Lovely little CL

Ridgefield Cottage Nursery
We just spent a lovely 4 nights here when visiting the local area for various other reasons, including visiting the Yorkshire Showground, Harrogate, Knaresborough and Fountains Abbey. All within easy travelling distance. It is beautifully kept/maintained and the exclusive shower and toilets are spotless. Jo, the owner is super-friendly and helpful and I couldn't resist buying a couple of plants from the nursery!

First not last

Ridgefield Cottage Nursery
Finally, we managed to get booked on here after three failed attempts due to popularity. We arrived just after one and met by the cheerful owner who explained and showed us everything on site then told us where to pitch south facing. Ideal for Knaresborough and surrounding areas with or without a car due to local transport links. On site facilities are clean and a really useful addition. Plenty of eateries and pubs near by and lovely walks. Have already booked for 2023 before leaving to ensure a spot, if you wish to visit this peaceful beautiful site then book early. Thanks for a lovely autumnal stay.

Brilliant site. We will be back!

Ridgefield Cottage Nursery
We booked here as had to attend a conference at Leeds but also wanted to explore the surrounding areas and stay in the countryside. The site is very well looked after with love and care from the hosts. We had a great view from our pitch of fields and trees and the facilities are so clean and nice. As it’s small it was really peaceful. We walked each day into Knaresborough and hopped on the train to Leeds and Harrogate. It was so accessible on foot for us as as enjoy walking. There are some lovely footpaths in the surrounding countryside and Knaresborough is such a pretty place with plenty to see and do. I went to the nursery one day and bought some lovely plants. Mrs P who runs it is just lovely and. I thing was too much trouble. Thanks for a lovely stay

A cracker!

Ridgefield Cottage Nursery
We have been caravaners for 50 years now and few sites we know of can beat this one. On a main road but far enough back and masked by trees you wouldn't know it was there. I thoroughly agree with all the previous reviews. We were met by Jo, the lady owner who you could not fail to like, and she showed us the amenities which are pristine. She was on hand to give advice but she keeps well out of the way otherwise. Why have we not found this site before one asks? We are not going to give it a good review because we don't want it to be full the next time we want to go there !!! Oh go on then - its great, but save us a pitch.
