Breath taking Views

This site was as expected. A working farm with pigs, dogs, sheep , horses and chickens. EHU, toilet waste , water and recycling hut with black bin. Grass field next to a stunning looking village. A public foot path runs alongside the site for easy access walks. Masham is a few miles away with the Theakston Brewery located there. I am not a drinker myself but it seemed popular and once our friends at home heard , ale orders began to be emailed to us. A small market is on on Wednesday and Saturday. Lots of tea shops, butcher and coop. Ripon is an easy drive away, this is the best way to approach the site, from the A1(M). places we visited Brimham Rocks NT Aysgarth falls. £3.50 car park Grassington. All creatures great and small film here. The Grassington road is a really good scenic road to travel . Malham Cove is on this route. Pateley Bridge Skipton Castle £9.50 adults and £4.50 car park Skipton also has a good selection of shops and a canal boat ride attraction. Laura gave very good email instructions to the site and it was an easy journey to follow.

Not for me

We booked for one night as a stopover. Access is tight but manageable. Basic amenities are all ok. However the farm dog uses the field as a toilet. There was dog poo on the field. Owners wife was in residence but claimed not to know what the fees were. I emailed before I got there asking for confirmation of fees but got no response. Owner not available. I paid £20 cash and put it down to experience. I won't return.

A lovely farm experience

After reading the last review of this camp site we arrived with some trepidation but this place turned out to be one of the friendliest and interesting camp sites we had been to. Dog poo was not an issue but you had to aware of chicken poo! Many of the other campers had been there long term and all of them so friendly. We loved the free range chickens wandering about, always up for feeding and delighted by the horses being taken through into the next field. The rescue cob horse called Rosie and her lady owner could not have been nicer. The site itself is reasonably level and surrounded by hedges and a farm building. Obviously we were very lucky with the other campers but they all stay there so long there's a good chance everybody will meet them. We would not hesitate in coming here again.

Disappointing visit

This is the second time we have stayed here but we won't be returning. The owners and other caravanners dogs were running freely and we had dog poo left in front of our caravan and outside the door! Not something you want to wake up to! There was also dog poo near the refuse bins. Alarmingly we also witnessed another caravanner scooping his dog's poo and throwing it up into the area behind a child's swing. We also had vehicles passing in front of our caravan leading into an adjacent field on a couple of occasions including evenings. We know this is a working farm and we do prefer to stay on farms and in fact the free range hens were the highlight. We felt the owners were not particularly welcoming and it is such a shame as the area and the walking is lovely.

Early morning wake up!!

There are poultry on this site and they start crowing at 3 a.m in the summer, not very good when you are trying to relax, that aside there are also long term caravan's with occupants on this site, The owners are friendly enough, but it was not what we expected and we were pleased we only booked 1 night.
