Luxury caravan parks in Ingleborough National Nature Reserve

The northern and western edges of the NNR are respectively flanked by Ribblehead (with a station on the Settle to Carlisle line) and Chapel-le-Dale. The station has a pub and café-cum-visitor centre, plus access onto the northern end of the NNR. To the southwest, however, Chapel-le-Dale has the area’s only campsite, another pub, and better access to the NNR’s western side and up to Ingleborough summit.

South of Ingleborough NNR is the area’s knockout scenery—picture the summit of Ingleborough wrapped in the expansive, crag-dotted moorland of Ingleborough Common. Potholes and caves riddle this speleologist’s heaven, while gaping Ingleborough Cave and White Scar Cave can be toured. Camp around Ingleton or Austwick to take trails running onto the common and then north onto Ingleborough NNR.

Enchanting Ingleton has long been accustomed to being a tourist draw. The fabulous walks to Ingleton Waterfalls visit several cascades that churn through steep-sided wooded valleys, while to the north, White Scar Cave is another attraction. Hikers can also head up onto barren Ingleborough Common and Ingleborough summit via the Pennine Way trail, and from here continue north or east to explore Ingleborough NNR. Campsites can be found close to the Ingleton Waterfalls trail and southeast of Ingleton.
