Beautiful, tranquil site.

I stayed here for 8 nights this June. What a beautiful spot, fantastic views and lots of fabulous walks from site. Although I use my own facilities the shower and loo looked great, the information room/washing up area, could, I'm sure be very useful for some people. Very neat and tidy site, lovely seating area with chiminea. Even though the village filled up at the weekend with people doing the Yorkshire Three Peaks, it was still peaceful. Fantastic base for exploring a truly beautiful part of Yorkshire. The Ribblehead viaduct is just up the road and well worth a visit, especially when a steam train is due. Robert met me on arrival and watched my caravans rear end around the bend at the entrance but it was no problem. Overall a lovely site, thoroughly recommended and I hope to return.

Fab-u-lous!!

This CL is simply stunning and everything you want for your holiday stay. Robert and Jane are great hosts and gave us a warm welcome. We were very happy to have pitch no. 1 which probably has the best views and the sun all day. The facilities ( shower and toilet, washing up and washing machine and tumble drier)are excellent and spotlessly clean. Jane provided freshly picked salad leaves from their garden for all the campers. There is a chiminea that you can use in the middle of the site with plenty of wood. The village is spread out with a train station with trains to Settle or Carlisle. There are two pubs that serve basic pub food. The walks are many in all directions and we walked up Ingleborough from the site. The roads are great for cycling with lots of National cycle routes. Quite hilly in places but easier with electric bikes! All in all a fab site with fab views.

Simply the best

We spent a lovely quiet week at this perfect CL. Great facilities and a stunning view. So easy to access the train station for the best train journey in England on the Settle to Carlisle line. We had intended to have a walking holiday but due to health issues we just enjoyed being there, sketching and chilling out, and getting the train. Robert and Jane are super CL owners, so helpful and friendly. We will definitely return to tackle those walks !

Lovely location and outstanding facility

Booked a long weekend at the site to enjoy some hill walking. Received a warm welcome and shown where all the facilities were. Facilities were of a very high standard including a washing up area. Dogs were all on a lead which suits us. Pitches are fairly level and grass was firm. Exceptional views The pubs in the village are nothing special but you don’t need them with such a wonderful site to enjoy your own meal. Village is a great starting point for many walks including Pen y Ghent & Ingleborough. The area gets very busy during the summer with people coming to do the three peaks challenge but even when the village is bustling, the site is tranquil.

Lovely quiet CL

First time here and we loved it. Have been to this area a lot, and this is ideally placed just enough out of the village away from the 3 peaks crowds. Friendly owners and great facilities. Nice shower room and washing up room. Lovely views. Slightly sloped so will need ramps. Walked up Ingleborough straight from the van and had a nice (undulating!) cycle to Ingleton and Settle so plenty to do.

A Quiet Site on The Three Peaks Way

The site is located and in view of Pen-y-gent which whilst we attempted were unable to complete !! Nether the less there are a number of less strenuous circular walks from the site which are well worth trying all in the region of 5 to 6 miles. A drive to Malham Cove should not be missed but do the walk in a clockwise direction finishing with Goredale Scar and Janets Foss since the ***** steps up to the top of the cove are a devil on the knees if going down. The little van at the bridge by Goredale Scar does reasonably priced bacon or sausage rolls as well as hot drinks. We noticed that the approach to the site via the Stainforth to Horton road took you over a couple of small bridges set a right angles to each other and whilst we were OK we did encounter some large lorries coming in the opposite direction over these bridges whilst we weren't towing and had to take avoiding action by driving into the pub car park. Had the caravan been connected it would have been a differnet story since the road is very narrow. We left the site in the direction of Ribblehead then back via Ingleton. If you are towing it may be worth having a look at the two bridges at Horton Village on Google Maps Street view and make your own mind up. This was a very restful break we were made to feel very welcome and the facilities were first rate. Can recommend this site it is brilliant.

Simply lovely

This is a lovely little CL site with a stunning view of Pen-y-Ghent. We were slightly worried about our arrival as we knew it was a tight turn into the drive-way and then on to the CL site. Robert had checked our arrival and was there to help if we needed it..luckily we were OK. The facilities are great and include shower & toilet as well as a utility room for washing up and a washing machine and dryer. Very peaceful with the odd train heading through the village. A very small issue is lack of any shops in the village and we had to head to Settle when we needed anything (which is no big deal and nice to visit anyway). Ideally placed for the 3 Yorkshire peaks (we did them on separate days not all in one!), Ingleton Falls, Skipton and more.... and also only about an hour from Windemere as well. Loved it!

Could not fault this site.

This is a beautiful and well maintained site. Amazing views, friendly welcome, great facilities. (Maybe I should play it down a bit, to make sure there is a pitch available next time we visit!!)

A special place

This relatively newly opened CL (not yet in the CAMC directory) is a fantastic addition to the CL network, particularly in such a stunningly beautiful area of the Yorkshire Dales, which has previously been lacking in CL provision. This is truly a special site, the views of Pen-y-ghent are amazing & the facilities provided are first class. (A pristine unisex toilet/shower room, laundry (small charge for the washer & dryer) with useful local information & recommendations). Recycling is available & an environmentally friendly approach has been taken in the CL design. A wide variety of walking routes from "easy" to "challenging", are available direct from the site. The access from the road is probably "tighter" than most but certainly not daunting when taken with care. The road noise can be noticeable at times, during working hours, due in part to Dales quarry traffic. The Settle/Carlisle railway runs through Horton & trains have to sound when approaching the station (great for train enthusiasts who have warning of approaching steam engines, visible from the CL!!). Although the CL surface is grass with no hardstanding available, the ground is very firm & drains well (useful for Pennine weather!!). We had no problems at all getting off with our motorhome (a motorhome at the top end of the dimensions allowed on this CL) despite having significant rainfall during part of our stay. A warm welcome from Jane & Robert awaited our arrival & the pre-arrival booking/administration was very well organised & efficient. Real care & thought have been applied to this CL "project". I envisage that early booking will be needed, particularly for weekends, in the future, as it comes to more people's attention but I believe that, at present, midweek stays can be booked at short notice.
