 Fantastic place, such a nice place to be. Very busy leading up to the bank holiday weekend but still felt like a secluded small site. Very dog friendly with lots off long walks and open fields. Our 3 year old daughter loved it here and we will be back very soon. The fishing ponds are lovely with ducks swimming and lots of nature to explore. Well done to the owners for keeping such a good site.
My only niggle is there was only one swing for the kids, not a massive problem but when your toddler wants a go on the swing well you will know what I mean.

We have just returned from four nights stay here. On arrival we were early, so asked if possible to just park up and look around. This is a great family friendly campsite. Toilet/shower blocks are clean, warm and play lovely music 24hrs. I had to use the laundry room too once and found it to be clean and the shop stocked everything I needed. We did have trouble with a tent which parked up beside us being loud and rude. After having a word with the staff, the group was asked to leave as a few families had complained. My children loved that they could play safely out till gone 9pm. They enjoyed to two parks and games room.
Only downside I can think of was we were pitched quite a distance from the toilet block, during the night when one of the children had to go, It was very dark and no lights to help light the way. This is only a minor issue as it only happened once and could be rectified next time by requesting to go nearer the toilets.
We visited Forbidden Corner, Aysgarth falls, the chocolate factory, the teapot making factory, stockelm park and Ripon races. We had a 9, 6 and 1 yr old and everyone of the places we visited we thoroughly enjoyed as a family.

Just spent a lovely 2 night stay at woodhouse farm. Nice and clean and very pleasant. Shower block very clean and wash area clean. Farm staff happy and always spoke. Site very spacious and will definitely going back next year with grandkids as there is 2 play areas situated at top of site and at the bottom of the site. (the barn ) the pub which does a lovely pint (which I sampled 1 or 2 pints ) and nice food.

What a lovely campsite!
We arrived to a friendly reception and were given a map and directions to our pitch.
We were pitched in the bottom field next to the children play area, there was nobody else in this field for the first 2 nights, so it was peaceful, apart from the children who came to play on the equipment for a few hours at night, but they soon went about 9pm/ dark.
Found the top field (electric hook up) very busy and much closer pitched together than other fields.
A short walk up hill to the facilities but exercise is good for us!
Loved the pub on site, had a meal there and found it good. Although felt drinks prices a little expensive.
Shower blocks were fine, no queues, warm water, fairly clean, however shame to see some users not cleaning up after themselves. There is a mop and bucket to use after showering.
Games room kept 2 12year olds entertained!
Visited Fountains Abbey, Pateley Bridge (oldest sweet shop in England) Coldstone cut (quarry) and generally lazed at the campsite watching the world go by!
Kids enjoyed morning rubbish collection, by man on tractor and trailer around the campsite.
Overall we enjoyed the stay at Woodhouse Farm, but as we left we did wonder if we would want to be so close to the kids play area on our return, especially if it was a busy period.

Wonderfully clean site, including the dog walking meadow. Kids loved the games room, plenty to do. Shower/toilet block very clean & cleaned on a regular basis, plenty of hot water. Plenty of drinking water taps around. Lovely little pub and good priced shop. All staff friendly/helpful & the recycling system is great. Pitch sizes are great, best I've been on & have already recommended this site to friends. We felt very safe on the site and stayed in the top paddock, where I will stay again.

Excellent campsite made very welcome. Good play ground to keep my daughter entertained. Clean toilet facilities very good disabled facilities. Would recommend this site and will go back. Good flat pitches with lots of space. Handy shop and bar on site. Good washing up area. Code to get in and out of site made it feel safe. Went round lots of villages with great shops. The site does really well by going around and collecting all your recycling.

Visited this campsite with 2 other families over the Whit weekend. We all have pretty big tents but this was not a problem. There was plenty of room in the over-flow field. The campsite is well maintained and managed. The toilet block was clean and tidy although there were often queues for the showers in the morning.
The surrounding area has plenty to offer and we were never bored. I would recommend this site to friends and family.

This was our first camping trip and it was painless. I was impressed straight away by Woodhouse Farm when my enquiry was dealt with extremely promptly and efficiently.
Check in was quick and easy and although it was half term and we had a reserved pitch we were also given a choice - pretty much told to choose but then let them know where we'd ended up.
Camping was around the edges of the paddocks with play equipment in the middle and plenty of space for children's games. Pitches were large, ground was manageable and pitches drained quickly even with 3-4 days solid rain.
Toilet blocks were really nice. In 5 days I never encountered a lack of soap or toilet paper. Despite the constant rain the floors were kept clean and there was a mop and bucket on hand for the shower area. Showers were a perfect temperature and had adequate water pressure.
There were three different outdoor play area for the kids and also an indoor area with football table, table tennis, pool table and a bouldering wall! This was very welcome in the rain.
The laundry room also housed a freezer which could be used free for ice packs and even contained some campsite owned ones that could be borrowed if necessary.
There's plenty of recycling points around the park and even a daily tractor run which comes around the pitches collecting any recycling.
We didn't use the Barn Restaurant but it looked welcoming.
The pot wash area was undercover and the water plentiful and hot. The sinks were rather small and close together which was difficult but made for a very sociable area where the days activities were discussed and ideas for entertaining children in the rain were shared. The play area for the very youngest children was right by the pot wash which many found useful.
I would certainly return to this site as we have still to visit many local attractions due to the inclement weather during our stay.
This campsite is extremely well placed for Fountains Abbey, Brimham Rocks, Light Water Valley, The Forbidden Corner and The Black Sheep Brewery.

Very good staff. Large field for the kids to play on, ample room for football, that can be easily viewed from your pitch. Nice little play area in the barn. Close to Fountains Abbey, spent a very good 3/4 day in there and a full day in Lightwater Valley,
Take note of the directions on the web site, do not follow your sat nav down the very tight road.
Most pitches looked level. Good selection of ale in the pub
Clean toilets and other facilities.
Will be booking again

Woodhouse Farm is a lovely campsite to visit which is set in a beautiful rural area on the outskirts of Ripon.
This quiet, family friendly site has many positive features:
Staff are very friendly at Reception with a little shop selling basic provisions and reasonable kids' toys;
Adequate dish washing, shower and toilet facilities;
A good family room offering a large bath, child sized sink and adult sink, toilet, hairdryer and chair for £2;
A small toddler bathing room in the ladies toilet which is free of charge;
A barn pub called 'the barn' which offers reasonable priced hot food and sunday lunches. I cannot really comment on the quality or atmosphere as we didn't visit it, but it seemed very busy.
An open play barn with a ping-pong table, pool table, play tables with snakes and ladders and a corner of the barn dedicated to a climbing wall, and picnic tables placed in here too.
The size of the pitch was very spacious. There was ample space for a large awning, a car and a caravan.
There was a great space for children to play in a bottom field where kids were happily playing football, cricket and a climbing frame down there.
Adjacent to the dishwashing facilities, there was a smaller play area for younger children which was excellent.
Chickens would aimlessly roam the site which was also lovely to see.
The overall campsite is undulating and would recommend that anyone visiting it with a caravan or motorhome may want to ensure they have plenty of chocks or wheel ramps to level the van. We didn't have the wheel ramps and it didn't affect our enjoyment of this site as this is a minor point about this site.
Overall, Woodhouse Farm has given us a lovely stay and would definitely recommend this campsite and would visit again.
