 Lovely site, great location, washing/shower/toilet block modern and clean. 1 minute walk from pubs and cafes. Slightly sloping field but ample flat spots for tents.

Firepits available but bring your own logs, site supply compressed sawdust 'logs' but they are terrible.

Midges can be troublesome but that's camping in the uk. Citronella candles a must.

Overall, very impressed would definitely visit again.

 Fantastic campsite, great location and excellent facilities.

Lovely play area five mins walk, with quiet walking route at the back into the village.

There is a church next door which has a bell ringing throughout the night (every hour and half hour) but didn't notice it after the first night.

We enjoyed this campsite so much, we extended our stay and we will definitely be back.

 Great location - perfect for Dales Way walkers - and level pitches. The washroom facilities are among the best I've seen at a campsite; very clean and a real touch of luxury - particularly the showers.

A little expensive compared to some other sites, but the facilities are superior and we didn't have to pay for a car we didn't have.

I prefer to have a 'car-free' area, as the cars do churn up the grass a lot, making the field quite muddy in wetter weather - but I'm not sure this would be feasible. The heat trays provided for cooking were a useful addition.

 Beautiful location. Very clean toilets/showers and washing up room.

Friendly and helpful owner. Quiet. Even a group of 4 families were quiet by 11.

Village shop only a short walk away with excellent pubs.

We will definitely be back.

 What a little gem this site is, great location on the edge of a village with a few pubs serving food & great walks. We had to rearrange dates due to covid guidelines but the staff could not have been more helpful in finding a solution.

We couldn't have had worse weather, storms, hale etc but still had a great time & have already booked again for next year, fingers crossed for sun this time!

 This site is basically a field with a reception, pot wash and toilets and showers in one building to one side.

We arrived on Friday and were shown where to pitch our tents next to our friends, also on motorbikes and the owner took our money and we set up.

I feel that £10/night (and £15/night with EHU) a bit steep for a site of this type.

We went for a group ride on Saturday and returned to find our pitches had a number of camper vans in front and many more tents and campervans had also arrived.

The showers, toilets and wash basins looked to be of a high spec and the granite flooring also added to the quality feel but there are only 3 toilets and 3 showers. On Sunday morning you can imagine the queue to get a shower and the heavy footfall had taken the sheen of the effect of the block. I also had to wait for a shower to become available on Saturday morning.

The town of kettlewell looks quaint enough but I was staggered at the price of everything. Full English in the Cafe £10, any main course in the pub over £15.

There is a village shop but it wasn't open at the times I was at the campsite. The other nearest shop is in grassington which is 16 minutes away. (according to google maps)

Compare this to the erwlon campsite in llandovery we usually use for our rallies where there are more than enough showers and family wash rooms for a cost of £7. 50/night (10 with EHU), there is a supermarket within walking distance, a full English will cost £6 in the nearby cafe and the food prices in the pubs are reasonable.

In summary I found the whole area expensive and the campsite packed them in.

 A lovely site with fantastic amenities, kept clean and tidy all the time.

It was the scarecrow festival in the village - well worth planning a trip when it is on, especially with children.

I can imagine the site might feel a little crowded if all the pitches are used, but mid-week, it was great.

Reviewer: Lesleyguy 1 review from this member

 Fabulous, will definitely stay here again.

Quiet site with most people staying on site and cooking - rather than families going en-masse down the several pubs - and therefore peaceful and settled atmosphere. We went mid week and it was still reasonably busy, I suspect that peak season it may feel much busier as there are no marked pitches and I suspect it gets quite crowded and more noisy with kids.

It's prime DofE territory, so think about your choice of pitch. The group we encountered were right in the middle of the field so constantly traipsing past us - but that's our fault for choosing to be facing the toilet block, and in fairness they were reasonably quiet.

We were given key to access a family / disabled shower and toilet wet room which was perfect as one of us is severely visually impaired. We hadn't asked for this, but the owners went out of their way to help. A very minor criticism is the positioning of the washbasin and toilet could be better and means the toilet would be hard for some wheelchair users to access - washbasin is a bit close and toilet a bit close to wall in corner - but that really is nitpicking.

Great facilities - hairdryer and large fridges were a bonus, good generous pot wash facilities, stone path area and picnic benches for cooking if you don't have tables. 3 x toilet and good large shower cubicles per gender was plenty and they were very clean.

There is no outdoors shop in the village any more, and the village shop is very basic with hardly any food - best to bring your own and use the fridges.

Will definitely come again.
