Very pleasant CL & good welcome

This is a quiet and pleasant site. We stayed two nights whilst visiting Ripon Cathedral and Fountains Abbey & Studley Water Gardens both of which are well worth visiting. Mrs Stockil was very welcoming and even called to say goodbye and wish us a safe journey on the morning we were leaving. Has all necessary facilities. The owners home and garden were immaculate. Easy to find but do follow the directions given by the owner. Next to a fairly quiet B road.

A Beautiful C.L. in a Lovely Location.

We stayed here for just 2 nights on our return home from Scotland and received a warm and friendly welcome from Mr and Mrs Stockil. The location and surrounding views are beautiful and the site itself immaculate. With good walks on well marked footpaths nearby it suited us and our Border Collie 'Rosie' particularly well. Our thanks to the owners again for their hospitality. Pamela and John Fletcher.

A Little Gem!

We have used many CL’s over the years and don’t normally bother to leave reviews. This site, however, is one of the best we have used. It is easy to find, with good access. The owners are very welcoming and friendly, the site is well maintained and obviously cared for and it is set in a beautiful area with magnificent views. We stayed for seven nights and there was loads to do in the area. We wish we could have stayed longer! This site is definitely on our ‘we must come back here’ list and we look forward to returning. It is everything we look for in a CL.

What a fantastic CL!

What a fantastic CL! It has easy access and the owners are welcoming and friendly. The pitches are sheltered from behind by hedges and have an outstanding view to the front over the vale to the Hambleton hills. The site is a finely mown lawn surrounded on three sides by flowers. A real bonus is the spotlessly clean toilet. It is ideally situated for Brimham Rocks and the World Heritage Site of Fountains Abbey/Studley Royal Water Garden. Nearby is the ancient city of Ripon, with historic cathedral, riverside and canalside walks, racecourse and traditional weekly market. The city is one of the smallest in England, with ample low-cost parking near the cathedral for cars and campervans. We have been using CL's for over 20 years and this has to be one of the best we have stayed on.

Well located between Ripon and Pateley Bridge, friendly welcome

We received a friendly welcome and learnt that the owners had the site for over 40 years, yet still appeared very well cared for. The views from the site were great, and being located between Ripon and Pateley Bridge, it is convenient for both Studley Royal/ Fountains Abbey and Brimham Rocks. We appreciated the provision of a well maintained toilet. The site is on the B road, so a little traffic sound, but this made it very easy to travel.

Lovely Hosts

Our first visit but it won't be our last. We received a wonderful welcome from Keith who showed us round the sight and put us straight when we had a hick up with our electrics. Wendy was out but made sure she met with us the next day.It is obvious that the site is well cared for with beautiful borders of flowers and well mowed grass pitches. Pitch sizes more then adequate with all amenities easily accessible. The views of the surrounding areas well made up for a busy road at times, but to be honest we where out enjoying the beautiful countryside to care. Plenty of walks near by and local pubs with Ripon and Pateley Bridge on the door step. Not impressed with the chippy at Pateley Bridge though. Hope to be back before the end of our season.

Wonderful week a this CL

We had never stayed at this CL before. The owners Keith and Wendy made us feel very welcome and we quickly settled into its beautiful surroundings. We were surprised that during our week here there was no-one else on this site ass it is one of the best CL's we have stayed on. Each site has electrical hookup (16 amps) and the water point and chemical closet emptying point is easily accessible. The added bonus was having a toilet for exclusive site use which was clean, having a huge map on the wall of the local area and a rack with information of places to visit. This is a great site to explore North Yorkshire situated almost eqidistant from Ripon and Pateley Bridge and located near to fountains abbey and the fabulous Brimstone rocks. This is a great CL that we would highly recommend. Do give it a visit if coming to this area.

Lovely CL with amazing views

This was our very first stay with our new motorhome so we have nothing to compare it against, but that said, our host and family were warm and welcoming. The views are far reaching and stunning. As others have mentioned, the site is close to Ripon, Fountains Abbey and Pateley Bridge, and there is a pub serving meals less than a mile away. Across the road from the site there are footpaths which lead to a lovely lake (Eavestone Lake). The site has waste bins, drinking water, a toilet, chemical toilet waste facility and electric hook-up. Unfortunately the weather was not kind to us on this occasion so we will return so we can see the views at their very best.

Beautiful Stay

Amazing stay Stayed here for 2 nights whilst visiting Grantley Hall. Owners Wendy and Keith are amazing hosts and their daughter Amanda, couldnt do enough for us. Lovely location, pub about a mile walk, Studley Hall National Trust site about 2.5 miles away, worth a visit. Eggs available to buy from their flock of chickens. Sheep grazing in the next field. Peaceful nights sleep. We feel like weve made friends and will definitely be back, these hosts have been welcoming guests for 46 years which is quite incredible. Toilet, bins, electric and water available A must stay if in the area. The best club site we’ve stayed at and so welcoming they made our anniversary weekend extra special.
