 The site has 2 touring pitches which are near the entrance of a static caravan site. The site looks pretty shabby.

The touring pitches are sloping and approach 5 metres long.

Would not recommend staying here.

 Just returned from a 3 night break in a site owned Caravan. Cheap break £25 per night dogs free.

No running water as we already knew. Inside the caravan was

Like stepping back to the 1980's not been updated in any way.

Sorry but looked quite shabby. Well worn seating hurts you bum after sitting on it a little while. Bed looked like it had been made ready but on inspection found only top pillow cases had been changed. Found used tissues tucked under pillows. Pillow cases on other pillows also very grubby. Glad I had taken our own bedding. Had a gas cooker with 4 rings grill and oven you need to kneel down to light oven.

Very old shabby gas fire didn't use it. Found a gas check certificate in a cupboard dated 1989 ! Signed by the owner !

Toilets on site very dated and always dirty even though not many on site.

 Just returned from one night here. Bit apprehensive from reviews, but was pleasantly surprised and will be returning. Facilities very dated but clean and quite usable. Hired static was basic but nice and clean, no loo or running water. Would take a couple of jigsaw mats next time as ground gets muddy in wet weather. Peaceful, walking distance to village centre and waterfall. Didn't meet the owners. Bargain break, can't wait to go again.

Reviewer: Jaspergucci 27 reviews from this member

 We stayed here for 1 night on our way to Scotland. I am sorry to say that if it had been for longer we would have moved site. On the plus side, it is very cheap but you get what you pay for.

The site is predominantly static caravans which seemed to be quit old from the outside. We were in our own caravan so cannot comment on them but the toilet and shower facilities were old and in need of a complete over haul.

The village of Ingleton itself is lovely and the waterfall walk is especially breathtaking. All in all, if you want value for money or a stop over this is adequate but would not recommend for any length of stay.

Reviewer: 123diane 8 reviews from this member

 We stayed at Holmehead farm for the second time this year.

The location is fantastic within easy reach of walking, shops & lovely pubs. If you want to drive out to places it is in easy reach of some more lovely towns, skipton, kirkby lonsdale etc.

The owners are very friendly & welcoming.

Tv reception not very good but did work occasionally.

Site is kept tidy but in need of updating. There are two showers & toilet block which are in need of updating. 2 sinks for washing up, but we had our own facilities.

If you want to stay here would definitely recommend this site for location.

Reviewer: Darby1963 6 reviews from this member

 A lovely peaceful site totally adequate if wanting to use as a base to do the waterfall trail. Literally a stones throw away.

Site is tidily kept but in need of updating. There are two shows which if decor had a bit of tlc would be the most powerful showers we have come across.

Tv reception non existent until site owner rigged us up to main site ariel.

Cheap and cheerful site and lovely surrounding area and pubs to visit.

You can visit skipton which is about an hour away

We were very fortunate with the weather for November but would definitely use the site again. 


Date of Visit: April 2010 Unit:  Static
Reviewer: Gh7815 6 reviews from this member

 Arrived for a few days break in the Easter holidays, stayed in a static caravan.

Good points:

1. Caravan was very cheap (£20 / night or thereabouts).

2. Site is in a good location (within Ingleton village) which is the obvious centre of the Dales for most stuff (e.G. Malham cove, 3 peaks, etc).

3. Owners tried their hardest to solve the problem with the caravan below, although ultimately not successful in my opinion.

Bad points:

1. Before we got there, we had been made aware that the caravans had no running water + toilets, so we knew it was going to be cheap and cheerful. However, the caravan we had seemed to be suffering from damp (carpets were damp) and consequently the place had quite a strong smell of damp. To be fair, the site owners brought out a dehumidifier, although the smell never left the caravan and if anything got worse as the place dried out.

2. I'm a city lad by upbringing, so perhaps I was a little over sensitive, but we could have done without cockerels at 4:45am every morning.

3. Although the river is very spectacular at the bottom of the site, and although danger signs are present, it is unfenced. Clearly something to bear in mind if you have younger children / toddlers.

4. Showers within the Shower block were not brilliant. Controls appeared to be slow to respond, so easy for children to get the wrong (hot) temperature water when getting showered.

Summary:

We could have been unlucky, but our caravan did appear to be suffering from a fairly bad case of damp, which was a major downer for the holiday. To be fair, the caravan was extremely cheap and a welcome contrast to the Haven Holidays type sites and the site was well located.

 Stayed here in our mothorhome. Owners really friendly. Although the statics have no water or loos they looked very clean inside and well maintained. We were glad though that we had our own facilities as the shower / toilet block needs replacing. Great location - its in centre of village, the Ingleton waterfall walk is next door and the three peaks are within a 10 minute drive.

Reviewer: Edwardsm 1 review from this member

 Myself and a group of friends have been visiting this site for the past 16 years, every year! The reason? Well it's such an unspoilt slice of the British countryside that hasn't changed in the last 16 years (and probably the 200 years prior to that!)
Its cheap, friendly, in an idyllic setting and close to some superb pubs for drinking and eating. We go walking from the caravan each year and spend a lazy weekend of conversation, laughter and socialising in the village. Its a magical place and an escape from the busy towns and cities in which we live ! The local people are very friendly and helpful and pull a cracking pint.
The caravan site itself is very basic but has everything you need to survive a February weekend in the Yorkshire countryside. Long may it continue and fingers crossed it never changes !
Long live Mrs Morphet!

Reviewer: Colsmith 1 review from this member

 Our third visit to Mrs Morphets and to the caravan site that time forgot. Lovely setting alongside the river in ingleton, minutes from the waterfalls walk but take note: if you are looking for luxury do not come here! The majority of caravans are at least 10 years old if not older. They have no running water or toilet facilities in the vans and the toilet block is at best shabby and none too clean tho the site owners do clean it occasionally. Two dirty showers service the whole site so be prepared to queue!
Your kids though will make tons of friends although if they are footballing mad beware there are no ball games! Bring your own blankets as the ones provided are threadbare and tatty. Everyone we spoke to comes year after year or else it was their first time and they were booking for next year already! Beautiful setting minutes from the most finest walks in England really truly. If you look at it as camping and roughing it with a bit of luxury IE telly and proper beds you will love it.
