Festival goers are very welcome, and the Creamfields Festival site is five minutes’ drive away. Please respect the quiet hours (no noise is permitted after 10pm) and environment, as the owners' home is on the grounds (and stick to the field's facilities only). No waste accepted onsite.

62km from Horton in Ribblesdale · 37 units · Tents, Motorhomes, Glamping · Toft Hill, England

How about a camping break with spectacular Durham Dales views? High Farm Holiday Park might well be the spot for you, a scenic, family- and dog-friendly glamping/ touring site. Restoring and recycling vintage items is a passion of ours and may examples of this can be found throughout the site including our showstopping /repurposed Railway Wagons – each one found around the local area and completely refurbished into cute and cosy mini lodges decked out with stylish wooden interiors. Set in the County Durham countryside on a family-run former dairy farm, the site also features developing woodland and wetlands with loads of amazing wildlife, and mown walkways for you to explore your surroundings. An on-site café, shop and board game library are also all available for your use. Open all year, the site is close to the market town of Bishop Auckland (10 minutes’ drive), with its wide range of shops, restaurants and pubs, as well as the woodland walks and art trails in Hamsterley Forest.

9. White House Farm Campsite, Wardlow

91%

(93)

108km from Horton in Ribblesdale · 61 units · Tents, Motorhomes · Wardlow, England

What a little Derbyshire gem: back to basics Whitehouse Farm Campsite is a simple site in a most scenic setting five minutes’ drive from the pretty village of Tideswell. The site’s central location in the Peak District National Park means it’s a top spot for those who want to ramble or ride bikes – several circular trails leave from Tideswell and the traffic-free Monsal Trail is a five-minute drive away. And there’s plenty more activity if you require it too, as activity centres nearby can sort you out days of horse riding, abseiling, climbing and caving. All this activity isn’t mandatory, of course – this is an equally fine location for days pottering off to local pubs, pigging out on pudding in Bakewell or taking a leisurely stroll around the Chatsworth Estate, 20 minutes away. And if even that’s too much, you’d be welcome to spend some time loafing about on site: there’s heaps of space here, and as facilities have been kept quite minimal (just showers and toilets) there should be a good serving of peace and quiet to go with it all. Guests are welcome to light up a barbecue or campfire for cookouts and keeping warm; Tideswell’s the place for supermarket supplies, and it’s also handily got a fish and chip shop and a couple of pubs for days when your firelighting skills aren't up to much.

4 nights at Butt Farm, Beverley

This was our 2nd time at Butt Farm, and it definitely won’t be our last. We love it. The pitches are a great size. When we first arrived our allocated pitch had a tent on it but was quickly resolved, we were given 2 pitches to choose from. There are a few bbq’s which you can borrow free and fire pits for £12 per night including wood, which I think is very reasonable. Plenty of instant hot water for washing up. Fridge and freezers free to use. Nice toilets/showers, again with plenty of instant hot water (and music playing while you shower 😍). Oh and very free range eggs (chickens are loose on the site) for £2 for 6!! Brilliant. It’s only about 40 mins walk into Beverley. There’s really nothing to not like about this site. Would highly recommend. Will definitely return.

Really nice campsite with good facilities. It was quite busy but it wasn't too noisy. Staff were friendly. I was on a hardstanding pitch and my only gripe was, the grass that we had allocated for the pitch wasn't really quite wide enough to secure my awning as well as I would have liked. The awning just about fit on. We had some sandwiches made by the guy in the cafe to take on our walk which were good. Lacking veggie options though.

I can not recommend Baystone enough. THE VIEWS ARE AMAZING! I was not expecting them from the pictures shown by stunning the wash facilties are clean and maintained access to onsite fridge and freezer. Good pitch sizes with fire pit. I will be back as soon as possible. Camp warden was lovely super friendly. I explained my dog prefers space and she was more willing to accommodate. The on lead rule is followed by all guests which was a reason I picked the sight. There is alot of live stock so your dog does need to be okay with horses and sheep around. Noise levels were quiet by 10pm every night. Cafe on site was lovely and have a small shop with some goodies avaliable (tecos 8 min drive away) beautiful beaches, peaks near by. I loved it

Luxury caravan parks near Horton in Ribblesdale guide

Where to go

Yorkshire Dales National Park

It won’t take campers who are visiting Horton in Ribblesdale any time at all to arrive in Yorkshire Dales National Park—the town sits right in the park. From hilltop views of Pen-y-ghent to Gaping Gill and 2,500 more underground caves to picturesque waterfalls like Cautley Spout—stunning sights and outdoor activities abound here. There are dozens of camping accommodations including private stone cottage rentals, rustic bunkhouses, and heated glamping pods with creature comforts like wifi and fully-equipped kitchens. Looking for a slightly more rustic experience? Try a private farm campsite or campervan pitch that offer full hookups and washroom facilities.

Lake District National Park

The refreshing waters of Wastwater in Lake District National Park are calling all campers. With 16 lakes to choose from, there are many options for swimming, boating, and fishing. After a day on the water, hike around Scafell Pike and book a site at a caravan park that offers full electric hookups and hardstanding pitches. Or find a grassy pitch for tents with picnic tables and laundry facilities. Opt for a little more luxury with a wooden camping pod rental featuring secluded outdoor space and a BBQ.

Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty

Less than an hour south of Horton in Ribblesdale, the Forest of Bowland AONB serves up excellent walking and cycling trails, wildlife watching, and dark skies for stargazing. Go off-the-grid while still feeling pampered with a lakefront canvas lodge vacation rental with a well-appointed kitchen, private outdoor shower, and hot tub. Other campsites within the area range from pet-friendly glamping pods with king-size beds and TVs to rustic campsites with grassy pitches for tents to public holiday parks that welcome caravans.

When to go

The weather in Horton in Ribblesdale is mild year-round. The shoulder months like April, May, and September are prime choices for quieter campsites and less populated trails. Spring also brings colourful wildflowers in the countryside and migrating bird species that nestle into the forests. While temperatures never fall below freezing in winter, the wet season, which runs from October through January, is still chilly. Cabin camping, caravan camping, and glamping in heated yurts are popular options during this season.
