Hi, can anyone please recommend a campsite in Skipton for May half term? There will be approx 8-10 families going, all with children, so need something child friendly that doesn't mind groups. Children's ages range from 2-12yrs. Thanks in advance guys!! :-)

There is a small campsite in Gargrave on the leeds liverpool canal thats very near Skipton, you can walk for miles on the canal tow path, or cycle. There is a big harvester type pub just up the roade. I think its called Eshton Road cs or something like that, they have a small walled field for tents. J x

Riverside camp site - on here in camp site search - in the village of Cononley might suit you. Lovely scenery and the owner doesn't mind groups - the single parents and solo campers group from here has regular meets there. There's a large childrens play area for under eights with scooters and bikes etc (sand surface) and a brilliant play park for all ages (including skateboard ramps) just five minutes walk away in the village, plus a couple of pubs (one serving food), village shop and a Chinese takeaway. Only three miles south of Skipton just off the A629, or a seven minute train journey if you don't want to drive there. It's a lovely site and has become one of my favourites.

I don't think you'll be disappointed with Riverside - here's a few pics to give you an idea of the site and the village

was also going to suggest Riverside in Cononley. There is also a camping pod if you have any non campers that want to come along.
