Very nice smaller site
Stayed just one night on our trip north. Everything on the site was neat and tidy, and we were welcomed with a smile.
Facilities were likewise clean, so no complaints there either. The dog walk is actually a bridleway alongside the site, and is probably quite muddy in the winter but was fine on our visit.
This is a nice little site, and we'd certainly visit again.
Rude Warden
How can this Warden get away with being so rude to so many customers who arive early. We came in February and got the same treatment, Its his rude manner that needs addressing. May be he needs to go on a Customer Care Course.
Good site spoiled by welcome
Having booked in advance and received a booking acknowledgement, which gave a checking in time of between 12.00 and 2.00, we did not read further down the page which in smaller print gave a earliest arrival time of 1.00. As a result we arrived at the previously stated time of 12.00 and were told in no uncertain terms we would have to leave and find ways of using up a hour with our van in tow and return at 1.00. It was even suggested that we reversed our outfit to leave rather than circuiting the site to the exit. As we were exiting the site other campers told us they had had the same experience. Not the most welcoming start to our stay. Apart from that the only other thing to mar our stay were two badly cooked fish on our fish and chip supper in the on site restaurant. The restaurant did remove one of the meals from the bill, but we would have preferred a well cooked meal instead. Will we go back again? No, there is more to a good site than excellent pitches and a good toilet block.
Great Site
We stayed a night at this site and it is a very nice site. The site was clean and tidy. It was so nice to see a Caravan Club site with a bar/bistro. Hopefully there will be more to follow.
Nice site
A very nice site. Clean and tidy and friendly staff. Could do with some signage when reception closed as had to rely on fellow camper to direct us to warden as we arrived on a Sunday afternoon. Bistro excellent and well recommended. Dog walking not the best but adequate with dog bins available.

Great site but the dog walk is poor
This is a lovely site with spotless toilet block etc. The warden could not be more helpful. I had a problem with my caravan and he came to help and found the phone number of a local caravan fitter who sorted the problem on the phone. The play area for children is just about the best I have ever seen.
The only thing that lets it down is the dog walk which is a very muddy lane outside the site which is the access point for the farm behind the site. There is an area around the camping field which could be adapted as a dog walk- come on Caravan Club- it is shame that I have to award only 3 stars for facilities. If you do not have a dog then the facilities are brilliant. We chose a pitch which backed onto the farm lane and although there is a warning about farm noise we did not expect it at 5am !

Lovely site on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales
We decided to test out our new caravan on this site and were delighted we did. The site is very secluded and quiet. The wardens were very friendly courteous and helpful. The shop is very basic, we didn't try the bistro but did venture into the village and ate at the Guy Faulks pub which was excellent.
Loved everything about the site and will visit again.
First visit
Our first visit to the Knaresborough site and it will not be the last; we were well impressed with the warm and friendly wardens. The site is clean and well-kept and pitches are of good size. We can highly recommend the Bistro/bar on site which serves up some excellent food with great service plus dog friendly. We were so impressed that on our return home we tried to rebook for May & June, unfortunately all the dates were fully booked so will keep trying.
Peaceful site
Lovely friendly welcome from the warden. Great location very quiet on site but lots of places to drive to. Ideal for dog owners as there is a lane at the side of the site(does get muddy though) and Nidd Gorge a short walk away is lovely. There is a bistro/bar on site and a pub that serves food in the village. Loved it so much we have rebooked for October.
