For us this was a positive experience from the beginning. We needed a space at short notice and David was my fourth telephone call - the previous three already being fully booked on the Saturday night. We arrived to a hospitable welcome. It's lambing time, and David was around, but I had already asked him if there were any constraints about where to go and knew a couple of the pitches were reserved. The grass was well mowed and everything worked as it should. Some reviewers have commented on the WC disposal - for me it worked fine without any back splashes or overflowing. I've emptied on much 'prettier' ones, which haven't worked nearly so easily. A fellow camper pointed out that, for rinsing the WC, using the tap with the hose in the barn is much easier than using the labelled tap in the same barn, and I was grateful for that advice. We had no trouble with the power. David reminded us it was only 10 amps, so we had to control how we used it - but we managed our 7 days using the kettle, microwave and heater (it was around zero most nights) without tripping the breaker. There were never more than 5 units during our stay.
We are not dog people and the site was full of them, but we had no trouble. And during our time we saw no evidence of poor dog interactions, nor were we bothered by excessive barking.
And we found the location to be excellent for exploring the southern dales. Malham, Settle and Horton are all close. The walking is superb, although there were times when we were glad of tha OS explorer map and the trusty compass - the major paths are well signed, but away from the crowds less so.
Finally, Wendy helped us choose some of their Angus beef for the freezer. We have used our first piece and the taste and tenderness were outstanding.
We have no hesitation in recommending this site to others.
