Reviewer: Cortez The Camper 6 reviews from this member

 We liked the warm, friendly reception. The site is well laid out, very clean and generally quiet.

The new toilet/shower block is one of, if not THE best we've experienced across Europe.

There's a restaurant maybe 1 mile walk away, The Game Cock Inn, that serves the most delicious food, served up by the French chef owner.

There are wonderful views from the campsite & a variety of walks. You can catch a bus from the Game Cock, to Settle, Lancaster, etc. The famous, stunning Ribblehead Viaduct is an easy drive away

Reviewer: Sessa 1 review from this member

 This caravan site is absolutely fabulous.

Lots of space between the caravans. Very peaceful and great views.

The staff are very helpful, Gary the site manager was very on hand when we had some very noisy neighbours, rang him and he sorted the issue out for us.

Gary comes round between 5-7pm to offer fire pits and wood fir £6. 00.

Our stay here has been a pleasure and would definitely one back again.

Well done to everyone for making this a wonderful site to visit.

 Our last day here and found the site very impressive and best toilet/shower facilities we've ever stayed at.

Staff very pleasant and supply the right equipment to have your own fire.

Only thing if we come back is to be located down the other far end wall if possible but no negative feedback on this trip.

Reviewer: Thornwell9 4 reviews from this member

 We only stopped here for one night as was doing a touring UK holiday and there was a few tourist spots we wanted to visit in this location. Which meant this campsite was just in the right location for our visits to Malham Cove, Ingleton Falls, White Scar Caves & Hawes.

Its a very open campsite with flat pitches. Use of picnic tables and firepits which was great even in the rain we had.

The shower block looks brand new which were lovely & clean and at 50p for 10 minutes I couldn't complain. Also there was a use of a hairdryer plus plug sockets to bring your own.

Washing up area was clean and plenty of hot water. Large freezer for freezer blocks.

Would visit again if in the area and apparently was a laundry area coming soon which would be helpful.

Owners very helpful & friendly first class service.

Reviewer: Kerrya 2 reviews from this member

 This site is bigger than we normally book but reviews were good so decided to give it a go. So pleased we did.

Our pitch was in the adults only field, lovely big pitches close to facilities which were brilliant.

Immaculate and spacious. 50p for 10 mins in shower. Able to alter heat, no constantly pressing a button.

Yes it's a busy site but it's run very well and it does go quiet at 11pm till roughly 8am.

Very friendly, would highly recommend.

Philpin Farm Campsite - Yorkshire Dales

Beautiful tent only site set on a family run hill farm in the Yorkshire Dales, nestled between Ingleborough and Whernside. The Three Peaks footpath runs right through the farm adjacent to the campsite with lots of walks direct from the site from easy strolls to climbing the Three Peaks, and five minutes to the pub!

Tent pitches only, no electric hookups. Toilet and shower block and washing up facilities. Sit, eat and socialise in the old barn, with free wifi, charging lockers, freezer. At weekends the Philpin Snack bar is open for cooked breakfasts, hot and cold snacks and drinks, ice creams, chocolates etc, on other days there are vending machines in the barn.

Reviewer: Calder 2 reviews from this member

 Excellent site with great facilities. We were on a fully serviced hardstanding pitch which was great.

Excellent toilet and shower facilities(50p per shower) which were modern and clean.

A busy site but it didn't appear to be so as all the units were well spaced out.

Great location for visiting surrounding villages, towns and tourist attractions (Ingleton water fall trail, Ingleborough show cave etc. )

Reviewer: Jewells 1 review from this member

 Excellent site came with our son and 3 of his friends who were stopping in a tent.

It was great that they were allowed to pitch up next to us.

The site was immaculate, the showers, although costing 50p, lasted a long time which was greatly appreciated after doing the 3 peaks challenge.

It was brilliant that they came around offering the use of a fire pit in the evening.

