 Just had a week of brilliant weather here, this is our 5th time at this site and it just gets better every time we visit.
We visited white scar caves, kendal, skipton, keswick and took a cruise on lake windermere, it was a week enjoyed by all the family, we are visiting again before the children go back to school, this time we are bringing my caravan, see how we manage down that windy road, hope we dont meet any tractors this time.
Spent a lot of time down by the river getting sun tanned, we have recomended this site to all our friends, well hope we have as good a weather as we did last time, brilliant site for anyone with children, loads to do.

Been to this site many times and will continue to come back. Best place ever for a family chill as its no club and by 10pm its normally quiet.
There are lots of things to do close by, with great walks, caves and waterfalls. The site and facilities are always clean and well kept, and that's a credit to the staff, who also can not do enough for you. My 12 year old daughter loves it and would rather come here than the seaside!.
The pub in the village has a great selection of food and drink, which wont leave you out of pocket. The river at the bottom of the site is great for pond dipping but it can run fast after rain so little ones should be supervised.
All in all this has to be one of the best sites in the dales, I've not found better, but that's my opinion.
I only have two small gripes, sometimes the dog owners don't clean up after a scooby doo! (although its only a few) & too many people know about this great site, it's getting harder to get my tent erected at weekends.

I stayed here for three nights and I was very pleased with the site. There was ample room for me (although this didn't matter as I was on my own) but for the larger families it was great, the toilets were always clean even with the mud the toilets never got dirty, I did use the launderette which was £2 for the washers and 50p for the dryers, The dryers lasted for ages and ages for 50p so it was worth it.
The shop is basic but the shelves were always pretty well stocked with goods, They even sell gas cartridges for little stoves. I really enjoyed my stay here and will recommend it to anybody who likes camping, also ideal for families as there is a playground near the toilets, really there is no downfall to this site, I had brilliant views of the moors and could walk down to the river or stand on the stone bridge.
Lovely site and also a pleasant walk into settle using the "ribble way" route on the map.
Thanks to all staff and I will be returning again.

Visited the site yet again, been here about 5 times now, we came for a 3 day break with the kids. And yet again could not fault this site at all, everything thing was perfect, we still haven't been to the pub over the bridge, but we are coming again on the 30th of july, and will make a point of trying the pub out this time, the weather was boiling hot again. I hope we have good weather when we return in july.

Stayed here weekend of the 7th July as my Hubby was doing the 3 peaks in aid of the dog rescue we help out with .What can I say that hasn't been said already, this is a superb site in a fantastic setting, run by the most friendliest and helpful of folks.
Will we be back, of course we will time and time again I suspect

Took the wife on her first camping trip. Must first say a big thank you to all the members who reviewed this site and helped me make the choice of where to take her.
All I can say is this site is excellent. Spotless toilets and shower blocks and run by a very friendly family, perfectly placed on the river Ribble. Who can fail to marvel at the Stainforth Force, which is right by the site.
While there we bought ourselves a few walk guides and had a pleasant stroll to Catrigg Force, another marvel which is a short walk above the village of Stainforth, before returning to the village to the Craven Heiffer, a pleasant country pub, with good food, run by a very friendly couple.
We were so impressed by this site, we are returning in august and I dare say it will be a regular site for us when visiting the Dales.

What a lovely site. Our first visit here but won't be our last. Toilet block was spotless, best we have come across and especially liked the fact that the washing up area was also inside so no washing dishes in the rain!
Kids loved the park and the games room and plenty of room on the field to play etc.
Lovely stream running through the park and fab walks along the stream we ended up walking for about 3 miles and ended up in Settle which was a lovely village and found a nice pub for a spot of lunch and refreshment, which was needed after a lengthy walk! Would highly recommend this site.

Beautiful site, excellent facilities block, very friendly helpful staff. We arrived Sunday, pitched on a nearly empty site and had a wonderful week's walking. Friday afternoon saw an influx of weekenders who seemed to be less concerned about camping than having a party. Within hours the toilet block floor was swimming with water? or worse, and miles of unflushed paper all over the place. The staff soon had it clean again, but there was also a lot of noise late at night from people who don't know or care how to behave on a campsite. Half past one in the morning is too late for noise when you've got an 8 hour walk next day! The site is probably a victim of its own success, with the river and excellent ablutions block attracting people who maybe normally wouldn't camp. Would definitely go again, but not at weekends, bank holidays or school holidays.

We spent the weekend at This site 8/9th June. A real trip down memory lane as I use to go to this site with my parents, last trip being some 27 years ago.
The site is fantastically set out, we camped along with another family. Check in was nice and easy and the field where the hook up points were was very flat. Despite the site being full, there was plenty of space left, the tents and caravans were by no means packed in.
The amenity block was superb. Clean and well maintained with free showers.
Our children were just spoilt for choice with things to do, playing in the river at the end of the site, on the playground, in the games room, we barely saw them, they were so busy.
The owners of the site have done a great job and are very accommodating, he even opened the shop up late for us to change our gas.
All in all a fantastic site, cant wait to go back.

We have been camping for many years, and this is one of the best campsites we have been to. We stayed over the Bank Holiday, but the campsite was not crowded and the facilities were not overloaded. The family that run the site are really friendly and helpful. There are a number of different fields to pitch in, and one field with static caravans. The site is accessed by a barrier card system, for which you are asked to leave a £10 deposit, refunded when you leave.
The River Ribble runs along one side of the site and is lovely for paddles and swimming with the kids. Don't be tempted to try and drive over the stone bridge though, as we did, and nearly got stuck, as it is VERY narrow.
We had asked for an electric hook up and were allocated a pitch near to the playground and shower block. This meant that we could keep an eye on our two as they played, but did get a little noisy sometimes as kids ran around and people passed on the way to the showers/loos. The pitch was very level, although the rest of the field is on a hill, so you would need to choose you pitch carefully.
There is a fairly new shower block, built in 2003, which houses free hot showers (5 x men, 5 x ladies), ample toilets, washbasins and washbasin cubicles with curtains, launderette (with 2 washing machines, 2 tumble driers, hand-washing sink, and iron/board), free pot washing with 4 deep sinks . These were all spotlessly clean. The only time we saw any mess was after the grass had been cut on the site, and it had been walked into the block, but this was soon cleaned up so was not an issue. The block can only be accessed by use of a key which is issued when you arrive. I thought was a very good idea as it stopped kids from running around in them and making a mess.
The on site shop stocked the usual basic supplies and you could order a daily paper, but we tended to shop at Booths supermarket in Settle, which had some lovely fresh produce, and a playground near the car park to bribe the kids, who hated shopping!
During our stay we visited Settle, the beautiful Ribblehead Viaduct, Hawes for the Wenslydale Cheese Factory, White-scar Caves, Skipton, Malham Cove, etc. There is plenty to do in the area.
The only small blip in our stay was the noise made by a large family group that were on the site, who did not seem to think that the 10pm quiet curfew applied to them and insisted in playing football in the dark, until the site owners sorted things out, and restored the site to quiet again.
A thoroughly lovely site, surrounded by beautiful scenery, Highly recommended!
