Great location
We stayed over Christmas, very friendly staff and a well run site. Short walking distance into Hawes, pubs and cafes, shops. Beautiful scenery, stayed many times, never disappoints.

Excellent site, everything we could wish for
From the moment we were welcomed by friendly and informative staff our stay was superb. The facilities were spotless. The large dog exercise field was the best we have ever come across, the chance to let the dogs off lead was wonderful and the view whilst throwing balls to energetic dogs was amazing! The drying room was a very welcome facility, as was the shop selling milk and bread which we needed, and other essentials.
As we have come to expect from CAMC sites the facilities were more than adequate to meet my requirements as someone with limited mobility. We had a wonderful stay and went to May of the locations recommended in the leaflet.
Only none disappointment, and not the fault of CAMC, the walk to Hardraw falls was not wheelchair or mobility scooter friendly despite being told by the owners that it was. The thick gravel caused the wheels to stick and the motor to stop working. Fortunately lovely walkers helped us back to our vehicle safely!
Great site
Good well kept site,good for walking local or further afield.
Plenty of pubs and a brilliant fish shop.
Unfortunately we pitched near the farm end and had to endure the farmyard dog barking for about 4 hrs every night starting at 2am and nothings to do with campsite.will book fully service pitch next time away from farm.
Since I last came here they have changed the exit way out and some people find it hard to follow the one way system .That saiid the wardens do a good job keeping the site in good order
One of the best, but...
This site is excellent, certainly for location and facilities. The drive in is one of the best, certainly from the south.
All went well as usual except that during our stay our dog became very ill and needed veterinary care. We found there was a vets in the village - Wensleydale Vets. Ok - just a consulting room in a portacabin on the auction mart site, but our dog got the injections and medication needed to effectively turn her round within 24 hours.
I was so pleased to have found these vets that I thought others might want to know, as on the Useful Information-style handout your receive from the wardens on arrival, I think they only mention the vets in Bainbridge. I went up to the office to offer the information to come up against an amazing attitude from the warden who had a very strong opinion against these vets. Apparently they had visited the consulting room in the past but couldn't get the treatment they needed there, and were referred to Leyburn. I understand their frustration, but the vet's website clearly states that the Hawes office is just consulting and more serious cases requiring hospitalisation will be referred on. The warden wasn't interested in including the Wensleydale Vets listing in their handout which I think is wrong - these vets are walking distance and H24 callout once registered.
The handout should be just useful local information based on proximity, not individual opinion. I was pretty staggered by the attitude I got. Disappointing blip in an otherwise excellent stay and weekend.
Our favourite club site
Just back from an amazing 11 night stay over Easter at Hawes. Love Hawes site, a great location in the heart of Wensleydale with amazing walking straight from site.
Wardens friendly and helpful, site immaculately kept with modern facilities and the benefits of a drying room for wet coats and walking boots.
A lovely babes rooms with pool tables and table tennis for family fun.
Already booked for next year. Can’t wait to return

Peaceful Break
Just had a very peaceful week at this site. Have been many times before.
Very quiet and restful. Lovely facilities and friendly wardens.
Hawes is great - walk to The Green Dragon and see Hardraw Force. Wensleydale Creamery worth a visit and you can sample and buy cheeses - worth eating there too. Also recommend the White Hart for food. Short drive to Muker and Reeth - both worth a visit.
Great site next to a great town
Frequent visitor to this site as it ticks all the boxed for us. Hawes is a lovely market town and has decent pubs and plenty of shops to browse. The site itself is clean and well looked after, if you have dogs the dog walk is a large field with some woodland and plenty of rabbits holes to keep your dog occupied. The bottom end of the site is ajoining a working farm, so depending on what livestock is in the sheds, it can be a bit noisy at times. Go visit and take the short walk to Hardraw Force, and have a pint in the green dragon.
Fab stay
We were at Hawes over the Easter weekend and had a great time. Wardens were fabulous, really friendly and helpful. We had a pitch down by the farm where we did get the farmyard smell but soon got used to it. Lots of cattle a lowing but I liked that. Dog field is superb, great to run off lead. Bottom end a bit muddy after loads of rain. Great, clean facilities block with no push button showers. Hawes was very busy as you would expect. I had booked for a meal at the White Hart where the food was superb, on the pricey side but we felt it was worth it. Very dog friendly too. Also had to try the chippy, which was great too. We walked from the site to Hardraw and Aysgill force waterfalls and my husband did a fabulous (he says!) ten mile run around the dales. Couldn’t have been better for our first trip of the year.
Loved our stay at Hawes
What a great site, so good I’m going back for a week….
Fab location with great views. Short walk into the town where there are great shops and pubs. There are lots of walks and plenty of villages to visit.
The site was full but all very quiet, facilities are clean and well kept and the wardens were great. Ariel booster was a real bonus for each site, I was expecting poor tv reception but with the use of an aerial cable we had perfect reception. Can’t wait to go back.
It’s a little gem of a place
Great location and well laid out
Great location, large facilities, own stretch of the riverside and easy walk into the village. Wonderful stay!
