 Very friendly! A small campsite but perfect as very quiet and very clean.

In a perfect location to visit lots of places and walking distance from plenty of pubs.

Would 100% recommend and we will be going back :)

 A small well maintained site, good facilities and very pleasant views.

A 20 minute walk into Leyburn over a footpath - but remember to take a torch for the way back!

Would stay again.

 The facilities were clean and modern the owners were very friendly,

There were pitches on the field and two separate, one was in a shaded area under some trees which kept the van cool in the very hot weather.

It was close to Leyburn which took 20 to 25 minutes to walk. There was a bus stop on the way for buses to Richmond. There was a bus stop in town where a mini bus (can use bus pass) to Hawes ( market day on Tuesday) it also goes to Bolton castle but you have to notify the bus company.

 Very well maintained site in a lovely location, surrounded by farmland.

Quiet even though it was quite busy when we were there - but we could hear guns/artillery from the nearby military ranges in the morning so perhaps not the place if you want a very peaceful getaway!

Due to Covid restrictions, they've made the toilets unisex and limited to one household per space - which means there are, in practicality, just two toilets for the whole site, or one toilet if someone is having a shower. This isn't really enough - we often had to queue. The facilities were spotless and modern - just not enough at the moment.

Good potwash facilities.

Good location for pottering in that corner of the Dales.

 Have been waiting to stay at Cow Close for ages and it was worth the wait. Fab site. Clean toilets and showers.

Great location, short walk into Leyburn and base for lovely walks.

Dog friendly. Amazing meal at the Black Swan.

There was no play area for children but it was a good size field and the ones that were there seemed very happy playing outside their caravan.

It was quiet on a night so no disturbed sleep. The local Chinese and pizza shop delivered to the site.

Owners were very helpful and nothing was a problem. Well done Suzanne, Amanda and Mark.

Can’t wait to stay again.

 Great location and Amanda made us feel welcome and she was really helpful in talking through local walks and lending us a Landranger map for our stay.

We had a good pitch overlooking some lovely countryside and Leyburn was just a short or a slightly longer walk to shops and good pubs and cafes. There are one or two interesting walks from the site and its not far in a car to places like Hardraw Force and Askrigg waterfalls.

The site was pretty full during our three night stay and although the toilet blocks are good they are a little on the small side for the size of site. There are no child facilities that on this occasion was fine as for us as we had escaped the kids for this short break.

On balance a good site, helpful and lovely owners ( Amanda ) and well placed for walkers and country lovers.

Oh and the meal in the Black Swan exceeded expectations.

 Can't fault this site, brilliant location, perfect hosts,

Facilities when open are spotlessly clean,

Would recommend to anyone,

If you can keep your children entertained yourselves then it's good for families although there isn't a playground
