 Just returned from 3 nights at Street Head on our first camping trip.Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Slightly sloping field, 250yds to toilets, showers, laundry and free washing up facility. Plenty of hot water and mop and bucket to clean shower. Plenty of offers of assistance from Mark for us novices.

Lots to do in the area which is beautiful. Good pub next door and the Wensleydale Semer Water beer was divine. Nice, relaxed atmosphere and would certainly use Street Head again.

 The camp site is on a severe slope but the upper part - for caravans is flat - it was pouring with rain when we arrived (not their fault) but it was a problem for vehicles on the steep slope - other sites we have used have large rubber mats etc to help you move around - the toilets were 250 meters (at least) away & unfortunately were not as clean as one would expect - cobwebs even !

The hand wash sinks had plenty of hot water - the showers 20p in a slot were terrible - I had 60p worth & NO HOT WATER AT ALL - Just Cold. There was no disinfectant/water/bucket/mop to clean the shower after you used it - not very good at all - however if I thought this was bad it was nothing to the lack of hot water in the washing up sinks (you pay here as well) & the room had dirty floors, filthy windows and matted cobwebs on the door.

Plus side - lovely area, decent pub at top of site

Needs some time spent cleaning the place & bringing the facilities up to standard

 Whilst the weather wasn't kind, we got to sample the local pub. The menu looked fabulous and the food that was served to others looked good enough to eat!

The tent field was on a 35-40 degree angle and you may need to think about the way you pitch your tent. The tent field was about 250 metres away from the toilets and the showers. The static caravans are right next to the toilets, but the land at the top is slightly more horizontal, so I guess that's why.

The shower floor was filled with mud and there wasn't a bucket and mop to clean the floor with as there is on other camp sites. No hand towels in the toilets which was disappointing and I'm sure against Health and Safety standards.

Not the best camp site I've ever been to.

 Site is well signposted from the main Leyburn to Hawes road. Site is split into 3 areas - statics, tourers and tents. Tents needing EHU can be accommodated on both static & tourer areas. Tent field has a few level pitches but is mostly sloping. 2 taps for water in tourer field, another outside toilet block next to CDP.

Toilet blocks basic, showers cost 20p. Hot water for washing up also costs 20p, but lasts long enough to fill a sink. There is no shop, but site sells calor gas. No play area & as the site was very busy when we visited there was not so much room for children to play.

There is a pub right next to the site that welcomes both children and dogs. Wonderful views & plenty of wildlife - we had to evict a hedgehog from the tent at 3 o'clock in the morning. One black mark - no soap in the toilets to wash hands - no-one appreciates having to take a bar of soap with them every time they need to use the toilet! Departure was relaxed and unhurried.

 Really great site. Toilets and Showers perfectly acceptable. Pub on site that looked like all the locals were using it for dinner. Aysgarth really near by, as is Leyburn town centre. It is ideally located for visiting Forbidden Corner. If you haven't been there make it a priority. Fun for all ages, labrynith's and mazes galore. Camp/tent area is on an incline so we did roll to the corner of our tent by morning! It was our first time and can't wait to go again.

 Originally booked in at a site just down the road, but a mistake with bookings meant we were not happy and decided to try Street Head Farm instead.
We had stopped here during August Bank Holiday 2003 and enjoyed it but found the facilities quite a trek, having pitched at the very bottom of the bottom field (sloping but lots of space).
This time we got an electric pitch on the top field (flat and lots of space), not so far to spend a penny (or 20 for a shower).
The facilities were always clean with plenty of hot water for the wash basins (some hand soap wouldn't go amiss, though).
There was loads of space for the kids to run & cycle about as the bottom field was virtually empty and only ourselves (two families) on the top field tent pitches (vans pitch on hard standing around the perimeter of the field).


There is a good pub next to the site and the villages of Thoralby and West Burton are just a short walk, both with pubs and the odd shop. Leyburn and Hawes are approx 10 miles away to the East and West and Kettlewell is not much further to the South. This makes the site ideally located as a base for exploring the dales, both on foot or by car.
Overall a super site. Hopefully won't take us four years to visit again.
PS. Weather was glorious which always helps when camping!

Reviewer: Patsypooch 2 reviews from this member

 We were struggling to find a campsite with vacancies for a busy July weekend and this was a bit of a last resort as they could fit us in. The lack of any reviews on the website did put us off a bit as well.
However the campsite was fine.  Tents can camp either in the middle of a caravan section which is closer to the toilet block or down the next field which is sloping but loads of room.  We chose the latter and did find ourselves rolling to the bottom of the sleeping bags a bit but the huge amount of space and the fact that it was an enclosed area meant that the kids could play quite happily.
Facilties are basic - plenty of toilets and two showers (20p) on each side. All was kept pretty clean and the heaters in the showers would be great on a cold day.
There is no site shop but there is a good pub on site and the food was pretty tasty. 
 
The site is ideally placed for visits to Aysgarth Falls, Hawes and Leyburn and is in a perfect setting.
 
Cost £12 per night per tent - regardless of the number of people.
