Warm Yorkshire Welcome, Perfect for Harrogate Trade Fairs

We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay on this CL in July this year, part work and part holiday.  We were attending a trade fair in Harrogate and it was a perfect base for us to get to the show, so we shall be back next year. Georgina managed the balancing act between being accessible yet unobtrusive, was there to welcome us but then left us to our own devices.  It is a well run family farm and we were never disturbed by any noise, possibly because we come from a rural area so it was just everyday noise to us.  We were impressed to see beautiful tubs of flowers in the farmyard and the area for vans is very spacious allowing a great deal of privacy.  The WC is splendidly appointed and immaculately clean - really useful for that last stop before you set off home.  The views are excellent and the ponies who often grazed alongside our field were delightful to look at. We enjoyed meals at the Nelson Inn and the Boars Head Hotel, both of which are very close to the CL.   All in all, we highly recommend it and shall definitely return ourselves.

Booked at the last minute. Very glad we did!!!

We booked the site with Georgina, the site owner on the mobile while we were 10 minutes down the road with nowhere else to stay.  We are both very glad we did!  The site is behind a working farm, very accessible, yet very quiet.    There are the usual noises from a farm – tractors and the like, but they certainly did not encroach on our stay to any great extent.  We had a warm and friendly welcome the following morning and were made to feel at home.  The views are very pleasant across the valley and it was an ideal spot to stop, relax eat and drink.      The site has several “regulars” who come every year, and have done so for many years – so that tells you it is worth considering for a break. There are pubs nearby, but we were not at the site long enough to try any. The site is clean and well-kept with nothing spoiling the CL that we could see.  No great slope either, so setting up a caravan was not much bother. Harrogate and Knaresborough are both within easy reach, as is the A1. We would certainly stop there again.

Second time!!

  But it won't be the last. Lovely tranquil site, early morning farm noises no big problem, wonderful scenery.      Short walk down to the pub/shop. Hourly bus to Knaresborough or Pately Bridge from the end of the drive, virtually.    Very friendly owners and dogs. Fresh eggs this time too, from an enterprising son.  Virtually level field fenced around so you can watch horses and cattle roaming.    All in all, a pretty well perfect CL

Friendly

The only drawback of the site is the farmyard noise, it is very busy from as early at 6 am and there was construction work going on during our visit. More than offset by a pleasant view, decent walks from the site and hourly buses outside to Harrogate and Pately Bridge. Oh, and Georgina is one of the friendliest CL owners we have come across in our travels!

Nice site

Really nice site, The two dogs plus friend are extremely friendly, as are the whole family who run the farm. Very pleasant walk through the fields to the local village (Hampsthwait), where an equally friendly welcome will be found in the local Pub and shop. Please be aware this is a real working dairy farm with very long working days. Not a problem for us, but maybe to some.

We shall return !

This was a perfect CL for visiting the Harrogate Flower Show and Harlow Carr. I'd endorse all the positive things others have said - the toilet is modern and spotless

Lovely site...August 2013

A lovely friendly welcome. A paddock situated behind house and milking barns. The grass was cut short, and the site was full the three days we were there. The toilet is kept clean. Three friendly dogs roam the site looking for company and a pat. Good views on site. Harrogate, Knaresborough and Ripon are easy for visiting.

Quiet with views of the countryside

Lovely site, set at the rear or a working dairy farm. Site secluded with good views across country. Quiet clean site well situated for exploring this area.
