On Our Doorstep
Newbiggin
The closest village to the campsite is Newbiggin, where you will find a collection of farms, dwellings and holiday cottages. While the only services here are a public telephone box, Victorian letterbox built into the wall and a noticeboard, it is a lovely, peaceful circular stroll from the campsite and even has its own waterfall.
Thoralby
Just a short stroll away, Thoralby is a typical dales farming community. From here you can head off in various directions along footpaths and bridleways, or catch the bus to go further afield.
West Burton
Considered to be one of the most beautiful villages in the Yorkshire Dales National Park with a large village green and no through road. West Burton has much to offer visitors including a lively pub (with Sky Sports), children’s play area on the village green, a traditional family butchers shop, cat pottery and the much photographed and admired Cauldron Falls waterfall.
Aysgarth
Aysgarth is a popular village famous for its spectacular waterfalls, featured in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. Within easy walking distance from the campsite, it has pubs, cafes, an Edwardian Rock Garden, and a well-stocked general store with a post office.
