Liked: Excellent customer service, Joe kept us updated on the condition of the field as the weather was poor leading up to our stay. We had no problem with the access (camping in VW) and was so impressed with the facilities and how clean everything was. Beautiful location, just stunning views! We were so lucky to have the place to ourselves with just the sheep, horses and cows for neighbours! Despite the miserable weather, we had such a lovely weekend in this peaceful spot. Loved that there was a quick access up to the craggs which is a fab walk. We also walked to the pub in Lupton, which was a fairly easy walk but didn’t really rate the pub itself - expensive for lunch and the staff were more attentive to locals so would give that a miss next time we come.

Liked: The view, the quiet, the level well-groomed pitches, the simple clean facilities, the smallness and (mostly) the weather! Also liked the advice to approach from the south west. Lanes from the other directions are VERY narrow with very few passing places.
Disliked: No grumbles at all.

Non-electric hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch
Liked: My second stay this year. Brilliant site, although quite close to the motorway and an A road very rural and quiet. If you like waking up to cows checking out your tent or van over the fence, and sheep in the paddock next door you will love it. I stayed because I wanted to walk one of the three peaks in North Yorkshire, but it's very easy to get up to the lakes too, from this site. Joe the owner is a nice friendly guy and I'm already looking forward to getting back next year.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike at all.

Liked: We had a lovely week staying at this campsite. Amazing weather, amazing location. You staying in the meddle of nowhere and at the same time close to everything you need. Very peaceful place just an hour drive from Lake District. Public footpath that leads you on the top of the hill where you can see sea side and all the Cumbria 😊 At the campsite, well maintained eco loo. Showers with a hot water. Also shared gas cooker and fridge available at the washing corner. We had a pitch number 3 that was perfectly leveled. Cars not allowed next to the tent but parking spot is just a few meters away. And we think it’s a perfect decision as you won’t be hearing how someone slamming car doors :) also we are very happy that this campsite have their rules about the quiet hours 10pm-7am, and no music, so you can just listen cows, birds and sheep's 😊 make sure that you look up when it’s get darker and if it’s not cloudy you can see sky’s full of star ❤️ Joe was very friendly and helpful. We where provided with very clear instructions how to get to the campsite. From now it’s our top place where to stay when we are out to Lake District ❤️

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: My son and I stayed on this great site with excellent views towards Ingleborough in the distance and the immediate valley. We had pitch 3 which benefited from a nice level surface and uninterrupted views. It's a small site which was quiet and had easy access to the fells for walking. There was a viewing area in the cow sheds so we could watch the milking and they sold cheese and raw milk. The toilets and showers were clean and tidy, there is a communal fridge to make use of and hot water. The owner was really helpful and friendly. There is mobile phone signal but no charging points so make sure you bring a power bank.
Disliked: Need to take it steady getting to the site as the roads are extremely narrow. You'll need to set up your sat nav too, but it was with the wait.
