 This was the first time my wife & daughter and boyfriend had ever been camping. We got there on the friday evning and just went to where I had been told to set up our tent by the owners and with using my TomTom we found the campsite right away. As you come into the camp site there is a field for them who want eletric for £12 a night and a field at £10 a night for them who do not want to use eletric. As this was the fist time my family has gone camping we went without eletric. The next morning the owners came and welcomed us to the campsite.

The toilets are clean and tidy but only one shower but it was realy good for the size of the camp site.

There is a small playground for the little one's with some swings and slides and as I saw the kids that was playing on it were happy with it but there are fields for the kids to play football in or even just to hang around and have a laugh.

The campsite is has some lovely hills all around and there is a river that goes into Skipton that you can walk to by the river.

The village looks ok and there was a pub as you come in to the village but we never got to go to because as we finished eating tea and had some drinks, we just sat there enjoying the sunset.

We are going again in about five to six weeks time as my family want to go again, even though the weather could have been better my family still liked it.

If I was going to give this stars out of 10 then I would give it a good 7 out of 10 *******.

This campsite is greae for those that have never been camping before and those that have and just need a quick break from it all.

 We have just returned from a long Bank Holiday weekend at this site, and must confess that we were very disappointed.

The site has loads of potential as it is in a lovely village close to Skipton, it has a decent kids play area and it has wonderful views all round.

The things that really let the site down are the facilities and the general site management.

The facilities are very basic consisting of 2 toilet cubicles (unisex), 2 hand wash basins, one shower cubicle and one washing up area which has luke warm water only.

Considering it was a Bank Holiday weekend the site was not particularly busy but the facilities really could not cope. The shower seemed to flood into the toilets which were never particularly clean and always lacking in toilet paper! Drinking water is provided via a bowser which the owner brought on the first day. I would expect that if the site were busy this would need to be refilled on a regular basis, and I would imagine that there will be delays in this service.

The site management is very poor as the owners do not live on site and as the pitch markers are non-existent, arriving campers are left to pitch where they want to. The owners only seem to appear to collect money.

The site is very cheap but I would certainly be happy to pay more if the facilities were improved.

In summary, this could be a great site so if the owners read this can I suggest that you take a good long look at the site and decide if you are happy to keep running it the way you currently are or if you want to have first class site.

If it is the former, good luck to you. If it is the latter we will be delighted to return.

 This is one of the nicest campsites my family and I have ever stayed at. We found it very easily and were greeted warmly by the owners who seemed very laid-back. Being May Bank holiday weekend we expected the site to be quite busy but it was simply steady rather than crowded which was ideal.

The site was very open, far enough away from the main road and pleasantly situated in a semi-walled enclosure. The toilet block was clean although there were too few showers and the water butt was amply filled and easy to access. One minor disappointment was the 'children's play area' which was in fact a patch of bare gravel with a few childrens' ride-on cars; this was one of the reasons we chose the site as we have two young children.

The site is about ten minutes drive from Skipton which is ideal as it is a lovely market town with an excellent hot pie shop! We passed several decent pubs and there was a cluster of small shops just outside the campsite.

Overall I would gladly stay there again - although I would imagine that in August it may get pretty rammed and be a little less enjoyable.
