Beautiful, quiet site with excellent facilities - but no Wifi. :(
This is a fantastic site, absolutely beautiful with really nice pitches (gravel pads on most of them). There is a plethora of lovely ducks, rabbits, and a resident peacock that make the site even more interesting. Its excellent location makes day trips to the rest of Yorkshire (and north, to Durham) easy - while there we visited Bolton Abbey, Haworth, Hawes, Darlington, and a few other places in between. The toilets and showers were kept spotless, the dishwashing facility was fine, and the managers were responsive, nice, and seem to run the place well. It's quiet, there weren't any loud children running about, we took our cats and they really enjoyed watching the other little animals around the site. The ONLY thing that lets the site down is the complete absence of wifi, which meant I had to use the three bars of intermittent cellular service I was able to get, which cost me a few Gb over the four days we stayed. If it just had Wifi it would be the PERFECT place! Even without it, though, it is the most beautiful site we've ever stayed at, and we will absolutely be back. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Outdated site
Whilst this site is located in lovely Leyburn it is very tired, and the staff just don't care. They keep it clean but not tidy, and the description in the CC book is not perfectly true. People had difficulty finding any TV channels at all and the site does not have the TV booster facility. Not much grass to be found either, just dirt and gravel. However, if some money was spent on this site it would be a great place to stay.
Good location for a quiet weekend away
