Excellent

We have just returned from the Bolton Abbey club site and fully intend to return. It is a beautiful, peaceful site with a spectacular dawn chorus. The two wardens are excellent, very friendly and efficient and the whole site is a credit to them.

Recommend the walk along the river to Bolton Abbey and Priory ruins, so beautiful and an abundance of wildlife. Toilet and shower facilities excellent and nice and quiet site.

Lovely peaceful site

Stayed here with our dog for 2 nights in June. Walked to Barden Bridge first afternoon and then to Cavendish Pavilion next day, both nice walks and areas for our dog to be off lead. There are some steep and deep bits, so do take care, but paths are very good and easy to follow. Map on entrance to site, next to Cafe. Site had lots of Rabbits and Ducks roaming around, all staff and facilities great.If you enjoy walking and relaxing in beautiful surroundings, a site for you! 😊😊🐕‍🦺

First class site and wardens

The site is in a superb location and there are walks from the doorstep into the Bolton Abbey estate - it is also excellent value as you now pay £15 just to park your car in one of the estate car parks as a day visitor. The facilities and site are immaculate. What really sets this site apart are the friendly and helpful wardens - enroute to the site we received a phone call on our mobile from the warden to let us know that one of the roads into the area was blocked by an accident, and another call when the obstruction had been cleared. That is going the extra mile for members! On arrival the warden advised us on the pitch that would best suit our needs. Thank you and ***** stars!

Just wow.

Visited May 2021 and again 2022. On both occasions the Wardens were Laurence and Yvonne, two incredibly hard working, helpful, knowledgeable and committed people. The Club in general and this site in particular are lucky to have them. The other reviews already detail what a fabulous site this is and the various reasons why. In summary location is everything. Just wow. Infact don't go, you'll hate it, and I'll have more chance of getting in next year...

Nice small site, very relaxing.

had 2 nights here last weekend, very nice smaller site and very quiet and relaxing, lovely scenery within the woods , plenty of wildlife around the site too. wardens were very friendly and helpful with any queries we had, facilities spotless as per with the sites in the club. only small negative was we arrived slightly before the 1pm check in time so pulled up outside the entrance, there is a small tea room adjacent to the camp site, the woman on their gate came straight across to us and said 'she cant have us blocking her entrance' to which i looked at the rear of our small caravan and pointed out we were clear of her car park entrance, she just repeated we cant block, and suggested we reverse all the way back out or go for a drive on the moors !! with a caravan in tow ! she was a bit abrupt about it, we just said we arent blocking anything at all and even moved a little further away to stop her moaning anymore, was uncalled for on her part and we were actually going to go in her shop to grab a coffee while we were waiting but she put her own block on that. so just be aware if your early watch out for her.

Lovely small site on several levels in light wood

Lovely small site on several levels in light woods, with ducks, pheasants and lots of smaller birds all around. Just next to Strid café and start of walks along the Wharfe. Strid on the Wharfe right next to site, is a beautiful area for walking - to Barden Bridge over and back along to Aqueduct and to site. Amazing amounts of true native wild garlic, Ramsons, bluebells, wood anemones, and oyster catchers, ducklings, other waders, moorhens, and much more. Other way along Wharfe to Bolton Abbey equally lovely, plus great cycling if lumpy to Grassington.

A perfect gem of a site

This perfect gem of a site is one we will be returning to again & again. Showcasing a sparkling spring in Wharfedale, the setting is perfect. Sheltered, immaculate, set amongst bluebell woods. The site is teeming with wildlife and birds that wander the site. Across from the site is access to the Bolton Abbey estate. You can walk the river Wharfe whichever way you turn. A beautiful priory set on the rivers bend. Pretty stone villages, a tearoom selling delicious food opposite the site entrance. The fruit scones are amazing! The warden was very friendly and efficient and had even left us a voicemail re our arrival time. We were due at 1930 & he was asking how we were doing as there is no late arrival place. We arrived at 1930 but it was nice to feel expected! The site is immaculately kept. Showers and toilets usual good CMC site standard. We absolutely loved this site. It has a magical ,peaceful atmosphere. Weve booked already for 2 visits next year. We cant recommend it highly enough. Fabulous for our cocker spaniel. Good dog walk on site too as well as miles of river walks! What's not to enjoy! If you love the yorkshire Dale's this is a perfect site. Thankyou CMC.

Back again

Yes we've been here before, I book this site for when the local company "Fat Lad At The Back" have their cycling sportive. We've been coming here since 2017 for that event as the location is superb, facilities great and wardens top notch.We cycle past the site while on the Sportive and it goes down well with fellow site users. We always walk the Stridd to Bolton Abbey or out to Barden via the Wharfe....it's stunning. Anyway... already booked for us 5 for next May's Sportive

Fantastic Site. Dangerous showers.

This should be an 5*plus review. The site is fantastic. The location is superb, in fact I would probably have to make comment on the dawn chorus being too loud! The welcome was warm and the pitch great. But there is a downside - the showers. Whilst they are warm and powerful, the cubicles are an accident waiting to happen. There is no means to keep everything dry, no means to support yourself and no way to get dry without standing on your clothes (thus getting them wet!). I witnessed people getting dry and dressed outside the cubicles so that they could hold onto something. So in conclusion, go, it is great but be aware there is a cloud in paradise.
