Date of Visit: July 2009 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Thepats 2 reviews from this member

 This was our first time out in our new tent. The site was fine and well maintained. The loos and showers were clean although the water was luke warm and having to keep a button pressed to ensure water came out was frustrating.
It was a handy base for us as we were going to a concert at nearby Ripley Castle; also handy for visiting Knaresborough and Harrogate. This was a busy weekend with definitely more than 15 pitches; that said we didn't feel cramped.

 We have just spent two nights (fri and Sat) at this site. Our two children ages 6 and 2 had a fantastic weekend, the great weather certainly helped! We found the site to be clean and well maintained.
The tent field was more the adequate in size for the amount of tents pitched. The toilet block was immaculate, the showers were clean and over the course of a fairly busy weekend for campers we never had to queue once for the showers or toilets. The only downside to the showers was the fact that you had to hold the button down to keep the shower running which was difficult whilst trying to shower the children.
The site was quiet on a night which was amazing considering the a amount of children there but there was no noise at all after 10 pm.
We liked the way that all the tents were pitched around the edge of the field therefore giving the children the whole middle section for playing games. We did not use the playground as the children had enough space to play in the field.
We will def be visiting this site again, probably one of the best sites we have visited!

 We visited this site over the weekend, Friday to Sunday. We found the site very pleasant. The toilet block is very clean, three toilets, two showers, there is a hairdryer (20pence charge). However there are no plugs for you own hairdryers / strengtheners.

There is a separate field for tents, which is flat and off a good size.

The nearest pub, The Guy Fawkes Arms, is one mile away, approximately a 15 minute walk. We went there for an evening meal on the Saturday, it is recommended to book in advance, we found the food and service to be of a good standard, around £10 for a main course.

We had a lovely weekend and we will definitely revisit.

 What a pleasure it was to stay at a 'Clean quiet and peaceful site, toilets and showers were always clean and tidy.', the owners are friendly and helpful, there were some children on site but were very quiet and wouldnt have known they were there. Ended up staying extra night. Will definitely visit again

Reviewer: Lilly 05 5 reviews from this member

 What a lovely site, great views, we went off season so it was nice and quiet, though as we were v close to the children's playing area, I'm not sure if I would have been as happy during peak season.

Friendly staff, good amenities, Knaresborough and Harrogate within 15 mins car drive, we will go back.

Reviewer: Michmac 5 reviews from this member

 Stayed here after arriving on spec and finding this the only site in the area with any vacancies. Warden very helpful. Spacious pitches and level site. Toilets very clean but number of cubicles inadequate for the size of the site. Found the site to be a bit noisy at night due to children and radios playing till late. Site would benefit from numbered pitches as we pitched on the wrong one to start with. We were pitched close to the rubbish skip which must have had a couple of months worth of campers trash in there; you can imagine the pong and I should think the rodents were having a feast at night in there. I didn't see any fire safety equipment either which isn't very reassuring; I'm sure it was there somewhere but it's nice to know where just in case. A leaflet detailing this and other site information would be a good idea. Would we stay again?.Possibly but not near that skip! 


Date of Visit: April 2007 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Jonks121 4 reviews from this member

 Nice campsite with clean washrooms and free hot showers.  Only 2 shower cubicles in each room causing queues at peak times.  As other reviews, no hand wash in the toilets after the first day.
 
Small play area on touring field which is not ideal for families camping in tents as children would be of view from the tent field.
 
Hook ups available on tent field, small shop which has limited stocks although there is plenty of shops in nearby Knaresborough (2 min drive)
 
Would not hesitate returning for weekend breaks.

Reviewer: The Gs 3 reviews from this member

 The owners were very friendly and helpful and this would be a lovely site but for the many groups of children still running around making a lot of noise well after 10:30pm, even though it was dark and raining.  Only 2 toilets on site (always clean) which was just not enough for the amount of  campers/caravaners and so consequently always had to queue, also no soap/handwash in toilets.  
Ideal location for visiting many places of interest and local attractions, Brimham rocks are well worth a visit.

Reviewer: Two Rs 5 reviews from this member

 Nice site. Good pitches - very level with lots of space. Toilets & showers were very clean. The site has a small shop which sells the basics, although fresh bread & alcohol are not stocked. We found the site very convenient for Ripley Castle where we had passes for a concert by "Off the Wall".

As it was the first day of the school holidays there were quite a few boisterous kids running about and three different groups were competing with each other to be camp DJ, but by around 10.30pm the noise had calmed down and we enjoyed sitting outside the tent with a bottle of wine. Good for a weekend break.

 Lovely, peaceful campsite. Had a long weekend here with friends. The site is ideal for families with well spread out pitches and a playarea for the kids. Toilets and showers are clean and not too far from main tent/tourer area. The site staff were very friendly and helpful.
There's a decent walk into Knaresbrough if you pick up the Knaresbrough Round walk trail down past the river Nidd.
