Outdated site

Whilst this site is located in lovely Leyburn it is very tired, and the staff just don't care. They keep it clean but not tidy, and the description in the CC book is not perfectly true. People had difficulty finding any TV channels at all and the site does not have the TV booster facility.  Not much grass to be found either, just dirt and gravel. However, if some money was spent on this site it would be a great place to stay.

Good location for a quiet weekend away

Situated in a lovely location and providing good access to a large swathe of North Yorkshire. The local steam railway runs along the site, which can be seen as either an attraction or a bit of a nuisance, although only five of six trains pass through each day.  Our pitch was next to the line, but we didn't find it a problem.  Toilet facilities slightly below usual CC standards, but quite acceptable.  Some pitches can get a little soggy during heavy rain as the water pools, but this is just a question of watching where you step.  We would happily return.

Camp site nestled in Watership Down

I have visited this campsite on numerous occasions and have always found the staff very friendly and helpful - the facilities always clean and the rabbits and ducks (nor forgetting the peacock) adorable! The location is ideal for Leyburn and surrounding countryside. It is a veritable suntrap. I would recommend this site, but not to too many people, as I would like to be able to return again soon.

Lovely site

We visited this site mid July for the 194os weekend, it was a lovely weekend. We have stayed on this site quite a few times, the site is very clean, the wardens are very friendly and helpful, it is within walking distance of Leyburn around 30 minutes where there are plenty of places to eat. The nearest pub is at the end of the lane. There are lots of ducks, rabbits and other wildlife to keep you entertained the ducks make regular visits to your caravan throughout the day.

Good site

Lovely site set in part of an old quarry, teeming with wildlife. Facilities a little dated but more than adequate Will certainly use it again.

Excellent site, perfect location, fantastic wardens and ducks!

We absolutely loved this site!!! Our first one on joining the caravan club on our tour of Britain and WOW, don't think it will ever be beaten! We arrived very late on our first night, in the rain and the wardens were so helpful and so friendly. They had us sorted on a lovely pitch next to them and there we stayed for the few days we were there. Main toilet/facilities block was superb. Site was beautiful and the wildlife was such a lovely bonus - we got very attached to the ducklings. We could've stayed there for our whole holiday, but had more of Britain to explore! They even booked ahead for us for the next site in the Lake District. Loving the Caravan Club! We would thoroughly recommend this wonderful site and we will be back! Superb location for exploring Wensleydale and Swaledale and great local town of Leyburn. All you could need. Thank you.

the ideal site

Had a weekend break here1/8/16 the site was spotless, neil+jenny are very helpful and hard working to keep the site to this standard. (neil is always up for a good chat) The walks were good and of course the local pub(5mins away). I will certainly revist this fantastic site.
