Great site - clean, tidy and well equipped. A wonderful view over Wharfedale to get up to in the morning - splendid. Booking was easy and the check-in arrangements worked very well. As well as the nearby pub, there is also a public footpath that leads down into Menston - a Sainsbury's local and the railway station await at the end. A really useful couple of facilities. Remember a torch though and sensible footware. The site listing mentions overflight from the airport; we noticed a few planes, but were not disturbed by them. Electricity arrangements seemed a little expensive at £10/day, but I'm not sure we got it right and perhaps it was possible to buy electricity at £10 a time. Something to clarify and it certainly won't stop us staying again.

Thanks for taking the time to review the site and pointing out the great walk to Menston and access to the train station. I appreciate your comments on the cost of electricity and would like to explain further. At £25 per night per pitch including 2 people and a car, we think that the cost of our pitches are really reasonable. We acknowledge that some people use more electricity than others, however, when audited, the average cost of electricity used per night is £10. Modern caravans and motorhomes have blown air heating / hot water tanks and underfloor heating. On one occasion, we had one motorhome that used £28 worth of electricity in 18 hours. As a business, we buy electricity at market value and we are not protected by price caps as households and residential consumers are. When we compare the overall price of a pitch with electricity compared to other campsites, we believe we are still excellent value for money. But, we will continue to monitor it and if the situation changes with the increase of solar panels on caravans, we will happily reduce the cost of electricity.
Highly recommend this lovely campsite

Stayed in a glamping pod for 1 night with 4 adults and 2 dogs, plenty of space to fit us all in. The campsite itself was very clean and all facilities needed were included. The location was great with plenty of options for walks and nearby pubs. There is a stunning view of the countryside from the glamping pods. Easy check-in. Staff were polite and friendly through booking process and stay. Highly recommend this lovely campsite.
