Last 2 night stop travelling back from NC500

We included this site which was a slight detour home to spend 2 nights with our young Granddaughter. Our visit was 25/26 June. Our newly acquired Garmin Tourer 2 Sat nav had been spot on throughout Scotland..... but DON'T use it to get here :-) I knew where I should've been going as we had been to Bolton Abbey before (not the site) but let it take over..... BIG MISTAKE Still, at least we enjoyed a very scenic route, passing through villages where we had some odd looks..... Lovely site & surrounding area. Good facilities, apart from tv & phone reception which is well documented in the handbook, so no complaints there. Strangely, I did get data on my phone & was able to use Whatsapp. We arrived earlier than my daughter who was included in our booking, explained this to the warden & when she arrived she was given a site map with our pitch circled on it so she could drive straight to us. Nice touch. We had a lovely family next to us with 2 girls who made friends with our Granddaughter, sadly they only had 1 night together :-( Will definitely visit again for longer as there is so much to explore locally.

Lovely site

Stayed on this site for 5 nights last week. It is a lovely site,with walking straight from the site. 5 mins walk you are down to the strid and can walk along the river to Bolton Abbey or alternatively drive. Lots of other walks around the area too. The wardens Lawrence & Yvonne were a credit to the site. They kept it well maintained and were very helpful and friendly.

>Excellent quiet site.

This was our first visit to the site. With an Autotrail highline motorhome we were a little concerned by the Bolton Abbey Arch. Fear not, just line yourself up straight and proceed slowly through the arch. There is only a couple of cm's clearance either side on the wing mirrors, but the height is fine so long as you do not have a satellite dome on top. The site is amazing and both the relief and normal wardens were very friendly and helpful. You can walk for miles through the estate either side of the river, the two tea rooms at Strid and Cavendish pavilion are both good. We will definitely be back

Great staycation

This is only my second stay on a site with my motorhome and what a stay it was from start to finish, i loved every second Laurence and Yvonne who are the wardens come across as very caring and very helpful and they will do anything to make your stay enjoyable.I havnt done much in the way of motorhoming since getting the motorhome on the 22nd of march 2020 then covid hit so couldnt go out in her till just now june 2021 so i didnt know what to expect i did camping as a kid but still not really knowing what to do or where to go but i neednt of worried as Laurence and Yvonne helped me so much and thankyou to them for being there , the site is really clean and well maintained from grass to rubbish removal from the recycling area and site areas are spotless my only downside was wifi was nill and tv signal was nil untill i purchased a tv aerial wire which i plugged into the sites free tv booster ( yes i paid for the wire but thats my fault for not buying one before i left ) then we could watch the tv the wifi is a different story no signal on that or mobile phone even with my own dongle (which also didnt work ) i then resorted into using the sites wifi which wasnt cheap at £3.50 for 24 hours and wasnt fast at all , i can do without many things but wifi isnt one of them , apart from that all was well and enjoyed the quiet and the banter with the other campers they are some lovely people .I am no walker but my wife said to me we are walking to Bolton Abbey and im so glad i remembered how to walk further than to the fridge because is was really nice and out in the sun and fresh air was really rewarding .Enjoyed the whole 4 days i was there and will be back again this year some time once i get the feeling back in my feet after a 6 mile walk ….. Give it a try get rid of the Covid cobwebs and enjoy

Great stopover

We stopped for 2 nights after travelling Scotland and was greeted by very helpful wardens, unfortunately no access to 4g and u will need to purchase the clubs WiFi which was a bit hit and miss and u need to have a long aerial or can purchase from site to beable to watch TV. Lovely clean wash rooms and toilets etc, this campsite is on a huge estate with lots of walks, tea rooms and ice cream hut, ideal for families and couple. Unfortunately unable to use a bike on the estate grounds but take your walking shoes and can walk all directions for hours. Absolutely loved it here and would recommend and return.

Lovely setting

Spent 3 nights here recently. The site is perfect if all you want to do is walk. Footpaths galore, direct from the site! Good clean facilities and friendly wardens. The site is surrounded by trees and has quite a number within the site boundary. As on many sites the trees could do with some cutting back. We will return.

My favourite site.

The Bolton Abbey Estate Site is in a spectacular location and, because of this, it’s always going to be regarded as a good site to visit for most people. Woodland walks by the river to cafes, pubs and restaurants is as good a way as any to while away the day for lovers of the great outdoors. The wardens (Laurence and Yvonne) are absolutely superb and they will always go out of their way to provide help and advice when requested which is what helps make the site particularly special for me.

A lovely part of the UK

A lovely well managed site hidden away. Very peaceful and ideally located for some beautiful walks and cycle rides. I can’t really say anymore except it’s definitely a place to go.

Beautiful site set amongst mature trees with abundant bird life.

Fantastic two night stay - only stay I’ve been able to book with the Caravan and Motorhome Club so far for 2021 and only site I managed to book last year. Yvonne couldn’t have been more helpful in terms of fitting me in for two nights instead of the original one night booking is managed to secure by chance. So very grateful to her for managing to do so - not easy, I know. Both Yvonne and Laurence are friendly, welcoming and helpful - and work their socks off to make this site such a wonderful one where we can have a break in relative “normality” in these ongoing crazy times. Thank you so much. Excellent, peaceful walks straight from the site along the river towards Bolton Abbey or in the opposite direction to Appletreewick. And wonderful showers where you adjust the heat yourself! Fab!
