Of all the campsites we’ve visited over the years, this campsite is one of the best we have ever stayed at. All pitches are well planned, spacious and considerate of other ‘campers’. The shower and toilet facilities are outstanding and there is plenty of them, that you don’t appear to have to queue. Showers are hot😊. Beautiful location. We will return to explore more of the local countryside.
Lovely location, excellent amenities and great staff

Great site. Family friendly. Great views and walks nearby. Facilities were excellent as were the staff. Alpacas - bonus! Highly recommend this site, lost only one point out of 25 as a steep pricing compared to some.
Superb site, brilliant facilities and friendly staff!

The site is a great location for walks, either in the hills or along the river to Bolton Abbey or up to Grassington. The site itself isn't too big, so easy to get around. Toilet facilities are modern and regularly cleaned. Great little shop for top ups and they hire fire pits! Feeding the Alpacas was an added bonus! Very peaceful site but also has a play area for younger kids. The staff were superb - very helpful and friendly. We'd definitely return!

We have totally fallen in love with the Yorkshire Dales. The site is so well positioned to be able to walk straight to so many beautiful places along the River Wharf. Howgill Lodge Campsite is so peaceful, the views are amazing and we were blessed with fabulous weather and watched the sunset each evening with just the sound of the birdsong all around us. The site facilities are immaculately clean and the staff could not have been any more helpful.

Fantastic site, lovely staff, facilities so clean, I really can't fault this site. We were in a small campervan and our friends in a motorhome, but would recommend no matter what you are staying in.

Lovely campsite with not just alpacas, but lots of ducks and wild rabbits! The pitches do closely overlook one another, however the site was so quiet and peaceful. Very clean facilities and friendly owners. Will return!
Perfect little break

Really good amenities, up to date and clean. Toilets, showers. Laundry room, extra freezer room if needed. Wardens were friendly and helpful. The site is beautifully set out, tiered so that everyone gets an uninterrupted view of the glorious scenery. Then there were the Alpacas! The dog field was massive. Well managed. We will be back!

The site was well appointed and super clean. It sits over a number of levels, so everyone has a bit of a view and not looking into the next caravan or tent. One of the nicest sites we've been to so far.
Really fabulous campsite

A lovely site, with gorgeous views. I really enjoyed staying here. The only bug bear was a really late arrival at about 10pm in the pitch next to us, which disturbed us whilst they set up. Other than that, it was lovely. We'll be back next year
Amazing time

Loved it, I only stayed for a night but the girl on the reception was lovely and very helpful! I went to try and see the meteor shower and the view was amazing.

A great location and marvellous views, although access is a little difficult with single lane roads and gravel track. Not a problem, just be aware. Otherwise, a fantastic place.
What an amazing find this is!

Gosh, we have stayed at some campsites in our time, but this site out performs everything we have experienced before and we had a great stay. Fantastic views, first class facilities, friendly staff and a perfect situation in the countryside. Lovely local pubs and a superb cafe just down the road. We will be back as soon as we can get there. Thanks very much.

When I booked this site I thought it was expensive, but didn't have many options at short notice for where I needed to be, so went ahead anyway. However, when I saw the effort that had gone into creating this little gem on the hillside, and the standard of maintenance, the pricing appeared justified. The toilets and showers must be the cleanest I have ever seen on a site. Unfortunately, I missed out on the fresh coffee available from the little shop on both days, but the smell was divine, and there appeared to be a useful stock of staple items available. There are a variety of well-spaced pitches for various set-ups, and the tranquil location is idyllic, with a lovely dog exercise field to hand that is enclosed by stone walls, with mown paths across natural meadow terrain. Would certainly stay again if up that way.

The staff were lovely and very helpful, they went above and beyond to assist with all our needs. Site was immaculate and shower block was spotless and modern. Pitches were level and spaced out amenities on site were great. There were lots of places nearby to visit.
Site good once you have got there!

Site good once you have got there! Friendly and helpful staff. Clean and modern facilities and hot showers. No directions or advice before arrival. Most obvious is through Bolton Abbey Estate entrance whose arch helpfully has a sign of height restriction of 10 feet something, but is quiet on the width which is 2.8m. Fortuitously, not a problem for our arrival but would have been helpful for those a little broader in the beam. In a small campervan tackling the next obstacle "Barden Bridge" was a bit tight and for my fellow camper with behemoth style caravans and motorhomes, would not be so contented.
Perfect site!
