Beautiful Yorkshire Farm Site

Hurries Farm
We have just arrived home from spending 5 days in the Yorkshire Dales and having Hurries Farm as our base. It is a beautiful location on a traditional working farm with a pedigree herd of cows and a Reir in the fields. David and Wendy gave us a very warm welcome and lots of advice on where to visit. We visited Malham Show, Kettlewell, Grassington, Settle, and Hawes. I was so pleased to see a sturdy hose pipe on the water taps so you did not get wet from the spray. It is a beautiful place, with beautiful people. What more could we say? We hope to visit again.

Just what a CL should be

Hurries Farm
This remote CL is nestled deep in the Malhamdale farming countryside. David and Wendy are kind hosts, and being included in some of the farm activities including viewing his sheepdogs at work, and his pedigree Aberdeen Angus cattle was a privilege. The site is not trim and perfect, but isn’t that a pleasure after some of the overly fussy regulations on some sites? Waste disposal is basic, but who cares when there’s a barn owl watching you. Eggs are available. It is a ‘dark’ site so watching the night sky is a joy. You need to take care on the narrow approach roads - they are all nearly single track with passing places in the Dales area, but it is doable with care. Possibly be wary of the road from Airton to Settle because of gradients. Also stone pillars on entrance to CL field - wing mirrors in, although a Carthago with higher mirrors visited and was fine. A lovely site.

peaceful site

Hurries Farm
A lovely peaceful site, on arriving our sat nav wanted to take us further to helifield, but we followed the farmers instructions and turned off at Gargrave, where we met all the day visitors from Malham Cove, it is a narrow road and a looked at us thinking why are you hear with a caravan, some of them sat & looked at us expecting us to reverse with a caravan, when we come home we went to Helifield it was shorter and easier. As for the rest it was a lovely site, lovely places to visit, nearby you can watch the boats open the lick gates, David the owner was friendly, so reviews say no water near the C.D.P. but David told us their was a tap in the barn opposite it don't feed tina one of his Dogs, my Wife gave her a bit of fish the day we arrived, so she kept sitting outside our caravan door

Peaceful stay at Hurries Farm

Hurries Farm
Just returned from a peaceful 3 night stay, where we were the only guests so had our pick of pitches. Pitches slightly slopping so would need levelling blocks or ramps. Views around the pitch really nice and for a working farm very quiet minimal noise. No road noise whatsoever. The area is definitely worth a visit. Our overall rating was 4 stars only because of the following, the electricity is 10 amps and as it was cold our heating needed to be on most of the time, therefore we had to manage the use of other electrical appliances due to it tripping out on several occasions, this might not be a problem in warmer weather when heating not essential. Also the toilet waste disposal is just a metal grid over a drain, there was no water nearby to clean the drain and flush the cassette.

Lovely place to stay

Hurries Farm
We booked to stay for a long weekend towards the end of September. Our car ‘died’ whilst towing, about 25 miles short of the site. It looked like we were in for a very long wait for repair or recovery, bless the owners, he offered to come and collect our ‘van and bring it to the site. Once we had arrived, and overcame our car problems, we had a lovely stay. The site is beautifully quiet and peaceful, the surrounding area is lovely, yet not too far away from places of interest. David took us on a tour of some of the working farm, demonstrating the working sheep dogs as we went round. It was all very interesting. He keeps some very good looking pedigree Aberdeen Angus cattle too. Our stay seemed altogether too brief, we would have been happy to stay for longer. Thank you David and Wendy for your hospitality, and for the offers of help because of our ignominious arrival on site!
