Obviously members that complain about poor or narrow access to club sites have never been to Low Wensleydale site or the Kendal site ,I have not seen any complaints about these site ,perhaps is that us northerners are better drivers and can  managed them !!

Who's complaining?

I’ve not been to Lwr Wensleydale but don’t recall any issues at Kendal the couple of times we visited. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿป‍โ™‚๏ธ

We've been to both sites mentioned by the OP, the only issue with these sites are the approach road isn't maintained to a good standard (pot holes) the Wensleydale site I remember has a traffic light system which I thought was a good idea.

We've certainly been to sites with more challenging approaches.

How about >this one< then? I will tackle most narrow roads as long as I am not towing a car. It becomes tricky if I have to reverse with it.

Melrose also has a traffic light entry system.

The link doesn’t work for me, PD, and I think you mean Merrose Farm in Cornwall rather than Gibson Park, Melrose in the Scottish Borders.๐Ÿ™‚

I can’t get either link to work PD.


Unless they have been installed in the last year, Lower Wensleydale does not have traffic lights. However the very narrow section with no passing places is very short and you can see if anything is coming before you start along it. I thought Fairlight Wood more challenging. I don’t recall the Kendal site being an issue, although it’s a long time since we visited.
