About the site
This tranquil site is ideal for those looking for some peace and quiet. Far from the bustle of cities, the only sounds you're likely to hear here are the chirping of birds, the buzzing of bees and the trickle of the River Wharfe. Being in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, you will also be spoilt for choice with great walking and cycling routes. For tent campers, there are five grass pitches available, each measuring a spacious 10m x 10m. Each pitch welcomes up to two guests to ensure the site is not too busy, and also comes with the option of a 16 amp hook up. There is also one hardstanding pitch for those travelling in a small campervan. The hardstanding pitch measures 10m x 7m and also allows up to two guests, with the option of a 16 amp electric hook up too. Fancy camping but don't have a tent? No problem, choose the simple, comfortable heated camping pods with a double bed, kettle, toaster, USB charging, under-counter fridge, induction hob and utensils. Please bring your own bedding, towels, cooking and washing up utensils. Each of the pods also comes with a decking out front, along with an outdoor table and chairs for al fresco dining. The pods are also set in a separate area from the tents so everyone has plenty of space. BBQs are also permitted, as long as they are raised from the ground and off the decked area. Please note, open fires are not allowed. Ideal for couples or solo campers, this adult only site does not accept groups. Please do not book as separate couples to then create a group. Sorry, no visitors are allowed onsite. Sorry, pets cannot stay.
