The thunder of Yorkshire's famous three-tiered falls echoes across this classic Dales campsite, where ancient woodland meets open meadow and the morning light filters through ash and oak along the River Ure. It's the kind of place where you wake to the sound of rushing water rather than traffic, with limestone scars rising beyond the hedgerows.
Perfectly positioned for walkers tackling the Dales Way or families visiting the spectacular waterfalls just a short stroll away, this North Yorkshire site puts you deep in Wensleydale country. The market town of Hawes lies westward, Castle Bolton sits northeast, and you're surrounded by classic stone-wall-stitched farming landscape that defines this gentler side of the national park.
Facilities keep things straightforward with toilets and showers serving pitches for tents, campervans and caravans. Open year-round, the site works equally well for summer explorations or winter wild-camping enthusiasts chasing that moody Dales atmosphere. Check about campfires on arrival. The vibe is unfussy and nature-focused—you're here for the waterfalls, the fells, and evenings spent listening to the river's constant conversation with the limestone.
