One of the best touring caravan parks the Yorkshire Dales has to offer, Akebar Park is the most exceptional family-friendly park. We’re proud to have one of the best pubs in Wensleydale, ‘The Friars Head’, onsite. Not only that, but our stunning holiday park also boasts a golf course and great park facilities, making it one of the best parks in North Yorkshire.

Akebar Park has been run by the same family for over 50 years and is a family-friendly touring site, ideal for touring caravans and motorhomes, with plenty of space for children to enjoy and with outstanding views over the open countryside.

Akebar Park's touring site is a great space for your family holiday, offering grass pitches with electric hook-up, along with a well-equipped children’s play area. The touring field has toilets and showers, washing up areas and chemical waste disposal facilities. We have an onsite shop with basic supplies, and larger supermarkets are located within just a 10-minute drive from Akebar. What’s more, our staff are always on hand to help you have an amazing time – so it’s really no wonder that we’re considered one of the best holiday parks in Yorkshire!

We are an award-winning park and have been awarded the David Bellamy Conservation Gold Award by the British Holiday & Home Parks Association. The award shows that as a park we have taken steps to manage our land as a haven for wildlife; reduce our use of energy and water; reduce, reuse and recycle the waste we produce and support our local community. We have also featured in the Top 100 Sites in recent years.

All customers must report to reception on arrival, where we will be happy to check you in and let you know where your pitch is. Our wardens will be on hand to guide you and help you settle in. Our guests always enjoy their stay here, as we’re an ideal base for walking, cycling and fishing.

A Perfect April Getaway in the Akebar Park

Lukose, Shiril - 16/04/2026

We just got back from a break at the park, and honestly, it couldn't have been smoother. Even before we arrived, we knew we were in good hands, the staff actually gave us a ring on the morning of our check-in just to walk us through the arrangements. It was such a thoughtful, friendly gesture that really took the stress out of the travel day. The caravan itself (the Swaledale - 2 Bed Luxury) was spot on. Walking in, the first thing you notice is how fresh and modern everything feels. It’s clearly been fitted out recently; the kitchen was a total win with a proper hob and even an air fryer, which made quick meals a breeze. The layout was great for relaxing, too. Having TVs in both the bedrooms and the living area meant no one was fighting over what to watch, and the beds and towels were crisp and spotless. The shower and toilets felt more like a high-end hotel than a caravan.Huge thanks to the polite and professional team there, you made our stay feel special!

Lovely caravan

Carty, Angela - 10/04/2026

A lovely clean caravan that had everything we needed for a great holiday. A good location, there are lots of things to do in this beautiful area close to the caravan and lots more 1-2 hrs drive away. Staff were friendly and helpful and made us feel welcome. There's a nice little walk to finghall from the caravan site where you will find a lovely pub to eat at. There is also a cake shed outside the pub with a good choice of bakes to choose from you help yourself and post the money in the box ( there's a leaflet with a route at reception) photos below are from this walk.

Very friendly staff at the site, a beautiful new caravan and a pub restaurant we could all easily eat together in. The site is right out in the country and in March very quiet and peaceful. Caravan was very warm and has absolutely everything you need including an iron and toiletries.

5 stars all the way!

Souter, Rosella - 11/01/2026

Absolutely loved our stay here! The lodge we stayed in was spotless, warm and had all the essentials we needed for our 2 week Christmas stay. The family-friendly environment made it the perfect place for all the family to have fun and relax with easy access to local towns and beautiful walks. The caravan park is beautifully maintained, safe, and welcoming, with everything you need for a stress-free stay. The pub is a great place to relax and the food is delicious with a great children’s menu. We couldn’t fault it and would happily recommend it to anyone and have already done so! Thank you Akebar Park, we can’t wait to return!

Lovely stay & great accommodation

Watson, Marie - 13/11/2025

We had a great stay and were really pleased with the accommodation. The lodge was brand new and had all the facilities we needed including a coffee machine and airfryer which was unexpected. The hot tub was a real bonus and the kids loved it as did we. Added bonus was to have the Friers pub where we enjoyed a great bonfire night and a meal on the following evening. This is a real gem of a place! Also to mention that the lodge was spotlessly clean with complimentary toiletries and fluffy towels. Great value for money for what we felt was a 5 star stay.
