Date of Visit: August 2013 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Twolees 12 reviews from this member

 Just returned from this lovely site having stayed for a week with our friends from hull. The site was easy to find not far from the A1. We were met on arrival by the owner and shown to our pitch. There are 7 pitches for touring caravans, the rest are seasonal, these are in separate fields, the touring pitches are facing the play area but this didn't bother us even though we had no children. The fishing pond was small but ok my husband and his friend enjoyed it, they caught a few carp and roach. The toilet and showers were cleaned spotless every morning by the owners husband, we never had to queue for the toilets or showers saying that the site was full. You have got to try there home made cakes, they are scrummy. Tesco supermarket a short drive away near catterick garrison. A small pub in the village just over a mile away. Some lovely places to visit near by. Will definitely go back.

 When we visited, the site was very quiet this I think was more due to luck than anything else, however I would not want to be on the site at weekends or during school holidays.

We arrived on a Sunday, and was shown to a pitch that resembled a car park, opposite the play area, this is where the seven touring pitches are placed, hence my earlier comment.

Having said all of the above, we did enjoy our 3 night stay.

The fishing is described as a pond and that is what it is albeit a nice one, at a guess you could get about 8/9 people fishing at any one time.

The facilities block was basic and dated but very clean.

The local pub is a Samuel smith pub about 3/4 of a mile away called the bay horse, it was a country style pub and had just started to serve food, with a pint costing £1. 80, part of the walk to the pub is very steep and on a main road, as we both use walking sticks and were not aware of this until it was to late we did suffer for the rest of our time at the site.

The site was also being expanded with a large number of pitches being made.

We would not go back to this site.

 The site is nicely kept with very clean facilities and plenty of water points. Most of the pitches are for seasonal use but the small touring area was quiet and sheltered. Fishing lake is well stocked and easy to access.

The site is in a very good location for visiting the Yorkshire Dales, towns of Leyburn and Bedale are within easy reach and it is also possible to visit the North York Moors and Teesdale. There is a large supermarket within 3 miles at Catterick Garrison if you need to shop in earnest.

Reviewer: TheTs 10 reviews from this member

 This is an unusual site, but in a very good way. It is dominated by seasonal pitches, (there are only 7 touring pitches) and that means that the site is full of people who care about the site much more so than on most other campsites.

Perhaps as a result the facilities were totally pristine and they were the most homely of any we have seen on any campsite.

The site itself is near the top of a hill so it has fabulous views but it can be a bit windy. The owners are very friendly and we were very lucky to get in at short notice.

 Went to visit Highfield Farm upon recommendation from a friend who stayed there last year. We have toured for many years and seen many different campsites throughout Britain.

We were impressed with the layout and cleanliness of the site and facilities. The owners were fantastic. I e-mailed them to ask questions about the site and helpful wasn't in it! Fantastic couple who were so helpful. We visited Highfield Farm for viewing. Excellent.

We were so impressed we have got our names down for a seasonal pitch next year and look forward to spending many years there.

 Stayed at this site for a couple of nights, , had two vans as son and family came with us. The owners were spot on, very friendly, shower block was ok very clean and the grounds were very nice, , little park for granddaughter to play in, what more can you want?? only tricky bit was finding the site, , your sat nav will take you to a farm opening DO NOT go in there like my son did (silly sausage) but carry on up the hill just past TUNSTALL and it is on the left. Overall the site was very good, , very quiet, , nice pub down the road in Tunstall, , easy distance from Catterick and Richmond. Thanks

Reviewer: Warbulator 10 reviews from this member

 Wow, what a site, mainly seasonal but a nice little separate 7 pitch field for tourers, all pitches have levelled out paving stones to put your wheels on and most gravel under an awning if you have one.

Toilets immaculate really really! with real hand towles!.

Showers are free. Washup room 20p for hot water, in there is a free library of lots of book and jigsaws (if it rains!) and a pay tumble dryer but no washer.

Honesty box for free range eggs and homemade jam (nice).

Local pub no grub :( but Richmond and Catterick village only 2-3 miles. Catterick garrison couple miles away has tesco and many many takeaways of every sort to keep the army (and you) happy.

Nice fairly large fishing pond/lake on site but no local tackle/bait shop, nearest I found was Boroughbridge 15 miles away, £3. 00 for a day ticket paid to owners and plenty of roach in and some crafty carp!

Local steam Wensleydale railway a nice day out.

Sooooo. Peaceful and quiet but not a long way to York etc. Really nice site, will return.

Reviewer: Mky100 5 reviews from this member

 Upon arrival we was shown to our pitch and told where all the amenities were by Andy who was very friendly and helpful,

This site is one of the best we have visited very clean and well looked after and the showers and toilets are spotless.

(Andy the owner never stopped cleaning the site)

There are mostly touring static caravans but they have about 7 or 8 well spaced pitches for touring caravans with a little park across a gravelled road.

There is a walk from the site but tried it twice and got lost both times due to lack of arrows, but the owners have told us they are trying to get an ordnance map.

Richmond is about 5 miles and Leyburn about 7 there is a small pub in Tunstall but if you would like a real ale there are better pubs not too far away

The pond is nice and well set out and you are definite to catch something.

There is no shop on site but never really bothered us too much.

The tv signal is excellent also.

We would definitely return to this site in the future and would recommend to anybody who likes to get away from it all.

 First time visit to this site. It is a lovely site (mainly seasonal pitches) only about 7 touring pitches but plenty of space around each unit, very well kept site & toilets immaculate. Has a fishing lake which is great for novices (us)as the fish seem to bite anything !

The village of Tunstall doesn't have any shop but it does have a pub which has resident chickens in the beer garden called, salt, pepper, custard and mustard.

Nearest shop is back in Catterick Village which is about 3-4 miles away.

Reviewer: Sooozym 2 reviews from this member

 As previously mentioned mostly used by seasonal caravans but that was not a problem.

Lovely owners who were really friendly and helpful.

Toilet and shower facilities were immaculate. I have never been on a site which provides liquid soap and hand towels in the washrooms.

It was close to lots of lovely places, Leyburn, Bedale and Richmond.

Peaceful and tranquil.
