A great site in a beautiful location
We stayed here as part of a Dales tour for walking.
Finding the site easy easy and it's well signposted. Looking at the details beforehand you don't quite get the fact it's next door to a large leisure site with a lot of static holiday homes but you don't hear of feel them plus you get to walk up to the pub on that site and enjoy the good food (Gamekeeper's Inn).
The welcome was great - straight out to see us, a quick book in and then off the find a pitch. Once parked up its back up to the office to pay and get the local information. The site is well laid-out, plenty of space with the services roughly in the middle. A handy footpath entrance at the bottom of the site takes you quickly onto a lane and then into Threshfield - only 10 minutes walk from the site for a good local shop and a pub (Old Hall Inn). Continuing from there it's only a 20 minute walk down into the Wharfe dale and then up into Grassington - such a beautiful little town.
We left the van parked up and spent most of our time walking out across several days, following the Wharf down to Hebden Bridge and up onto Thorpe Fell and Grassington Moor. We did have a main meal out a few times at the some great places in Grassington - The Devonshire for a cracking Sunday lunch and the Black Horse in the hotel bar. Sitting at the van in the late afternoons with a cup of tea and a spot of wine was super as the site was so quiet but full of wildlife, especially the rabbits that come our each evening to nibble on the grass verges. While the site full and very busy it did not feel crowded at all. The usual good welcome and chat with member's was a treat too.
There is so much to see and do on the doorstep of the site. We'll be back.
