Just returned from our first visit to Bolton Abbey Site, for the New Year. Booked at the last minute as pitches had become available. We were delighted with the site, smaller than some but that is our preference. Very friendly and helpful welcome from Janet on arrival and offered a choice of pitches. The site has a lot of tree cover but we think that is part of its charm. We don't have a TV so can't comment on reception. No 'phone signal but WIFI worked well to communicate New Year wishes. Lots of birds on the site which was lovely. It was very peaceful at all times. We didn't use the facilities. Good to see glass recycling. Travelled via A59 from Harrogate which is a perfectly good A class road and negotiated the stone bridge in Bolton Abbey with no difficulties. Despite the wet weather we managed a walk down to The Strid and a ride on the Embsay and Bolton Abbey Railway (free parking here, unlike the estate car parks!) We will be back to explore the footpaths further and to enjoy the wildlife and peace.
