May Road Trip

Directions easy to follow and access to farm very good. Option of 2-3 hard standing as well as the grass pitches. Hardstandings were welcome because of previous days' very heavy rain and the ground was very boggy in places. The owner was very welcoming and advised where and where not to pitch The views were absolutely beautiful and service points clean and tidy. Ideal for visiting Harrogate, Knaresborough and across the Dales to Skipton. Quite limited dog walking but would be happy to come again if we were in the area.

A warm welcome despite the wet.

We have just spent a very enjoyable 5 nights at this CL. Georgina Beecroft welcomed us on arrival and went out of her way to help us pitch on grass which was very soft in places due to the exceptionally wet weather over the preceding weeks. We arrived late in the day and the 3 hardstandings were already occupied but with Georgina’s help we were soon in position. There are extensive views of the surrounding countryside from all pitches and the provision of a WC in adjacent buildings is an added bonus to the usual electric and water facilities. This a working dairy farm and a certain amount of early morning noise is to be expected but we did not find it to be intrusive. Further rain during our stay made the grass paddock softer and so Georgina and husband Richard offered to move us with their Land Rover when a hard standing became available to avoid any further damage to the grass. This was a perfect solution and they went out of their way to be helpful. Approximately 3 miles from the centre of Harrogate the CL is in an ideal location for visits to the town, the show ground for events throughout the year and RHS Harlow Carr Gardens in addition to the beauty of the Nidd Valley. We will be happy to return, hopefully in dryer conditions.

Fantastic setting

This CL ticked all the boxes. Although slightly sloping the all grass field was well maintained and we had the freedom to choose our position. Not the best site for large twin axle units. It was easy to find and access with the bus stop just outside the long drive. As an early riser farmyard noises were not an issue and I enjoy being in the midst of a working farm. Harrogate lovely and from there a pleasant walk to RHS Harlow Carr.

Great site

Loved this site. Made to feel very welcome. Views down the valley were beautiful. A walk down to the next village revealed a great tea room and a corner shop opened until 8pm every evening. The shop was well stocked. Very peaceful will definitely go back

Not for light sleepers

The site is easy to get to and welcome pleasant. Field is on a slight slope, but not a problem if you have blocks. The views are lovely and there are some nice walks from the site. Toilet very clean. The only thing that spoiled it for us was being woken up every morning at 6am by loud banging and clattering from the farm. If you are a light sleeper take ear plugs, which we will next time.

Very welcoming CL

As mentioned in other reviews, the CL is easy to find and access is excellent. The welcome and facilities are as expected. We stayed during a very wet period. The normal pitches were too wet to use. We sited our motorhome along with the other 4 guests on the edge of the site on some hardstanding. I am sure that the intended area would be great during the summer but we did not really see the CL at its best. The working farm is not an issue, it adds to the ambience! We used the hourly bus service into Harrogate but were not prepared for the £11 fare for two return tickets! However the city is well worth a visit as is Fountains Abbey about 8 miles from the CL.

One to return to

We do not usually stay on CLs - preferring the extra security of Club sites - but this site offers peace, tranquility and great views along with good level pitches and easy access to Harrogate and the local area. Great to see all the family involved with the farm, the hens and the horses not to mention the friendly welcome from Amber and the other two dogs. Hourly bus service from just outside the site to Harrogate or Pately Bridge in the other direction. A site that we will certainly be returning to in the future.
