 We visited this lovely pleasant site at the end of last Summer for a week & had a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The staff were very friendly and welcoming on arrival. It is a perfect site for families with pitches that are level and well spaced out with electric hook ups available.
There is a play area for the children which was in good view of our pitch. The toilets and showers were very clean and close to camping and touring areas. Washing up facilities available and a nice small reception shop on site for essentials. The site benefits from a beautiful trail down to some ponds which was ideal for walking the dog. There is also casual day fishing available at a small and reasonable cost which was great for my husband and son.
We had some lovely days out visiting the local towns of Knaresborough, Harrogate and Ripon (a short drive away) and went to Lightwater Valley, Brimham Rocks and Fountains Abbey.
The site was clean and tidy with the grass well cut. The local pub (a 15-20 minute walk away) was being refurbished at the time of our stay however we believe it has now reopened. We will definitely visit again - what a pleasurable stay!

Very basic, but excellent campsite. Large tent field to pitch where you like. Excellent for our large tent. Nice play area for children. Toilet and shower block kept nice and clean and lovely hot water. Lovely pond to walk to. Local pub nice, but very pricey. Local bus service to Knaresborough. Knaresborough is a lovely place and the pitch and put is a must - cheap and good fun. Have visited this site more than once.

I took three friends for Friday and Saturday night, we camp a lot and we really liked the site. We had ample space, and the owners seemed very relaxed and left us to it.
The toilet and shower set up was nice and generally very clean, very powerful hot shower. I would say that they needed cleaning more throughout the day as grass and mud collect so quickly, but it was very satisfactory.
The pub was a 20 minute walk past lovely fields and villages, it wasn't too far for us. It is a beautiful area and we spent our time between Knaresborough (10 min drive) and Harrogate (20 min drive).
The office opening times meant it was tricky to catch anyone sometimes, so we couldn't say goodbye and thank you. We would definitely recommend this site and go there again.

Booked this site as it was close to Ripley Castle where we had concert tickets to see Jools Holland. Met by friendly helpful people.
Site was a mixture of static, touring and tents.
Pitches had plenty of room and cheap compared to other close by sites.
Toilets were clean and shower was excellent but this site really needs more showers and toilets. I noticed near the lake building work to prepare hard standing pitches around the lake.
This has the makings of a 5 star site if more showers, toilets and washing up area were available.

Lovely park, very well kept, large tent field very big and well presented whole site. Although there are a lot of static caravans.
New children's play area just this year in tent field and it has room enough for it so you can send the little ones to play and they are still in the field in sight, great for a little independence.
Toilet/showers are adequate for the price, seen better but definitely seen worse.
Helpful staff, always seem to have a space when we ring yet never seems full. Basic shop on site.
Enough close by for a few nights away but not really enough in area for longer.

We visited this site after reading the reviews to try out our new tent and also to visit nearby fountains abbey. We booked for two nights fri and sat. It was a nice flat site and the toilet block and showers were clean and tidy. However we spent the most horrendous night noise wise we have ever experienced. One group of young adults were singing very loudly till midnight and the other side of us were 4 families camped in a square all chattering and singing till at least one o clock.

We stayed for 2 nights mid week. The site was clean and tidy and owner was friendly. The shower and toilet rooms were clean and showers were free, water was comfortably warm.
The local pub is only a mile away, which is a pleasant walk along a paved pathway. The sink water was not hot enough to wash away the butter off a plate.
We would have had a pleasant time if the nights were not disturbed by the extremely loud noises coming from a neighbouring business. Trucks arriving at 4-5 am and reviving their engines, the general clattering of metal and talking and at one point whistling.

Last minute we decided to go camping and picked this site due to it's proximity to Knaresborough. The site is predominantly statics and tourers and is 2 miles North West of Knaresborough.
Check-in wasn't exactly a friendly experience with no welcome, explanation as to the facilities.
There is a small tent field situated to the rear of the toilet/wash area which isn't very big but reasonably flat.
The toilet/wash area is not well maintained (no soap etc) and very small and not suitable for the amount of campers.
This is one of those sites that advertises tents welcome but it is clearly geared up for caravans and statics who do not require the basics.
Lovely setting but a soul-less, very average tent camping experience.

What a little gem of a site. First the down points, the loo's and showers are a little inadequate for the possible numbers of tourers using the site. Also it's a car ride from the nearest pub, The Guy Fawkes, however when you do get there it's a nice pub.
The good bits, very pretty site with a lovely walk to some small lakes, great for dog owners.
Very clean loo's etc and very friendly owners/wardens. Very close to Harrogate and Knaresborough and if your rich, the General Tarleton gastropub.
We have already booked for Spring Bank as we are going to the Car Rally at Ripley. Oh and by the way spend some time to go to Ripley village and castle. Beautiful

Booked this site as it was listed as 15 pitches for tents / touring caravans / motorhomes,so was suprised when we arrived to find a large static site and also a lot of seasonal caravan pitches. Tents are in a field towards the back of the site but very convenient for toilet / shower block. No marked pitches so it was a bit of a free for all but it's a big field with space for the children to play. Electric hookups are available in the field.
There is a play area but only suitable for older children and can't be seen from tent field.
As previous reviews, toilet / shower block was spotlessly clean but not enough facilities for the size of the site (only 2 showers in ladies) but great showers for a campsite.
In a great position for Knaresborough/Harrogate and surrounding areas. Enjoyed our weekend (the great weather helped) and would probably return.
