 Site location was good and was suprised how busy it was, especially with the weather being as cold as it was. Facilities basic but did us for the one night stay.
Pitch was £17.50 for two adults, dog and trailer tent for one night with hook up.
The village was quiet but again this was probably due to the time of year but can tell it'll get busy as the year goes on.

Expensive off season we thought. Stunning location, facilities fine, amazing little village with a couple of pubs (that do allow dogs). Only stayed one night instead of the planned two because the main field was not open and we didn't really like the idea of spending a weekend in with all the tourers on what essentially felt like a car park to us. Felt that it was steep to charge so highly when all facilities were not open. Main field does look gorgeous and we will return but owners should really alert people to this when they ring up or just put something on the website.

The site is well located in stunning surroundings, in the village of Dent. Walks are abundant with routes to Whernside and other Dales peaks. Dent also has its own station on the Settle-Carlisle railway; however, the station is actually 5 miles from the village up a very steep track. Dent has a couple of pubs, a cafe, convenience store, post office and other little shops, all of which are within a couple of minutes walk from the site.
The roads in the area a very narrow and winding, but well worth tackling as there are some excellent views, particularly if you take the road towards Ingleton.
When we visited, it rained solidly and there was talk of the village being flooded, but the touring field held out well and we were able to drive off the grass without a tow. The tent field on the other side of the road was, however, under about a foot of water!
Facilites on site were fine, but very basic: showers were very dated and a bit grubby and the shop sold a handful of essentials - which is why I was surprised to be charged £16.50 a night for two people in December. Nevertheless, the location made up for it and I'd have no qualms about using the site again.

Excellent clean site with good facilities and helpful owners and staff. Situated in the village of dent with local facilites close to hand. Site shop / office has a good range of supplies and information on the local area.
The site is split into 2 areas on either side of the lane with the main caravan area on the top field. We found the bottom field to be a little flatter. The site has 12 amp hookup so electrics shouldnt be a problem

What a fab location! Right on edge of delightful, picturesque village in the midst of some wonderful countryside. Village has everything we needed - couple of great pubs (super food in the Dragon), post office, couple of coffee shops and licenced grocers shop.
The site smashing - not crowded when we went - but having spoken to the owner would avoid in high season as she admits that it becomes very busy and it seems would be reluctant to turn anyone away. Site shop handy, loos and showers wouldn't win any prizes, but they were clean and functional. Overall facilities good and location excellent. Will be visiting again - early spring before the crowds!

We stayed here over the bank holiday weekend, it was very busy, but we had no problems waiting for the loo or shower. Margaret and all the staff were very helpful, and the site was kept very clean and tidy.
The site is split into 3 areas (or it was over the bank holiday), if we use the site again, and we probably will as the location is stunning, we will be asking to go on the middle field - so not as far to walk to loo or to wash up!
Dent is lovely, proper cobbled streets and friendly locals. Food in Sun Inn a bit disappointing though.
Only down point for me was lack of a play area on site, there is one near by but I wouldn't let the children go off on their own as it was across a road which, being bank holiday, was very busy.
Farm shop well stocked and if you forget anything at all, Margaret can rustle up whatever you have forgotten!
All in all for a first camping trip with an 8 week old baby, it was great!

The location is stunning, with some views across open fields and woodland. What lets this site down is the amount of tents and caravans they manage to squeeze into the fields, and the lack of toilet/ shower facilities.
The main field, which accomodates the majority of the campers has one toilet block , which do not have showers. The showers are in the section near to the main farm house, and only consist of a small number which are 20p for 3 minutes to use.
The village of Dent is very pretty, with the two pubs being welcoming although the food in the George and Dragon was nothing special.Not an ideal place to take the kids either as the locals think its okay to swear loudly and repeatedly.
The site was mainly used by families, but the kids have very little room to play as all available grass is used for tents/ caravans.

Have been coming to this site a couple of times a year. The site owners are nothing but helpful and go out of there way to do things The site is one of the most scenic I've ever pitched. Never had a problem with waiting for a shower but if you do leave it late morning they tend only to be luke warm The pitches are flat but can get some hilly areas if on overflow The village itself is beautiful thats why keep coming

I hosted a UKCS meet at this site in March, I found the site to be fairly easy to find and as has been said there a a couple of narrow bridges that look tricky but as I was in a car with a tent it didnt have much impact on me. Although I did see a low loader navigate them as I had to folow it !
Once on the site I was advised where we were pitching, and set up my unit.
The site itself is nice and flat and has in the top half of the site good facilities, its nice to see wash rooms with a toilet and basin in the same room so you can have a proper wash and not have to struggle in the main loos.
Margaret,The owner, was very helpful with any requests to her that I made, although was bombarded by a few of the group as the power was tripped by one of them on the Friday night, she was unable to rectify this this caused some problems.
This again happened on the Sat and the electrician came out and looked at the problem and this was due to the side of the site we were on being overcrowded, and people wanting to use all their appliances from home in their Tent! Before it was repaired Margaret did bring out hot water and water bottles for the children.
Although I do agree that on the Friday an emergency sparks should have been called.
The village itself is very beautiful and as I only went into one of the pubs( the Sun Inn, great food) I couldnt comment on the others.
Its a very lovely area and I would be happy to go back there in warmer times and not in -0 weather.
The only big draw back for me is that the road opens out on the main high street of dent.

This was my third visit to the site and this time took my sister and both dogs along with my 7 year old.
Lovely location and Margaret could not be more helpful even though it was extremely busy due to it being easter weekend.
Nice level pitch but found it a bit overcrowded especially with a relentless loud snorer in the next tent so earplugs are a must!
Considering how busy it was, the toilets were kept reasonably clean. Could do with more loos and showers would be handy on the bottom field.
My only real gripe was the amount of tents packed in and the health and safety issue of fire pits - got a couple of scorch marks on my brand new tent from the people behind burning goodness knows what.
Lots of great walks in the area and the scenery couldn't be more beautiful. Dent is fantastic with a couple of good pubs but again absolutely packed and I think the drink prices were hiked up over the weekend.
We will definitely keep returning but I think I may avoid bank holidays in future.
