 What a beautiful site this was. We had a fabulous time we were only there for a few days,but we really enjoyed it. Toilets showers and wash up area was kept nice and clean. The staff here were very friendly.The shop was well stocked and NOT over priced.

The games room was well used the night we went in Big Brother had just started[1st night].was on the tv [not my cup of tea] so we had a game of pool and left.there was a couple of video games,a sweet machine and a football table.[pool was only 50p a game] There is a stream that if it had been warmer you can paddle in it or use a dingy with care[adult supervision required] A play park for the under 13s was well used. We will return to this park hopefully it will be a little warmer.

Settle has a market on a tuesday,the day we got there,but sadly by the time we had unpacked and decided to go it was packing up time, 70p an hour for parking,i thought this was cheap compared to york.

We went to Hawes for an afternoon about 40 minuets away,to visit the cheese factory,[not much cheese due to the fire they had recently].

On the way to hawes we stopped at Ribblehead viaduct.

 Loved it.

We found it easy to book at pretty short notice for a tent without electric hookup. We were in the top field near enough to the play area to hear when any of the 5 kids were crying but far enough away to have quality time alone.

The staff were helpful and the shop basic but had the gas, crisps, choc biscuits and the fishing nets we needed. Had a day up Pen y Ghent which was arduous and fun and a brilliant day just playing in the shallow beatiful river 100 yards from the tent.

People were friendly and the kids made friends easily and had games of footy, cricket, and rugby. things settled down soon after dark and sleep was quiet and ok.

Settle was lovely too - the Fisherman was nice chippy to eat in and the camp shop Crag and Cave had some extra equipment needed when we realised son No.1 had outgrown stuff.

As others have said the toilet / showers were spotless and the water sometimes fine and sometimes luke warm

All in all brill and we will go back.

Well ok it is, its fab a truly magical place. Stayed there and my two Springys loved it, that was good enough for me.

 Once again a very pleasant stay at our favourite site.
The gents in reception were as helpful as usual. The site although busy was not cramped. The facilities, while tested, were always clean and available. I think the showers are new for this year too.
The shop is well stocked and reasonably priced for a camp site shop. Papers can be ordered and all the basics are there.
A walk to the nearby pub, picnic and paddling by the river, watching the kids enjoy themselves on the excellent park and the great scenery all made this weekend another great one at the site.

 Stayed over bank holiday weekend, friday till monday.
The site was fully booked, but it didn't seem cramped and there was loads of room to ptich. You could choose where to pitch yourself which was nice and at first we went to the top field but it is on a bit of a hill so we went for a look round and found it flat next to the playing field. The toilet block is only a short walk away from where ever you decide to pitch and it is one of the cleanest we have used, plenty of room in the toilets with wash basins with shower curtains. The showers are down a different door and they just seemed a bit small, there was only 5 for the ladies and 5 for the men. I found that when it was busy the hot water was just not hot enough it, it did wake you up, there is only one button to press and you can't change the temp, but they did the job.
The views are beautiful and the river adds some fun, we followed the river into settle one day, a good 2 mile walk, but well worth it.
The only down side was there we a few campers who didn;t take notice of the 10 oclock rule and where a bit noisey late into the night, but you always get some that are like that who like you to listen to their taste in music!
 
All in all a great site for all, but book early!

 Just came back from a long weekend and must say it is one of the best sites we have visited.Facilities where spotless from the showers to the indoor dish washing area. Kids loved the park and the games room which has sky t.v. There is a stream where you can paddle or fish and even watch scuba divers who where there at the time. We walked along the river for about 2 miles into Settle where we popped into one of the pubs for a well deserved drink or two and a spot of lunch.

The site has a small shop in the reception area which is well equipped.

We will definitely return.

 This site has the cleanest toilet and shower facilities of any site we have been to, though water could have been hotter. The site was not overcrowded despite it being a bank holiday with plenty of room around the pitches.
 
The river Ribble runs through the campsite and the kids really enjoyed it. They went swimming and paddling and the field running up to the river is great for sitting having a picnic or lazing in the sun. You can walk along the river and enjoy the wild primroses, wild garlic, waterfalls and deep pools in the river.
 
Settle is only 5 minutes drive away and has a good range of tea shops, pubs, chippies plus a Chinese take away and Indian restaurant.
 
Pitches we had were level and well drained, staff were friendly and helpful. The sites shop has the basics but can nip to the co-op or Spar in Settle. Not to much noise at night even though site was full, but 10pm curfew was not really enforced as far as we could see.

 Fantastic setting in the Dales. I went midweek so the site was virtually empty and it was so nice to be able to choose your own pitch.
Toilet block and showers are absolutely immaculate albeit a bit of a hike from the touring area, site itself was very well kept.
 
Take great care to follow the directions, the site is up Stackhouse Lane, you cannot access it from Stainforth itself. The approach road is quite narrow in places so not one for the fainthearted if you have a big van or unit although some had made it.
 
Site is in a valley so TV and mobile phone reception is poor to non existent unless you have a good aerial set up. The site does however have a WI-Fi connection for the internet.
 
Nearest pub (and food), is The Craven Heffer in Stainforth which is only about 10 minutes walk up a fairly steep hill, or if you want to drive there is lots of choice in Settle.
WIll definitely use again.

 Knight Stainforth Hall  was recommended to us towards the end of the 2006 season to us by some caravanning friends of ours , and became our first outing of the 2007 season .
 
Well , what can we say , you know when you drive into a campsite for the first time , and it just has that WOW factor about it that you find hard to put into words , well this campsite did that for us . Quite easy to reach ,but the surrounding area so very picturesque that you feel a million miles away from the rat race.
 
A good on-site shop with long opening hours , and we were told on arrival , that if ,say we ran out of gas for instance ,we could press the buzzer up to 10pm , for assistance . 
 
The shop/reception ,proudly displayed it's ukcampsite.co.uk sticker too we noticed
 
Upon checking in we were also given a good welcome guide booklet , full of things to do and places to eat / shop in the area
 
Nice friendly owners and nothing seemed to be much trouble .
 
A £10 refundable deposit is required , for a swipe card for the barrier into the site and also a key for the facilities block .
 
The facilities block , modern and always immaculately clean , and comprised of , Toilets / washbasins ,  Showers , Baby changing facilities , Pot washing and Laundry room
 
A good children's play area with swings, slide, see-saw and climbing stuff , and the area had that special flooring , that is soft and spongy underfoot
 
The site has a rule about space between pitches , so you'll never feel like your being packed in like sardines , and also has a no noise rule after 10.30pm , ( the kind of rules we like )
 
We found a nice pub , just a gentle stroll away , over the old stone bridge across the river at the bottom of the campsite ,called the Craven Heifer ,in the village of Stainforfth .
 
All in all , Knight Stainforth Hall campsite is Superb , and has become one of our favourite ones so far , cannot wait to go back  . SOON !

 We stayed here From Easter Sunday for a week. It was busy at first but the site was very well looked after and the staff were very helpful. Shop had the basics you needed. Toilet block was still looking new even after 4 years and was kept very clean. Excellent facilities. If you want good BBQ meat go to the butcher in Ingleton. Lots to do from the campsite or just a short drive away. Pubs worth a look in Stainforth too. A very positive and enjoyable stay.
