We provide camping at two locations around the farmhouse hub facilities; a Certified Location Caravan & Camping Club site with hard standing for five units accessed through the Yorkshire Dales National Park Car Park, meadowland tent pitches for tents and trailers by the river and Dales Way footpath behind the farmhouse, and two comfortable camping pods.

The National Trust bought Heber Farm in 1994 to help preserve it as the last working farm in the village.

Tenanted by us since then, the farm keeps us busy with 600 sheep, plus cattle including a developing herd of Belted Galloways. As hill farming becomes less able to survive commercially in today’s economy the new herd provides a more viable breed, naturally equipped to live outdoors without the costs associated with indoor accommodation and feeding.

Garry is on the steering group for the Yorkshire Dales National Park looking at ‘higher nature farming’ practices as a means to long term sustainable farming methods that benefit the environment.

Highland Pod review

Lawrie, Catriona - 21/05/2023

4

This was a great place to stop while doing the Dales Way. It was easy to find, clean and a reasonable price. It might be useful to mention alongside the photos that none of the moveable items other than furniture are included - I assumed there were blankets until we checked.

2nd day camp on Dales Way (Ilkley to Bowness)

McCormick, Paul - 30/04/2023

5

Just over 15 miles from Appletreewick, the Buckden campsite was a perfect position for my second night on the Dales Way. It is a welcome sight at the end of the day in beautiful surroundings, with flat pitches, good wifi, well maintained and clean facilities.Very satisfying as an end of April quiet camp with the evening filled with the sounds of the birds and sheep.
