Lovely little site .

Just back from a 6 night stay at this lovely site , great location stunning scenery & with plenty of walking routes through & around the Abbey estate you are spoiled for choice. Easy drive to Harrogate & Harlow Carr & many local villagers to visit with Grassington worthy of a mention , plenty of tea rooms abound the area too , the old school house tea room at Hebden do a fantastic breakfast . One word of caution & the only negative comments I have is the usual short route to the site off the A59 is closed due to sewer work in the village , other longer alternative routes are do able with extreme caution with some of the local drivers seeming totally unable or unwilling to help with their aggressive driving manners . In fact the only alternative routes are deemed unusable to caravans / motorhomes it's in the club hand book . Lastly well kept site with great wardens .

Best Site We've Stayed At!

Bolton Abbey camp site, in our opinion is the best site we've stayed at. Very clean and tidy, peaceful and ideal for walking through the Bolton Abbey estate. Only little niggle was the departure time of 11am.

Yorkshire beauty

Beautiful site with its own wildlife - rabbits and ducks wandering all over. Great wardens and site is so well kept. Lovely walks from the site, but dogs are not allowed on many of the nearby moors and must be kept on leads in most other farmland and associated areas.

Beautiful location in the Dales. A very well managed site run by very friendly and helpful wardens. Facilities always clean. Bolton Abbey gets extremely busy but there are beautiful places along the River Wharfe not to be missed. Two negatives. Some pitches are in constant shade under trees and the wi-fi is poor. Overall though this is a very good site.

Why Oh Why!

I put that heading because when we were first caravaning a fair few years ago we used to have bit of a laugh at some of the comments about sites in what was then the CC magazine! The moany ones always had 'why oh why' within the monologue usually about size of pitch...lack of loo paper...noisy neighbours! We are back to touring now as we want to get around Britain and with 3 dogs it's easier to take the bedroom with you! I'm glad to see some moaners are still around...I'd hate that tradition to die off! Anyway THIS site is perfect...the staff were unobtrusive and hardworking...the place was spotless! We stayed from 29 July to 3 August. This is only our second trip out..the first was to Blackshaw site and I thought that was excellent as well! Don't come here if you don't like leaves,trees, dogs or walking. Thankfully it suited us! I should also mention that the dog walk was clean and I'm so pleased that my fellow dog owners clean up after them! I hope this continues as there are many dog haters out there There was no mess on any other part of the grounds either. My dogs loved it! We'll be back asap! I can't WAIT to go away again beginning of September. The sites just keep getting better! One complaint...I remember when campers would have a conversation with each other...it seems some prefer not to which is fine but if I might propose a reason for this is many don't stay long enough on site! It's a particular issue with motorhomes I think. They come they park they go! Barely even see the driver let alone say hello to anyone! Anyway I had a loveley chat with some of the children on site who came and sat with our dogs! Lovely little people they were and we had a good natter!

lovely peaceful holiday.

Stayed here for four nights in July which we discovered was not nearly long enough as this is a beautiful site. Very friendly couple who are very helpful. Facilities are spotless and have loads of very hot water. The walks along the river are breathtaking and suited to all levels of walkers with colour coded route's. Lots of wildlife around the site and even saw a woodpecker. A bit of a drive to the shops so we took plenty of supplies with us. Would recommend this site for a lovely peaceful holiday. There is no phone signal on the site but a short walk to the river and you get one the campsite sells an ariel wire for the tv reception which gives you 7 channels. Looking forward to going again for longer next time.

Poor accessible facilities

An absolutely great location. Pricier than other sites. Although the toilet facilities were clean, there were no adapted cubicles - toilet or shower - adapted with hand rails for visitors with accessibility issues. The disabled toilet could not be accessed either. A great let down

Comment from the Club:

Thank you for your review. The Site Staff have been in touch as they wanted to clear up any confusion. The site has an assisted shower and sink cubicle in both the gents and ladies toilet/shower areas. The site does have a large fully kitted out disabled room which, as with all Club sites, is opened with the use of a radar key, these are available from the site reception. If you ever need any assistance in the future please speak to the site staff as they will be more than happy to show these facilities and help wherever they can. We hope this clears up any confusion and that you come back and visit again soon.

A lovely peaceful site - great location

A lovely site in a beautiful location on the Bolton Abbey Estate. The Wardens and Relief Wardens were very friendly and worked hard to keep the site well maintained. Lovely pitches, some in full sun and some in the shade of trees. Plenty of walking from the site and an easy walk into Bolton Abbey. We will definitely return when we next visit the Yorkshire Dales.

Lovely first visit

The most peaceful site we have been to! Lots of gorgeous walking to be done. Although our dog was grumpy at having to be on the lead for some of it. The wardens are the friendliest and most accommodating that we have met so far. Pitches to suit everyone. Full sun or shaded and lots of wildlife visiting. We had rabbits, pheasant, squirrels and ducks. Can’t wait to return. A word of advice. Keep bags etc upright or closed. We had our front screen covers laying down for a while when we packed up to leave. The string is broken so bag is always loosely open. A tiny baby rabbit must have crawled in. We discovered it unharmed, luckily, after a 5 hour journey home. Our local vets took it in to build it up before eventually releasing in our local countryside. Happy ending but lesson to learn!
