The Dalesbridge Reviews

Friendly welcome and wonderful location

Very warm welcome on a dark, drizzly Friday night! Straight to our pitch. Homely bar and the ability to pre-book homemade fresh pizza! Interesting history to the site, have a look when you get here. Beautiful time of year to see Austwick and Settle, great walk on the Saturday. 6 miles to Settle. Bus back to Austwick and a mile back to the site. Crisp cold and dry, Autumn doesn't get much better - beech trees in full reds, oranges and yellows! Amazing. We had a great weekend.

Lovely relaxing weekend!

Peaceful and friendly, with great views. Easy access lovely country pub on site with log burner fire.

Lovely campsite

Great campsite, facilities were great, location was spot on and staff very friendly. Only downside for me was that there could be a little more lighting in the communal areas. If you didn't have a torch, it was very dark trying to find your way to the toilets.

Nice campsite

Nice campsite, some noise from the road and not many showers. Stayed here for a couple of nights. I was on the far side where there are no electric connections. However, this is next to a lane where the tractors thunder up and down all night during the summer. It's also quite close to the the A65 so some road noise. There are 2 shower blocks, but even the closest one was quite a walk and only had 2 showers, I know it rained during my stay but they can get quite dirty inside. The pizzas were good and the onsite bar very welcome, but £5.60 a pint is a bit steep for up t'north!

Great spot!

This is a farm campsite with character! We enjoyed a peaceful two nights here on a hardstanding pitch with electricity in our 7.5m motorhome. The nearby town of Clapham had great parking and some wonderful walks from there. There were also plenty of walking available from the camp. The campsite itself has beautiful views over the dales. The facilities were clean when we first arrived but did get a fair bit of grass and mud traipsed through over the couple of days - it was right in the August school holidays though so probably busier than usual. Also a bar onsite. We loved seeing the stone walls and cows right over the wall that surrounds the camp.

Really good

Great location and good facilities. There were lots of wasps, however but the site had laid out wasp traps.

Okay stay

I was expecting more from the campsite from the pictures, the facilities are okay but very very basic. The shop was barely open and the site is literally a field. If that's what you would like, the views are amazing and the ground is flat for camping.

Not bad

Not bad for a couple nights. One of the blocks for the toilets is clean but it's small. 1 cubicle, 2 urinals and 2 shower cubicles but all in a small space. Couldn't use the showers as they didn't feel private enough. Wouldn't have been able to use the other toilet blocks as they reminded me of high school toilets. The shop shuts at 1pm which is a bit odd, but you can still check in the same space? You can get pizzas on a Saturday night but you have to book. If it was me surely make as many as people want? My kids had fun but unfortunately, we wouldn't go back.

Thank you, as a family-run site we are constantly improving our facilities and will keep your feedback in mind when doing further improvements. Our pizza oven is very popular and needs to be booked as the dough is made fresh. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you onsite again.

Great campsite within the Dales

A great campsite with a very modern toilets/shower block. Also has the added bonus of a shop and bar onsite. Located on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales, it is a great place to stay if looking to go for walks within the Dales.

Lovely

Fantastic place to stay with beautiful views…loads of kids having fun, which was brilliant having two young children ourselves. The only negative was the toilets/ showers, some of the doors didn't lock. We would stay again, staff were so helpful and lovely x

Thank you, we will look into those locks, we hope to see you onsite soon.

Great campsite

Great campsite, staff were very friendly and welcoming. The staff came to visit us on the site too, to make sure we were happy and whether we needed anything.

All round very good site

A really good site: spacious, good facilities, beautiful views and easy to get to. We’d happily stay here again.

Beautiful scenery

We were really happy with the site. The facilities were excellent. Very clean. Lovely location.

Beautiful location

Beautiful location, plenty of room on our pitch and owners very helpful. I would highly recommend this site. Could do with a few more showers but was only because it was busy bank holiday weekend.

Dalesbridge camping

Friendly staff, clean facilities, great oven fired pizzas, warm bar and good coffee in the morning.

Wet week in the Dales

Lovely site with all you need. Great drainage on pitches considering it rained a lot. However, the rain didn’t spoil our fun.

Fabulous site and highly recommended

Fabulous site. Very clean showers. Fabulous. Would recommend this site and we will be going back.

The Dalesbridge

Upon arrival we were told what pitch number we were on by someone. The office was shut and so was the bar and food place. Upon further investigation, we were told it only opens on Fri and Sat. Toilet and shower are very basic. Nearest village about a mile away.

Reasonable site

Reasonable site with peaceful, nice walks. Pub a little outdated, they could maybe offer hot drinks?

Perfect stay

Perfect location and perfect hosts.

First time campers

Our first time camping couldn’t have been any better despite the changeable weather. The site was brilliant. Highly recommend the pizzas! Clean facilities and plenty of them. We will definitely stay again!

Great site

Great site, really friendly staff, clean facilities and a nice bar!

Thank you for making our trip fabulous

Absolutely amazing! They went out of their way to make our camping experience a wonderful camp out. Especially Kas who made sure we had everything and supplied us with extras when we had come without! Could not recommend highly enough.

Great stay

The site was excellent, the location was great. Fabulous facilities and standard of service was good. The local village was lovely. Could do with a little spar shop for last minute things as the on-site shop was limited. Handy information regarding local walks would have been good. Found the main road very busy. Definitely visit again
