Date of Visit: October 2006 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Tikka72 9 reviews from this member

 Great site, very clean and tidy. Ideal base for visiting the 2 breweries. Nice amenities and cafe on site. Let down by the weather but what do we expect for October in a tent. Definite recommend if you have not been to Masham or surrounding area.

Excellent base for walkers and ramblers.

Reviewer: Madhouse007 11 reviews from this member

 Stayed here over Bank Holiday weekend in the overflow field. As first time campers, with a brand new tent we were really chuffed when the people on the next pitch helped us set up as we quite obviously didn't have a clue and took about 2 hours to pitch!

The actual site itself is very clean with a shop & cafe (lovely bacon, egg & mushroom sandwiches!). The shop doesn't stock a massive amount, but had milk, which was all we needed.

The shower block remained clean all weekend despite the site and overflow being full to bursting point and no noise particularly after dark.

10-15 min walk into Masham with some cracking Black Sheep at the White Bear (very dog friendly pub).

Will go back again sometime.

Reviewer: Campers11 2 reviews from this member

 Have been to this site twice now, and it doesn't disappoint. Have 2 children aged 11 and 9, but the fact this site doesn't have a play area, or indeed anything for the kids to do, doesn't detract from the site at all. The kids found their own fun, and it also helped to allow the site to quiten down naturally on a night, rather than having the owners having to enforce any "noise abatement" rules.
 The shower/ toilet block is exceptionally clean, and has regular visits by the cleaners throughout the day. Masham village is a 10- 15 minute stroll, and within easy distance are the many attractions of the yorkshire dales, including lightwater valley and aysgarth waterfalls.  
The site has its own shop with a cafe also serving food (check times for serving, didn't appear to open too often whilst we were there). All in all a very peaceful, well laid out site

Reviewer: Scud00 1 review from this member

 Stayed at the site for 2 nights. We found it very friendly, (my husband and I and our teenage daughter).
Short walk into the village to a choice of 3 very nice pubs, and one being a hotel where they sell very nice food. Also our first visit any where since the smoking ban, and found ALL the pubs catered for the smokers providing a HEATED area for the smokers, under the cover of gazebos. Certainly didn't make us feel like outcasts.  We had a very exiting walk back to the site in the dark! and lots of laughs.
The little town of Masham is very quaint, and lots of walks around the area, (and they are walks not hikes) for those of you who like to have a stroll.
Will most certainly be going back again.
The site its self is very clean and facilities are acceptable for the number of pitches, and friendly owners who will accommodate any special requests you have.

 We have just returned from our first ever family camping trip. Old Station was recommended by friends who stayed at the site last Bank Holiday weekend. As newby campers we were a little uncertain what to expect. We have had a great time. Our two year old son was in his element, running through the field behind the camp area.
Lovely, quiet location. Toilet and shower block on main site was really clean and well decorated. Shower water nice and hot if you were early. Great utility kitchen/washing up facilities, with dryers available on main site. The town of Masham is only a short 10 minute stroll away with pubs, shops, fish and chip shop, park, riverside walks, playing field.
Busy bank holiday weekend meant that the actual site and the overflow field were full. The toilet block on the overflow site was very basic and although the toilets themselves were clean the actual block was in need of a clean and a lick of paint. Plenty of bins provided on the overflow site, but the bins were overflowing as well. People were leaving the bags of rubbish by the side of the bins.
Plenty to do and see only a short drive away. Had a lovely morning out in Ripon, a stroll by the Cathedral and along the river side - with the obligiroty pint in the pub along the way, lots of little shops and boutiques.
All in all a great weekend - would definitely recommend the site, and would no doubt revisit ourselves.

Reviewer: Madjack 2 reviews from this member

 I was a bit nervous as it was our first time out in the van, I had no need to worry, the guy that booked us in showed me what to do with the hook ups etc.  Really clean and tidy site, the toilet and showers were spotless, will return for sure.  Masham is about a mile away by foot but there is a bridle path that cuts off about a third of it.

Reviewer: Thesaint 33 reviews from this member

 Stayed here for one night with a large group of friends, as said before the pitches are a bit on the small side. It's a very lovely, quiet site only 5 minutes walk from all the facilities of Masham and a few minutes drive from the Yorkshire Dales National Park. A smallish site meaning you never far away from the toilets/showers. The toilets were immaculate and clean with the showers being free. Never got to try the on-site cafe but it looked very nice. Very good value for money, for my dog and I(dogs are free) it cost £5.50 in High Season. Definitely will be returning here in the future.

 This has to be one of the best sites I've stopped on! Flat & well drained(It needed to be last weekend)
The toilet/shower block was spotless all weekend, even with the site jam packed and the weather not exactly clement. The pitch was roomy enough for a medium size tent, my wife's car, my motorbike & a barbeque with family and friends.
There is plenty to do in the area with Lightwater Valley not far away, the Forbidden Corner and Middleham Castle just up the road and Masham with it's two breweries and a great cafe on the market square only a 10 minute walk away. We will definitely be back.

