 This was a return visit, we have always really enjoyed camping here.

Excellent location and facilities, camp site very well maintained and security staffed by "Big Boris"! you need to visit to know!

Staff very friendly and helpful, easy access to Aysgarth Falls and local walks.

We look forward to returning soon.

 Our second visit to Colmans and by coincidence on the same pitch.

We were a little disappointed this visit as we felt standards had slipped, given this was in the middle of the Covid 19 epidemic, the showers were not as clean as they should be with black mould round the shower tray edges and despite their claims of regular cleaning during the day it was not noticed by us and others on site.

Aysgarth Falls a must see visit and not far away, Aysgarth Falls hotel good beer and food. Bolton castle well worth a visit.

Not on our will come again list anymore, which is a shame as location is excellent.

 Ideal site, small, very friendly, a warm welcome.

Great camping field, play area, chickens, trees, excellent shower and toilet block, and great for campers in the rain, a shed with table, chairs and kettle.

The owners couldn't have been kinder. Thankyou.

 Fantastic little site, very welcoming and helpful owner, there was two Motorhome but only space for one, but offered us a grass pitch which was fine for us.

Facilities above and beyond our expectations for a small site, modern, very clean and warm.

No road noise at all. Walking to falls (well worth a visit) from site was great and after a great day in fresh air a very short walk to pub for tea, which in winter months you get 10% discount off if staying on site.

Would recommend to any type of unit as the camping area looked very well thought out.

Reviewer: BigErnie 32 reviews from this member

 We visited this site for the first time for a weekend stop over in November and it was fantastic.

We received a message from the owner during the morning before arrival allocating our pitch number as they were going to be out during the afternoon. The site was easy to find and once we arrived were please to see nice big hardstanding pitches that were easy to level up on.

The site itself is fairly new but it looks like a lot of hard work and love has gone into it over the past two years. There is a cabin housing the reception where you can pick up home made souvenirs, some lovely home cooked meals from the freezer and a great cup of coffee.

The toilet/shower facilities are modern and clean and a washer/dryer is available to use when booked through reception.

Walking is very easy from the site with Aysgarth Falls less than a mile away. Walking into the village is also easy there you will find a pub, garage which also serves as a very well stocked local shop, and a lovely Victorian Rock Garden which is well worth a look at if you are interested in history!

This is a great little site which we will definitely return to.

 What an excellent little site this is.

Stopped for a couple of nights during a longer tour. The owners got called away before we arrived, but sent a text to let us know which pitch to use, which I thought was good customer service.

The gravel pitches were great for the time of year and had patches of grass dividing them. The facilities were kept very clean and had proper showers rather than the annoying push button types. The little reception hut had home baked meals and puddings in the freezer and other bits and pieces.

There is a petrol station 2 minutes walk in to the village (expensive for fuel!) but this also had a very good shop attached to it; and next to it was the pub.

Great walking directly from the site and easy access to the road for any trips out in the van.

I look forward to returning next year.

Reviewer: Clappersgirl 11 reviews from this member

 It was a maiden voyage for two geriatric motorhome virgins so we didn't want to travel too far afield. But I think we have probably been ruined for other sites. This is a charming small site. We were on pitch 3 with a fabulous view over Wensleydale and a short walk to the shower block. A bit early and cold for camping so we had the facilities pretty much to ourselves. I imagine that if the tent field is busy then there might be queuing.

The showers and wash basins are, as attested by other reviewers, excellent. They are warm, well lit and immaculate at any time of day or night. The showers themselves are excellent after you have worked out how to work the two separate shower heads (one cold blast was enough to show me how to do it) but I must agree that a couple more hooks would be welcome.

We were advised on all the local sights by Matt which we duly viewed. These included, in addition to the ubiquitous Falls, a tiny rock garden in Aysgarth - at the other end of the village - which was charming, and the viewing of a gravestone in the churchyard by the Falls demonstrating the long-lived inhabitants. We did visit the very local pub, the George and Dragon, but found it to be a bit Jekyll and Hyde. We went one evening when it was busy and lively with an open fire warming everyone and had a lovely meal. We went the next evening just for a drink and found it cold with no fire lit, nearly empty and unwelcoming. Puzzling.

We also made great use of our bus passes on the local bus service. You can go from the stop in the village to Hawes one way and Leyburn the other, both well worth a visit. Though the timetable takes a bit of deciphering and we didn't go the same way twice. It's very much a local service for all the little villages.

All in all an excellent inaugural visit.

Reviewer: BertiesTravels 4 reviews from this member

 Unfortunately I have to agree with everything everyone has said previously. This site is totally brilliant with lovely welcoming and extremely helpful owners. Even their booking website makes it easy, rather than having to guess if they have availability and phoning round it's there in front of you on the website.

On arrival you are greeted in the nicest way possible, other sites could learn from this, and welcomed into the reception area where there are frozen ready meals, ice cream, homemade soup available to you. Lots of things to do in the area, Matt will point out anything you need to know, but a must do is the Aysgarth Falls. Also visit the Mill Race Cafe on the bridge over the falls, lovely people and fantastic food with good helpings. Muddy boots and dogs are welcome too! We walked the Aysgarth falls, Castle Bolton, Carperby circuit (8 miles) which was lovely but very wet and muddy at this time of year. Be aware too that the castle does not allow dogs anywhere in its grounds so we couldn't stop at their cafe.

Back to the site and probably some of the best showers you will ever see on a site. The facilities shine here, far outdoing any CCC club site I've ever seen. Power showers and warmth, lovely after a long walk!

The biggest negative for this site is going to be how popular it is. We really wanted to stay longer but they were full over the weekend, and I can only see this continuing as its by far the best campsite in the nicest area around. So book well ahead! We will certainly be returning to what we think is probably the best most well run CS site we have ever stayed on.

Thank you guys for such a lovely two night stay. You are doing a top job and we wish you every success! 


Date of Visit: February 2018 Unit:  Campervan
Reviewer: Summersmum 33 reviews from this member

 Friendly welcome. Easy to book online via their website. Lovely views. Good facilities and glad they were warm in the very cold weather. Two showers and two toilets in both mens and ladies. If I was being picky then a couple of extra hooks in showers would be useful. Dishwashing area outside. Slightly tricky exit for caravanners as on a bend. Not disturbed by A road at night. Hardstandings slightly on the small side. We managed to park our campervan so we weren't stepping into mud/grass on one side but better than being completely on grass. Separate small field for tents. Dog walk directly from rear of site - pinch stiles tight for dogs who are larger than a spaniel though if you walk to Aysgarth Falls! £21 a night is a little more than many other sites of this size charge but the facilities are good. Can never work out why campsites need to charge for dogs though!

Reviewer: Fiznlil 45 reviews from this member

 Reluctant to review as I want to be able to rebook!

Only thing to add to the below is that there is a little shop/reception on site which had home cooked frozen meals for sale.

There was a notice saying that breakfast sandwiches were available if ordered the night before

We were on pitch 2 and WiFi worked, friendly owner said that it dipped out every now and again but worked most of the time in the little shop/reception.

Had a lovely meal at Aysgarth Falls hotel. Take a torch for the 10 minute walk along the road to it.

If you have children (ours are grown up) there is a small play area.

Dogs appeared to be welcome on site.
