Gateway to the Dales

Stayed 5 nights over the Easter holidays. Great welcome by friendly owner into a nice tidy site. Nice views over the farm and beyond. Ideal for touring Wensleydale and Swaledale with lots of interesting things to do. Found it very peaceful. It's a short distance to the local Lidl, Tesco and Aldi together with a cinema and a swimming pool. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Just right

We recently used this CL for a mid-week stay. The access is no problem even for our long unit, although in very wet weather the gateway may become slippy. The CL is well maintained and the land owner is friendly and helpful. Access to local amenities is first class with two caravan dealerships only 20 minute drive away. This is a working farm and there is quite a bit of traffic plus some road noise but nothing we found intrusive. There is a toilet and a shower available but we did not use either. Overall, one we would consider retuning to and would recommend it to others who want to visit this area.

Enjoyable stay

Just had a mid-week break here & thoroughly enjoyed it. It is very easy to find and central for visiting the surrounding villages. Another review mentioned the noise from the main road which is close, but to us it wasn't intrusive. The facilities include a toilet, which is clean & serves the purpose & a power shower in a separate heated building. The owner is very friendly & helpful. This is a CL we will return to & can recommend it.

Pleasant site

Although this site is a small paddock it easily accommodated the 5 caravans.  Fors:  Friendly owner, very helpful and generally around the farm if needed.  The loo and shower are in sepearate building.  Easy access to and from the site.  Free apples.  Not far to walk for water or to sluice. Against:  The A6136 is a very busy road and the road noise was quite bad until about 8pm when it did ease off a fair amount.  Loo was ok but could do with improvement as could the shower.  The bin in the shower was not emptied during our 6 night stay. The sluice is quite smelly.  There were quite a few occupied caravans sited on various areas throughout the farm and these people used the facilities too.  We did enjoy our stay but the road noise is sufficient to stop us visiting this site again.

Everything you Need !

Stayed 1 night as an overnight stop on route to London. Great welcome by friendly owner into a nice tidy small site. Nice views over the farm and beyond. Found it very peaceful. There is also a Tesco and Aldi a short distance away for messages/petrol etc. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Very good site

Stayed a week on this site while my wife walked the middle section of the Coast to Coast. Very friendly owners, lovely shower (£1 a go) and adequate toilet, peacefull location screened by trees from the nearby road and although a working farm it is not intrusive. One small point and that is the overhanging trees need cutting back, as there is an abundance of pigeons living directly above a couple of pitches and my black car turned spotted overnight, and would certainly stain an awning.

Well worth staying though, and made to feel very welcome with an information sheet provided on arrival.

Lovely CL

Agree with all that has been said by other members. We just used this as a stopover but hope to come again for longer. Such nice owners, a quiet, well-tended paddock with far-reaching views, yet Colburn and Catterick Garrison are nearby for takeaways & groceries. Set back from the road and well screened so road noise not a problem. A little gem of a site and excellent value for money.

Quiet, friendly and sheltered

We booked in at this site as we have our caravan serviced at Catterick Caravans and would rather stay here than trundle over from Cumbria first thing in the morning. Now we are happy to return and stay here whenever we are in the area, not just as a convenient stopover. We find the site clean, tidy and well run by friendly people. Note that it is a working farm.

Worry free stay

  We found the site very easily, 10 minutes from the A1. On arrival the owner was very friendly and informative. the site is flat, quiet and near to all local shops. the weather was very damp (november)so we parked our car on the farm car park,in summer there would be no problems.   Mr wood the owner asked if we needed a tow when leaving but we managed with motor mover, but it was nice to know we had the facility without worrying how we would get out. this knowledge helped us enjoy our stay at the site. hopefully if we are visiting this area again we would stay at this site again

Lovely site

Visited this site again in July and if anything it was better than ever. The owners are friendly and helpful as was everyone on the site. Handy for Richmond and the dales. Lost count of the number of times we have visited and look forward to our next visit.
