I have mixed opinions about this site. The views and drive up to it are outstanding and well worth the visit but I wasn't overly impressed with the site. It has statics, seasonal pitches, touring pitches and a camping field. We were pitched in the middle of an oval with seasonals all around the outside with about 5 tourers in the middle. Tents on a separate field. Out EHU didn't work at first so we had to 'borrow' one of the vacant seasonals. It was sorted quickly but was told it happens often. There were 2 showers (20p) 5 toilets, 2 washbasins. Using the toilets early found many without paper and all were very dirty. Didn't use showers because I didn't like the look of them. However the site owners are very friendly and helpful.
The pitches are very close together even the seasonals and on a slope. We had no chocks but thankfully other campers helped us to level up.
Had evening meal in pub next door and the food is lovely.
Glad we hadn't brought our dog as there was nowhere on site to walk. You are next to a road which can get noisy especially with motorcycles.
Not sure I would chose this site again but the surrounding area and views are stunning.
Arrived at Street Head Caravan Park 6th April 2012. We booked to stay for the Season. The owner had previously shown us the facilities and the area where we would be putting our caravan. On arrival for the season we were greeted by the owner's wife and shown to our pitch. Neighbouring pitches were very friendly and helpful.
Facilities on site are very good, with heaters in each shower cubicle, plenty of sinks in each toilet block and plugs for hairdryers. The toilet block is always kept very clean. There is a laundry room and washing up facilities.
The views from all around the site are outstanding. There is a beautiful view from every window in our caravan. Being here for the spring and summer, we have been privileged to see the change in the seasons every weekend and to see the local lambs growing.
Next door to the site is a pub which serves good homemade food.
It is in an ideal place for visiting Wharfdale. If you love walking there are excellent walks from Buckden, Starbotton and Kettlewell with plenty of tearooms and pubs along the way. Leyburn is 9 miles aways with plenty of shops for stocking up on food. Campbells is a very good local supermarket. Just up the road from the site as you head out to West Witton there is a Farm Shop which makes there own burgers and sausages for the BBQ.
We love this site and will be returning for another season next year.
One night, a few days, longer, you will be greeted and looked after by friendly, helpful family owners of this site.
Just spent 4 nights over the bank holiday weekend. Site is shared between statics, seasonal and touring pitches. Beautiful area with stunning views.
Pulled in early afternoon, site office is only open morning and tea time but sign tells you to chose a pitch. As it was a Bank Holiday and many had pre-booked the pitches were labelled with your name.
Field was quite muddy as it had rained heavily the night before, and 2 of the seasonal campers came to help me set up as I got the car bogged down first and then the trailer. Kindly helped me level up and provided extra blocks as there was a fair amount of slope. I was between two others so set myself bang in the middle.
Problems set in as the site filled up for the weekend. In my opinion units were far too close together; when my 2 neighbours vacated, their replacements were pegged up right next to my tent with less than a yard between their guy ropes and my walls. May have not pitched so close if supervised by the owners. Caravans on hard standings weren't much better with just enough space for car between your awning and neighbours unit.
Facilities were basic but clean, 2 showers in ladies, very small and temperamental due to drops in water pressure. 2 hooks for towels etc. Although you do get a good run for your 20p. 3 washbasins and good number of toilets. Hot water varied from tepid to scalding hot at the wash basins.
Laundry contains heavy duty washer and tumbler £1-50 for a wash cycle and 20p per 5 mins tumble dry.
Dish wash area with 2 sinks, hot water varied as above. Drain for chemical waste. Rubbish bins, although no recycling (surprising in these times). All these facilities are located at the top of the site so there is quite an uphill trek if you are in the camping field.
Two water points and a bin are halfway down the touring field.
Site is alongside fast and occasionally busy road. No play area or dog walk area on the site.
Heavy rain caused a few problems, particularly for those in the camping field. With a slope and a narrow entrance between trees it soon became a quagmire and many had to be towed out by the owner with his tractor.
Problems with the electricity which went off every night for varying periods, not sure if that was a regular occurrence or due to numbers on site or even the weather.
As I fell in love with the area I would probably use again though not in high season as it was too packed for my liking.
Would also like to recommend following the B6160 from the site towards Grassington. Stunning drive with the most fantastic views.
We arrived at Street Head Campsite for a 2 night stay. We received a very warm welcome from Mark!
The weather wasn't the best with a lot of rain already fallen and more forecast. The tourer field is on a hill which wasn't ideal the more rain there was. We left our car in the pub car park and walked down which wasn't a problem for us.
The toilets are clean and there is a mop there for you to mop the showers out after use.
The pub next door 'Street Head Inn' was fantastic food, again a lovely warm welcome and excellent hospitality.
