Akebar Park

4.1 (63 reviews)

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.

Pretty picturesque well kept park

Pittilla, Julie - 23/09/2023

Not so satisfied - pitch not good in terms of not level and right next to a graveyard. Toilets need updating and couldn’t find hand wash. Shower very slow to come on and get hot. A little unkempt around the toilet and shower block. WiFi very poor. Couldn’t contact night warden at all on our first night when needed to ask something. Satisfied - clean site overall, picturesque, friendly and good dog walking facilities. Pub is nice, although very expensive. Good location, with lots of places to visit in the area Leyburn not so dog friendly in shops. Hawes more dog friendly. Aysgarth falls worth a visit.

Campsite and pitch was great, not too busy or loud. Great restaurant and the park was good for the kids.The only downside would be the cleanliness and condition of the toilets and showers. With kids hanging round outside.
