Campsites with swimming in North York Moors National Park

Ready to dive into wild swimming? North York Moors National Park is the spot, with over a dozen campsites that put you right by rivers, streams, or hidden forest pools. Pitch your tent where the air smells like heather and the water’s brisk enough to wake you up fast. Favourite campsites with strong local followings include Breaks Fold Farm Glamping & Camping (31 reviews), Dobella Lane Farm Certificated Site (9 reviews), and Dale Farm Holidays (5 reviews). Campfires are allowed, pets are welcome, and you’ll find toilets at most sites. You’ll pay around £41 a night on average, but some pitches start at just £9. Bring your suit and sturdy shoes—besides swimming, expect proper hiking and even horseback riding through the moors. Rubbish bins and basic facilities keep things tidy, but the real draw is plunging into cold, clear water with nothing but sky above.

Really well laid out site. Quite steep in places with rough ground but fine if you are mobile. Toilet and shower facilities are excellent, as is the wash up area with phone charging facilities and shared fridges. Fantastic base to explore the area, right next to the Thurscross reservoir.

Weekend Trip to Dobella Lane Farm Certificated Site

I found the campsite easy to find, Margaret is lovely. I camped in the orchard with my tent. I enjoyed my stay and I was made to feel welcome. There is one toilet there near to reception and portable water. I would stay again and recommend it to, Thank you Margaret 😀

A lovely place to stay for camping with the kids, even with the midges :). The toilets were immaculate and plenty of shower rooms. We had a mix up with our pitch (i thought i had booked an electric pitch but it hadn't went through on hipcamp), the owner was brilliant and very accommodating. I wouldn't hesitate to book again if we are down that way.
