Ease of arrival/welcome

Convenient for the Dales and Richmond

A most welcoming site close to the A1M Motorway and easy to find. We arrived after some heavy unseasonable rain which was a pity as the grass area for the pitches was pristine and maneuvering spoiled the surface somewhat. The site is conveniently situated for a large Tesco and many various fast food outlets, chemists etc. I marked less than 5 for peace and tranquility but only because it is a WORKING farm. The proprietor is most accommodating and approachable. Full of local knowledge (eg. - where to get the best local Pork Pies! :) ). He pulled all the stops out to make it possible for us to extend our stay by a couple of days. We were most grateful. On site, one will find all the "comforts of Camping" like easy access to drinking water, grey disposal and chemical toilet disposal. That said, the toilet facility next to the farm house is perfectly adequate and the wonderfully heated shower room next door is a great find, with plentiful hot water to boot. I have been to bigger sites which lacked the basic comfort of adequate heating in a shower block during unseasonable weather patterns. We will remember our stay at Colburn Grange Farm for many years to come and have no reservations in recommending it. If you can get a space! It appears we are not the only ones who have found this gem on the edge of the Dales. Many of the other campers are returnee's. Book early not to miss out.
