The morning mist lifts off the Ribble valley in slow ribbons, and you wake to nothing but birdsong and the quiet of proper Yorkshire Dales country.

Orcaber sits in the heart of the Three Peaks territory, so it draws walkers serious about bagging Pen-y-ghent, Ingleborough and Whernside, but also families after space to breathe and campervans touring the Dales at a gentler pace. You're right on the edge of the national park here, with dry-stone walls stitching together green fields in every direction and Settle just down the road for supplies. It's a classic North Yorkshire base — rural, unfussy, the kind of spot where you pitch up, brew tea on the tailgate, and plan tomorrow's hike over an OS map.

The site keeps things straightforward: tents, campervans and caravans all welcome, with toilets and showers onsite. Check about campfires when you arrive. The vibe is peaceful and practical — walkers' cars leaving early, families settling in for a long weekend, everyone here for the fells and the fresh air.

Orcabre is a lovely campsite that has become a firm favourite with our family. Pitches are great and theres a little on site shop that stocks esentials, should you need them. Its pretty close to Settle and Malham so we use it when we want to go to Janet Foss, Gordale Scar and Malham cove. Its a really nice family friendly site, with a football pitch directly in the centre of all the pitches so the kids can all play together. The shop is well stocked. Last time we went we even managed to get ourselves a wind breaker. They do sell hot food as part of the main building but we didnt try it as we had our trusty camping stove. The toilets are probably the best weve used, they are really clean and modern, theres plenty of them and showers are available to use with a 50p meter and are nice and hot. You can also get change for the showers at the shop. This campsite is well stocked for those campers, including myself, who enjoy camping but like a site that still had everything you need to have a comfortable stay. The people who run the site are really friendly and they even come out every night with a fire pit and wood you can buy, which is a real bonus, because who remembers to bring a firepit? Overall a great stay and wouldnt hesitate to book again :)