Definitely will be back

 Fabulous campsite, very clean showers, toilets and fish washing facilities. Grounds are well maintained.

Staff are friendly and nothing is too much to ask. And you can light a campfire in the evenings.

Will come again.

 Lovely big, flat field with well spaced out pitches, so you never feel hemmed in.

The toilet block is new and the cleanest I've come across in years of camping.

The firepits were more than adequate and we didn't have to leave till 12! (A definite bonus, as we had a new tent which took longer to collapse than we expected).

No shop yet, but it's on its way.

Had a meal at the Game Cock (recommended by Orcaber) in the near by village of Austwick, which was excellent.

Definitely recommend this site.

Reviewer: MrT73 1 review from this member

 Brilliant site, plenty of space between pitches, toilet & shower blocks are immaculate, despite torrential rain on one night, no idea how they kept them so clean, not one bit of dirt, as one block closes for cleaning the other remains open, with additional toilets allocated, all well ventilated, with free soap & conditioner.

Site was well maintained, absolutely no rubbish or litter anywhere, which is nothing short of remarkable!

Scenery is beautiful & relaxing, no road noise from anywhere.

No noise after 11pm respected by everyone.

Gaynor & Gary were polite, helpful & friendly, everything you want from hosts.

Free fire pits & they come round every evening selling firewood at £6 a bag, which was great given I’d forgotten it yet again.

Always willing to stop for a friendly chat.

Picnic benches for every pitch which can be moved to suit your set up.

Ice cream sold on site at reception, also ice cream van visiting every day.

I will be returning, which is not something I say that often, I’m 47 & have been camping twice a year since I was around 5yrs old.

I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

You will not be disappointed!

Reviewer: Dawny17 1 review from this member

 Spent 2 nights at this ‘gem’

Can’t recommend it enough.

The site is beautifully maintained and the views are stunning.

The toilets/showers were immaculate and always well stocked with toilet roll & hand soap and constantly being cleaned.

The site is very well managed and staff are very helpful. Logs and fire pits are delivered to the tents daily, £12 for pits, logs and kindling which lasted us 2 nights which made the evening’s toasty !

There is ample space for the children to play and football nets are provided.

Fantastic site and very reasonably priced.

We will definitely be back.

Reviewer: Coopertroopers 74 reviews from this member

 We stay on this site fairly regularly and have seen it grow in size over the past couple of years to include so much camping space !

Despite the site now being huge there is still a nice feel about it and Gary and Gaynor work hard to make everyone feel welcome.

The facilities blocks are always immaculate, despite the changeable weather. Nice walks in the area, recommend Elaine's Tearooms in Feizor and the Game Cock Inn in Austwick.

I'm sure we'll be back.

Reviewer: Peter Jeffery 1 review from this member

 Brand new toilet block - always clean. More facilities soon to come including much needed shop (as nothing local within walking distance) and more washing-up sinks.

Could possibly do with another freezer when busy. Main camping field totally flat and well-drained. Countryside views and on-site dog walk to pretty stream with picnic benches (maybe this needs to be publicised more, as would be lovely for young families not just dog walkers!).

Benches also provided around the camping fields for general use! Especially liked the fact that even the non-electric areas had their own carefully laid-out pitches - meaning everyone had their own space and people weren't crammed in on top of each other. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Small town of Settle around 5 miles drive for nearest shops, supermarket, garage, takeaways etc. Ideal location not too far from main road (but far enough away not to be heard) and close to amazing walks, rivers, waterfalls: recommend Ingleton waterfalls trail (well worth the price of £8 adult / £4 child),

The picturesque nearby village of Clapham (nice pub, pleasant walk by lake & gorge) and Stainforth waterfalls. For experienced hikers, the dramatic hills are on the doorstep.

Only negative was that the showers required payment (not sure why needed) but they lasted 10 minutes; and younger children might have preferred even a basic playground - but maybe that might come with their future plans.

Would love to return: well done to the owner, manager and staff!
