lovely site but!

Hi got a warm welcome to a lovey autumnal site got a nice pitch . Some of the pitches are a bit close to each other we had our awning up and the next pitch was a non awning pitch the caravan next to us by no fault of their own seemed a bit too close . Our only real complaint is one that seems to becoming prevalent on a lot of sites is the excessive speed fellow members drive around the sites .

Superb location

Spent 5 nights here this month. Great site in a lovely setting. Ideal for those who love to walk. Riverside path to The Abbey takes you through some amazing scenery. The site itself is very tranquil, facilities excellent as is the standard of cleanliness. Lots of nice coffee shops in the area that sell home made food, ingredients sourced locally. The site is close to many picturesque villages that are worth a visit. The arch leading to the site is not a problem just approach it slowly and use your mirrors. We will be back.

Great location, super site

Having just returned to caravanning after a break of 29 years we used this site for a shakedown trip prior to taking our grandchildren on a trip over half term. And how things have moved on during our absence! A great site, with all the facilities and in such a beautiful setting very close to the abbey and Wharfedale. Long, safe and wheelchair-friendly paths. Who needs to go to New England in the Fall?

Peace and Quiet

A great location for visiting the local area. Miles of local walks in a variety of terain from woods to fell. A compact and quiet site with the usual high standards of cleanliness. The school next door adds to the experience, it was nice to hear youngsters playing together. A special addition - when emptying the cassette I always fear dropping the cap down the drain but at this site a special holder has been made to remove my fears, thank you and well done. Beware, if you have an ultra modern tv that only has a digital tuner you will not get reception.

Great Site

Stayed at the site in October 2015. Lovely and peaceful with great walks direct from the site. That arch you have to drive through on the approach to the site is not for the faint hearted, so be aware if you have a wide outfit or are a bit nervous, check it out on line before you book. Otherwise can thoroughly recommend the site as a great base to explore this area.

Peacefull, quiet, clean, friendly

easy to find location, well signed, the bridge at Bolton Priory concentrates the mind - know your caravan width, and how to position it. very friendly helpful wardens, tranquil, quiet, woods for the grandchildren to explore. nearby tearoom and lots of walks through the woods, down to the river.

Excellent site for walkers

Have just read the latest review and can't believe we were on the same site. Spent 8 nights towards the end of September and thoroughly enjoyed the site. The walks through the estate and to Bolton Abbey are totally stunning and the bonus was I was able to use my walker so disabled friendly. As for the site, apart from no DTV or Mobile Signal (not down to the club) we can't fault the site nor the wardens. Yes there is heavy tree cover but the wardens were only too happy to let us move onto a sunnier pitch when we found our original one too cold. The ablutions are clean, warm and perfectly adequate for the size of the site. Had no problems with children and dogs on the loose. The site shop sells duck food and it's wonderful to be surrounded by the ducks every morning and evening, I felt like the Duck Whisperer!! :-) The site has a public telephone which we used and the lack of tv meant we spent more time chatting and out and about, bonus. The laundry prices are a little expensive now but that's the same across the network (cclub maybe you could revise these charges??) The free drying room is fab for those wet shoes and raincoats when you get caught out in the forest in a rainstorm. The wardens were friendly and helpful. They were very understanding when my sister had to leave early due to my father not being well (my parents were staying in her van). We will definitely stay here again especially as Skipton is minutes down the road where the best Fish & Chips can be found oh and lets not forget the best Pork Pies too. There is a narrow arch to negotiate but if you take it slow, no problem to get through. Lets face it that's not down to the Club either. Bolton Abbey is a must see and the best place to stay is the Club site.

Most of the site is under deep shade all day from mature trees. The bottom end of the site was like a sink housing estate with children and dogs running wild. Caravans on the upper site were surrounded by detritus and would be at home on a traveller's site. The toilet block is dated and wholly inadequate with just 4 small shower cubicles in the men's facility but rows of cubicles with wash basins. It dates back to when British men bathed once a week! The warden is the most dour I have encountered which probably explains the state of the site.

great site

Just come back from our second visit to this site, the weather was glorious, the site is second to none and the location is wonderful. Great walks, although dogs do have to be on a lead, which I have no problem with, but not many other dog walkers take any notice! But hey ho another fabulous break in Yorkshire.

First Time Visit

This was our first visit to the site but it will not be our last........ what a wonderful site which is well maintained and clean a great credit to the wardens. The site is ideal for walking with a variety of levels from easy to more difficult. A nice gently walk to Bolton Abbey that if you take make sure you visit the "Tea on the Green" tea room great food with a courtyard area which allows dogs. I am sure that we will be returning again many times.
