Aerial of the campsite

Howgill Lodge is nestled in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, located ten minutes from Bolton Abbey in Wharfedale. The site offers hardstanding pitches for caravans and motorhomes and grass pitches for tents. The site is terraced to give spacious, level pitches with lovely views across the valley. Enjoy breakfast at the cafe with fresh pastries and coffee, or help feed the onsite alpacas, Audrey, Dorothy and Ethel! Just 20 minutes from Skipton.

Medium Tent - Large Non Electric Grass PitchesApr 2023

Howgill Lodge is a 'quiet' site with a mixture of tent pitches and caravan/camper hook-ups. There are a number of very clean and well resourced toilet/shower blocks, and laundry facilities too. The staff are very friendly and helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. I would recommend Howgill to people who are looking for a pleasant base from which explore the Yorkshire Dales.

Superb- neat, tidy and friendly staff.

Medium Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (3m x 5m)Apr 2023

My partner and I stayed here for 3 nights. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Amenities were cleaned regularly and done to a high spec. The campsite is ideally located for hikes and local sightseeing opportunities. Will 100% be visiting again. *Definitely do the firepit one of the nights.

Lovely location

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Hardstanding PitchesOct 2022

Rural location approached via a long gravel track. A little noisy on the first night due to someone's outdoor entertainment but very peaceful on the following nights. Good facilities but the shower block wasn't very warm (mid-October). Everything else was well organised. Handy for Skipton, Grassington & Pateley Bridge.

My new favourite site

Motorhome - Hardstanding PitchesAug 2022

The only downside to this site was the difficulty we had navigating the lanes to get there in a motorhome, if it was smaller it would not have been a problem. Friendly staff, nice and clean place, with everything within walking distance.

Lovely stay, thank you!

Single Axle Caravan - Hardstanding PitchesAug 2022

This is a lovely site with a great atmosphere. As a single caravan camper I try to avoid sites that have large groups and many pitches, so it feels friendly and relaxed. I wasn't disappointed here- the staff were very helpful and accommodating, and all campers seem happy and enjoying themselves. I would definitely come back.

Beautiful and hidden

Medium Tent - Premium Large Electric Grass PitchesAug 2022

Views are lovely across the valley, plenty of wildlife and lovely walks in the area. Second visit to the site and it has improved with a new shower block on the terracing. Note for the owners - Pitch 17 is not great at all so I would recommend you not putting anyone on it and remove it from a potential camping pitch. There are no views, it felt quite claustrophobic with the large trees and bushes surrounding it and has the toilet block the other side. Not a pitch I was happy to have originally assigned to me, or other fellow campers who also asked to move pitch from it. Other than that initial setback, we had a great 4 night stay with you and would recommend the site to plenty of others wanting a quiet, relaxing camping trip. Thank you.

Stunning, quiet and friendly site

Large Tent - Premium Large Electric Grass PitchesAug 2022

We had the most wonderful view, in daytime the lovely hills and by night we were lucky to watch a meteor shower. But the most wonderful thing was that the site was very quiet after 10.30, everyone there respecting their surroundings and this was very refreshing. The staff was very helpful and we really enjoyed having a camp fire. We will definitely be returning.