Reviewer: Jwoody 6 reviews from this member

 Just returned from visiting this site.  This is a brilliant site for visiting Masham as it is only a 10 minute walk away.  We visited for the beer festival and thoroughly enjoyed it as we could stagger home!
 
The site was extremely busy and the toilet block was not as clean as it is generally.  Although this was also due to people not putting their dirty paper towels in the bin provided.
 
The site was quite muddy and saturated due to the amount of rain that had fallen in the last week.
 
The pitches are small but relatively flat.  If taking a caravan and awning, make sure you tell them as they have awning and non-awning pitches. 
 
There was no dog walk but there are good walks within 5 minutes.  Try the walk by the side of the River Ure.  It is on the way into Masham, just after the bridge.  Dogs can play in the river but be careful of the sheep grazing.
 
No play area for children but there is a good park in the centre of Masham.
 
The cafe is fantastic and does breakfast, lunch and dinner.
 
If staying here, book a trip to the Forbidden Garden at Leyburn.  It is 20 minutes away.  Tickets must be booked in advance but both adults and children loved it. Although some of the features can be a bit scary so minimum age is probably 3.
 
Overall would definitely visit again and as there is a steam rally on the 21st & 22nd July in the field opposite this would be a good time.

 Great site as always, friendly people who work hard to make your stay go without a hitch. The new "Tee Rooms" is more like a good restaurant. We had some great meals in there on Friday evening, and also top-notch cooked breakfasts in the mornings. The toilet block was always clean and tidy. The site was full for the weekend (22-24th June) as there was a beer festival on in Masham, just 15min easy walk up the road, great event with live music on both nights. Full selection of tents (there were 15 of us there for a motorcycle club weekend so we had a pre-booked area cordoned off for our use) also caravans, trailer-tents, folding campers and motorhomes, all mixed in together with no problems that I saw. The toilet block was usually full in the morning as the site was fully booked, but not a problem. Selection of basic food items and soft drinks for sale in the reception. Breakfasts, lunches and main meals available in the upstairs restaurant, or outside at picnic tables. The village (Masham) is 15 mins easy walk, with two breweries to visit, also 4 or 5 pubs, a fish n chip shop, a Co-op shop that was well stocked, and various other shops to visit. Site is an ideal base to explore the Yorkshire Dales, also Lightwater Valley amusement park is 10 minutes drive away.

Reviewer: Aitch62 1 review from this member

 Spent a very happy six nights at the Old Station. Facilities were of a very high standard and spotless. Masham is a ten minute stroll along a footpath. For lovers of Real Ale it is a must. Two breweries and enough pubs selling great local food and Ales. The White Bear was my favorite. If your looking  too get away from it all you wont find a better place. What a little gem.

Reviewer: Bayinthevillage 5 reviews from this member

 This is one of my favourite sites ever! The people are so friendly and helpful; last time we were there our neighbours kid locked the keys in the car and the family running the place bent over backwards to help, even running them to a town nearby to get a meal! 
 The shower block is spotless and really modern. The only slight downside is the proximity of neighbours, but it's generally quieter in the week so you get more space then. Not much in the way of facilities for kids, but great walks nearby.
Just thinking about sitting outside the White Bear pub with a Wensleydale and beetroot sandwich and a glass of Old Peculiar is enough to bring a tear to my eye!

Reviewer: Richosimon 3 reviews from this member

 Just returned from a great weekend at this site. The facilities were excellent and the owners were really helpful and friendly. The pitches were flat and we didn't need ramps at all making pitching easy. Masham village is only 10 minutes walk with great beer ,food and a park for the children.
Only criticism would be the size of the pitches the smallest and closest together I have seen in quite a few years of camping and caravanning also very little area for the children to play. We will still return for another weekend as we use the site only as a base for sleeping and eating.

Reviewer: Sbond219 4 reviews from this member

 This was one of the best sites that we have stayed at so far. The toilet block would be worthy of a five star rating. What makes this site is all the little touches like cups in the bathroom , and the washing up tools in the pot wash area which are all free to use. We did not get to use the restaurant this time as we went on the Black Sheep Brewery tour and had a meal afterwards which was really great and I would recommend it and hopefully when we return we will use the on site restaurant. We are really looking forward to our next visit

Reviewer: Reed26 4 reviews from this member

 We stayed on this site last year and enjoyed it, the facilities were great, the only thing missing was a shop on site for the odd thing like milk and eggs. They were in the process of building a reception area, so we returned this year to see how it was going and we were not disappointed. The new reception and restaurant is wonderful, we had a meal there and it was lovely and well worth it. We enjoyed it so much we are returning soon. The family that run the site are very friendly and nothing is to much bother.The walk into Masham itself only takes about 10 minutes plus the surrounding area is lovely.  It is definitely worth a visit.
