Just got back from a 2night stay on this campsite. Views was excellent really quiet and peaceful. Wensleydale cheese factory 7miles from the site.
It rained the 1st night we stay and it was freezing but we got the bbq going and put a bit of fire sticks, off it went, nice and warm.
Lady owner very nice and friendly we had a warm welcome from her. Def worth a visit even though we got lost twice!
No mobile phone signal on my network, I was using google maps on my phone it got cut off 3 times.
The toilet facilities were excellent and always clean even at night.
There's a small village pub a short walk from the campsite as well. Definitely coming back this year again. Lovely!

Just got back today sat 26 from yet another great week at usher gap, we find it a very friendly & welcoming site. The toilets & showers are basic but are very clean. The surrounding country side is to die for, fantastic walks. Great scenery,and plenty of wild life, we even had the biggest hedgehog I have ever seen in our tent twice. A short walk down the lane in the village is the farmers arms hosted by Dave& Sheila, two of the best people you could ever meet, we definitely will be going every year.

Friendly site in a beautiful location and a good base for walking breaks with a number of walks in the vicinity. Toilet facilities as mentioned by others are limited but as there were only 3 tents around when we visited this wasn't an issue.
I have to reiterate the warnings about midges - after 8.00pm it was impossible to sit outside without being thoroughly molested by them. Luckily the pub in Muker is only a short walk away so we were able to take refuge there.

I know that a lot depends on the weather (and it WAS gorgeously hot & sunny when we camped here) but.
This is a brilliant site! It's in a lovely location, quite remote but good for walking (we walked along the valley to Keld & back) and the Dales are a lot less busy than the Lakes.
The site itself, as the previous person mentioned, is pretty basic but that isn't a bad thing. The toilets are clean & bright but the washing up sinks could do with a face lift. We stayed in the larger field & there was very little noise apart from the cute farm dogs! There was lots of room for the children to play.
The only downside was the fact that it got quite midgey after about 9.30 so we had to sit inside but we were ready for an early night after our walk & beer in the pub.
Talking of which, the Farmers Arms in Muker (about a 10 minute walk through fields) was excellent - good beer & the food looked yummy - we didn't eat there but lots of people were.
This is definitely a site to come back to, probably best for a weekend away for good walking & food & drink!

A small, unassuming campsite that suits a particular type of camper. It is run as part of a small farm.
The main 'field' is a relatively small strip sandwiched between a beck and the road. The road is only a B road and so doesn't get a lot of traffic. When this field is full a second, larger field is opened up on the other side of the road next to the cow shed. We didn't notice any intrusive noise from the road or from farm animals. However, the May late BH weekend we picked featured a steady howling gale the whole time!
There is only one toilet each for both male and female; two showers and two dishwashing sinks which double up as basins for shaving and washing. It also has an electric shaver point. There didn't appear to be anywhere to dispose of portable toilet waste; I used the Gents wc, but I don't use chemicals. There is also a fresh water point.
And that's it, there is nothing else.
As I said, it suits those campers who want the more simple, basic type of site, with a price tag to match. I had a brief chat with one man who had returned every year for over seven years, so it isn't all that bad.
The site is just outside Muker, which has a shop/Post Office and a pub. Muker is about 5-10 minutes stroll from the site.
If you like the simple life and are either prepaed to queue for facilities when the site is busy or are prepared to be flexible, then this site is quite nice. It's a great base to go walking.
