- Ribblehead Viaduct (15 minutes)
- Dent (30 minutes)