On Sunday when we came to leave the touring field being pretty steep was very slippy and impossible to get cars out. A quick call to Mark and he was on hand with his 4x4 and tractor to tow the vehicles out.
Excellent views from the campsite and some really nice walks. We will definitely be staying here again. I hope a soggy weekend that couldn't be helped does to lead people to leave bad reviews of the site!
We are a family of four with two young girls (5 yrs old).
We stayed at the Street Head Caravan Park for a single night during a recent visit to the Leyburn area to visit the Forbidden Corner.
We are very new to camping as a family.
We thought the site was lovely. As other reviewers have said the bottom field (where we pitched) does slope considerably but the effect can be negated by careful placement of you tent!
The area around the site is truly beautiful and it was lovely to go to sleep hearing the sheep in the nearby field and the occasion owl.
The facilities on site are basic but perfectly functional. During our short stay the toilet/shower facilities were spotless and the floor always clean and dry despite the weather being wet.
Although there are no children's play facilities our girls loved the open spaces and exploring the area around the site.
I can sincerely recommend a stay at the Street Head Caravan Park to anyone.
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. Find out more here
We have just spent two nights at this site. We thought it was a great site. We arrived Friday and the site office was closed with just a sign telling you to go and pitch.
As we don't have ECU we were in the bottom field that does slope, however it wasn't a problem. We pitched near the top of the field, the further down you went the more it seemed to slope. You don't have to book for this field and there was plenty of room. If we had wanted electric we would have been in the field above which appeared to me to be very cramped.
The toilets were spotlessly clean although a little basic. Not much room for your stuff if you only wanted to have a wash.
My husband liked this site for the lovely walks he was able to go on with our dog.
Unfortunately on Saturday it rained, and rained! We drove into Leyburn which looks a nice place, but to be honest we only went to the co op because it was pouring down!
We did go to to the pub on Saturday night, which was really nice, we didn't eat but the food smelt and looked nice. It was a bonus for us that dogs were allowed in the top end of the pub away from where people were eating.
The only down thing I could find about this site was the midgys on a night, I would take something for this another time as they were really annoying. But that isn't the campsites fault!
We will return to the site again, but would just hope for better weather
Units were placed too close together, (August Bank Holiday weekend), we came back on Friday PM to find a caravan sited 3 feet from our awning. We felt we had no privacy.
The site owners were very helpful with towing cars off the sloping site, which was very muddy due to excessive rain. Several inconsiderate campers did not clear up after their dogs.
Toilet & shower facilities, though clean to start with were soon messed up, and not enough loos or showers for the number of people using the site. Friday PM no hot water available, and one shower out of two not working in Gents. By Monday morning there was no toilet paper in gents, and no sign of owners to report this to.
Electricity kept going off, this could have been due to weather or some campers tripping switches. Very annoying, especially when off for some 4 hours or more on Sunday night, considering the cost.
If you do go, take some chocks etc. To level your 'van.
There is no obvious facilities for children, toilets & showers are a long uphill walk from camping field.
The area itself is magnificent, with splendid views and scenery, cute villages and some challenging roads. I will visit Wensleydale many more times, but I cannot recommend this site.
Just spent the weekend on this site, the weather was fantastic, we had a great time. There were some down points though I'd like to make people aware of.
We have 2 small dogs, and the pitches with electric are right by the gate onto the road, so dogs have to be tethered at all times.
There is a lovely pub at the entrance to the site, which allows dogs, but we couldn't believe it when we went for an afternoon drink to get out of the sun, to find it closed 2-6. 30.
Also the showers had no 'dry' area to get dressed in, you were standing in a puddle. Apart from that, it's a lovely site with great views.
Aysgarth falls are lovely, and Hawes is a beautiful town well worth a visit.
The campsite was great, owners very welcoming and helpful. The site was on a slope and it was pouring down when we arrived, so not such a good start, but after a very nice meal in the in the pub adjoining the campsite we had dried out.
The campsite was lovely and quiet at night so we could all get a decent sleep, and on our last day we weren't rushed off or told we had to be out by a certain time which was a welcome change.
The showers and toilets could probably do with a bit of sprucing up but they were clean and tidy and there was plenty of hot water.
We would definitely return to this campsite, there's loads to do in the area and it's one of the best we've stayed at.
If I could make a recommendation it would be that the site could be enhanced by the addition of a children's play area.
Lovely little site with very friendly, helpful owners.
Yes the site does slope but most people will overcome this.
The showers have plenty of hot water although could do with more hooks I guess, a mop is provided to clean up any water and people did use it, so they were never dirty whilst we stayed there.
Don't let your grey water get too full though as it's all up hill to empty it out! (Had to get the other half to sort it).
The fantastic views and excellent walks make this site perfect for those who like to get out and about.
The pub close by is an added bonus.
Kids of 10 and 9 yrs both loved it.
Will definitely be returning here.
